Blogpost # M. 366 A TALE OF TWO COUNTRIES*

It is painful to recall the violent Trump-inspired insurrection against the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. We have amply described Donald Trump, the exotic President of the United States, based on his egoistic, propagandistic, and notably, unsupported assertion that the results of his election loss to Joseph Biden were the product of election fraud. The violent riot was eventually recalled by Trump, but not before serious injuries were inflicted, damage to precious historical property, and the tragic homicide of a Capitol policeman. As an authoritarian act of illegal and sociopathic injustice, Trump, subsequently as President, shamefully, the instigator and director of the criminal insurrection, pardoned the wrongdoers with shamefully obscene commendations for their loyal service.

Donald Trump, ultimately, was not punished for his colossal act of unconstitutional and immoral criminality, but, bizarrely, was, instead, successful in the following Presidential election.; empirically enabling him to neurotically apply the disgraceful taint of fascistic autocracy to America’s systemic, humanistic democracy. At the time of this writing, he has been actively and perversely employed in an autocratic effort to exact his promised retribution on his political opponents, most notably the dedicated governmental officials who, dutifully, have attempted (but failed) to bring him to his deserved justice.

It is historically and morally embarrassing to contemplate the factual realitty of the glaring historical dissonance between our Nation, the avowed and recognized “avatar of democracy,” and crusader-in-chief for human equality and justice, and the recent response of the government of Brazil, relative to that Nation’s contrasting response to the occurrence of an analogously seditious and illegal insurrection.

Donald Trump has trotted out his personal, neurotically soiled catchphrases of “witch hunt’ and “stolen election,” notwithstanding which Brazilian justice has appropriately sentenced the Trump-like, immoral autocrat to 27 years in prison.

We have recently switched to drinking Brazilian Coffee to offset Trump’s outrageous, illegal, and notably, infantile, imposition of punitive tariffs on Brazilian imports.
