If you are paying attention to what is happening in America, and not receiving all of your “facts” from television. If you do, you are unaware of Trump’s true goal; to destroy the country which was the dream of our founding fathers. He began with constant attacks on what the creators of our nation considered the most important element in the law of the land; the first amendment. His leadership of the white nationalist movement attacked the reason for establishing a new nation; individual rights, and equality for all Americans.

Trump needed a blueprint in June of 2015 when he declared his candidacy. He knew where to find sources for his ultimate goal.

He was fully aware that democracy would not work in his plan. 

In 2005 Trump took his ‘Miss Universe Pageant’ to Moscow for the first time. There is little doubt that during that event which was watched by millions of people around the world was not attended by President Vladimir Putin. I am convinced that they began a relationship over several days which expanded into a plan to destroy democracy in America, and that the ultimate goal was a presidency for Trump.

Putin was aware that by offering the weak-minded Trump praise that he could convince him that democracy impeded the ultimate goals of billionaires like himself. Putin convinced Trump that only a ‘new world order’ would insure the success of those who mattered; white and wealthy men.

In 2015 Trump began his plan to end the America of our founding fathers; my America. His first effort was to collude with Putin. His second was to adopt the beliefs of Adolf Hitler in the 1930’s.

Hitler based his control of the people of Germany on two factors. Tell a lie often enough and the people will believe it to be the truth. Secondly, control the press and offer the people alternative facts which will become reality.

Trump has proven that he discounts democratic leaders from all developed nations, and supports dictators and tyrants. He continues to protect Putin, and refuses to apply sanctions against Russia which have been approved by the great majority of congress. He has expressed his admiration for other tyrants including Turkey’s Recep Tyrrip Erdogan, the Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte, and the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia. Much of this might be related to the fact the there are plans in each of these nations to build Trump properties. Can you say “ethics violations,” and “treason?”

Trump is not very bright, but he knows that the guidance of Putin and Hitler will ensure that he accomplishes his goals.

The principles and ideals of America oppose the wealthy. When the working class succeeds, the wealthy find fewer excuses to buy more 40 million dollar homes, or a justification for buying more 400 dollar bottles of wine for their lunches and dinners. Fascists and dictators only flourish when democracy no longer exists. Trump’s plan is to ensure that old, white, fake Christians continue to control the future of our nation.

Hitler is cheering from his grave, and Putin is pulling Trump’s strings.

Please vote in November; it’s our last chance to save America.
