Trump has used the term Liberation Day before. In an early spring day in the 1990s, Trump telephoned a consultant to his company and declared to her that it was liberation day that day.
According to the consultant, Maggie Haberman, liberation day to Trump was the first warm spring day when women stopped wearing coats and liberated their upper bodies!
It is amazing how a man who thinks and behaves this way has come to occupy the position he does today.
What does it say about the country and the voters who elected him twice, and the second time with an increased majority? What does it also say about the people who surround him and do his bidding everyday and parrot his message?
It makes you wonder what it now takes to become the leader of any country. Is competency even necessary? Does integrity or the lack of it make any difference anymore? Is a sense of duty and service even important? What is the value of a good education?
Makes me wonder what moves the needle for people nowadays. Do they just want someone who can entertain and make empty promises? Would just plain bald bravado with no substance get you all the way?
Certainly in the US it appears that way.
