Truck Fump

Christofascists have been wanting someone like Pence in the White
House and, until now, didn’t have a way to get one in. They know Trump
is easily manipulated and will change his mind with the wind if it makes
him feel more powerful and famous. Trump couldn’t care less about
policy, a fact he’s made quite obvious. The Right has given a tyrant
power and fame; he will do whatever they want him to do in order to keep
it. This way they can sneak Pence in on a piggyback while filling
Congress with even more evangelical conservative Republicans. Compared
to Trump’s abrasive and terrifying behavior, Pence seems much less
threatening. This is not the case. Pence has a proven track record of
legalizing discrimination and acting against women and marginalized
people. Those of us who didn’t leave the far Right are being elected to
federal positions or are taking over states and cities. With Pence in
office, even the reasonable-seeming incumbents – who have been and are
still at the mercy of the Tea Party – are growing more bold in their
attempts to further the Christofascist agenda: To Take Back The Country
For Christ.

So, to solve the problem, White House Inc. — created by Revolution Messaging,
the same company that worked on Bernie Sanders’ digital presidential
campaign — connects you to Trump in a different way: by calling his
businesses, the same ones the president isn’t divesting from, despite the fact that it may be illegal and unconstitutional
for him to hold on to them. The idea is that, since Trump is still very
much intertwined with his businesses, American citizens should be able
to share their thoughts and concerns with anyone at any of those
businesses and have that message communicated back to the President.

This president played to the ignorance and the base emotions of many
American citizens – those who voted for him, no matter why they voted
for him, bought the snake-oil he was selling. “I am the miracle cure,”
he steadfastly proclaimed, lacking little knowledge or evidence, and
then he called bullshit on the many people who cited sources claiming
otherwise. He was just up there crying “fake news!” at those who
disagreed with him, and voters totally bought it. Nothing seemed to
matter. Not  the expertise or experience of his opponents or his
critics, not the complicated nature of the problems and issues at stake,
not the risky side effects, not the inevitable consequences.

President Donald Trump’s team made little effort to consult with
federal agency lawyers or lawmakers as they churned out executive
actions this week, stoking fears the White House is creating the
appearance of real momentum with flawed orders that might be unworkable,
unenforceable or even illegal.
