Donald Trump’s hold on the Republican Party will be on full display this weekend at CPAC in Orlando, Florida as allies are already showing their loyalty to the former president ahead of his Sunday speech.
Trump’s continuing claims of election fraud make a mockery of our democracy. Conspiracy theories appear to be his stock in trade to leading the GOP off a cliff.
The gold plated statue of Trump is the equivalent of idolatry. Trump’s followers seem to believe he is a messiah. Trump made lots of promises but never accomplished most of his goals. His impact seems the equivalent of Jim Jones who led 900 people to their death.
Trump promised everything but delivered very little.
He did not create a better health care system.
He did not make the United States independent of products supplied from other countries.
He did not bring back millions of lost manufacturing jobs.
He did not end hatred of minorities.
He did not stop the spread of the COVID-19 virus.
He did not eliminate the $19 trillion national debt within eight years by “vigorously eliminating waste, fraud and abuse in the federal government, ending redundant government programs and growing the economy to increase tax revenues.”
One thing he did do was create a more divided country that has encouraged white supremacists to thrive and believe the election was stolen. That is too bad because he had many good ideas that really would make America a better country.
