Donald Trump has not spoken to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) since Thanksgiving. Imagine if a woman president had done that. She would have been roundly criticized. Apparently, 45’s grudge against this perceived enemy is frequently on his mind, and the situation seems to be getting worse.
POTUS has a bad habit of projecting. Taking that into consideration, notice that he called Pelosi “crazy,” “weak,” “incompetent,” “controlled” by elements in her radical party as a “pathetic puppet.” Then, he threw in another “weak” for fun.
After that, Trump implied that she was being lazy for not being in Washington.
‘Crazy “Nancy Pelosi, you are a weak person. You are a poor leader. You are the reason America hates career politicians, like yourself.” @seanhannity She is totally incompetent & controlled by the Radical Left, a weak and pathetic puppet. Come back to Washington and do your job!’
‘Truthout’s Ejeris Dixon summarizes how the chaotic king was operating during the coronavirus pandemic:
‘Fascist and authoritarian governments often exploit, accelerate, or create crises to increase their power and further their agendas. Here’s the fascist emergency playbook:
- Use the emergency to restrict civil liberties — particularly rights regarding movement, protest, freedom of the press, a right to a trial and freedom to gather;
- Use the emergency to suspend governmental institutions, consolidate power, reduce institutional checks and balances, and reduce access to elections and other forms of participatory governance;
- Promote a sense of fear and individual helplessness, particularly in relationship to the state, to reduce outcry and to create a culture where people consent to the power of the fascist state;
- Replace democratic institutions with autocratic institutions using the emergency as justification;
- Create scapegoats for the emergency, such as immigrants, people of color, disabled people, ethnic and religious minorities, to distract public attention away from the failures of the state and the loss of civil liberties.
These steps are currently in progress.’
