If You
Don’t Like What You See, Then You Need To Vote!
This article goes to every registered voter in America. If you are not registered to vote by now,
it’s already too late.
If you’ve already voted through absentee ballots or early voting (if your state allows it), then, thank you. I’ve done so as well.
But for the rest of you who are eligible and registered to vote in
America, you need to pay attention to what I have to say.
I’m not going to give you the lie that liberals and progressives and the
media always say about “this is the most
important election ever, and this time we really, really, really mean it”
because that is an outright lie. *Every*
election is important! Every single one
of them! So to say that this election is
important, when the exact same thing was said in every previous election is
just disingenuous.
But I will tell you that this is your opportunity to do something about
the madness and the insanity that the GOP-dominated tyranny and a narcissistic
self-professed nationalist president have been imposing on America and the
world. You can’t control what Narcissist
Donald Trump and his gang of fascistic GOP sociopaths do while in office, but
you do have this one opportunity to change who stays in office. And that only comes through your vote.
There has been a lot that has been going on since Narcissist Trump won
the White House that has been an embarrassment.
Whether he is throwing tantrums on Twitter or acting like a petulant
child in front of European leaders, or sucking up to tyrants while attacking
our allies, or voiding all sorts of treaties just so he can supposedly
“renegotiate” them, or invoking trade wars that
are already being felt in our economy, or bullying
members of his own cabinet like a third-world dictator, Narcissist Trump has
been pissing on everything his White House predecessors have built and
established. And he’s done so with no
fear whatsoever of reprisals, because he knows that the sociopaths in the
GOP-dominated legislature will do nothing to stop him. Not one goddamned thing. They are afraid of him and of his cult
followers.
But while Narcissist Trump’s tenure is not up for a vote this time
around, the sociopaths in the GOP-dominated legislature are. And in Narcissist Trump’s eyes, it is still
all about him. He believes that *he is* the
GOP, and that it is an extension of him.
So I will make this as simple and as direct as I can…
If you do not like what Narcissist Trump and his acolytes and the
sociopaths in the GOP have been doing, then you need to vote.
If you don’t like how Narcissist Trump is waging trade wars at
the expense of our economy, then you need to vote.
If you hate that Narcissist Trump sucks up to tyrants like Vladimir Putin
and Kim Jong Un and behaves like a schoolgirl with a crush on them, then you
need to vote.
If you object to Narcissist Trump’s endless assault on journalism,
calling them “enemies of the people” and being complicit in the assault on the
press, including the physical
assault on one American journalist and the
brutal murder of a US resident journalist, then you need
to vote.
If you are furious at the news that a diehard Trump supporter just
tried to murder all of Trump’s political enemies through mail bombs,
then you need to vote.
If you are furious that a self-professed nationalist just
slaughtered eleven people in a synagogue on October 27th
because he hates immigrants and refugees just like Narcissist Trump, then you
need to vote.
If you are furious at the wave of hate and open bigotry that is bubbling to
the surface ever since that self-professed nationalist Narcissist Trump came
to power, including some of the most recent and
blatant forms of racist aggression, then you need to
vote.
If you are angry at how the GOP steamrolled-in Trump’s appointees after
spending eight years committing
open acts of insurrection, then you need to vote.
If you hate that Brett Kavanaugh is now a Supreme Court justice and how
that came about, then you need to vote.
If you hate the various efforts committed by members of the fascistic GOP
to suppress
your vote and to deny
your right to vote, then you *really* need to vote.
If you are disgusted by the blatant and rampant hypocrisy being committed
by the supporters of Narcissist Trump, holding him blameless for the things
that they have crucified others for in the past, then you need to vote.
In short, let’s get brutally honest here… if you do not like what has
been going on in the past two years, then you need to exercise your right and
your responsibility as a registered and eligible voter and vote for change. That is your duty as an American.
No march will change things. No
number of pink caps will change things. No
hashtag will change things. No letters to
the newspapers will change things. No
amount of protests will change things. No
calls to your local officials will change things like voting will.
Do not listen to what “the polls” say.
The polls lie! The only polling
that matters is the ballot box!
Everything else is nothing more than fantasy politics. Never trust what you hear about those polls,
especially when it is favorable to your candidate. The only reason you hear about those other
polls is to either scare you into voting or to lull you away from voting.
And, yes, the Democrats are horrid.
But are they that bad that you would allow what Narcissist Trump and the
sociopathic GOP have been doing to go on?
Because what you’ve been seeing now is far from the worst. There is no “bottom” when it comes to
narcissists or sociopaths. There is no
concept of “bottom” with those kinds of people.
You only have to look at world history to know just how far down things
can still go.
You’ll notice that I haven’t addressed the Trump supporters at all. Do you know why? Because they already know the importance of
voting! Not only do they know it, but
they’ve been voting all this time. Every
election. Primaries, caucuses, mid-term
elections, local elections, every single one.
It’s the rest you that haven’t. It’s
the great unwashed that just don’t “have the time” or “don’t know” or “don’t
care” that gave way to Narcissist Trump and his cohorts.
It is the apathetic majority that have become the silent accomplices to
what Narcissist Trump and the sociopaths in the GOP have been doing. You are Trump’s greatest weapon, because he
expects you to still not give a damn and still not vote on Election Day.
So, after what you have seen for the past two years, if you are still not
motivated to do the one thing that will voice your objection to the actions of
Narcissist Trump and the sociopathic GOP, then you are complicit in their
activities. You are allowing things to
go on as they have been, and you are giving these people permission to go even
further.
And if you don’t like what I’m telling you, then vote anyway! Just remember that what happens after
Election Day is on all on you. The world
is watching, and history will judge us all.
I did my bit. I carried out my
responsibility. Can you say the same?
