Self-Evident

 


Yesterday, the government of President Trump sided with a horrific evil, a war criminal, an invader, and enemy of democracy, and Trump himself tried to tell his little lies about why he thought it was all right for him to do so.

And was corrected.

It is, after all, a little thing, an OBVIOUS thing, to tell the truth. But it isn't done often enough, and still less to his stupid, mulish face.  

Trump tried to say that why he did what he did was self-evident. It's an opaque answer hiding a basic truth--Trump is unfit for whatever reason you care to name, but among them, the truth is not with him. And a nation that would be "great" cannot be afraid of the truth. 

Macron also pointed out yesterday that they ceased talking with Putin after Bucha, to rub Trump's face in what it is he is trying to make a deal with, like a stupid boy signing his soul away to the devil. Does it make any impact of Trump? Probably not. But it should affect the conscience of people who still have one of those dusty, put-away with the good china things. 

As with truth, we could stand to use that a little more, as well.
