All Dictators, Including Your Illegitimate President, are Mad with Power
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart
Power is mostly about control. It is also about pleasing
oneself while the masses suffer. Malignant Narcissist Donald John Trump takes
great pleasure knowing that his actions are harming America’s poor, especially minorities
and all non-Christians who are not pure white. 
Trump is enjoying his government shutdown. He has never been
and never will be a “working president,” but without all members of Congress in
session, even less is required of him. Thank you to the cowardly Speaker of the
House, Mike Johnson.
Trump continues to receive his salary and benefits, but the
most wasteful and excessive privilege is his use of Air Force One, and the
Secret Service, costing taxpayers millions of dollars for his personal enjoyment.
Trump is golfing incessantly. He recently returned from an unnecessary trip to
Asia, avoiding the demands to release the Epstein files, and seriously
addressing his government shutdown. He continues to party with his oligarchs at
his personal playpen, Mar-a-Lago. 
Recently, he enjoyed the reverie and adulation he received
during a Great Gatsby themed Halloween party inside Mar-a-Lago. Of course, as
you might expect, there was no one in attendance whose personal income was under
the category of “multi-millionaire.”
It was a disgusting display of opulence and a total lack of
empathy and concern for the millions of displaced working men and women
resulting from the Trump shutdown. Trump originated our new, national motto: “profits
before people.”
The major problem involves the Affordable Care Act. The
Republican plan is to remove most of the assistance for low-income and
impoverished Americans. Democrats are attempting to protect millions of
Americans, and help them maintain their necessary, life-saving healthcare. 
The mainstream media refuses to label Trump for what he has
become: a ruthless and self-centered dictator. I have news for them, and I feel
a responsibility to inform the American people of the truth. “If it walks like
a duck, and quacks like a duck, it must be a duck.”
Trump is nothing less than a selfish, hate-filled tyrant who
refuses to perform the duties of a President of the United States of America.
