TriceEdney—If you were a teacher, how would you grade the orange man? What would his grandchildren say about him?
I’ve been a teacher at many levels and wouldn’t know where to begin, but he would not only have flunked out of school, but also been kicked out. His parents would no doubt have paid a heavy price to place him in a special school, while begging the administrators to take him in! They would’ve had to pay a lot of money to convince the school to give him another chance. No Black child would ever get so many chances to straighten up!
This man has already had more chances to be a normal human than the worst child in the world! Who gets 34 felonies and unspeakable daily behavior and still has a chance to go near the White House, known as the People’s House, while being such a really bad actor?
Which President has looked at hardened criminals, pardoned them, let them out of prison without even coming close to serving their time or showing any behavior that would show their intention to do better once they were released?
Which President has committed so many crimes, then have the nerve to tell taxpayers to pay him millions of dollars in legal fees?
Which President would’ve had several million people all around the country, including many who voted for him, now protesting everything he has done in just 8 months?
Which President has been back in office only 8 months, and the economy, security, and democracy are all crumbling?
Which President has sent another country 40 billion dollars while citizens in his own are either fired from their jobs or laid off while their President threatens even more punishment?
Which President promised not to touch the existing White House while he builds himself a ‘playhouse’. As soon as the words were out of his mouth, equipment was sent in to demolish the East Tower! He claims his friends will pay for it!
Which President encouraged the destruction, then pardoned the perpetrators who cost taxpayers millions of dollars to repair our Capitol?
Which President hired one of the perpetrators who did the damage, with some causing the death and injury to several police officers who tried to protect the U. S. Capitol?
After all the damage, which President pardoned the criminals after telling them to go home after they’d ransacked the Capitol and told them he loved them?
That would be the current President of the U.S. and here is what he is doing now and talking about a 3rd term:
- Occupying U.S. cities with military force
- Targeting critics with prosecution.
- Enriching himself and his family and friends.
- Attacking immigrant and minority populations.
- Doubling down on the Big Lie and starting new lies to justify his power and threatening to convict everybody he doesn’t like!
His friend, the late Jeffrey Epstein, was convicted of horrible crimes against young women. Trump is an actual 34-time convicted felon and has broken an untold amount of laws of our nation. I don’t get it, but that is the way it is in our nation these days!
I’m wondering how teachers will handle this part of our history. How will Trump’s grandchildren describe their grandfather to their friends? How will they describe his involvement with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell? How will they explain his close association with Vladimir Putin of Russia or Kim Jong Un of North Korea?
How will they explain his treatment of our Hispanic brothers and sisters, and how he’s treated brilliant Black women like Tish James, Fani Willis, Marilyn Mosby and thousands of others?
Human beings deserve better. What will our historians write about Trump and who is going to stop his atrocious behavior?
