This Carbon Based Life

By David Glenn Cox

It has long been established that Donald John Trump is the Goddamnest liar and thief ever to come down the muddy pike. A man absolutely devoid of any moral scruples whatsoever. A man so heinous as to embarrass pirates and road agents. But when mental sickness takes over, it’s difficult to discern because he’s always been like that. A perpetual liar, never, ever, ever to be believed or trusted even on a good day! No matter how small or insignificant the lie might appear to be.

Mr. Trump told a gaping audience yesterday that he was pulled from the wreckage of the World Trade Center by two large first responders. It was a despicable and horrendous thing to say. It was also patently untrue and an abomination to the memory of the actual 911 victims. But by now we should understand. Everything! Every goddamned, blessed thing on this gooey mud ball has to be about Donald John Trump. He has to hijack every ceremony. He can’t let the focus be on someone else, even for just a minute.

You know…veterans are suckers. He likes heroes who don’t die for their country. Boy, I bet if he’d gone to Vietnam, we probably would have won. Think of the brewing evil madness percolating inside that corrupted rotting cranium.

Canada is on the cusp of canceling the rest of the 88 F-35 fighter jets. A contract worth tens of billions of dollars and thousands of jobs. Do you think he cares or is at all concerned by it? The little trolley has slid off the track forever. He believes he was rescued from ground zero, and you can’t change his mind about it. The video footage exists of Donald Trump entering the area of ground zero in a blue suit, and a crisp white shirt and a tie. Do you think he understands the customers he drives away today, will never ever return? Canada will never purchase another fighter jet from the United States as long as the grass grows and the river flows.

Oil has reached $100 a barrel on its merry way to $200. Do you think DJT cares? He’s living inside of a fantasy world where nothing is his fault, and everything can be made right with a Sharpie and another executive order. He can change the weather! He can rename states and Great Lakes arbitrarily. Last week, on September 1^st, Mr. Trump was asked about using nuclear weapons against Iran. Trump snapped at the News Nation reporter, calling him “stupid” for asking. What exactly is Mr. Trump’s promise worth?

Trump’s speed and sudden anger at being asked the question tells me it has most likely already been considered and the News Nation reporter was in trouble for telling secrets he knew he shouldn’t be talking about. What are the boundaries for a malignant narcissist? What are the boundaries of a malignant media? The mentally defective and morally bankrupt president spews heinous and reprehensible lies, and the media says nothing about it. Like a mother cat licking up the shit of her young. They also lie who withhold the truth. They become his accomplices and are just as responsible for the results as the mental defective.

A full majority of the monetized mendacity media refused to carry Trump’s 911 victim story. Some did report the event once and then quickly dropped the story as if they had been ordered to drop it. The President is insane! Shhh! Don’t ever mention that. He keeps the billionaires taxes low, and that’s good enough!

But by clear and demonstratable yardsticks, Donald John Trump is destroying our nation. Trump sent his bagmen Kushner and Wykoff to Moscow and Kiev at Putin’s request. They left both capitals empty-handed because Donald Trump’s word is worth NOTHING! NATO is alienated, Canada is alienated, Mexico is alienated. And Mr. Trump wants to declare all of North America as American territory. And the media says nothing! As if this is all completely normal. As if all American Presidents do it. Trump’s voluntary war with Iran is expanding into new targets. Shhh! Pay no attention! Everything is just fine and dandy! Peachy, so just shut the hell up!

We are on a clock, and as the time ticks down, there isn’t enough oil coming out of the Gulf to be sustainable. Sooner or later, unless this war ends quickly, there will be an oil shortage and real trouble. Through Trump’s bellicose bungling, American products are more expensive and available in fewer markets. The farmers are catching the old one, two. First, Trump undercut the price of American beef to shore up the Argentine peso, then added 50% tariffs in retaliation for his trade war on Canadian fertilizer. Trump spouts, “We don’t need them!” Maybe Trump doesn’t need them, but the farmers sure do. He has single-handedly destroyed their livelihood. Just as he is destroying the aircraft industry.

And the moron media dummies say what? What?

The glorious media murderers want to talk about hockey sticks. “Ha, ha, ha! Hockey sticks!” That twenty billion dollars in annual trade is all just a big joke! Gosh, that’s sure is a lot of hockey sticks! Ha, ha, ha! The stability that once made American treasury bills the gold standard are beginning to look elsewhere. You can tune into the financial channels and they will cock their heads curiously. “Gosh, we don’t know why it’s happening all of a sudden for sure. Scott Bessent tells investors, “I am the house now.” And warns traders not to bet against the yen. “You vill comply, or else!”

Mr. Trump readies himself for his vanity convention. A made for TV bullshit spectacular! A pretend TV convention to appease a crazy man trying to relive his past glories. The convention has everything! A stage and signs for each state delegation. The convention only lacks one thing, an actual purpose besides pandering to an aging, insane blowhard. This is how the Republicans hope to save themselves in the midterms with a fake party convention and a dangerously insane blowhard. The entire event would be impossible if not for the kind assistance of the cooperating, corrupt media.

If Adolf Hitler had survived the war the allies would have surely hung him. But it should be remembered they would have also hung the propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels right next to him, on the same scaffold. The liars and mender benders of the truth are just as guilty as all the other criminals.

 “Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,

Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,

To the last syllable of recorded time;

And all our yesterdays have lighted fools

The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!

Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player,

That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,

And then is heard no more. It is a tale

Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,

Signifying nothing. – Hamlet
