Trump justifies taking over DC police with claim that Democrats 'want transgender for everybody'

If you haven't heard by now, Trump has decided to take over the DC police and deploy the national guard in the Capitol city. He claims to be doing it because of crime even though the crime rate in DC has been going down. He has also threatened to do the same in other cities which, just like DC, have high populations of African Americans. 

It's racist pandering but of course the media will probably fail to mention that interesting point. They are too busy calling Trump's move extraordinary. They should be honest and call the move batshit crazy.   Or at least call it an attempt to take attention away from the Epstein Files. 

Speaking of batshit crazy, Trump held a press conference to justify his action. He was accompanied by Attorney General Pam Bondi and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.

And like he always does when having a press conference, Trump went on a wild tangent. This time, he went from telling lies about crime in DC to claiming that Democrats won't stand against crime because they want everyone transgender. 

Transcript:

“Probably won’t get one Democrat vote because they have no idea what they’re doing. That’s why they want men playing in women’s sports,” Trump said, while discussing seeking legislation to fight crime in D.C.. 

 “That’s what they — why they want transgender for everybody! Everybody transgender. And they — they’ve just got walloped in an election in a landslide, and they haven’t changed one thing,” Trump fumed, adding: I saw the other day that a certain gentlemen . . 

Is Hegseth simply smiling or just trying to suppress a laugh? Bondi has got a fixed expression on her face, but one wonders is she thinking "Lawd, hammercy. Hurry up and die so Vance can be my boss and I don't have to do shit like this anymore."

Either way,  I'm done with calling Trump incompetent. At this stage, it's like saying that humans need to break to live. Instead I'm blaming the voters. Some people like to say that Democrats are to blame for both of Trump's presidencies, but they are full of shit. They are either pundits too chickenshit to tell the truth or folks whose aim is not to tell the truth.

And that truth is voters are to blame for this. Our country is lazy and complacent. We take our votes for granted. We whine about those running while omitting how we run off good candidates because of nonsense like soundbites taken the wrong way. 

We think that when we vote, we are doing the candidate a favor. "The candidate has to earn my vote," I've heard some voters say.

No, dumbass. You aren't doing candidates a favor by voting for them. You are doing yourself a favor by putting someone in office who will help you.  And if you vote the wrong way, you will end up with an insane, incompetent asshole squawking some nonsense about political parties turning people transgender.

Like so.

I'm going to make a guess that like so many other times, Trump is going to fall on his face and it will be up to the right-wing propaganda ecosystem (led by Fox News of course) to clean up after him and make his latest nonsense into some semblance of sense. 

By now it's as predictable as Trump's tangents.
