The summer is being quietly rocked by scandal and nobody really seems to care. Trump has been arraigned 4 times on various thought crimes. He spends 40% of his campaign dollars defending himself and more importantly countless days away from the campaign trail. This is of course all the left really wants; to derail his campaign. Sure if they can put him in jail they will but wasting his money and his time, and convincing Americans that he is the most evil man since Hitler is their immediate focus. The news coverage on the mainstream media is virtually nonstop Trump bashing. A lot of lies.
Meanwhile, a special counsel has been assigned to look into the corruption of the Biden family. Well, not exactly a special counsel. The DOJ calls it one, but it is being run from inside the DOJ, not outside, by a man who has already demonstrated his keen hatred for Trump and eagerness to protect the Biden family. So the innocent verdict will be very predictable despite all the hard evidence and witnesses against the Biden’s. More importantly, for the next 3 years (or more) the investigation will be used as air cover. “We cannot comment on an open investigation” will be the cry. “Everyone (except Trump) is considered innocent until proven guilty”. The immediate and unspoken goal will be to silence open discussion until after the 2024 election. When the investigation is over, nobody will comment further because of course…. it’s old news.
But the most disturbing thing to me is that the public don’t seem to care. Nobody says a thing. Nobody does anything. Including me by the way. And I don’t know why. We’ve become an overtly corrupt nation in my lifetime. We’ve been told to vote if you want to make a difference, but at age 67 I am now pretty sure that was just a placebo. Voting doesn’t bring about change of any consequence. Republican and Democratic representatives are interchangeable. Trump is different. He scares the establishment politicians and the federal bureaucracy. He really scares the DOJ. And he scares the war making machinery. But aside from Trump, as I look back, I don’t think my vote has ever made a difference. And now voting is so corrupt our vote truly is pointless now
