PLUS: The disgrace of Donald Trump’s political rhetoric on MLK Day
Today, we remember Martin Luther King.
Abraham Lincoln and Martin Luther King were murdered by white supremacists nearly 100 years apart in events linked by an enduring American battle between an insidious malevolence and the rising tide of freedom.
Within these magnificent speeches and letters below are the story of American freedom and sacrifice that animated the lives of these two giants of freedom. Their words mark true brilliance and stand atop an American canon rooted in the moral thunderclap of the Declaration of Independence’s assertion that “all men are created equal…”
The disgrace of Donald Trump’s political rhetoric on MLK Day
With Martin Luther King Day and the Iowa caucuses falling on the same day, I discuss the national disgrace that is Donald Trump being the frontrunner for the Republican party in 2024:
Steve, I'm sorry, please, but you HAVE to stop saying that Ms Watts "put" the miscarried fetus in the toilet. She did not "put" the fetus in the toilet. A miscarriage at home induces the impression of needing to urinate, so the natural thing is to sit on the toilet. There is no way to keep the fetus from falling into the toilet. When you say that she put the fetus in the toilet, you imply that there is volition. There is no volition involved in a miscarriage.
Trumpler, am so sick of his image and sound emanating from every device, every channel. He’s a putrid, frothing, blistering, pustule of the ugliest, darkest underbelly of humanity.
We can’t ignore him; tried that. We must stare into the face of this dragon-monster. All of us, all responsible outlets, personalities, people, posters, commenters, whisperers... All of us must cover the grotesque train wreck of a human this slimy, shiny, orange-y, coagulation of hate, ignorance, stupidity, amorality, narcissism, bluster, bellicosity, stink, criminality is. The horror show must stop. November Bluenami -giant crashing blue wave.
And Joe, yep, he’s old. But if he’s in a coma he gets my vote over any fascist R on the ballot - all the way down to dog catcher.
Bluenami..!
