So The Donald endorses Mitt Romney and… We care why?
The fanfare and circus like atmosphere with which the endorsement was given – and covered by the media -should show every regular Joe, every working class American stiff, just where we stand with the media and politicians alike. Both of these entities heartily believe that this affirmation by Trump will make a difference to the American voter – obviously, or they wouldn’t have covered it, right? But, really? I, mean… really? This is such a complete disconnect with reality as to border on fantasy.
This type of endorsement – one offered by a self important and egotistical millionaire – is right up there in the pantheon of the Hollywood celebrity crowd – movie stars and moguls alike – who believe that we poor, uneducated, feeble minded, stupid, stupid people, need to be led by the hand to the promised land, like a child lost in a mystical forest, by the virtue of the grand guiding light that is their wisdom… after all, they are big shot millionaires and actors for crying out loud and that should carry weight! They have a Twitter account, talk with Oprah and Kings alike and belong to a church that was started by a science fiction writer. I mean, my God, these are very important people, and if you don’t believe me, all you have to do is ask – they will be happy to show you the latest article about themselves in “The National Enquirer.”
And the media is just as bad. Hour after hour of intensely debated theories of who Donald Trump would throw his weight behind. Would it be Gingrich or Romney? And when the question was answered, the new question became – How will this change the outlook for the elections? Now it starts again,each response dissected ad-nauseum with the grand arrogance of peons whose only reason for living is to be on television once every four years, doling out the minutiae of an over exposed election process, day-after-day, night-after agonizing-night. These commentators – who are the moths to the proverbial flame – appear to be angry, frustrated, pompous donkey butts who were bullied in school yards many years ago and whose only desire is to show everyone who used to laugh at them that they are smart and important.
But they aren’t. We The People Are.
So, where does that leave us? Right back where we started, doing our own homework. Please, don’t listen to the pompous real estate barons or make-up wearing adult children whose only real discernable talent is that they make a living “pretending” better than most five year olds. Due your due diligence. Vote for the candidate that you want to back and who will back you – not just the one who you think can win. You will be happier with yourself when you step out of the voting booth. Trust me.
