Hello everyone, thank you for tuning in. It's Friday, and this is episode number 236. Today, we're going to talk about Donald Trump and what he represents. It's been a while since I've said anything about him, but today, we're going to make up for lost time.
Before we dive into that, let's have a little history lesson. We're going back to the 70s, to the time of Richard Nixon, or as we used to know him, Tricky Dick. Nixon resigned from office over a little incident called Watergate. At that time, he was seen as the Antichrist by the youth of the early 70s. But, considering the politicians we've had since then, I'd almost be happy to have Nixon as president again.
Fast forward to the Bush era, and we thought we couldn't possibly have a president more stupid than Bush number two. But then came the Obama administration, which was intelligent but lacked integrity. And now, we have Donald Trump, who represents a big club of politicians who take care of one another because it's in their collective best interest.
Trump is facing charges of witness tampering, obstruction of justice, tax fraud, bank fraud, insurance fraud, money laundering, campaign finance corruption, rape and libel, election tampering, and incitement of a deadly insurrection to overthrow the U.S government. If any regular citizen faced even one of these charges, they would be in jail. But Trump isn't in jail. Why? Because he's part of the business, the mob business.
When you're making mobsters money, you're good. But when you become a liability, there's big trouble for you. Trump knows a lot of people and a lot of stuff. He can name names, and they don't want him to name names. So, it's a standoff.
Trump is not going to prison. He might get a pardon, like Nixon did, and waddle off into the sunset. Or, he might have a very unfortunate premature exit from the living. But one thing is for sure: his fate is not decided by democracy, but by the plutocrats and oligarchs who actually control things.
Until next time, this is Ernest Man reminding you that there are no bad words, just bad actions.
