It’s A Hard Rain Gonna Fall America

Read Time:1 Minute, 30 Second

by Glenn R. Geist

The Current Administration, using George Orwell as a playbook, has made the woman who was almost president into a symbolic enemy like Goldstein in 1984.

People gather in the streets and yell “hate, hate” while Big Brother smiles. Any connection, real or lied about is sufficient to demonize the victim. Hence Bob Mueller and the 37,000 member FBI are “Hillary lovers” according to Fox Lies. Hillary Lovers because although they sabotaged her election, they know Trump’s ugly and criminal secrets.

Listening to a collection of clips from Fox this morning, I’m suddenly and seriously afraid. They are actually fomenting revolution – demanding that law enforcement in America be decapitated and reconstituted as the right arm of Trump.

Not only are they smearing and slandering Mueller and the entire FBI employees with invented and contrived and false arguments, but linking them together as “Hillary Lovers” as though these are not mostly very conservative, professional and patriotic people because of whom we still have a mostly free country.

But not for long, not for long. Right now he couldn’t be re-elected and now that his much vaunted “agenda” is proved to be nothing but raw ambition and contempt for Democracy, he needs to make sure and will try to make sure he doesn’t need to run again.

If the declaration that his opponents and their ability to check his power are criminal insurgents and should be locked up isn’t enough, he will be forced to declare war, either through his rigged congress or through some contrived necessity before any Democratic gains are possible.

I think of Haiti. I think of Russia; of the Third Reich. I’m afraid because you’re not.

It’s a hard rain gonna fall America and the clouds have already blotted out the sun.

Same not Sam’s…..bloody auto correct

Enough Americans didn’t want ‘more of the Sam’s and you ended up with Trump.

Your Democrats need a candidate not tarred with the political elite brush.

Remember, Clinton won the popular vote. A candidate not considered part of the political elite will wipe the floor with Trump.

Alternatively get Obama to stand again…or maybe Michelle?

Probably the most respected Prez ever outside the USA.

Trump is trying to be a dictator. Practice makes perfect.

Glenn, your thoughts and mine seem to be melding. I see this whole thing not ending well if someone will authority does not act soon. It is so damn eerie when it is compared to 1984. His world of alternative facts, remaking the language, denying reality is just scary as hell. He is doing many of the same things that Putin has done in Russia. With Sessions as his AG he is more dangerous than the entire nuclear arsenal.

He’s not Hitler, but perhaps his threat to Western Democracies is as great in the long run. More insidious perhaps, without Hitler’s gross atrocities, more like Putin and Xi. More like Juvenal’s Bread and Circuses – hate sessions and rallies and even military confrontations and parades – and jobs – always the promise of jobs, jobs, jobs for the growing class of slaves, slaves, slaves.

I’ve learned to hate that refrain: Jobs, jobs, jobs, always jobs, jobs, jobs.

Not a big Dylan fan but this encouraged me to look up the YouTube. I like it, and Dylan now. Thanks mate.

Think about this…

I heard the sound of a thunder that roared out a warning
I heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world
I heard one hundred drummers whose hands were a-blazing
I heard ten-thousand whispering and nobody listening
I heard one person starve, I heard many people laughing
I heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter
I heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley

It’s appropriate.

“I heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley”

Trump is the clown, but I don’t see him crying. Not Trump. Never.

Our umbrellas won’t protect us from this storm I’m afraid. It’s time to take to the streets. Don’t wait for him to fire Mueller. We need to get out there.
