Trump/McConnell Shutdown: Psychosis, Mental Derangement, Inhumanity, Sadism

The political situation that currently abides in the United States bears discussing on the basis of mental fitness and the wellness of our nation.

Trump and Republicans have shut down the government with bragging rights. If you are a US taxpayer, and supported the Tea Party movement years ago and expected the Republicans to be fiscally accountable to drive down the debt they smeared the Democrats for causing? Then you are mentally deranged. Sorry, if that is a blunt statement, but truth is the way to healing and wellness. And your mental derangement is the same as the Trump/McConnell's psychosis. Here's why.

The Tax "Reform" Act the Trump/Republicans passed has added trillions of dollars of debt to the budget and raised the average US citizen's tax bill, not lowered it. The billionaires of the nation, whom the poor and average US citizens now subsidize with billionaire welfare, received millions in tax breaks. The Mercers, friends of Steve Bannon and once proud owners of corrupt Cambridge Analytica (a data firm the FBI has records of involvement in 2016 election machinations with Russians) received well needed tax relief.

Mercer owed US taxpayers a staggering $7.5 billion. With the tax break he most probably has relieved his tax burden now subsidized by US underclasses. Is it any wonder he helped elect Trump by any means necessary using the book Clinton Cash (effected by him, Steve Bannon and others) to smear Hillary Clinton from here to eternity? His tax bill surely got resolved as we carry his load. US citizens have been robbed of what was rightfully theirs to fund the government disproportionately. The underclasses hold the bag while billionaires use BitCoin, dark money centers, offshore accounts, shell corporations, Deutsche Bank and Cypress Bank (hello Wilbur Ross shareholder in CB) to money launder funds they stole from Russian citizens and US citizens they don't want on record.

The government now is going bankrupt. Welcome to Trump/McConnell psychosis, an ever spiraling destruction of their mental health and wellness and ours. Surely, they should commit suicide immediately, instead of this slow process of delusional thinking, directed suicidal behavior, and subverting their own interests which is to say the nation's interests. Unless they are foreign nationals, the Trump/McConnell shutdown is self-harm on a grand scale that impacts everyone in the nation, regardless of bank account.

Economic injustice is at the heart of the Trump/Republican shutdown, now in its 35th day. Billionaires like Trump are largely inviolate and untouched, so they believe. The shutdown does not impact them financially. They received millions in tax cuts. Wilbur Ross yesterday chided harmed federal workers for not getting bank loans to tie them over. The man who is a large shareholder of Cypress Bank, the Putin money laundering bank, is mentally infirm to make such a comment. And the man is Secretary of Commerce? God help us! The poor (if you are a federal worker you are poor) cannot afford bank loans (The micro lending that Mohammed Yunes won a Nobel Peace Prize for is not popular in the US. So micro lending is out.).

To identify how Federal workers are poor is explained in the following discussion. Let us use proportionate comparisons. The billionaire class population that received the tax breaks number a handful of individuals out of the total number of US citizens. Yet this handful owns the largest portion of the wealth of the US. Without this handful, US taxpayers are impoverished, like a third world nation. This is economic warfare that has been going on for years, The New Civil War, if you will primarily established by Reganism. The war is to wrench as much from the Middle Class and Upper Middle Class through sub rosa declines in living standards, rises in inflation, declines in purchasing power, rises in taxes disproportionately giving the bulk of taxation burden to the underclasses while allowing off shore accounts, to serve as tax havens. That is money that could be used for the US budget but will never make it to our nation.

US citizens love the nation who are the Federal Workers. We despise those who in the WH and congress who claim to represent us but only represent foreign adversarial nations (Russia, Saudia Arabia) and the billionaire class.
Thus, in 2019, even if you have 10 million to leave to your progeny, you are not only not wealthy, your money doesn't even begin to compare to the wealth of the billionaire class. Proportionately, you are really not better off but are a few stone throws away from bankruptcy. If Republicans continue to gut healthcare and you get sick, all that money will be exhausted on paying for treatments. Indeed, wellness, mental and physical is predicated on financial wellness, first. Excepting the handful of billionaires whose financial stability guarantees them their human rights of medical access (the right to wellness is not a right, but a privilege enforced by wealth, according to Republicans/Mitch McConnell/Trump who are in lock step with the medical industrial complex), the underclasses especially those who think they have money, have no rights. Not having the right to choose one's doctor regardless of cost, is no right at all. To think the constitution gives us this right is a canard. Billionaires have that right. Everyone else does not. Welcome to The New American Slavery. US Citizens will not tolerate this New American Slavery no matter how hard Republicans try to jam it down our throats. The handwriting is on the WALL, and Republican/Trump/Putin psychosis has blinded them to sound, mental wellness.

Continuing on the subject of healthcare, the medical industrial complex charges unseemly prices for prescriptions and medical procedures. Financial insecurity for all US citizens on the basis of Republican policies about healthcare is a real threat for all not in the billionaire class. Considering that we US taxpayers gave them millions in tax breaks, we are paying for the billionaires' healthcare privileges while destroying our own rights to life and healthcare. Thus, proportionately, the ones least able to gain health are not insured and of course, they are the most likely to get sick and die as they will not be able to recover easily getting no treatment or bad treatment. The ones most able to be "cured" will be "cured" all the more quickly and their physical bodies will continue. It's too bad their mental derangement will increase as a result of the egregious and inhuman inequities. They unconsciously know. And this contributes to their psychosis, in a never ending cycle. Their behaviors give them away. Healthy folks who embrace wellness are generous. The psychotic abide in isolation, hatred and restriction.
Federal workers protest. Polls reveal US taxpayers credit Trump/Republicans for shutdown; they reject the wall sand see it as inhuman. (Getty images, see the site).
As long as this situation abides, the mental derangement of the billionaire class will only worsen. And eventually, that psychosis they demonstrate which at its base is not only genocidal but suicidal, will destroy them and take many of us with them. Since there are more in the other classes that are younger, healthier and mentally sentient and coherent, the underclasses will survive proportionately. The billionaires who have their own progeny will still number a handful.

The delusional lie that the shutdown does not impact the billionaire class is a particularly "in your face lie," if one has the eyes to understand how. First, corporations that depend on the health of the consumer class to keep them going are losing millions of dollars every day. Delta Airlines is an example. Each of the Federal workers who Trump/McConnell have made into slaves is not buying what they used to buy. Their mortgages are collapsing which will impact the banking industry. The small feeder businesses that relied on them, contractors that number in the millions are calculating losses exponentially. Their losses impact those they contract out to and buy from and that impacts the others they contract out to and do business with. The domino effect is now reaching a point of no return.

From this shutdown, businesses will go bankrupt. People will die. They are already dying on the border where the impact of this continues and the families and jailed children are being neglected and die. Federal workers cannot afford their medications which has a direct impact on their job performance as does the untold stress of encroaching financial insolvency. The incalculable misery caused by the psychotic McConnell/Trump shutdown because there "must be a wall," is a enslavement to unwellness, physical, emotional, psychological.

The New American Slavery that Trump/McConnell have imposed on the federal workers (many Southern workers supported Trump) is inhuman. For not only does the slavery impact the workers who must spend money to work for nothing, it impacts those who would contract to them to spend and not be paid and never be paid, thus increasing the slavery caused by Trump/McConnell to millions of individuals and of course corporations who depend upon consumers (the airlines and travel industry are being ravaged).

At least the Slave Economy of the South had a basis.There was a logic to it. There is no logic to The New American Slavery that forces US citizens to be slaves to pay for the privilege of being slaves if they choose to be federal workers. Oh, by the way, by now, the costs to the federal budget for luxuriating and indulging in Trump/McConnell's psychosis has now exceeded what the wall price was. To reopen the government will cost much more, in fact in the billions. The trillions of US debt increases. So the Tea Party Republicans who scream that Democrats spend? They have proven themselves psychotic, delusional. Why give any money to Trump/McConnell for an absurdity wall that is borne out of political agendas (that very may well be conflicts of interest-Trump friends will benefit from its building) and maintained by psychosis. More money will be needed, more and more and more for a wall of steel slats, or concrete or reeds? The more US taxpayers pay for contracts for this elusive wall that doesn't work, the more trillions Republicans are willing to spend. Entailing the US Taxpayer? Why?  What is causing Trump/McConnell to take such an illogical, intractable position that Nancy Pelosi and other Democrats have sanely pointed out to them again and again?

NYC protest 1/21/2017 (Carole Di Tosti)
It is beyond logic. A wall must be built as an emergency? It should have been funded before the tax breaks to billionaires bankrupted the budget. The wall being built because of caravans? More people now are going to Mexico for healthcare than illegal migrants coming here and Mexico welcomes us and is becoming enriched. For Mexico and those looking for cheap, good healthcare,t's a win/win. Capitalism at work for Mexico. Too bad there is no free market capitalism in the US. Only Billionaires enslaving the underclasses in The New American Slavery.

Ann Coulter is adamant in upholding the Trump psychosis. Ann Coulter psychotic? Well, the rationale follows. A wall prevents people from coming here. Really? They are tunneling under, climbing over, flying over, boating to our coasts and bringing drugs in from  Canada. So a physical barrier only benefits the demented for whatever reason: Ann Coulter, Rush Limbaugh and Trump/McConnell as their cronies whom they promised contracts to and wait with hands outstretched to construct this "barrier" which is a waste of our money. This is US citizen financial enslavement with no benefits.

Trump's promised wall claims are lies. Mexico will never pay because the leaders of that government are mentally sound. So while US citizens are made slaves. They and go to food banks because they are forced to work and spend to get to work for nothing in return, impoverishing their bank accounts. The same applies  for contractors and corporates like Delta Airlines, etc., while Trump/McConnell are incapable of making a decision despite the Democrats putting up bills they refused, despite passing a bill in the Senate a month ago that funded the government. Trump on TV owned the Shutdown and McConnell is silent; silence is acquiescence, agreement. So McConnell's doing nothing is agreement with Trump. Meanwhile, the situation is now dire, for all of us are impacted, regardless of how much money billionaires have in their bank accounts. Not seeing the truth of this is a blindness, a psychosis. It is an inhumanity that is sadistic and masochistic. And there is no cure for that psychosis. None!

Say a billionaire gets on his private plane. He still has to depend on Air Traffic Controllers to land him, and if not, is he so sure he can avoid a mid air crash with a poor man's airliner? Aviation is not only Air Traffic Control, it is also contractors at airports who maintain planes. If they are understaffed as it is and now working ungodly hours for no pay? Is it safe for billionaire businessmen to fly, risking a poorman's plane might hit him or cause delays at an airport? Is it safe for AirForce One to fly? It used to be flying was safer than driving. Things have changed with the shutdown.

Would a billionaire put up with working for no pay? Would Trump? Absolutely not. He is a billionaire. Yet because "he can," he will force the poor who need a paycheck to suffer the indignity. Well, bottom line is this. Remember his promises? Soooo much winning. He alone was the white savior who would bring prosperity to this nation. Really? Is the Shutdown prosperity and good faith building?

US Taxpayers are helping Federal workers with donations and volunteerism to food banks. They know it is not enough.
 How long do you trust the underclasses 95% of the nation to gladly accept an enslavement that is worse than the enslavement of Southern Planters who at least guaranteed food and shelter to their slaves. Those planters saw their slaves as having a tremendous worth to them. Slaves were more valuable than the poor whites who were lazy and refused to work because they didn't "want to be slaves."  Meanwhile, poor whites had no value. How many died abused and abusing, predators of their own families because they were useless and valueless. The same abides today. But Federal workers will not put up with this, though white supremacists descended from poor whites would because they have the same psychosis as McConnell/Trump. If white supremacists who are the underclass still support Trump/McConnell/Republicans? They are psychotic and delusional still expecting to prosper. I rest my case.

Slaves knew their value. Do Mitch McConnell and Donald Trump understand the import of what they are doing, above all, to themselves as US Citizens? For they are rendering all races, creeds and colors valueless, proclaiming their work is valueless. This is an eye opener. If they didn't know it before, US citizens are being shown what their work is worth, what their selves are worth, what they mean to Mitch McConnell, Republicans and Trump and his cabinet. Can you still support someone who deems you of no worth, especially when you work for them, pay their salaries while you are stiffed? (Congress are "essential workers," don't forget.
For the Republican Party, suckers have become psychotics. Barnum's empire is done forever as will be Trump's
 How many Republicans have foregone their paychecks as Democrats have? Has McConnell? Has McConnell's wife or his other relatives that Trump recently gave jobs to?) Meanwhile, TSA are non essential workers? The Coast Guard that do a fabulous job of keeping our borders safe on the high seas are non essential workers? Law enforcement? US Prosecutors like my cousin, non essential workers who try the very criminals that Trump supposedly is building the wall to keep out? Really? Psychosis. Supporting Republicans who are psychotic along with Trump? Go ahead, be psychotic like them. As for me and my house, God gives a sound mind. I will worship The LORD.

This New American Slavery is a lie under God and under the laws of our constitution to which we pledge allegiance to under God. The Trump/McConnell shutdown will bring McConnell/Trump/Republicans to their knees because it is against our freedoms and right to work and be paid. They will be brought down, if not by impeachment, by election or by lawsuit for the Trump/McConnell shutdown is unconstitutional. By the time the Republicans decide to accept Nancy Pelosi's sound plan, the loss of money and respect of the US taxpayer will be so great, that Putin will not have enough billions (despite Oleg Deripaska getting his money from his sanctions lifted) to fund Republican election campaigns and guarantee a win for them. It will be throwing good money after bad; Putin is not stupid. A Shutdown like this is an event. It will be remembered. And the Republicans have done the Democrats a favor with their Republican psychosis of cruelty. They have revved up the ire of US taxpayers to overwhelm them in the next election and vote Democratic. McConnell/Trump stupidity and suicidal masochism is psychotic. To stick with the party line, Republicans are destroying themselves.
Women's March NYC, 1/21/2017, before the Mueller Investigation and firing of Comey. New Yorkers who know what and who Trump is also knew then that Trump was controlled by Putin, a fact in the last two years that has been proven in plain sight. The only ones who may know this on Fox News are Chris Wallace, Geraldo Rivera and Shep Smith. The other media outlets are apprised of the weird bromance bt Trump/Putin (Carole Di Tosti)
Trump is bankrupt; his slavish behavior to Putin for money quid pro quos is obvious. Putin owns him and now Putin holds the US hostage via Trump/McConnell. But the US taxpayer will not be held hostage to Trump/McConnell/Republicans and their paymaster Putin. Putin can continue to live large and impoverish his own people (1 in 5 have no toilets in Russia). We are not Communists or Putin serfs. And unfortunately, there is a document which guarantees us freedoms though Republicans and billionaires DAILY HAVE WORKED TO ABROGATE THAT DOCUMENT, though they are US citizens. Why? Because they are sick, unwell. mentally unfit, psychotic. Look at the average Republican. Do they appear healthy?

Like US Citizens who will not tolerate this psychosis, neither will the Russian people or those Republics like Ukraine or Latvia and others of the former U.S.S.R. The world is watching what happens here. The shameful and psychotic behavior of Trump/McConnell/Republicans is on record. If Putin remains aligned with them his clever prestidigitation has flown.The psychosis has gripped him as well.
The avalanche is here, MidTerms 2018, 2020 Election. (Carole Di Tosti, NYC, 1/21/2017)
When the psychosis is overthrown, US taxpayers will elect those who will represent their national interests. US taxpayers will no longer subsidize the handful of billionaires with BILLIONAIRE WELFARE. The billionaires will have to pay their proportionate share by kicking into the government coffers, not by paying a pittance, a few millions to obviate their $7.5 billion tax bills through Citizens United and payoffs to election boards in swing states, through payoffs to Republican PACS in exchange for Tax Reform that gives them millions and gives the bill to the underclasses. That dog won't hunt and in fact, that dog is turning on its slavemaster.

The right to life, the freedom to choose to pursue health and happiness is not subject to the infirmity and mental derangement of others who presume to lead but who cannot even govern their own excesses or their fleshly appetites. We of healthy, sound mind know that being slaves of the billionaire class is suicide. Billionaires need to own up to their mental illness and suicidal impulses. The billionaire infirm must go the way of the infirm, the deranged, the way of the deranged. And they must be brought to pay their fair share and have a Jesus moment. There is no place for any more Republican psychotics in our government which gives BILLIONAIRE WELFARE that billionaires take greedily because they are mentally deranged.

The shutdown has exposed The New American Slavery to the light. So be it. There are too many sane US taxpayers who will not allow the mad McConnells/Trumps/Putins/ BILLIONAIRES to continue in their own self-destruction. We are the geese that lay golden eggs. We will not lose our freedoms because riches have made them mentally ill and cupidity has rotted out their souls and minds. If the demented wish to be  consumed by their own insanity feel free folks. But you will not take the US taxpayer, you will not take the federal worker or the contractors that supply them or Delta Airlines or other corporations who are losing massive revenue, or their shareholders. You will have to go lunatic alone without us. You will not kill us, the geese. God gave us sound minds and our US American House resides in the inalienable rights God has given us. We know the difference between freedom and slavery. We choose freedom.
NYC 1/21/2017, I would add we refuse to accept The New American Slavery brought by Trump/McConnell/Republicans psychotic, UnAmerican activities. (Carole Di Tosti)
