Did a Red State Governor Kill Someone You Loved?
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart
Supporting Donald Trump’s moronic ideas and policies can
cost you your life. According to health experts, Trump is directly responsible
for at least 10,000 of the more than one million American deaths related to
Covid-19. Their allegations are based on the undeniable fact that the worst
president in history failed to take action in December of 2019 when he was
informed of an approaching healthcare emergency. He continued to ignore the
coming pandemic, telling the American people, “We are better prepared, and it
will just go away.”
Governors in red states took Trump’s words seriously and
failed to enforce suggested preventative actions to save lives issued by the
CDC.
“As many as one-quarter of a million Americans died simply
because their state governments refused to impose good public health standards.
They died as appeasements to the twin gods of ignorance and politics.” Daily

BEING UNAWARE OF FACTS IS ACCEPTABLE, BUT CHOOSING TO IGNORE
THEM IS NOT
I am not a member of the mainstream media, and therefore not
required to ‘play politics.’ The facts prove that Trump and his party did play
politics during the Covid-19 crisis. They chose to be ignorant, ignoring
science and the advice of healthcare authorities. They murdered American
citizens for political gain.
There will be deniers to my allegations. However their
denial is not founded on facts or even common sense. They simply don’t want to
know the truth. These are Trump’s people. These same people continue to believe
Trump’s big lie about the 2020 election, although there is not a shred of
evidence proving his allegations, and a plethora of facts supporting the final
decision from the Supreme Court.
“A BASKET OF DEPLORABLES”
During the 2016 campaign, Hillary Clinton labeled Trump
supporters “a basket of deplorables.” I don’t know if I would have been so
bold, but I cannot deny that the intent was valid.
It is unforgivable to deny irrefutable facts. It displays a
lack of intelligence, or just a refusal to use an underworked brain.
I never counted them, but I do know that I have written
hundreds of articles with Trump as the primary subject. This is why I am
troubled about the fact that the worst man in America continues to have
supporters. I have written about his many crimes, his many failures, his life
as a sexual predator, and his close relationship with Vladimir Putin, which
began in 1987. The fact that his loyalty to America’s biggest enemy supersedes
his duty to his country is unforgivable and disgusting.
LAST, BUT OF THE GREATEST IMPORTANCE
America is lacking common sense. It is easy to understand
why Trump cannot be allowed a return to the White House. Anyone with average
intelligence who looks honestly at what happened to our country between 2017
and 2021 could never vote for the worst president in our nation’s history.
Looking at the accomplishments of President Biden honestly
and with nothing more than common sense confirms that Trump was another failed
Republican president. Beginning with Reagan in 1981, and ending with Trump in
2021, the quality of life for the majority of the American people declined.
Clinton rescued our nation from the failed economic policies
of Reagan and George H.W. Bush. Obama saved our country from George W. Bush who
used the same failed economic policy. He also placed our nation in two costly
and unwinnable wars. And Biden reversed the failures of Donald Trump in just
three years. He saved lives and saved our economy.
Finally, one sad fact I never thought I would write about.
2024 is Trump’s third consecutive effort to win the White House. It is clear
that he is the best the right wing has to offer. As an Independent voter, this
makes me extremely unhappy. The once Grand Old Party is nothing more than a memory.
