God, I hope I am wrong

Trump is seriously crazy. But again, so are so many people as we can see – the fact that the American election is gonna be so close already tells us a lot.

Trump will win. Greed is why. In a few days from now it will be a done deal. That is my view.

Greed is very popular, for some reason. Greed is good, as Gordon Gekko once said. And money corrupts.

I hope I am wrong – Trump is despicable.

What is happening with Ukraine also hints at why Trump will win. America’s leadership looks weak and they appear to be focused on so many strange things. America was meant to be a role model in the free world, but not anymore. Again, this is all my view. I am probably just very naive.

Ukraine has received just 10% of US aid approved by Congress earlier this year, Zelensky says.

What’s the deal with the support of Trump?! If so many people who know him better than anyone are warning America then why is this race so close?! So many of the staff under Trump’s administration are telling America at how dangerous Trump is. Imagine for a moment that all these people worked in a pharmaceutical company and warned us that a certain pill could harm us, that it could be dangerous. A pill you were about to give a family member could kill them. Would you still give them that pill? So many ex Trump staff are speaking out against Trump but no one is listening, or, they simply don’t care.

The story of “purpose” is the story of greed, and what I have learned over the past 20+ years is that you can try and inspire people to think, and perhaps act, but overall, greed wins out, for some strange reason. And I say this with sad intimate authority. I don’t need to look very far to see how real greed is.

Greed is why Trump is going to win. Greed is the biggest disease on the planet.

What is the opposite of greed? Is it kindness. I think it is. But where is the kindness in the world in the past decade, or two. Perhaps my perspective is shaped by what is going on in Ukraine, so perhaps I just can’t see the whole picture. But one thing I have experienced in my life: there are more greedy people than kind people.

“You need a thug to fight a thug.”

“Why vote for a man like Trump who emboldens fascists and racists and the very worst of society – but it’s America – you get the president you deserve and in many ways he symbolizes what America has become.”
