We Are More Than Our Politicians

It is an unsavory taste in the mouth, local politics, especially in North Carolina.  Gerrymandered voting districts favoring Republicans were just re-drawn reinforcing their original deceit.  Trump appointed judges continue to do his bidding seemingly ruling the country from Mar-A-Lago.  (or currently from the defendant's table in a New York lawsuit for business fraud)  Does this sound familiar?  President Joe Biden has not surfaced, and the Don is spewing threats from the side lines.  It is not a double edged sword.  It is simple.  The media continues to report that Donald Trump is the front for the GOP nominee in the 2024 Presidential campaign.  Whence their polls come no one knows.  This is not certain, but the mainstream media continues to report it.  Who are Trump's opponents?  There is a debate tomorrow evening.  We know a few names.  The Governor of Florida, Ron DeSantis.  (two mob bosses vying for control of the rackets)  Chris Christie.  A former Governor of New Jersey and a prosecutor.  Nikki Haley.  Former Governor of South Carolina and Ambassador to the United Nations.  (South Carolina is as red as North Carolina, and their Senator is Lindsey Graham)  Vivek Ramaswamy.  Pharmaceutical company Chief Executive Office.  (Big Pharma has proven their worth and value addicting Americans to opioids and making their fortunes on Covid vaccines)  Tim Scott.  Senator from South Carolina.  (pawn of the Koch Empire - minus one)  If Donald Trump is the front runner, then those continuing to don red feathers support him as well.  Do they?  Does the North Carolina Legislature continue to back Donald Trump in spite of his traitorous insurgency at the U.S. Capital?  Inquiring minds would like to know.  This is an important questions in lieu of Republican's illegal gerrymandering in North Carolina.  They  diligently are working trying to provide themselves an unfair advantage in future elections.  Recently Tricia Cotham was coerced to defect from the Democratic party delivering a G.O.P super-majority who continue to overturn gubernatorial vetoes.  Roy Cooper has been rendered a sitting duck.  While the governor continues to whore out North Carolina to the Department of Defense and other big spenders (supersonic air travel), Chemours is shipping tons of PFAS from the Netherlands to Cumberland Country for "disposal."  The Cape Fear River is laden with forever chemicals up to Jordan Lake.  It is in the entire water table.  The DEQ is a bureaucratic construct side stepping real issues.  It is jobs for friends.  We must understand that those who continue to feign Republican, at the behest of the media, continue to support the ex Commander and Insurrectionist.  It would be wise to shift Republican support to a more viable candidate.  Highly it is likely that Mr. Trump will be convicted of crimes.  All ready he has been found guilty.  To continue to support him markedly and staunchly declares that you are a supporter of an American traitor.   Never before have I felt the need to stand up for and protect American sovereignty, until now.  There is more to life than the hand that feeds you.  If we are human, then we are tasked with acknowledging and caring for our fellow citizens and countrymen.  This is what a nation is.  Donald Trump has split America into a primitive, barbaric, tribal factions, and with the demise of public education and regulations of corporate emissions, drugs have infiltrated our daily perceptions and responses.  We are being manipulated into violence for the sake of our own control.  Resist.  Wise up.  Find your center.  We all want the same things.  How did it become the metaphor of Biden versus Trump?  The fabric, integrity, and humanity of Americans is far deeper than these two men.
