A description of “Big Boss” King Donald and his Trumplican mob

Our new Health and Human Services Dictator Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., who has sold and been addicted to heroin and other drugs and suffers from worms eating his brain, has a solution for people who have been addicted because of anxiety, depression, diabetes, and other “conditions” he has suffered. He would sentence those people to labor camps called “Wellness Farms” where they would be denied prescription medications and barred from having cell phones, computers and other means to contact the outside world. They would receive no salary —or a small one — for growing organic foods. People with ADHD and depression would cure themselves from SSRIs and antidepressants. Misbehaving Black kids would be sentenced to “reparenting” concentration camps in a rural area because they have bad genes and some kind of poison in the blood. Immigrants who need “purifying” will be assigned to concentration camps at Guantanamo Bay.

After being reprogrammed and processed, immigrants will be repatriated to their home countries. This is just part of Kennedy’s program “To Make America Healthy Again.” Like all supporters of the Trump MAGA cult who refuse to identify when America was great, Kennedy has not identified when all Americans were healthy.

A health program for all billionaires with “Never Enough Syndrome”

This seems to be such an impressive program to reform The Divided States of America, I suggest we use the same system to cure our abhorrent economic inequality. If it is possible for billionaires or anyone to live comfortably on $999,000,000, let’s send our 800 billionaires (some who have as much as $409 billion) to labor camps for the cure of the “Never Enough Syndrome” they suffer from. They will keep the stables clean for horses that will run daily in trifecta races.

This economic wellness program will change the richest ZIP codes to a national average. Such a program will dramatically change the richest country to one where all Americans could live. The Hamptons could serve as a sample because it is one of the longest surviving wealthy areas in the country.

The most expensive home on the East Coast is there, a mansion in Sagaponact, New York, where a home valued at $425 million with 29 bedrooms and 39 bathrooms serves people who pay $21.50 for a breakfast omelet and drive expensive cars to pick up a $1,300 can of caviar at the local grocery store. The living costs are so high in many of these wealthy towns, the servants who serve the residents and homes live homeless in the forests on the estates.

The billionaires who have explored the four corners of the earth seeking tax havens will be released from their labor camp when a wealth tax instituted when they entered treatment will pay off the $36 trillion national debt, support a single-payer health care plan, restore and increase Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, SNAP, and veterans benefits, pay off all college student debts of $1.7 trillion, offer free college for everybody and restore memberships in the Paris Agreement, the World Health Organization and all international treaties previously signed and drop the Second Amendment.

That alone will save 50,000 killed and 100,000 wounded every year, saving billions of dollars. Forty-five million firearms from automatic Glocks to 700-rounds-a-minute machine guns represent our public health crisis of the century.

According to Roget’s Thesaurus we have 193 words to describe ignorance

Among them are illiterate, innocent, naïve, oblivious, obtuse, uneducated, uninformed, birdbrain (insulting to smarter birds!), imbecilic, moronic, insensible, unread, unknowledgeable, unlearned, idiotic, dumb, witless…with only 176 to go.

For more than a decade King Donald and his Trumplicans have used the word “trans,” standing for transgender people, to pass laws to gain power in the Divided States of America. A recent Gallup Poll finds that more than 10% of the population identify as members of the LBGTQUIA+ community: 5.2% are bisexual, 2.0% are gay, 1.4% are lesbian, 1.3% are transgender and just under 1% identify as pansexual, asexual, or other. Genetic scientists have determined that at least 74 genders exist so far among the 34 million LBGT Americans. Overall, 85.7% are heterosexual.

King Donald signed an executive order that there were only two genders in America. The problem is I could use all of the words used to describe the ignorance, stupidity and idiocy possessed by King Donald. He is a victim of verbal diarrhea and lies all the time. Supposedly, a college graduate, he is the most ignorant celebrity I have ever written about. His hand should never hold any gavel. He is a certified and combined malignant narcissist, jerk, prick and asshole who loves only himself. He probably does not recognize any of the names of LBGTQUIA+ members I’m going to list because he doesn’t know any history: St. Augustine, who “didn’t want to be moral yet,” Mary Cheney, daughter of VP Dick Cheney; Baron Friedrich William von Steuben, General George Washington’s chief military advisor during the Revolutionary War; Leonard Bernstein, musician and orchestra director; Marjorie Main, actress; Ludwig Beethoven, composer; Lawrence of Arabia, English soldier; Newt Gingrich’s sister; Joan of Arc, saint of the Roman Catholic Church; Michaelangelo, Vatican ceiling painter; Plato, Greek philosopher; Barry Goldwater’s grandson; Alexander the Great, continent leader; Greg Louganis, champion Olympic diver; Pope Benedict IX, Vatican; Billie Jean King, tennis player, Leonardo DaVinci, Vatican painter, engineer, builder; Rock Hudson, movie lover; Richard the Lion-Hearted, English soldier; Ron Reagan, son of Ronald Reagan; Walt Whitman, poet; Mark Bingham, hero of Flight 93; Alan Turing, English codebreaker of WWII Nazi Enigma Code; and Liberace, Las Vegas piano player.

Why do morons, idiots, and imbeciles deny facts, history and science?

There are about 8,000 transgender people within the 80,000 members of the LBGTQUIA+ community in North Dakota. They are your sons and daughters, grandchildren, neighbors, your doctor and nurses, teachers, and entertainers. All kinds of legislation have been passed in Trumplican states trying to control the lives of 10% of the population; where they can live, work, make love and urinate and defecate.

Facts: a recent national poll of transgender people indicated that 95% are very happy they have transitioned. Only 3% expressed doubts and 2% were unhappy. It’s interesting that differences in political ideology indicate that 21% of liberals, 8% of moderates, and only 3% of conservatives say they are members of the gay community. Additionally, 10% of women and 6% of men are more likely to say they are bisexual and slightly more than 1% say they are nonbinary.

The gender gaps are especially pronounced in the younger generation with 31% of Gen Z women versus 12% of Gen Z men and 18% of millennial women versus 9% of millennial men identify as LBGTQUIA+. (Most of these younger women say they are bisexual.)

In the 12 years the Gallop Poll has been tracking LBGT people, the number has about tripled because people are now more willing to admit they are lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender. A politician without these facts has no business voting on trans medical treatments and use of bathrooms. You are too ignorant, obtuse, uneducated, uninformed, birdbrained, uncultured, unlettered, stupid, unread, shallow, insensible and unknowledgeable to have that power over fellow Homo sapiens. I have just used a few more of the 193 synonyms for “ignorance.”

The King Donald reign may add more words to the definition of “stupid”

The White House has been busy banning material from government websites and files that contain such words as climate change, health, science, equality, racism, multicultural and diversity and has banned scientists working on various trials and experiments in the health care field. The Thesaurus adjectives for “stupid” can be particularly biting: dull, dumb, foolish, futile, ill-advised, irrelevant, laughable, ludicrous, naïve, senseless, shortsighted, simple, trivial, dummy, loser, rash, unintelligent, brainless, dopey, dullish, indiscreet, mindless and moronic. I see in the latest news that way back in 2021 Musk called King Donald a “moron.” That was also the conclusion of Chief of Staff General Mattis.

The Defense Department has banned the children’s book “Freckleface Strawberry” by Julianne Moore based on her life when she was seven and hated freckles. It was banned because it potentially related to gender ideology! Moore is the proud daughter of a Vietnam veteran and is a graduate of Defense Department schools. “I’m truly saddened and never thought I would see this in a country where freedom of speech and expression is a constitutional right,” she said.

Julianne, we are now living in Trumpistan where the Supreme Court has crowned a king. We can only add a few more definitions to “stupid”: dazed, shortsighted, deficient, dim, doltish, gullible, half-witted, inane, insensate, mindless, out-to-lunch.

I see our legislature is trying to play doctor again by attempting to increase requirements for doctors who perform abortions. Do you think women are so dumb they are going to go to a plumber or a welder? Let’s add a few more definitions for “stupid” that fit this act: blockhead, bonehead, cretin, dimwit, dumbbell, dunce, ignoramus, mullionhead, nincompoop, ninny, pinhead, clodpoll and simpleton.

Republican Representative Claudia Tenney of New York has introduced a bill to make June 14 a federal holiday because it’s King Donald’s birthday and it should be celebrated to recognize the founder of America’s Golden Age. She added: “Trump’s contribution to American greatness should forever be enshrined into law.”

Now, I’m speechless. She has also nominated King Donald for the Nobel Peace Prize. This is beyond stupid. I can only add an old chant: “Hey! Hey! Donald J! How many kids did you kill today?”

But so has the ambitious Doug Burgum!

Our new Secretary of the Interior has also predicted King Donald will win the Nobel Prize by selling our deposits of fossil fuels to the world. I’m a news junkie, so over the years I have followed small town Doug from Great Plains Software to Microsoft to capital Bismarck to big-town Washington, D.C. and standing and sitting by God’s Chosen One in cabinet meetings.

Every time I see him with Trump, I can’t help but think of Shakespeare’s play “Macbeth” where his main theme is unbridled ambition that starts with the murder of King Duncan and ends in King Macbeth’s death. Lady Macbeth pressures Macbeth: “Yet do I fear thy nature, It is too full of the milk of human kindness to catch the nearest way, Thou wouldst be great, art not without ambition, but without the illness should attend it.”

At the end of the play, when his wife is dead, he examines his life and ambition: “Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow creeps in this petty pace from day to day to the last syllable of recorded time, and all our yesterdays have lighted fools the way to dusty deaths. Out, out, brief candle! Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage and then is heard no more: it is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing.”

In this column I have used only 86 words that help define “stupid” and “ignorant.” Check next week. I have 107 more to use to describe Trumplicans.
