Sane-Washing towards Fascism: Traitor Trump continues to shit all over wounded Veterans

 It's a non-stop fact that Trump loves to insult Veterans and loves to dismiss and diminish the sacrifices they've made for the United States.

I've written many times on why this is;  Trump is a cruelly transactional thief who views everything in the lens what he's getting for himself and what he's getting over you.

I vainly thought that Trump shitting all over Medal of Honor recipients would be enough for the corporate media to call him the shameless gutless worm he is. 

I naively thought when Trump was grinning his rictus grin while stomping all over Arlington National Cemetery giving the thumbs up over the graves of men and women far braver than he, the corporate media might have said enough is enough.

I stupidly thought when Trump was gleefully using the grief of families who've lost loved ones in the phony Republican War on Terror the corporate media might remind America how Trump callously dismissed the families of the US Special Forces whom he sent into Niger without a plan, without a QRF, with no hope and then shrugged and told the families this is what they signed up for...

So, now that Iran has apparently hacked his campaign and maybe issued a fatwa against him, Trump and his cabal of treasonous surrogates have no shame and no compunction in blaming it all on soon-to-be President Kamala Harris. 

As War Criminal Benjamin Netanyahu continues to escalate violence and tension in the Middle East, hoping to provoke a major conflict and force President Biden and the U.S. military to intervene and invade Iran the same way Netanyahu lied and coaxed George W. Bush and Dick Cheney to invade Iraq, I figured the corporate meida might point out how Trump cruelly dismissed the injured Soldiers who were bombarded while he was in Office after Trump wanted to show what a big strong man he was by blowing up an Iranian General.  

And then... and then Trump merely did it again.

Look at him smirk and shake his head as he downplays soldiers injuries.  Then he goes into his canned answer of the bombs never hit the "fort"...

“What does ‘injured’ mean?” he said. “You mean because they had a headache? Because the bombs never hit the fort... None of those very accurate missiles hit our fort. They all hit outside. There was nobody hurt, other than the sound was loud."

There was nobody hurt...  unlike like say Trump and his scratched ear from a small shard of glass...  

Even his innovation of "fort" is so disrespectful as if these men deployed in Iraq where hiding in a fort of couch-cushions like Just Dishonorable Vance...  At this point, as we saw at Arlington, there is nothing traitor Trump can do to alienate his rabid cult who yearn to get him into Office so that they might unleash their inner violent terrorism and murder millions of people here.  But, alas the Corporate Media also openly desires another Trump Presidency so they will never stop Sane-Washing him.

Besides desecrating graves at Arlington National Cemetery, senile traitor Trump promises his America will be bloody

These are the 4 worst Presidents in History
Each worse than the last...
Senile Traitor DonOld Trump doesn't know his ass from a hole in the ground, "You can do everything. The President has such power. It does. Such power." Day 1 Dictator Trump 08/30/24.

In a Wisconsin rally, Trump declared parts of Colorado are controlled by  immigrants based on some lies form the Republican Major of Aurora Mike Coffman and rightwingers online claimed the city had been taken over by Venezuelan Gangs.

(It's completely unsurprising in this era of rightwing online propaganda that Republicans were claiming the Hell's Angels were coming to Aurora, Colorado to fight the Venezuelan Gangs controlling the City and that Republicans would care more about their fantasy of Migrant Gang Invasions than the real threat out there of White Male Rightwing Gunmen going into a movie theater shooting dozens of people).

Donald Trump is visibly confused.  Donald Trump is physically in shambles and barely presentable in public.  Donald Trump can't complete a sentence.  Donald Trump can't process a question posed to him and respond in a coherent fashion.  Donald Trump can't speak without descending into the same tired lies, insults, slanders, and fascist  he's recited hundreds of times before.  Donald Trump is not mentally fit for duty.  

But...

Donald Trump does know how to emotionally work his rabid supporters; with Fear & Anger and his 70,000,000 followers are beginning to realize he can say anything he wants so, they are doing the same.  Seriously, #KamalaHQ posts verbatim quotes fromTrump and his criminal co-conspirators and his on-line Russian paid army of Twitter Nazis tell America don't believe what we actually said believe what we tell you we said.

In his speech Total weirdo Trump claimed, "They will have a hundred million of these people in here with another 4 years. A hundred million.  If you think you have a nice house a migrant will enjoy your house.  Because a migrant will take it over.  It will be Venezuela on Steroids." FEAR!

Trump then continued his lie about children being Transgendered at school, "Kamala supports states being able to take minor children and perform sex change operation, take them away from their parents, perform sex-change operation and send them back home.  Can you imagine you're a parent and your son leaves the house and you say, Jimmy, I love you so much. Go have a good day in school and your son comes back with a brutal operation." ANGER!

And then capped off what he and the Republicans plan to do,  "The gangs are taking over sections of the state.  And, you know, getting them out will be a bloody story."

Trump will give his bloody MAGA cult the violence they yearn for.  And he's telling them he will pardon those convicted of crimes against the American people because he's going to give a blanket pardon to January 6 convicted criminals.

And this was just on recent speech.  In the past few months, the incoherent statements, the number of insane falsehoods, the number of unhinged fascist declarations, the rabid calls for violence, and the number of easily disprovable lies by Trump would fill columns in Newspapers...  if the Corporate Media cared to cover it.

But...  they don't.

The Corporate Media wants him to be President again.  So, they will continue in their policy of "sane-washing" his comments and re-organizing his actual statements so it doesn't look like unintelligible gibberish.

And...

The Corporate Media wanted Joe Biden gone and the Democrats in Disarray so they could help propel their Dear Leader DonOld Trump back into the White House.

What they got in July instead was a masterful political maneuver by President Biden, which energized the Democratic base and enlivened the casual Democratic voter and positioned Kamala Harris to be the next President.

This was not how this was supposed to go when the Corporate Media wrote for months about President Biden's age, which is why since that fateful day in July, the Corporate Media hasn't mentioned that DonOld Traitor Trump is a senile, incoherent criminal making up absolute garbage lies, engaging in non-stop racist and sexist attacks on soon-to-be President Harris, and demonstrating that besides all the criminal activity, he is not only morally unfit and ethically unsound for the Office of President he is in need of committal to a mental health institute.

Understand, nothing anyone writes on Twitter (X), Social Media or Substack or in these ancient unread blog posts is going to change the way the Corporate Media "sane-washes" Trump but, that doesn't make it a useless endeavor.  We've got to fight for the country we won't because the one Trump and the Republicans want is a fascist hellhole of oppression and mass murder.

But, the more insane shit Trump spouts the more his supporters cling to him, the more rabid they become in the thought he will be taken from them, and as they get more frightened of not having their Cultish Leader the more they convince themselves that Violence is the way to go.

I could post further actual quotes, the rambling incoherence, and spit flecked diatribes the Corporate Media won't but, the people who actually need to read and her what Trump is saying don't come here.

"Well, I would do that and we're sitting down, you know, I was, somebody, we had Marco Rubio and my daughter, Ivanka were very impactful… But I think when you talk about the kind of numbers that I'm talking about that because the child care is childcare, you know, that's something you have to have it in this country, you have to have it... I want to stay with childcare… So we'll take care of it. Thank you" - Trump in Sept 2024, when people are listening...

I knew this was going to get Ugly, but while I expected the Corporate Media to BOTHSIDES BOTHSIDES BOTHSIDES this into a 50/50 horserace match, I did not expect them to overtly, blatantly, and openly come out in favor of Trump and decide to throw in with him fully.

Harris and Walz can win and if the recent new voter registration figures can over come the Republican voter suppression and ballot rigging efforts, then the dirty tricks Republicans in Georgia, Louisiana, Texas, North Carolina, Arizona, Wisconsin and elsewhere won't matter.  Because Harris will win not only by landslide popular vote numbers but with a solid near blowout Electoral College Vote.  Right now we have to win, we can talk about reconciliation and deprogramming the MAGA cultists later.

Update:
I think I know what the Corporate Media play will be;  they are waiting for the September 10th Debate.  If Trump can come off barely cogent and slightly coherent and sticks to his Forceful presentation of lies and slanders they will declare their Dear Beloved Leader Fit for Duty and ready to be President once again.  But, if senile traitor Trump happens to mess up and actually scream N-Word at Vice President Kamala Harris, they might... might mind you... claim maybe he isn't fit for duty.  

But, I don't think so.  I think no matter what Trump says or does ons take they will BothSides the debate claim both candidates told untruths, both candidates proposed differed with their Housing Policy, with their commitment to Education, with their visions for America and declare the Race a Toss-Up!  Woo-Hoo!  More Horerace coverage!  Woo-Hoo more coverage of Trump's wild showmanship!  Woo-Hoo more chances to question whether or not Kamala Harris really worked at McDonald's.

Despicable Traitor Trump hates Veterans and danced on Graves at Arlington National Cemetery for political gain falls back on I didn't know the rules defense

DonOld's Double Handjob Dance
Having conducted despicable acts of desecration at Arlington National Cemetery, Trump has fallen back on his go to move when facing political pushback; Blame Others.

Well, we have a lot of people, TikTok people. You know, we’re leading the Internet. That was the other thing, we’re so far ahead of her on the Internet.  I don’t know what the rules or regulations are, I don’t know who did it. It could have been them! It could have been the parents. It could have been somebody.”  This is not true. Informed his campaign published videos from the visit on TikTok, he said, “I really don’t know anything about it.”

Hahahahahaha.  What a fucking joke.  The former President, doesn't know the Rules.  So fucking pathetic.  Whenever ugly weirdo Trump faces a tiny bit adversary the big tough guy immediately throws someone else under the bus.  This is what MAGA calls leadership, this is what MAGA calls courage and strength.  Trump is a coward, a fraud, a fascist, a rapist, a racist.  But, Trump is contemptuous of Veterans and even more so of his supporters.

Do this.  
Don't do that.  
Can't you read the sign?
Treasonous Trump thought he'd use a fraudulent ceremony to get the Corporate Media to attack President Biden and soon-to-be President Harris but, instead because he is a disgusting slob, a cretinous criminal, and traitor he ended up posting the most shameless photos and videos of himself absolutely disrespecting those buried at Arlington, the families of those lost, and the entire United States military.  And the rightwing media and Mainstream media tried to cover for him by asking about the "Event".  As though this was some Official Government Event.  As if Trump had attended this yearly.  Trump has trampled on graves before in his buffoonish clowning way and recall in 2018 Trump refused to go to a WW1 American Veteran Ossuary because he'd get his har wet.

But, using other peoples bravery and then claiming it for himself is something Trump does often.  Never Forget, Trump claimed to have gone down to Ground Zero in NYC on 9/11 and helped and claimed to have done much over the years for firefighters, survivors, and others.  These tales are all false.  

Trump is a loathsome scumbag.  Yet... here we are with the absolute knowledge that some 70,000,000 people are going to vote for a criminal whose aspirations extend no further than the length of his extra long red tie and his only thoughts center on what's in it for me?

Trump has gotten away with so much lies and so much evil over the years.  His desecration of Arlington National Cemetery and his staff's brutal attack on a dedicated Federal employee looking to save the honor of those interred on those sacred grounds can not be let go.  We, the People have a chance to halt Trump's Totalitarian dream and put an end to these last 10 years of Trump.

Addendum:

As usual political cartoonists cut through the mendacious Corporate Media coverage and protection of their beloved Dear Leader DonOld and depict despicable Donald Trump's dishonorable acts and desecration of those interred at Arlington, at a link from the great progressive Hackwhackers blog.

Trump desecrated Arlington National Cemetery while his staff beat up an employee

 So... it seems quite clear the Corporate Media was gearing up to let Trump's disgraceful use of Arlington National Cemetery as his personal campaign photo op slide and just chalk it up to there was a minor controversy as Trump team clashed with an official... but We, the People aren't!

The caption at the bottom of the image reads:
President Donald Trump
Should Have Never Happened
Donald Trump has a fundamental disrespect for service members and Veterans.  Trump oozes with contempt for Veterans and Veterans know it.

While Trump was standing on the graves of better and braver people than him self, grinning his rictus grin, flashing his teeny thumbs up, literally clowning on top of hallowed (not "hollowed" as Chris LaCivita wrote) ground, his team was pushing an National monument employee around, assaulting them and probably knocking them to the ground.  And in this cemetery are Medal of Honor recipients whom Trump just a few days ago, repeatedly mocked and insulted.  And it's quite fucking clear that Trump planned on using footage from Arlington to advance his despicable campaign.

And now, Just Dishonorable Vance has decided to tell future President Kamala Harris to "go to hell" in a transparent effort to seem like a tough guy and to try to drag Harris into this issue so Trump and MAGA can get the Corporate Media to attack VicePresident Harris for them.

Here's the thing, J.D. Vance is a coward.  He never served in Afghanistan.  He chickened out of service there and did not re-enlist when his time came.  He's disgraced himself with this campaign and should be ashamed to call himself a Marine. 

But, Trump's treatment of Federal employees and his weirdo campaign staff's giant fucking ego in thinking they can just trounce around whatever site they want in full fascist swagger is not new.  This is exactly what Trump incited on January 6th when he sent his unruly mob into Capitol to stop the peaceful transfer of power and advance an Autogolpe to remain in power.  His entitled behavior emboldens traitors to treat the National cemetery as their personal plaything.

Patrick Dillion points out there are numerous Trump staff members of whom it is conceivable would push a woman to the ground.  And grotesque Steven Cheung claimed there was video of the incident and yet... we've not seen one second of that video released by the Treasonous Trump team.  Instead what we have seen is exactly what we knew this was a tawdry political stunt and disgraceful use of 

Republicans love Dead Marines because Republicans can stick their lies into the mouths of the dead and use Marines valor to help prop up evil Republican plans.  Trump is using this family's grief, stoking it in the most obscene way, and blatantly using dead service members to help quicken his dying campaign. 

It's the epitome of Stolen Valor.  It's Trump's way.

Stolen Valor and abusive insulting despicable behavior by draft dodger Donald Trump and his criminal cronies at Arlington National Cemetery

"We have the real generals. Not the Fake Woke generals who did so poorly in Afghanistan." - reprehensible Traitor Trump (August 21, 2024) continues to wantonly insult and disrespect Veterans and service members.

New reporting from NPR shows how vile and abhorrent Trump's cronies acted during Traitor Trump use the bodies and courage and valor of other's to help his treasonous campaign.

Two members of Donald Trump’s campaign staff had a verbal and physical altercation Monday with an official at Arlington National Cemetery where the former president participated in a wreath laying ceremony, NPR has learned.

Federal law prohibits political campaign or election-related activities within Army National Military Cemeteries, to include photographers, content creators or any other persons attending for purposes, or in direct support of a partisan political candidate’s campaign," according to the statement. "Arlington National Cemetery reinforced and widely shared this law and its prohibitions with all participants."

Trump's weird and despicable bigoted spokesman Steven Cheung claimed the Arlington National Cemetery employee was suffering a mental health episode in order to defame him.

Trump and his dishonorable criminal staff used Arlington National Cemetery as their own personal campaign prop.  Trump has shown nothing but blatant disrespect and contempt for America's military members he repeatedly shits on Veterans, Medal of Honor recipients, and those who gave the ultimate sacrifice and his followers don't fucking care.  It's utterly abhorrent and absolutely disqualifying.

What an irredeemable piece of shit ugly weirdo Trump and everyone who has attached themselves to his ass are...  As Trump and his campaign continue to insult Veterans and the Military will anyone tell that ugly weirdo Traitor to his face that he is a liar and a monumental disrespectful pile of crap?  Any chance?

Shades of I will make it legal!



They won't, of course.  Instead the Corporate Media will dutifully record and broadcast all the lies Trump spews and ignore the insults.  Oh and the Corporate Media will studiously ignore Trump openly declaring he is going to personally repeal the 1st Amendment,
👈

Trump claims we will restore world peace and it will be peace through strength. What does that fucking mean? Who knows? Who cares! Woo-hoo Dear Leader Trump is a Strongman!!!

I don't know if the Press is shell-shocked by decades of Trump's brazen and easily disproven lies or if they admire him and are willing accomplices.  Whatever, the case, the Corporate Media will never hold him to account and will never admit they failed the American People in their one job of being the Fourth Estate telling Truth to Power. Instead they will continue to treat Trump as a legitimate candidate for President and not the lying anti-Democratic traitor, thieving felon, and wannabe autocrat. 
Trump watched Braveheart (1995) recently and thinks he's King 

Don't act like this is Trump alone claiming Harris is weak, that's what the whole rightwing attack Kamala Harris eats Doritos! Or when puerile asshole Jesse Watters said ho-ho-ho the Generals are going to have their way with President Kamala Harris har-har.    

The entire Republican Party is scum. 

Soon-to-be President Kamala Harris not only has to deal with the problems facing 21st century United States she has to reckon with the Cult of Trump which is hell-bent upon overthrowing the Nation and establishing a White Supremacist Fascist Fundamentalist Regime founded on non-stop lying and barely constrained threats of widespread Domestic Terrorism.

And he still keeps repeating his completely made-up "Almost went down in a Helicopter with Willie Brown" story, which is just a thinly veiled way for him to make crude juvenile sex jokes like Jesse Watters is doing.  Of course, when the Press stupidly ask him for evidence for his bullshit claim, instead of calling him despicable liar, ugly weird Trump responds in a petulant whiny voice, 'Oh you wanna see the evidence? Oh you wanna see the evidence?'

Trump, has for the most part escaped justice for his innumerable High Crimes and Misdemeanors, but he believes the only way to be sure is that he ensconces himself into the White House issues blanket pardons and rules up to the moment of his death.

Look MAGA doesn't give a fuck about any of this. There is literally (not figuratively literally but literally literally) nothing Trump can say or do which will lose him a single supporter. These are people we must resoundingly defeat in the 2024 Election. But, understand Republicans in Federal Office, at State Level, and at Faux News and other rightwing propagandist outlets will be working ceaselessly to steal the election, delay the results, undermine the Harris Presidency because Republicans know 2024 might be their last solid chance to achieve their dream of destroying the United States, enslaving women, murdering blacks and rounding up and liquidating millions of migrants and American citizens.

Stolen Valor at Arlington National Cemetery as Donald Trump and J. D. Vance use dead Marines as a Photo Op and campaign promo

Stealing Valor is a prime feature of Traitor Trump and Just Dishonorable Vance despicable campaign as they engaged in the classic Republican move of using  dead service members as a campaign photo op to help their flailing and failing campaign.  Just despicable and shameless.  This is 100% Stolen Valor.  This is using the courage or others to advance the political fortunes of vile traitors and cowards.  This is disgusting and reprehensible behavior.  This is Republican politics.

Samuel Johnson famous quote needs to be updated to more accurately reflect Republican beliefs; Faux patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel.

Fortunately, the military services and Veterans are, like the American electorate, far more progressive than they were 20 or 40 years ago.

I am incensed at Traitor Trump, a man who violated his Oath of Office, who literally argued in court he, "did not take an oath 'to support the Constitution of the United States.' and is not an 'Officer of United States'.  That this treasonous filth who did not end the war in Afghanistan but, instead released the Taliban to retake the country and dropped the difficult part of extracting Us from Afghanistan after 20 years to his successor and then has the fucking gall and temerity to criticize his betters is just par for the course for ugly weirdo Trump.

Just Dishonorable Vance has hitched his political future to the worst people in the country he's fully disavowed his Marine Corps boot camp training. Of course, you know Vance didn't serve in Afghanistan so I don't know where he gets the fucking chutzpah to have an opinion since he didn't have the courage to serve there.

But, we don't live in era where such despicable photo ops are treated as the shameless and unacceptable.  We live in an Era when Republicans use other people and are on the cusp of destroying the United States of America.
This grotesque display is Republican "Patriotism"

Who in the FUCK does a photo op grinning with a teeny tiny thumbs up over the grave?

Donald Trump Jr made a bigger sacrifice than any Veteran at Arlington Cemetery

Most Republicans and conservatives are chickenhawks, jingoistic cheerleaders for War and the Military, but decidedly against joining and putting their own asses on the line.

Donald Trump Jr, (the Trump name is forever Slimy Shit) followed in his fathers bone spurs, and avoided all military service. Slimy Shit Junior was 23 years old on 9/11 when his father thanked the Saudis for knocking down World Trade Center 1 and 2 and making Trump Tower the tallest building in New York City. Trump Jr. didn't join up and serve in Iraq or Afghanistan. But, in his new book Triggered: How the Left thrives on Hate and wants to Silence us, Trump Junior would like you to know he sacrificed at least as much if not more than any Vet at Arlington,
"I rarely get emotional, if ever. I guess you'd call me hyper-rational, stoic. Yet as we drove past the rows of white grave markers, in the gravity of the moment, I had a deep sense of the importance of the presidency and a love of our country ... In that moment, I also thought of all the attacks we'd already suffered as a family, and about all the sacrifices we'd have to make to help my father succeed — voluntarily giving up a huge chunk of our business and all international deals to avoid the appearance that we were 'profiting off of the office'. Frankly, it was a big sacrifice, costing us millions and millions of dollars annually ... Of course, we didn't get any credit whatsoever from the mainstream media, which now does not surprise me at all."
Fuuuuuuuuuck You. "I rarely get emotional" and I'm "hyper-rational" Traitor Tot sounds like his demented old man. Anyone who has to claim they are 'like really smart' or "hyper-rational" is decidedly not.

And Slimy Shit Junior is on this media book tour to make money. To explicitly profit from the Office of the Presidency. Not from individual sales of the book; that's not how rightwing screeds become "best-sellers". No instead rightwing think tanks buy up huge amounts of these books and give them as gifts from joining.

What a disgusting spectacle. Trump and his shit family have degraded the US, of course, but what is far more disgusting is how conservatives have decided to go along with this. For fucks sake, conservatives are so vested in #OwntheLibs that they will cheer and read Trump's book about how much he and his family have sacrificed?

On the heels of the Court ordering Traitor Trump repay $2,000,000 he stole from Charity and Slimy Shitt Junior declaring he's suffered and sacrificed more than any person buried at Arlington National Cemetery should not only be a death knell for Trump's political future but, immediately make him a pariah in polite company and earn him angry denunciations from Veterans groups and individual Vets. But, no conservative is going to abandon Trump no matter what despicable lies and stolen valor Trump and his spawn engage in.

Trump is yet to be the worst President in History, that still belongs to W(orst POTUS) for his War Crimes in the Middle East, ignoring the warnings about Bin Laden determined to Attack the US, for allowing New Orleans to drown, and for another Republican Recession, but Trump and Family have the revere Midas touch; everything they touch turns to shit. Trump Jr is modeled from the same slimy shit.
