TRUMP EVENT ABOUT FEARS, NOT SUPPORT
Somewhere in the inner mind, beyond all the denial and self-deception, the id lays mortal, uncertain and afraid. It knows nothing for sure but it knows that it must pretend to be fearless, cocksure, and brazen. Yet betraying all the bluster with chants of USA! USA! USA! and cries about fears of brown and black who are Muslim, immigrant, and American. Long ago these terrified souls exchanged level reality with conspiracy theories, fabricated news, and misplaced hope in a thrice married New York City billionaire who carries a bible like some carry a condom. The enthusiasm was never about making America “Great Again.” It’s always been about fearing the future and embracing the past. The bitter clinging may have begun with a bible and a gun, but it will end when religious tribalism succumbs to the embrace of our common humanity. http://kgou.org/post/trump-supporters-rally-oklahoma-state-capitol
