Donald Trump is America’s id.
He’s the embodiment of the ragged excesses of a perverted interpretation of the American Dream where wealth, power, and social status supplant rights, liberty, and equality.
He’s the one-dimensional ego-driven Hollywood movie villain who flaunts his deep-seated narcissism, rejects society’s moral and cultural values, dismisses the possibility of mutually beneficial outcomes, and crushes the weak and powerless in pursuit of his depraved ambitions.
He’s the type of man who considers fairness, kindness, empathy, honesty, gratitude, and humility to be signs of weakness.
He’s a moral and political nihilist who equivocates bigots with those who champion equality and subverts the traditions and legal and political institutions that have helped govern the United States for over two centuries.
His words and actions prove every day that his inauspicious rise to power is dangerous for the United States, and the world.
