Character Shortage

How many tweets would a twit tweeter tweet if a twit tweeter weren't a twit? Twirl on that for a while.

The Twit in Chief is on a roll lately and the resulting tweetstorms are proof climate change is real.  Just ask the teenage girl on the receiving end of one of his character limited diatribes.

And by character I'm not referring to the number and letter symbols that make up his tantrums. I'm referring to that thing Martin Luther King wished we judged people by besides the color of their skin.

But how do you judge a person's character if they have none at all?  For about 30% of the American public, the answer is make him supreme leader. See what happens when we take civics out of schools?

Math tells me 70% is larger than 30% every time.  Reality tells me half of that 70% is too engrossed in YouTube to calculate the difference and think Martin Luther King is a basketball team owner in California.

Speaking of California, remember when Republicans claimed to be for states' rights?  Turns out, they're only about states' rights when the states are firmly Republican.

Here's how it works.  If a state like Mississippi wants to limit the number of people voting, especially the ones with skin tones darker than David Dukes, they're free to do so.

But if a state like California wants to protect the health and well-being of its citizens with tougher environmental regulations, then the Twit in Chief will do everything he can to repeal them.

It works this way because Mississippi is a reliable Republican state.  California, which gave us both Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan, has been quite a bit bluer lately.

Does that sound unfair and somewhat hypocritical?  Of course it does, because that's the Republican way. 

When minorities and Democratic donors break the law, throw the book at them. When Republicans break the law, rewrite the book.

As long as Yertle McConnell is in charge of the Senate, Commander Bonespurs can break any law he chooses.  And he's chosen a bunch.

Now the Democrats who oversee the Congress are stuck between a rock and a hard place.  They should go after the Donald whose entire adult life has been about breaking laws. 

He used a foreign power, our greatest rival since World War II, to get himself elected.  He's enriched himself openly while in office.  He's clearly used the power of his office to impede justice.

And now he's admitted to bribing a foreign leader with money congress had allocated to that country to dig up dirt on a political rival.

But the Congress can only bring charges.  It takes the Senate to set a trial and Yertle would never put a Republican president on trial.  Yertle has never once believed in country over party. His character display is as limited as the Twit in Chief.

When Twitter doubled its character limit from 140 to 280 a few years ago, it effected millions of users.

But not Donald Trump.  A man with no character has no limits. Doubling zero equals zero every time.
