Between The Lines — Pretexts Laid Bare

If your intentions for America are so great, then…

Explain it to me. Make me understand. Convince me that you’re right. And do not dismiss me out of hand.

• Why is absolute loyalty to you above the Constitution paramount? What ill intentions do you have that moral principles or oaths to the Constitution would violate?
• Why are sycophantic, unscrupulous incompetents always your preference for cabinet and other positions of power and sway? Do your ill intentions necessitate their ilk, who are disposed to crossing moral boundaries and violating social mores, unlike altruists?
• Why malign and suppress the 4th Estate? What ill intentions do you have that make accountability a liability?
• Why so doggedly and undeservedly pursue, at the exclusion of all else, your critics and those bound by the rule of law and their nation’s conscience to prosecute your crimes against humanity? Is your fragile narcissistic ego worth all of the DOJ and justice systems' man-hours, the millions of dollars, and disrupted lives so far?
• Why pardon, commute, and vacate the sentences of past loyalists who have either pled guilty or were righteously convicted by a jury of their peers of crimes of your behest? What ill intentions do you have that may again require their unfettered availability and attention?
• Why such propensity for grift, graft, and overt kleptocratic conduct? The magnitude of your ill-gotten gains through the fleecing of America and Americans by kleptocracy, tariffs, and topsy-turvy taxing is only exceeded by your complete lack of shame for your egregious acts against the people and government you were entrusted to protect and preserve.
• Why pander to every conservative, far right, ultra-far right group, and evangelists' wishes, whose baser instincts are to support anyone, regardless of their purported agenda, merely to secure their singular desire? Was your actual malintent of pure self-enrichment at any cost too radical for these, or any groups, so that you couldn’t simply lay out your agenda for all to judge up front?
• Why create constant chaos? Your unmitigated hubris, petulant, and impulsive fascist behaviorisms require constant diversions to distract from all of your kleptocratic-inspired and perverse shenanigans, malfeasance, and dalliances.

I’m Just Saying Is All !

Words can often confuse and confound, So mull them over and roll them around. Like marbles, unsure of where they’re bound, We’re all just searching for level ground.
