The Selfinvested Boss

Straight from the New York Times,
The Macho Appeal of Donald Trump:
We saw him being a boss

A take charge kinda' narcissistic guy;
just the kind of win/lose business capitalist
to Make America Even More Competitive Again,

Especially if you have always enjoyed
StraightWhiteMale privilege

And never sworn to defend
a democratic health care agenda
for the well-being of all the people
and plants
all over the planet
at all times,
in all federally-associated
and invested places,
sacred spaces.

Others saw and heard
a self-invested capital-privileged
narcissistic Boss,
of an old
and extremely tiring supremacist vintage,
who never could be a successful multicultural business manager
in the private sector,
much less a successful multicultural democratic facilitator
of public health and safety information
in our nation's
and our regenerative Earth's
best and brightest 
cooperatively facilitated eco-political
resiliently robust interests.

Would you want him to be your boss?
Your dad?
Your teacher?
Your preacher?
Your mental and/or physical health care provider?
Your economic prophet?
Your family's political co-empowerment advisor?
Your banker?
Your fearless leader
so full of fear
of anyone
not a wealthy 
hopelessly secular and profane
competitive real estate marketer
and straight white male privileged owner
like him?
