Trump is an Ugly Man, Inside and Out, but His Georgia Mug Shot Exposes the Clown Inside

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart

 

No one with an average IQ has ever taken Trump seriously; he is not a serious man. He has never said anything of importance in 77 years. However, political cartoonists continue to create caricatures displaying Trump as a fool, a charlatan, and a buffoon for decades. He has no sense of humor, because humor requires intelligence.

Facts prove that nothing coming from Trump’s pie hole has impressed anyone with average intelligence. In fact, we reject his baseless lies and conspiracy theories. When he was arrested in Georgia last week and posed for his mugshot, he attempted to appear fierce. What a joke. Trump is a bully and all bullies are cowards.

Around the world Trump’s mugshot is creating laughter. Laughter at the picture itself, and laughter at the man beneath who continues to prove that he cannot be taken seriously.

Mark Hamill, a.k.a. Luke Skywalker, couldn’t resist commenting immediately.

“Wonder if he’s tired of winning yet,” wrote Star Wars actor Hamill, alongside the mugshot and the hashtag “#MAGAMugshot”.

Earlier that day, Hamill had also shared a quip punning on his Star Wars catchphrase: “May The Fourth Arrest Be With Him.”

Comedian Kathy Griffin, often a target of the right-wing, said the following.

“So they didn’t weigh him, that just asked him what his weight is. What do you guys think?” she asked, adding: “I hope you guys can appreciate that today MY phone is blowing up as if I am personally arresting Trump.”

Fellow comedian Rosie O’Donnell shared an image of a cap with the slogan: “MAGA: My a** got arrested.”

I’m sure millions of tweets will follow, but the truth is this single photo reveals an old, frightened man whose mental acuity is in steep decline. He has no defense for any of the crimes for which he has been indicted. He is guilty beyond all reasonable doubt.

I have a ridiculous but possible scenario. Because our government refuses to invoke the 14th Amendment, section three, although the minimal charge against him must be sedition, it is a possibility that Trump could win the 2024 election and lead our nation from one of several state or federal prisons.

Personally, I would find this fitting. The last eight years have been a debacle. The 2016 campaign season was embarrassing, but encouraged by the mainstream media. The election was illegitimate, and yet our government hid the truth from voters. From day one Trump violated the Constitution in multiple ways. His party became the party of hypocrisy, denouncing him prior to the election, but supporting his vile and unconstitutional agenda after his controversial victory in the Electoral College portion of our election. His failures were many, his successes, none. Late in 2019 he ignored confirmed information that a pandemic was coming, and he ignored it, claiming it would “just go away” until late March of 2020 when Americans began losing their lives in large numbers. Many of the more than one-million deaths are his responsibility, and his alone. In November of 2020, aware that he was losing in the polls, he began planning revenge for his biggest defeat. On January 6, 2021, he executed his plan to end our democratic government and become America’s first fascist dictator. Later, dozens of classified documents were discovered hidden in various places inside Mar-a-Lago. Trump and his attorneys lied. They claimed that all the documents had been returned. This is the same crime the Rosenberg’s committed and were put to death in 1953.

However, after all this, Trump remains a free man. He continues to lie and intentionally divide our nation, but no one in Washington has the courage to do the right thing.

Where is a presidential assassin when we need one? Just kidding! Or am I?
