My regular readers will know that I have a long history of some people thinking I am being 'controversial' - going against the grain of mainstream narratives (typically being proven correct). The evidence is/was all around and so the proof is/was generally present at the time I made the observations, but attention to detail is not always common. Let's potentially continue this 'fun' theme as I comment on Donald Trump!
Until Donald Trump ran for Presidential office I only knew him from vague memories of his book 'The art of the deal' since I grew up in the 1980s and also from seeing short clips of him on TV in various 'reality' shows. I had no real interest in him or what he represented. Once he ran for office, I naturally gave him more attention and was shocked to see not only such division surrounding him, but more alarmingly - the degree to which his background was clearly fabricated in order to amass personal power gain.
To be clear, I am not trying to push any other politician in place of Trump - I align to the principle of anarchy, which means absolutely nothing more than 'no rulers'. You do not have the right to rule me and I do not have the right to rule you - so we definitely don't have the right to give that power to someone else to act as our proxy. You cannot give what you do not have. No system based on such a fundamental lie will be life affirming.
My main point today is that we should not put anything past ANY powermonger - no matter how ludicrous it may sound at first.
If being President of the USA corporation was not enough, apparently now Trump is promoting himself as a Pope!
With various other voices in support:
The Trumpi-Christ
The few Christians I know are those who are more open minded and don't limit their thinking to what they told and that can also see that literal translations of what are clearly often symbolic messages in the Bible stories is a mistake. These people tend to view Trump and Elon Musk as heavily reflective of Anti-Christ ideology and intent.
I am not religious, though I do communicate with God directly internally. I recognise and feel that all religions have major errors and distortions in them, which can only be corrected by individuals who seek the light of truth and who are open to new understandings. That said, I do recognise the love of spirit and also that there are forces which oppose love in organised ways.
To me, any group that advocates and fuels mass murder is against love, period.
So, despite all the rhetoric and half truths spewed by Trump and Musk about saving America and protecing the common people - I don't buy it. Being someone who grew up in Europe and who studied History, I am well aware that most of the evil that was perpetrated through nations was done against a backdrop of similar false claims. There have always been naive people who eat up the lies and many of them are undercurrently aligned to evil, but will never openly admit it. The situation is perilous to say the least.
Some Jews in World War 2 are quoted as saying that they initially laughed at Hitler's brown shirts because they thought they had no power and looked ridiculous. Equally, many people thought the Zionist idea sounded good until they saw how it has played out in reality. When it comes to Trump, I strongly urge all to look beyond personal biases and fears to look at the evidence.
A Pack of Lies
Much has been written about Trump's grandiosity and tendency to lie. Sadly, his most ardent supporters are often either too blind or too invested in his alleged goals to be willing to accept reality.
To those with ears to hear and eyes to see, I say this:
Much of the image that has been created around Trump began with the book 'The Art of the Deal' which held him up to be a genius business man - exactly the kind of character that 1980s America loved. Only one problem, the author of it - Tony Schwartz - came out during Trump's first for presidency and publicly stated that the book is a pack of lies. Schwartz was broke and took Trump's money to create a work of fiction that promoted him and boosted his ego. Schwartz was highly apologetic and realised that he may have helped create a monster and had misled the world.
We should listen to Donald Trump's niece - a clinical psychologist - who wrote an entire book about his background and real story. She is the only person I have found with intimate knowledge of Donald Trump over a long time period who feels she can speak openly about him. She is also the only person in potentially such a position who has an academic understanding of psychology.
In her book she clearly maps out the creation of a textbook narcissist and potentially psychotic delusional. She also points out that Trump's wealth mostly originates in his Father's dodgy dealings after World War 2, taking taxpayer money to build homes for poorer people. According to her, the homes turned out to be low quality and Trump senior was a horrific landlord. Donald Trump has long spread the apparent lie that he made his money due to business acumen and was never given much from his family.
Top Tips for Apocalypse
Apocalypse means 'revealing', it does not mean 'complete destruction'. In a world built on so many lies, revealing the truth can result in destruction - but it should mean destruction of that which cannot stand up any more because it is based in denial.
To me, we are definitely inside the predicted apocalypse. While I do not subscribe to ancient religious books and ideas as being correct in a blanket way, I do agree with some aspects and this is one of them. The ancients understood the patterns on Earth well enough to know where they were headed over time and so were able to predict this time period. It's important to note that thise period and pattern was not something that strictly came from Christianty - many, many tribes around the world have long held similar understandings.
So what do we make of a situation where Trump has openly lied in so many ways, about so many things and yet still sustains support from quite a lot of people? That in and of itself is nothing new - this unfortunate pattern has been present with many government leaders in the past (generally not leading to good outcomes). What is new, however, is the drive to hold this person up as a messianic figure and to even suggest he should run a world religion. This has never happened in modern recorded history, to my knowledge.
Wars have actively been fought right throughout history to separate religion from government because the combination of the two is so problematic. I am in no way surprised to see Lindsey Graham trying to reverse this, as he is clearly one of the most depraved psychopaths in positions of power globally - he seems to do very little other than call for some new kind of violence.
The good news is that sufficient UNDERSTANDING, coupled with aligned decision making, eliminates suffering. Regardless of how dysfunctional things are, we can learn to correct them and attain real balance.
Just by opening to the possibility that NO-ONE is beyond being involved in the creation of evil, you help to end evil. No matter how attached you are to the idea that an individual is 'great' or even 'holy', you must never allow yourself to deny the possibility that they may be deceiving you or may actually have more to learn than you have realised.
Having studied this topic in depth for decades, I have concluded that decentralisation is an essential step towards living out a real balance of a kind that the planet has never known. Centralisation of power maximises the risk of harm being done. Decentralisation allows much more individual freedom and more capacity for people to solve problems in ways that work for them. Indeed, the biggest problems we tend to face will come from individuals and their supporters who have centralised power - stepping outside of integrity and doing harm to others.
We all need to become empowered and empathic enough to understand real intents. This is the only way to make use of our innate compass that will help us navigate to lasting success and peace.
