STRONG ARMING AMERICA’S
LIFE, LIBERTY & PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS

Hey, everyone, let’s shine the light on the Republican “control, control and  control” philosophy… “controlling” every aspect of American life at the expense of…

• American’s human right to walk to the beat of their own drummer,
• American’s human right chart their own, God-given, Free Will through self determination and
• American’s human right to “live” their own Life, Liberty and Pursuit of Happiness…
• Subject only to the legal maxim that, “My fist ends where your nose begins” (literally and figuratively)

Example ??? What business is our “sexuality” to Trump and his sycophants ??? Trump the P_ _ _y grabber. Trump, the sexual molester of E. Jean Carroll. Trump, the orchestrater of the felony ”cover upper” of the Stormy Daniels’ sex’s-capade.

Repeat. What business is our “sexuality” to Trump and his sycophants ??? In the first day of Law School at the University of Detroit in 1969, Professor Allan Sultan asked the class a question that enlightened the entire class. The question ??? “What right does anyone in this class have to complain about what consenting adults do in the privacy of their own bedroom” ??? The question answers itself !!! Too bad our mentally challenged President and his lackeys are so unenlightened that they don’t understand… That they are not our Mothers, not our Fathers, not our spiritual guides, not our confessors and, certainly, not our moral leaders.

• What right does Trump have to manage American’s sexual lives in the privacy of our own bedrooms ???
• What right does Trump have to micro manage the past by rewriting America’s history books with his own subjective and erroneous, White Supremacist’s beliefs ???
• What right does Trump have to micro manage the futures of students at our public Universities by telling University Professors what to teach and the Universities what student guidelines to adopt ???
• What right does Trump have to micro manage the present by telling Major League baseball’s Cleveland Guardians to revert back to the Cleveland “Indians” and telling NFL football’s Washington Commanders to revert back to the Washington “Redskins” (or suffer financial consequences) ???
• What right does Trump have to tell American Corporations like Intel to fire their CEO (Li-Bu-Bu Tan) ???
• What right does Trump have to tell Cracker Barrel restaurant what their Corporate logo should be ???
• What right does Trump have to “lean on” the Alumni of the United States Military Academy (West Point) to renege on their “already-made” decision to honor Tom Hanks with the Sylvanus Thayer Award. Why ??? Because Hanks is (according to Trump) “woke.” Before Trump, an Officer and a Gentleman’s word was written in stone. You could take it to the bank. Now, America’s service academies can emulate Trump and refuse to be men and women of their word (when it’s convenient for them to avoid their promises and commitments).

You talk about over the top controlling, right-wing wokeness. Trump can’t be any more woke… as he brands his own Ignorance and his own Neanderthal, Un-enlightened, strong-arming as… Just Making America Great Again by marching America backwards to embrace Trump’s own wishy-washy, lack of character. Who, in their right mind, would want Trump to micro manage the lives of us Americans ???

• When Trump was managing his own businesses, he went through six bankruptcies including a Casino and got out of repaying the $750 million, tax-free dollars he borrowed from the New York Banks. A stand-up guy, that Trump.
• When Trump was managing his own Trump University, he close the doors and later agree to pay $25 million to the students he defrauded. A class act that Trump guy.
• When Trump was managing his own Charitable Foundation, he ripped off charitable funds and used that “tax free” money for (among other things) Mar a Lago art work… until he was caught and then signed a “consent” agreement, promising to never start up another Charitable Foundation in New York. A winner that Trump guy.

Let the Journalist of America better mobilize to tell the story of what’s going on. When a pall of fear (and Bull_ _ _ _ libel settlements) paralyzes the right of the free press, American Democracy dies. Hey Detroit Free Press let’s take the gloves off. Hey Detroit Free Press, let’s take the gloves off Detroit Free Press journalist, Mitch Albom, and let him write some columns of substance. Not meaningless pieces about the language of civility. Not “who cares” pieces about social etiquette. Not debates about both siderisms. Not salutary pieces about the need for all of us to get along and sing Kumbaya by the fireplace. Let Mitch (and the other Free Press editorial writers) write about Trump’s control of Mitch’s University, Columbia. Let Mitch write about the slaughter and starvation of innocent Palestinians while America stands by yawning “Ho Hum” or “Go get ‘em Pol Pot Netanyahu,” a true Patriot.

Detroit Free Press, don’t let the fear of Trump’s threats and reprisals for exercising your 1st Amendment Freedom of the Press trump publishing what needs to be said.
