US Imperialism In Latin America

Donald Trump Clearly Most Dangerous President In American History, Bar None!

For many years, there have been psychologists, psychiatrists, and other mental health professionals who have warned that President Donald Trump was highly dangerous and reckless, in his rhetoric, behavior, and actions, is an incessant liar, and totally unhinged and incoherent.

Trump has demonstrated he has no ethics, morals, scruples, humanity, decency, compassion, or empathy, and he has shown clearly that he is a racist, misogynist, nativist, Islamophobe, homophobe, and despite so called “friendship” with Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, has strong record of utilizing antisemitism at times.

He has undermined our national security and defenses; our legal and judicial system; and the social justice state that began in the Progressive Era of Theodore Roosevelt and continued through the New Deal of Franklin D. Roosevelt, the Great Society of Lyndon B. Johnson, and beyond.

He has allowed the system of mutual security through alliances with NATO and Asian nations to be left in tatters, as he consorts with dictators around the world, including Vladimir Putin of the Russian Federation, but also other authoritarian nations, while undermining democracy, and utilizing the old concept of US Imperialism, and willingness to use force against international law.

He has enriched the super wealthy, while working to undermine the middle class, and with no concern about those who are poor and disadvantaged, and has damaged our environment, health care, consumer protection, labor rights, educational and cultural institutions, and worked on wiping out immigration in a manner equivalent of the shortsightedness of a century ago.

He repesents a threat to the nation and the world, and action should be commenced to remove him from office as a danger that must be recognized by those in authority through legal channels.

Sadly, likely, no action will be taken, as the people around Donald Trump are totally sycophants, more interested in their own financial and political advancement, and they may end up responsible for a disastrous Holocaust of massive proportions, that will condemn them in history, but cause great harms to tens of millions of Americans, along with massive numbers around the world.

Trump Action Against, And Plans For Venezuela, A Violation Of International Law, And Revives Image Of US Imperialism In Western Hemisphere!

The decision of Donald Trump and his Cabinet to take military action to remove Nicolas Maduro as President of Venezuela, and fly him and his wife to the United States for trial on drug charges, is a brazen action against international law, and encourages similar military actions by Russia (Ukraine), and China (Taiwan) in their so called “Spheres of Influence”.

While one cannot be sad about Maduro being removed from power, it seems clear that Trump intends for the US to control the future of Venezuela for an extended period of time, instead of handing over control to Venezuelan political leaders.

The aim is clear, to control and exploit the vast oil reserves of Venezuela for American benefit.

This action of military intervention was done without consultation with Congress, and violates the War Powers Act of 1973, and it gives the US the old image of being the Imperialist nation in Latin America, which has a long, disgraceful history for the past two centuries.

To believe that the takeover militarily by the United States will occur without any reaction within Venezuela is to believe in fairy tales, as the economic and personal cost of American military lives is quite certain in a negative fashion.

For a President who had claimed he believed in isolationism, to switch his views diametrically opposite, makes one realize this is all about money (Oil) and ego!
