Trump Wants To Be Dumped

"Let no one decieve you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience." Ephesians 5:6

As he recklessly lays siege to America, President-elect Donald J. Trump is daring us to stop him.
Trump is practically pleading with us -- we, the people, the state electors, lawmakers to keep him from the presidency.
He has yet to be sworn in as commander in chief, but already Trump is displaying the disturbing markers of a fascist dictator, testing the limits of Democratic societal norms in alarming ways.
As Trump, smiles smugly and recklessly flouts American principle, degrading, dividing and conquering, there's something else going on.
The tweeter-elect is covertly sending out an S.O.S.
Secretly, deep down in his conflicted, very much alive and unwell inner child, and in ways that Trump himself may not fully comprehend, the impetuous Donald ernestly is begging us to say "enough!"
Can't you see it?
Way down deep,Trump is still the spoiled, bratty, impulsive child seeing how far he can push us, before we bring the hammer down.
Trump doesn't want the job as president. He never did. Not really.
Sure, he coveted the presidency as any megalomaniac would -- akin to the way a 6-year-old wants to be Superman or a king.
But actually do the work? Nah. Intelligence reports? Who needs 'em? He's smart. Don't mess with his tweeting time.
In his lost soul of souls, Trump can't help himself. He's still that kill joy kid who demanded the spotlight and delighted in demolishing majestic sand castles other kids spent hours at the beach building.
So, let's just pretend "The Donald" isn't 100's of millions of dollars in debt. Okay?
Presently, absent any authoritative voice to tell The Donald "No!" -- the nation's most undisciplined, lethal home-bred terrorist is only becoming more emboldened.
He's sticking out his tongue, wiggling his tookus, taunting us, "nah, nah, na-nah nah," daring us to smack his greedy, grubby little hand away from the cookie jar, now nearly emptied of American ideals.
Hey, if he's the new boss, why cash in, or cut ties with the innumerable Trump business interests around the globe? Conflict of what??
The spineless Republican Party leadership and the ratings-minded corporate conglomerate-owned cable news, only condoned Trump's inexcusable, bizarre behavior from the get-go.
And if we allow him, the child-like Trump will destroy our country in much the same way he leveled sand castles as a punk kid.
Where will that voice of authority, ordering The Donald to "stop," come from?
A voice unbound by pathetic political party allegiances that have only stagnated and strangled progress, leaving America, not since the Civil War, so divided.
Esteemed State Electors, you are that desperately needed voice of authority. Forget party. Think country.
You, and then likely the House of Representatives, are America's last visible hope of saving our beloved country from disaster.
In the past month since Trump was declared the president-elect, truth and justice have been under attack in America like never before.
Consider:
Trump has challenged our God-given, First Amendment rights to free speech, a free press, peaceful protests and fair elections.
Like Adolph Hitler, Trump has labeled the press as liars and threatened to jail and strip of citizenship, government protesters who burn flags.
He's broken security protocol, increased international tensions (China and Russia), and fluffed off his numerous, extensive business conflicts around the world.
Through his crony, elitist insider administration appointments, Trump is endangering the people's social security, Medicare, environmental protections and racial harmony.
The problem with comprehending Trump's myriad blatant, past and present violations of human decency, is that they are seemingly endless.
By virtue of his multitude of conflicts, Donald J. Trump is arguably the least qualified person on the planet to be the next president of the United States.
Despite all the knocks against the Electoral College as being antiquated, the system was designed by our foreseeing Founding Fathers for dire times such as these.
Under the U.S. Constitution, the college was meant as a check and balance against an unqualified person, one with state enemy ties, from being elected commander in chief.
It's almost as if Alexander Hamilton had Trump in mind when he wrote number 58 of the Federalist Papers in March of 1788, explaining the  purpose of the Electoral College.
"The process of election affords a moral certainty, that the office of President will never fall to the lot of any man who is not in an eminent degree endowed with the requisite qualifications," wrote Hamilton.
Virtually every day brings a new impulsive tweet from the president-elect, responding to a percieved slight or challenge to his
Authoritarian values.
Additionally, Hamilton wrote in the Federalist Papers:
"Nothing was more to be desired than that every practicable obstacle should be opposed to cabal, intrigue, and corruption.
"These most deadly adversaries of Republican government might naturally have been expected to make their approaches from more than one quarter, but chiefly from the desire in foreign powers to gain an improper ascendant in our councils."
Think of Trump's increasingly troubling ties to Russian President Vladimir Putin, which our intelligence agencies tell us ordered the hacking of our voter registries to rig the presidential election in Trump's favor.
Republican Electors, there's perhaps never been a more burning call for justice in America.
Your country needs you to uphold your duty under the Constitution.
Unprecedented times call for unprecedented measures. You must exercise your trusted authority over "cabal, intrigue and corruption" and vote against Trump.

The public record also shows that Trump has constructed his suspect illegitimate empire by trampling over lives and bilking others of their slice of the American dream.

Whether you are an Atlantic City contractor, a "Trump University" student, an New York City investor or a farmer in Aberdeenshire, Scotland -- where Trump destroyed environmentally sensitive dune lands to build a golf course for the rich, you mean squat to Trump. (Watch the documentaries "You've Been Trumped" and "You've been Trumped Too.")

Trump may be telling his adoring fans at his victory rallies just what they want to hear. So what?

On what basis can anyone trust a word the man says? 


A Toronto Star reporter who recently fact checked Trump daily for 43 consecutive days, reported that the president-elect lies 20 to 37 times a day.


This is the next leader of the free world. Our world is about to be placed in the hands of a narcissist with the fragile ego of a child, who by all accounts isn't as thrilled with the prospect of leading, as he is with self empowerment.


We musn't placate ourselves, thinking that if the unruly Donald doesn't behave himself in the Oval Office, he'll be impeached.


And all bets are off if Trump is sworn in as president. He's already changing the rules. And he's just getting warmed up.


Christopher Suprun, a Republican member of the Electoral College from Texas, sets the example.
He refuses to support Trump, for numerous reasons, not the least of which is Trump's strange and concerning defense of Russia in the face of the CIA' and FBI's conclusion that Putin meddled with the 2016 presidential election.
Hear the voices of nearly 5 million Americans who have signed a petition, calling on you, Electors, to vote for Democratic presidential  candidate Hillary Clinton, who won the national popular vote by nearly 3 million votes. (Electors and citizens visit Change.org).
Again, we're talking about a man with no experience in public office or the military -- someone who knows he's unfit for the White House and is defiantly acting out, crying for help.
Defend America, Electors. Give Trump what, in his heart of hearts, he's looking for -- a way out.

If we fail to act, with the alarm bells sounding as loud as they are, we are only inviting whatever evil befalls us.

    We can't let him go any further. He's already done too much damage

  3. #EsteemedElectors there is no way Trump is in our corner. There is no way he's fit for office of president. There is no way we will survive in tact as a nation.

  4. I think you're right. He'll never give up all his business interests. This is all a ploy to make him rich. But if we don't stop him, if we let him do whatever the hell he wants, then it's over. America is done..perhaps life itself
