You might ask why would the Nazi-defending, white supremacist-embracing, government that regularly uses anti-Semitic code language do this? Because it has nothing to do w/anti-semitism. It has to do w/supporting another racist wannabe authoritarian regime--in Israel.

The Trump administration is considering declaring that several prominent international NGOs — including Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch and Oxfam — are anti-Semitic and that governments should not support them https://politico.com/news/2020/10/21/state-department-weighs-labeling-several-prominent-human-rights-groups-anti-semitic-430882

Up is down
Right is wrong
Square is round
Good is bad

I think this was the premise of the bizarre Superman comic in the 1960s.

Or 1984.

Or the thought processes of your average sociopath.

Ever get the feeling that they are going to one day be having coffee in the White House and Joe and Kamala will share a look and and understanding that while the work load they are inheriting is immense and growing by the hour, it is a solemn duty and an honor to restore this nation and lead the phoenix from these ashes?

Joe was there with Barak in 2009, and now he will be there with Kamala in 2021...one day, historians will struggle to describe just how an abomination like Trump managed to wedge itself between the Obama-Biden and Biden-Harris administrations. They will be no better able to do so than I can today...all I can hope for now is the chance to live in those eras around the error and hopefully help guide us out of the ditch once more...
