Things are getting very serious. We are faced with responding to ridiculous and dangerous activities initiated by Donald Trump! If you think about it, a lot of death has surrounded Trump, both during his last term and the current one.
There is no question that the Trump regime is influenced by an evil mindset. This is not being said lightly; it is a conclusion that we can reach if we pay attention to the details surrounding the current activities and rulings. Almost everything that Trump is advocating for has the invisible specter of death attached; a lot of people can end up dying as a result of his policies.
For the sake of comparison, during his first term, it is said that over a million people lost their lives due to Trump’s inaction regarding the COVID-19 epidemic. For starters, he was a pandemic denier. Later, he accused physicians of over-counting deaths. He also suggested outrageous strategies for combatting the disease like encouraging people to drink bleach as a remedy. As it turns out, however, he didn’t really believe his own propaganda as evidenced by the fact that he secretly provided respirators to Vladimir Putin for their use against the pandemic.
During Trump’s current term, deaths are continuing. For one, there is a measles outbreak that so far has taken the lives of at least three children. This is happening during RFK Jr’s term as the United States Secretary of Health and Human Services. Kennedy doesn’t believe in vaccinations.
Another challenge is the regime’s current plans to cut millions of people from Medicaid, and possibly Medicare. This threatens to cause hospitals to close and scores of people to lose healthcare coverage. Along these same lines, a lot of people overseas who had relied upon USAID stand to lose their lives as a result of the rollback of funds from the U.S.
The forced deportation of immigrants without due process is a problem. This is particularly egregious in the case of a child with life-threatening cancer who relies on medication to stay alive. This child is scheduled to be deported and, consequently, will no longer have access to life-saving treatment. Basically, the deportation issue is something else that stands to cause thousands of people to lose their lives. The Trump regime is reluctant to apply due process to those who are snatched up from our streets and deported to parts unknown because he claims there is not enough time to give due process to everyone that deserves it. With parents separated from their children and placed in terrible prisons, there is a chance that a lot of them AND their offspring stand to lose their lives.
Another area of concern is the abortion ban. Many women are in danger of losing their lives due to the Trump administration denying women control over their bodies; this places both mothers and their potential offspring in jeopardy.
More drama — a prominent MAGA preacher is advocating for the murder of every member of the gay community in America! He believes that people should be lined up and shot in the head if they are members of the LGBT community. The minister delivering this sermon was dead serious about his barbaric suggestion.
Added to the foregoing are the citizens and members of law enforcement who lost their lives during the January 6 coup attack on the Capitol Building; the death of the young man who was caught in the crossfire of an attempted assassination of Trump, and the death of the young man who actually carried out the assassination attempt while Trump was campaigning in Butler, Pennsylvania.
Ultimately, the specter of death seems to follow Donald Trump; this toxic attitude can be seen in the mean-spirited ethos that is characteristic of MAGA adherents. With that said, it is evident that we must take Trump seriously; danger lurks at every turn wherever he is. And he seems hell-bent on hurting Black and Brown people in a type of American Apartheid. Because of this, we must get our ducks in order before it is too late! Aluta continua.
