TRUMP IS A TRAITOR

We have a long had our suspicions. We know he is a liar with sociopathic tendencies who cared for nothing but himself. It also became more and more apparent he is delusional. But now, with the events of the last few days including today's press conference it is clear that he is a traitor. He is not indictable for treason but he is nonetheless a traitor. He has betrayed the best of everything this country has always stood for.

Meanwhile the Press is prattling about it and  unable to call a spade a spade. The Democrats appear to be doing nothing. The opposition needs to out -trump Trump. They need a strong man to appear daily on television and call him a traitor, a liar and probably a crook who has engaged in money-laundering, talking about his refusal to release his tax returns. Let's not forget that Trump probably prevailed because of all the"Earned Media" he received. He is still getting it. We need to beat him at that game.Right now the best man for the job is probably Joe Biden. But the Democrats need to choose a couple good young strong candidates, probably governors of states to begin to do the same thing. It needs to be a constant drumbeat. We need T-shirts with a new slogan "Trump–a Liar a Crook and a Traitor". For some reason three word slogans are particularly effective. As Dr. Seuss said," The time has come, The time is now"

Meanwhile how do we describe the hell or high water Trump supporters who are fazed by nothing he does? Certainly they are not those who we would loosely call liberals. They are also not traditional conservatives, most of whom detest Trump. They are certainly not our public intellectuals such as Thomas Friedman. Are they typically totally selfish people who are convinced they will get more or keep more from him? Are they just republicans who is will always vote for a republican candidate, even when he is not a Republican? Is there any political or ideological term that describes them, or at least most of them? I can't think of any. We need to outnumber and out- fight them.

When cancer invades your body you cannot just call it something else or hope that it goes away. It must be rigorously attacked.
