Psychiatry – Page 57 – Art Smukler, MD

Every year 2 million wildebeests and 800,000 zebra and gazelles form a super herd and race 0ver 500 miles through Kenya — Masa Mara, and Tanzania, –Serengeti, in search of lush grass. They follow the rains. Each year 250,000 Wildebeests die from exhaustion, malnutrition or dehydration.

Soon over 50 Republican Senators can join the pilgrimage and follow their selfish, arrogant leader into oblivion. The more he panders himself to foreign despots who have given him billions of dollars, the more passive and stupid they have become.

Think about it. At least the almost 3 million African animals are in search of food and survival, a sort-of noble cause. The 50 Republican senators are in search of a smile from their lying, uneducated leader whose only object is to feed himself and his family more money at the expense of decency and logic.

The House of representatives have replaced 40 mindless Republicans. Soon many mindless Republican senators will be gone.

There is hope. It only takes a handful of men and women in the senate to change this craziness. We were born with brains. USE YOURS! DON’T BE A WILDEBEEST!

Please forget politics.

Both red and blue parties have good points and bad points. The two-party system has been a mainstay of our country for over 200 years, but never have we endured the type of immaturity and lack of historical perspective that Trump eschews. He is a man who denies scientific fact and is a BLATANT LIAR. The fact that good, caring republicans support him is enabling this behavior. The Republican congress still can stand up and do something before citizens take to the streets, like back in the sixties during the Viet Nam war. We all knew that Nixon was a liar and WE DID SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

Getting rid of Trump doesn’t mean that we get rid of conservative ideas. It means we don’t accept a liar who refuses to learn from history and only thinks of himself. President Obama made many mistakes during his two terms in the White House. But, no one ever accused him of not putting the country first. That’s what a president does.

Have you ever heard anyone say to their children, Trump is our president. Mommy and daddy want you start acting like a president — lie, cheat, call your friends names, have sex with other women when your wife is pregnant, don’t serve in the military, and don’t honor the dead if it’s raining outside…
