Life With Trump Xviii

If loving how Donald doth rule Did you worship bullies at school? The wealth off our backs Will pool at Goldman Sachs While you fools and mules are his tool! Author's Note: It is evident that Mr. t-rump loves profits (even at the expense of the environment). Profits generally flow to the rich, and we expect to see more stratification in our society soon. Look carefully at what he is doing. Blaming immigrants for our troubles, creating distractions, and making sure the rich (he and his buddies) get richer. He has no idea how most of us live and work hard to make an honest living nor does he care.

It seems odd that people are looking to the selfish to be generous.

What the selfish big wigs don't understand is that there will be no escape from ruination for them if the planet is destroyed. So I say, even out of selfishness they should be willing to share more of what they have. Greater fairness should reign. However, it seems it will take a revolution to make this happen. I thought the failing banks should have been nationalized rather than bailed out 8 or 9 years ago. We missed a big opportunity for fairness then. Now the same people are back with no humility.

I only imagine that you are one of the kindest and most wonderful people on this earth. Am I putting you on a pedestal? Yes, but that is what male poets do to our lady friends. I love the way you compose. I cannot help being fond of the talent you have. I am coming up on 40 years of marriage with my dear wife. She is a neat person but does not appreciate poetry that much. We are a great team, and fortunately I am allowed to read the poetry of others and take joy in it. Your mind is a fabulous exploration and you are a gift for everyone here.

Yes, and he has declared war on the normal press which safeguards us. There is going to be trouble in paradise. I am an internationalist. I think that we should be willing to make sacrifices to help remedy the worst things in the world. I like my life and think we should do this out of selfishness (myself first) just so that we can survive and enjoy life. "America First" will be the end of us.

- Great written, Duke - I share your thoughts ... - He loves to bully ... but tolerates no resistance - He is a big ugly child - Serves lies and falsehood - He says "Everything for America" .... but I think he means " Everything for my own family .... and my friends "..... - it is simply the media that printer error words on paper - hugs // Anne-Lise :)
