If there is empirical validity to the expression, “A picture is worth 1,000 words, Trump’s obligation as President to deliver a State of the Union address was adequately and accurately satisfied by his recent act in taking the wrecking ball to the East Wing of the venerable White House.
By “Mad Hatter” comparison, Trump’s two-hour rant can be described as an opium dream in which, under his tutelage, the Nation has been rescued from economic disaster and transformed into its systemic potential for international prowess and high regard. or, alternatively, a continuance of his systemic delusion and serial mendacity. The rant lasted almost two hours and left the listener wondering what Nation Trump was referring to.
It would be tempting to revisit the entirety of the delusional speaker’s articulated opium dream; however, we will leave that enormous exercise to the capable media and to the empirical criticism of the mainstream citizen.
What is most notable is the frightening dual alternative that: (1) Trump actually believes his grandiose cant, or (2) that he is cynically persisting in his lifelong practice of the sale of “snake oil.” Either alternative is alarmingly dystopian and frightening. The objective facts demonstrate the universal falsehood of Trump’s tactical braggadocio, marking him as a grifter-par-exellance or, alternatively, a delusional schizophrenic; neither is consistent with the appropriate context of a Presidential report to the Nation.
Because of its existential importance, we again restate our fervent plea that all Presidential aspirants be fully vetted before their right of nomination. The Democratic Republic is deservant, at the very least, of the prudent avoidance of another calamitous Donald J. Trump.
