When Trump jokes about not attending a campaign rally because of a "bad hair day" on the afternoon of a MASSACRE of 11 Jews at a Pittsburgh synagogue by a right wing anti-Semite, days after 14 BOMBS were mailed to a Trump's Enemies list: Democratic former presidents, a vice president, critics, a Jewish philanthropist, the same week two African Americans were MURDERED by a white supremacist at a Krogers supermarket in Kentucky.... that is a SIGNAL to America, that NONE of this bothers him.
Wink wink.... "bad hair day."
None of this is normal. Yet, this putrid, un-presidential self-described "NATIONALIST" has been propped up by his own party. Imagine that. The fish stinks from the head down. America is seeing historic violent hate-crime under this pResident.
He is the president only of those who support him; the rest of us can all drop dead. He flames the fans of fear, hatred of what made America great: immigration.
How many of you reading this came over on the Mayflower? Me, neither.

I am hoping that Republicans of good will and good faith will see the light. This is not who we are as a nation. It's not too late to put the BREAKS on this destructive president. I am NOT talking about impeachment, I am talking about checks and balances, accountability. Whether or not you ever voted for a Democrat, please repudiate the normalization of hate.
Please, on November 6: Vote, Vote, Vote. For Democrats. Down the line.
FYI there's a vigil tonight at the United Synagogue of Hoboken (Park between 1st and 2nd) at 7 PM.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteI'm done with "normal"/"moderate"/"traditional" republicans who claim to dislike trump's rhetoric but approve of some/all of his policies. No more separating the two: if you buy one, you have in fact bought the whole package. if you buy the tax cuts, then you buy the hate. if you buy the Supreme Court judges, you buy the hate. period. you own it.
ReplyDeleteYes! Our president's corruption, bigotry, misogyny and homophobia are not a-la-carte menu choices. It takes constantan reminding, but folks need to remember he did not win the majority vote, and the votes he did get were largely due to Russian hacking and other causes. It's like we are living under old Hoboken politics on a national level.
DeleteAgree with you both! Thank you!
DeleteBlack milk of daybreak we drink it at evening
ReplyDeletewe drink it at midday and morning we drink it at night
we drink and we drink
we shovel a grave in the air there you won't lie too cramped
A man lives in the house he plays with his vipers he writes
he writes when it grows dark to Deutschland your golden hair Margareta
he writes it and steps out of doors and the stars are all sparkling, he whistles his hounds to come close
he whistles his Jews into rows has them shovel a grave in the ground
he commands us to play up for the dance.
Black milk of daybreak we drink you at night
we drink you at morning and midday we drink you at evening
we drink and we drink
A man lives in the house he plays with his vipers he writes
he writes when it grows dark to Deutschland your golden hair Margareta
Your ashen hair Shulamith we shovel a grave in the air there you won't lie too cramped
He shouts jab the earth deeper you lot there you others sing up and play
he grabs for the rod in his belt he swings it his eyes are so blue
jab your spades deeper you lot there you others play on for the dancing
Black milk of daybreak we drink you at night
we drink you at midday and morning we drink you at evening
we drink and we drink
a man lives in the house your goldenes Haar Margareta
your aschenes Haar Shulamith he plays his vipers
He shouts play death more sweetly this Death is a master from Deutschland
he shouts scrape your strings darker you'll rise then as smoke to the sky
you'll have a grave then in the clouds there you won't lie too cramped
Black milk of daybreak we drink you at night
we drink you at midday Death is a master aus Deutschland
we drink you at evening and morning we drink and we drink
this Death is ein Meister aus Deutschland his eye it is blue
he shoots you with shot made of lead shoots you level and true
a man lives in the house your goldenes Haar Margarete
he looses his hounds on us grants us a grave in the air
he plays with his vipers and daydreams Death is a master from Germany.
your golden hair, Margarete
your ashen hair, Shulamith
~Death Fugue (Todesfuge) by Paul Celan
The language is lyrical and seductive, and the repetition is comforting. Before long you stop wondering why the milk is black and just drink it and want more.
People who love language usually come to understand that it demands as much responsibility of them as a loaded gun. People who merely desire impact love language for its capacity for violence. They drink and drink.
The poem's great achievement is to displace your horror with an irresistible melody.
Celan's parents died in Romanian death camps.
The Trump era is the normalization of drinking black milk.
DeleteBlack milk is as unreal as you calling the only POTUS ever with blood Jewish kin who is lauded in Israel as it's most fervent supporter, an anti-semite. Almost as ridiculous ad you denying that you did the De Fusco Terrorist flyers. It's obvious you did it
DeleteIt's true...you've discovered my dark secret. Ever since I was castrated as a young lad, I live in a crawlspace in my mommy's basement. No woman will have me (since I lack male genitalia) --no woman except the inflatable kind. The problem is, I bang them so furiously they tear up after a week or two. I call myself "Darklord" because my basement crawlspace is dark, and I am Lord of Inflatables. Yes, I'm a regular latex lothario. Why do I haunt your site? Because I am lonely. It is dark here. And my latest date, Blow-up Betty, sprang a leak. Sssssssssssssss...
DeleteI'm wealthy, efucated and on the right side of history and morality. u are garbage and a wonderful foil. I love u
DeleteU can dish it Nancy, but can't take a poke at your nasty Photoshop bubble. You are the ultimate planting that you wretchedly deserve
DeleteGrafix avenger is the best material available for trolling. The only thing I troll. It's that inviting. Happy to to sit down with u and the Reporter and the HPD to discuss my hypothesis.
DeleteIt's a deal. Let's do it. I'll set it up.
DeleteContact me: Grafixavenger666@gmail.com
Go ahead, wipe it like a Crooked Hillary server. Proves the point
DeleteWhat's the matter, "Darklord"? You said you'd be "happy to" so I'll call Lt. Campbell tomorrow, and set up a meeting so you can share your "hypothesis." Are you afraid to reveal your identity to me? Do you think any of your communications here were inappropriate, that I might file a harassment complaint? I suppose anything is possible. Email me. I'll set up the meeting with Lt. Campbell. I'm calling him anyway to give him your IP. Cmon, it'll be fun. You obsessed prick.
