Trump vs Ramos


Gaetana Caldwell-Smith- author
Once again, I am resurrecting my UBUIBEME blog mainly as a vehicle where I can post my opinions on various subjects that require more space than on Facebook or Twitter. This way, I can go on, and on, and on , , , , , ,

What inspired me was the-I hate to mention its (I don't say "his" as I'm not sure its human) name-I'll call it T-Rump- or The Rump-  The Rump's press conference where it had its goons escort Univision's Jorge Ramos out.   I have been watching Jorge Ramos on Univision since the '8os.  I would watch telenovelas to help me learn Spanish. Then Ramos's news show.  He is a most respected member of the TV news media.  T-Rump shouted him down, insulted him.  T- Rump accused Ramos of "ranting and raving."  The Rump was the one ranting and raving- watch the video, look at this photo.  Ramos patiently waited his turn, T-Rump skipped over him.  Ramos called him on it.  Hence the egregious verbal attack and Ramos's subsequent removal (Granted, after a while, he was allowed back in).  Ramos maintained his dignity throughout.

T-Rump (r,) vs Ramos (l), security in rear. at Press Conference.
The Rump represents everything wrong with America today. Bloated on many levels- especially in world-wide military consumerism, corporate funding-  and hysterical in dealing with foreign countries-the Middle East- and its people,(except for Australia, most of Europe and China, but not Russia), the economy, civil rights, voting rights, social services, women's rights, climate change, and more,

T-Rump- is an insult to all living beings - flora or fauna- and inanimate objects- minerals, the tangible and intangible.  It is an obstreperous boor: disgusting, misogynistic, narcissistic, piggish, self-aggrandizing, and despicable.  T-Rump cannot help how it looks, physically.  It cannot change its eye spacing- too close together, or shape- small- giving it a mean, hateful look,  A cosmetician could do something about its facial coloring.  Perhaps it tried.  Still its face is the color of raw pork sausage.  A plastic surgeon could correct its predatory, permanently puckered, perennially sucking mouth-  again, maybe one had tried.  Little can be done about its massive haunch of beef head, except cut it off,  Perhaps it believes that its fake, gossamer, comb-over strawberry-blonde thatch lends it an attractive,  carefree, windblown aire.  But no.

T-Rump is an outrageous, odious, lumbering creature.  In short: a grandstanding, loud-mouth bully.   Every weak, insecure, scared, put-upon kid wants the school thug to like them, which accounts for  T-Rump's accommodating, adoring, blind, ignorant, and unconscious following.  To them, I offer some advice: Grow up, grow a brain and get a sense of your own worth.
