Frank's Musings

If you support Donald Trump as a political leader,  you want to follow someone who has no respect either for your intelligence or for the rule of law,  The American people have created a system of rules by which we have agreed to live in order to maintain a wildly successful national community in an order that benefits the overwhelming  majority of us; and we firmly believe that we are smart enough to adjust that system when it makes sense to the overwhelming majority of us to do so

Petulant three-year-olds may still act in disregard of others’ interests until they learn that a community cannot work that way.  (It is for not teaching that lesson to their son that the parents of the Oxford High School shooter are criminally charged with involuntary manslaughter.)  Trump never grew out of that childish behavior.

Like the bankers and investors who have financed Trump’s fanciful projects, libertarian-leaning voters have elected him President and are on the verge of selecting him as the Republican Party leader for the third time.   All the perpetrators of those delinquencies are also guilty, at least, of facilitating the chaos and destruction he has caused throughout his career.  They may not be criminal, but they surely are irresponsible.
