DEVIL OR ANGEL?

"Devil or angel, I can’t make up my mind..". The Clovers – 1955

MID-WEEK NOTE

Take your pick. Not much ambiguity. No middle ground. These are among the many posts floating around

Meanwhile I accidently posted the following message.

I quickly sent the following mea culpa.

OOPS. I pushed the wrong button. I meant to save the message, not post it. I must confess that I am a F-----g Idiot. It’s often been said that good people on both sides of an issue can resonably disagree. However, statements like the above imply a hatred so visceral, that normal debate is impossible. You may reasonably disagree with some of Trump’s policies, (I certainly do) but the right has many reasons to support him. Close to 80 million F-----g Idiots voted for Donald Trump.

Let me say this in the simplest way possible (to use the phraseology of the poster above): When you drop F-Bombs and Hate – Bombs, and insult others with vulgar epitherts, you have run out of arguments and should not be taken seriously.

When you demonize and dehumanize your adversary, you become an avenging angel with a tarnished halo.

Here’s another I received.

Murdoch and the evil Roger Ailes irreparably damaged American culture and social discourse by deliberately promulgating fear and falsehoods through despicable scum like Rush Phlemball and that idiot Carlson. The Fox Hatework played a big part in putting Vladimer Putin's dirty whore in the White House. He is now delivering every single Putin demand to handover Ukraine to this Neo-Stalinist hoodlum. He isn't just Putin's agent and rent-boy. He's his slave. Murdoch helped make possible.

I know the person who wrote this. I like him. His side lost the last election. He’s frustrated. He’s angry. He’s venting. I understand. I even agree with him about Trump cozying up to mass murderer Putin. But calling the President, “Putin’s dirty whore” is not helpful.

CONSIDERING ALL THIS, WHY DO I SUPPORT DONALD TRUMP

HERE’S WHY

Wilber Alberto Rabanales Jose Christian Saravia Sanchez.

On February 25, 2025, these two illegal immigrants shot and killed JuanMiguel Sanchez in front of his home as they were attempting to steal a catalytic converter. Bill Melugin of Fox News reported, “ICE detainers on one suspect have been ignored 12 times in recent years.”

In the last few years Rabanales, a Guatemalan national, was arrested at least 15 times, on gun charges, multiple grand thefts, burglary and drug charges, along with multiple DUIs, conspiracy, felon in possession of a gun, possession of burglary tools, possession of meth, possession of stolen property and felony hit-and-run during a police pursuit.

Sanchez has been arrested at least a dozen times, mostly for grand theft, gun charges, drugs, burglary, kidnapping, possession of meth and possession of burglary tools, the sources said.

They were arrested a few days ago.

WHY are these two career criminals not in jail?

Answer – They live in Los Angeles, a Democrat run sanctuary city.

Answer - The Biden Administration opened the border to millions of unvetted illegals; these two were among them.

That’s why we see posts like the following:

He’s no saint. He’s a sinner, a bully, a liar and self-centered. Joe Biden is a spinner of fantastic tales, a liar, a plagiarist, and by a wide margin, the most corrupt and incompetent individual to ever reside in the White House.
