Come Out Of The Cave — See The Ray Of Sun! | Filosofa’s Word

It’s easy to become disheartened by all the noise being made by Citizen Trump and his co-conspirators this election year, but frankly I don’t picture any scenario whereby he actually wins the election in November.  Not one, as long as we all do our part and VOTE.  For one thing, he doesn’t even have the support of his former staff, and that says a LOT!

Some choice quotes from Trump’s own folks.

  • Former Secretary of Defense, Mark T. Esper: Trump is not “fit for office because he puts himself first, and I think anybody running for office should put the country first.”
  • Former Secretary of Defense, James Mattis“His use of the Presidency to destroy trust in our election and to poison our respect for fellow citizens has been enabled by pseudo political leaders whose names will live in infamy as profiles in cowardice.”
  • Former White House Chief of Staff John Kelly: Trump is “a person that has no idea what America stands for and has no idea what America is all about.”
  • Former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley“The reality is, rightly or wrongly, chaos follows him, and we all know that’s true. We can’t have a country in disarray and a world on fire and go through four more years of chaos. We won’t survive it.”
  • Former National Security Advisor John Bolton: There will be “celebrations in the Kremlin” if Trump is elected in November, adding: “Putin thinks that he is an easy mark.”
  • Former Vice-President Mike Pence“I cannot in good conscience endorse Donald Trump in this campaign.”
  • Former Attorney General William Barr“Voting for Trump is playing Russian roulette with the country. I have made clear that I strongly oppose Trump for the nomination and will not endorse Trump.”

Former Republican Congresswoman Liz Cheney has begun the “big public gathering” stage of her anti-Trump crusade, and she can draw a crowd, too. She was in Des Moines, Iowa last week and filled a stadium of people hungry to hear her pro-democracy message.

“We know [Trump] tried once not to leave office, and he will have no incentive to guarantee a peaceful transfer of power and to leave office should he be elected again…

As frustrated as I know people get sometimes with policy disagreements you might have — and I certainly have policy disagreements with the Biden administration — I know the nation can survive bad policy. We can’t survive a president who is willing to torch the Constitution.”

A significant number of moderate Republicans don’t feel at home in the new maga GOP, don’t relate to Trump at all, and want their party back. Here’s what one former Trump supporter/voter says …

You know he isn’t the only one!  Let us hope that they turn out en masse on November 5th.
