King of the Losers

Trump is the king of the losers. He voices and acts out the resentments of those with grudges and a desire for revenge. He's their retribution. Try to make sense of this among the most fortunate people in history, modern Americans. It doesn't make sense. And it's probably deeper than you think. 

Evangelicals and fundamentalists are Trump's hardcore supporters. Apart from the very rich, whose backing is there because of the benefits they get, tax breaks and opportunities to plunder. Democrats think they can win over poorer Trump voters through policies that benefit them. That benefit us all. 

That 'all' is a problem, because it includes blacks. 

They don't like blacks. But it's deeper than that. They are retrograde, possibly heretical Calvinists. For them you lose by being born. You win by dying, because life and creation are shit. In death you get to be pure and perfect again. Life is a prison sentence, though God is just and good. Go figure.

They're unfit for democracy, decency and modern society. Any kind of society, which is why they're called sociopaths. But they have their place -- as wards of the state. They have to be politically neutralized. Effectively disenfranchised. Notice the projection. Everything they say about us applies to them. 

They hate America. But they hate everything so don't take it personally. They must be stopped. And it will take extreme measures because they're pathologically determined. Which of course they say about Democrats, that it's an emergency requiring extraordinary measures. So they're right.

Except that the emergency is them. It's all about them.
