EDITORIAL DONALD TRUMP, GOP RACIAL POLITICS, AND “WAG THE DOG” By Phil Seahorn philseahorn@gmail.com
JULY 7th, 2015 SINCE THE VERY PUBLIC DECLARATIONS OF RACIAL HATRED BY DONALD TRUMP AND THE SUBSEQUESNT SILENCE OF HIS POLITICAL PARTY, THE REPUBLICANS, THE POLITICAL CLIMATE HAS BEEN INTERTWINED WITH THE RACIAL ATMOSPHERE PRESENT IN THE AMERICAN DIASPORA CIRC
2015.REALITY IN PLAY, OR IS THIS MORE OF A “WAG THE DOG” SCENARIO, ENGINEERED FOR ONE PURPOSE: TO MAKE THE POLITICAL CAMPAIGN OF 2016 PR0FITABLE FOR EVERYONE, AND I MEAN EVERYONE, INVOLVED. I have posted on Facebook in the past on the “wag the dog” element of politics, especially since the 2000 elections in the United States. Add the element of social media, or what I call “new media” to the political mix, and you have a political race that has to deliver on all formats: video content, television content, web content, blog content, cable television political pundit content, ….. the list goes on how the political campaign for 2016 will be data mined, marketed and brokered for huge profits. The problem with that whole concept is that the latest political season has started out so bland it (the 2016 political campaign for presidency) might as well ne skipped over all together. Then comes the Rachel
Dolezal story out of Spokane, Washington, and the Charleston Terrorist Attacks, back to back. Add that to the racial climate of America in 2015 increased concentration on white males and white supremists as terrorists, and the right wing pundits explode with racial tirades of accusing black folks of being outraged and disgusted with the whole situations (Dolezal and the terrorist attack) that their expressions of anger should be deemed “black racism”.
THEN, Donald Trump calls Mexicans and illegal aliens “rapists”, and tells black folks in America if they are so unhappy “go back to Africa.”
THIS is where things get very, very sketchy for me about all of this shit. I’m an intelligent man. And as an intelligent person, I have to observe things much more closely than most people. Call it “ADD of the mind.” Something happens, ESPECIALLY in the political arena of America that is so COMPLETELY AND UNCHARACTERISTICALLY INSANE, in nature, that I have to step back, and say: WHAT THE FUCK?!
I MAKE THIS CLAIM: WE ARE BEING PLAYED FOLKS, FROM DONALD ON DOWN TO THE LOCAL NEWS MEDIA ON ALL THIS SHIT.
The skinny: going back to the “wag the dog” blurb, I CAN’T GET OVER THE FACT THAT SOEMONE OF OBVIOUS SKILL AND TALENT, PLUS INTELLECT as Donald Trump (fuck his hair for a moment, this is about the brain inside the skull that the hair covers) I just can’t buy the fact that Donald Trump, of all people, would just suddenly loose his motherfucking mind and make a statement that this motherfucker KNEW would cost him his ass. Yet, the Donald does this.
WHY WOULD DONALD TRUMP DESTROY HIS OWN EMPIRE RIGHT BEFORE RUNNING FOR ELECTIONS IN 2016? Because he didn’t. As a matter of fact, by saying what the Donald said, that netted him north of 500 million dollars, to be matched by political contributions from all over the world. And after his statement, he was catapulted to the number 2 position as GOP contender for the White House in 2016. Donald Trump knew that there would be absolutely no way he could handle all his business and media affairs at this point in the game if he was to devote his full time to running (and from this point in time in 2015, quite successfully) for the presidential office of the U.S. in 2016. What better way to not only get out of his obligations but
GET CRAAAAAZY
PAID was to , well, “be Donald Trump” and say or do something so fucking outrageous that all his present clientele would drop his ass like a hot chicken wing on a 100 degree summer day. They would close out all his contracts. Which means, with all these big time people cutting the contracts early, THEY HAVE TO PAY “THE DONALD”! All those people that dropped Donald meant that Donald got paid up front. He netted, just with contract cancellation fees alone, the amount of money I typed earlier. With the added vitriol of racism and white superiority that has resonated all around the world, Donald is going to get donations from motherfuckers so deeply entrenched in anonymity and hatred that they would only come out and make themselves visible after what the Donald has said, but pledge huge amounts of money to make that man the most powerful man in the world in 2016. Brilliant political move. Except it’s all bullshit. Hence, “WAG
THE DOG”.
I also think the whole “racial politics” of the GOP will be scripted to become something out of fucking “Blazing months.
Saddles” in insulting minorities and women in America in the coming
So there goes the “ho hum” political climate and hello the very real chance of a racial and class war before, during, AND AFTER the 2016 elections.
And as a supper patriot like myself, that is something I do not wish for the country that zi love with all my heart. As Americans, we have to work together to prevent that.
