America last, not first
President Trump each time won the presidency with the promise of America First. But what was quite on full display last time and even more this time around is as if though the phrase America First is the last two words of a full sentence that Trump speaks, which goes as follows: I will destroy every country in the world but, America First.
Trump gave his ridiculous speech at the UN general assembly. I did not have the stomach to watch the full comedy show but I am sure somewhere he must have said how everyone predicted that he would lose but he won big, and beautiful too. But the parts of the speech that I was able to watch on social media did get me thinking. I was able to draw a direct line between what Trump said and what the problem with American democracy really is, and has been for a while.
Trump bashed the environmentalists. He expressed his anger against those countries that were supporting the efforts to tackle climate change. He had all sorts of names........
