Another Photo Op, and Another Display of Hypocrisy

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart

The date was June 1, 2020. Trump decided to march from the White House to St. John’s Church for the sole purpose of obtaining a photo op to distract his followers from his failing attempt to win reelection. To reach St. John’s Church, he had to walk through Lafayette Park. A crowd of protestors filled a large part of the park. Trump called in members of the National Guard to lead the procession, and armed them with rubber bullets and tear gas. His plan was successful and an embarrassment for all Americans. Once again, our military was forced to attack peaceful citizens exercising their First Amendment rights for political reasons. Never forget Kent State.

The hypocrisy in this picture was the photo itself. Trump stood in front of St. John’s holding an upside-down Bible. He has seldom, if ever, seen the inside of any church. He is not a Christian.

TRUMP MAKES A FOOL OF HIMSELF IN THE MOST FAMOUS RESTING PLACE OF OUR NATION’S FALLEN SOLDIERS

On Monday, August 26, 2024, Trump repeated this fiasco, this time focused on our military who gave their lives for their country, who Trump refers to as “losers,” and “suckers.” However, desperation can force most people to take moronic actions, and speak defensively when they are pushed into a corner. Trump’s life is filled with tales of being a loser. This time he could be losing what remains of his pitiful life. There are a sufficient number of criminal charges facing the orange buffoon to force him into spending the remaining years of his life behind bars if he loses the election and the ability to pardon himself.

Trump could be facing charges for assaulting an Arlington Cemetery employee who was enforcing the policy forbidding taking pictures of the gravesites. For Trump, this was just another photo op. He pushed the man out of the way while attempting to do his job.

You might remember his first overseas trip after his inauguration, and the video which showed the arrogant old man pushing his way in front of other world leaders for a better position in the group photograph.

Trump lacks self-respect and therefore respects no one else.

EVERYTHING YOU THINK YOU KNOW ABOUT THE OBESE OLD MAN IS A LIE

If you know Trump as I do after following and researching him for the last nine years, you are aware that he is an empty biological vessel, void of any substance which might make him a human being.    

Trump has no concern about anyone other than himself. Recently we learned that he refers to his most loyal supporters as “basement dwellers.” No one on the planet is more unfit to wear the title of President of the United States.

The only way to describe Trump’s 78 years on this planet is an illusion. He created a façade, playing the role of a billionaire and a successful businessman. He is neither. His life is a composition of lies, and an image created by his efforts to hide the real Donald Trump.

DESPERATE FOR RELEVANCE AND CREDIBILITY

Trump has been diagnosed as a malignant narcissist. Once again, here is the definition.

Malignant Narcissist: “Malignant narcissism is a personality type that causes extreme narcissism, aggression, and, sometimes, abuse of others. A person may use manipulative means or violence to enhance their own sense of wellbeing.”

Trump’s greatest fear is the truth, because the truth would expose his desperate need to be relevant. He must always be the most important person in the room.

Fact: those closest to Trump will admit that Trump does not want to be your president. What he does want is what the presidency offers him. For four years he used taxpayer money to enjoy the benefits offered to legitimate billionaires. The television cameras were always on him, although he never had anything of importance to offer the American people.

Let’s be totally truthful here. Trump is too old, totally unqualified, and has no interest in serving all 330 million Americans. He is not fit to be our president: never was and never will be.
