Loquacious Liberty

She and I had been engaging in a back-and-forth debate on Election Day. Oh, I'd probably pissed her off by commenting on her “fuck trump” tweet. At least it started a dialogue. I brought up the freedoms we all enjoy as a pro-Trump argument. This was her response. I have all the freedoms I need. NEED! That was the key word. It was a fascinating insight into Liberal philosophy….as well as “a scathing indictment of the American educational system.” (Okay, yeah. I ripped that line off from Sheldon Cooper in The Big Bang Theory.)

 Pyrography Artwork By Lenora A few years ago, I worked in the IT department of an Italian-owned company. At Christmas, we always shut down and had an offsite company Christmas party. The CEO even flew over from Italy to give us a pep talk.
One year, at the end of his spiel, he meant to say “God bless America.” But it came out all wrong because of his Italian sentence structure. He mistakenly said, “Bless God, America.” But he was right! Bless God, America, for answering our desperate prayers by raising up a true patriot to be our next President. Bless God, America, for the Secret Service who willingly put their bodies between President Trump and a bullet. Keep him safe always! Bless God, America, for rescuing us from the hungry jaws of the New World Order. (Whew, that was close!)  Trump received a speaking fee. From a Russian Oligarch. $150,000. Quick! Fetch me my smelling salts!
According to the DailyMailUK, this “will open Trump up to similar questions” as Clinton faced for receiving $8.6 million in “donations” to the Clinton Foundation. Hold the phone. I spy with my little eye a double-frickin-standard. First of all, there's a slight difference between $150k vs $8.6 million. Trump received 1.74% of the amount Clinton received. Even if a conflict of interest is in question, I think President-Elect Trump has shown that he doesn't give a damn about anything except the wishes of the electorate. C'mon! The man is worth a cool $3.7 billion. The $150k is chickenfeed to him. Secondly, the donation to the Trump Foundation was given in 2015. Yes, Trump had announced his candidacy. No, he was not a public servant yet. He was still in the private sector. Thirdly, and I can hardly believe this needs to be articulated, Trump had nothing to give in exchange for the $150k except his time and talent. He had placed no classified state secrets on insecure private servers. He had no clout in the State Department for brokering sales of weapons. C'mon, DailyMail. To quote the Bible, you're “straining out a gnat and swallowing a camel.” Your allusion that this opens Trump up to “similar questions” as Clinton faced is laughably premature. Hello! No pay-for-play has occurred. If it does, then we'll talk. In the meantime, I cry double-standard!  Twice a week I write Narcissism Meets Normalcy, a blog devoted to all things about narcissism, narcissists and narcissistic abuse. So it came as a rude and horrible surprise to many of my readers when I publicly stated that I was pro-Trump, whom everyone recognized as potentially a narcissist.
Readers and Facebook friends left in droves screaming, "Lenora! How can you, of all people, vote for that, that, that narcissist, Trump!?" It's very simple. This election wasn't about feelings. It was about Freedom. C'mon, we were electing the CEO of the nation...not marrying the guy! I wasn't blind to his narcissism. In fact, I pointed it out in my article Two Perfectly Personality Disordered Candidates. I also called out Hillary Clinton as potentially a sociopath.  I had to laugh! This morning I awoke to the DailyMail headline of "Fuck Trump." It reminded me of a little fun I had on the Monday before Election Day.
{insert harp flashback music here} The game is called "Pissing With Libtards" and you play it on Twitter. This kind of fun probably falls under Larry The Cable Guy's prayer, “That ain't right. Lord, I apologize...and be with the starving pygmies in New Guinea. Amen.” But it sure is fun! And easy, boy, is it ever easy! All you do is type “fuck trump” in the Twitter search box. A list of all the tweets that say “fuck trump” pops up and you're in business. Tweet: fuck trump My Reply: “Your eloquence blinds me.” Tweet: fuck trump My Reply: Daniel Webster walks amongst us again. Tweet: fuck trump My Reply: Did you think that up all by yourself!? Tweet: fuck trump My Reply: And they said all great orators were dead. Tweet: fuck trump My Reply: Shakespeare couldn't have said it better.  It happened again! Oh I know HuffPost is wildly liberal. I know it's the bastion of fake news. But still...I was slightly surprised that their censorship even extended to a rather mild article entitled How Trump Won.
Now, don't get me wrong. I'm not complaining. It's become a game to submit articles just to piss with the HuffPost. To test the extent of their liberal bias. Their censorship. After so spectacularly projecting that Hillary would win with 98.1% of the vote and 323 Electoral Votes, I like the plumb the depths of their narcissism. To determine just how far they're willing to persist in their wrong-headedness rather than welcoming a fresh perspective. Answer: Pretty Damn Far Here's the funny thing. They were fine with offending 50% of society whey they published my article entitled Toxic Mothers Don't Deserve Your Time on Mother's Day. And they speedily pissed off fathers everywhere by approving Dad, Your Cruel Criticisms Still Haunt Me. Oh, did I mention that they were published on Mother's Day and Father's Day respectively? But dare to submit an article that's even an itty-bitty bit pro-Trump and you go the way of The Catcher In The Rye and The Grapes of Wrath. BANNED!  Yeah, that's right. They called me a bigot! And it pissed me off. But before I flew off the handle, I looked up the word, just to be sure I was getting mad for the right reasons. You see, I don't have much practice in being a bigot. It only happens every 4th year.
According to the Oxford English Dictionary… ˈbiɡət/ noun A person who is intolerant towards those holding different opinions Half a mo'! Now, what does tolerant mean? ˈtäl(ə)rənt/ adjectiave showing willingness to allow the existence of opinions or behavior that one does not necessarily agree with Therefore, a bigot would be properly defined as “a person who is not wiling to allow others to hold different beliefs or opinions.” Something along those lines But isn't that the very definition of a liberal? Yesterday, The Vulture printed an article quoting actor/musician, Michael Shannon, as saying, “There’s a lot of old people who need to realize they’ve had a nice life, and it’s time for them to move on because they’re the ones who go out and vote for these assholes...if you’re voting for Trump, it’s time for the urn.” Excuse me, but who the Hell is the bigot!?! He's wishing me and you dead, folks. Our vote for Trump deserves the Death Penalty, according to Mr. Shannon. We need to start walkin' that Green Mile.  It happened in Levittown, PA last night. A pizza parlor. Two robbers. Two staff and a customer put on the floor.
They screwed with the wrong guy. How were the thugs to know the customer they pistol-whipped was armed? How were they to know he could shoot straight? And did. He's a hero, folks. Hello! But will the crooked Mainstream Media give him his moment in the sun? Will they pat his back and give him an attaboy? Will they extol his heroism? Will they turn it into a wakeup-call to other thugs. What the Hell am I thinking!?! I should've known better than to expect anything better from the eye-of-Horus-sporting CBS affiliate in Philly. Instead, they're all hung up on whether the hero's gun was properly registered. Did he have a concealed carry permit? Grudgingly they admit that "it appears the customer was defending himself." Ya think!?! Here, Mainstream-Frickin'-Media, let me show you how it's done. Sit down, shut up and pay attention. Journalism 101 now in session. Your bias not only makes you poor journalists...it robs you of exciting angles.  So how did he do it!? How did Trump win? What did he do so right?
IMHO, it's really quite simple. First, he spoke to the pressing issues concerning John & Jane Doe. Obamacare. Jobs. Safety. Simple, basic needs. If the government insists on having their sticky fingers in those particular pies, then the American people expects them to get it right. Secondly, he understood what was going on, and I mean really going on. Oh, he doesn't talk about it much, but he's got his finger on the pulse of the so-called Conspiracy Theories. Let's just say that Alex Jones was the 61st person Trump called to thank after the election. He's "awake" and his crowds were "awake." No one really talked about it, but they knew. Most importantly, he went to the people. Whistlestopping...by private jet.  I said it before and I'll say it again: Hillary is a misogynyst. The worst kind of misogynyst: a woman who disrespects her fellow women.
They said I was nuts. They said I was bigoted. The Huffington Post refused to publish my original article about Hillary's misogyny. It wasn't the first nor the last article they politely rejected! According to the DailyMailUK, Hillary's personal post-mortem of her defeat concluded that Comey's 10/28 announcement swayed "white women, who...were on the fence until Comey's announcement pushed them onto Team Trump." 1, 2, 3, 4...Please God, give me patience! There's so much wrong with that, I don't know where to start! But I do know that there's only one woman responsible for Hillary's defeat: HILLARY herself! |

I love America as the Founding Fathers designed her more than life itself. And she's worth working, fighting and sacrificing. Here's my take on the election, President Trump and America, "a shining city on a hill." ArchivesCategories
