Aside from all of this about Trump, one image fascinates (and irritates) me.

During the 1968 Mexico City Olympics, two American medalists mounted the platform and gave the Black Power salute -- a salute commensurate with the philosophy of the Black Panther Movement (which, if studied PROPERLY, was interested in the welfare and education of black and white women, NOT in destruction).

So click this:

And see their fists raised HIGH, with knuckles to the side: proud, defiant, concerned about the welfare of their brothers and sisters.

Now, compare with this fist, raised...

He does it at the wrong time, for no purpose, not proud, not fully raised, turned inward, and like a coward without any conviction.

God, I hate this f***er

Mr X is not alone in his hatred of the orange sewage who occupied the white house. I hope they find enough damaging information to lock up Rump and his sleazy enablers. The GOP are a crime family, not a political party.
