daddy issues

I said, over 2.5 years ago . . . that trump would "enable" the darkest underbelly of this country to "speak up"

I said he would "normalize" behavior that collectively we have, to a large degree, kept in check

trump is a charismatic dude, give him that, and a talented speaker -- so he gets by with saying things others might not

this makes those "he speaks to" love him all the more

he ain't no fool

but he twists things around, like the carney con man within that animates his spirit

he's out for himself

and he thinks he can't be stopped

and so, like all narcissists who are given multiple chances others might not, he pushes the envelope

thinking no one will ever slow down his train

this makes him bold and his boldness and charisma rev people up

I get why the people who like him "like him"

I also understand, to some degree, the madness that drives him onward

he's dangerous

and failing to see he's using everyone is dangerous

to those unable to see through his game

he makes those in the dark feel they have "a friend"

but he's using them and he feels disdain for them, most of all

the people who love him most are the ones who loves least

fractured people seeking daddy's love and the daddy love they have desperately grasped

holds them in disdain

and will abuse them

when he feels like it

this is a daddy issue

make no mistake

and Freud tells us all we need to know about the how and the why

he is the stepfather of the abused child who buys the kids candy and gives them a cheap toy

they need love want love and feel the candy IS love

but the stepfather only wants to fuck the young mother until he grows tired of her and has taken what he wants

then he will kick the young kids to the curb

and so, he makes promises he has no intention of keeping

in hopes he can buy time to rape and pillage a few hours longer

this can't end well for anyone
