Just when I thought the man's tweets could not get more petty and petulant, he gives us this:
"Happy New Year to all, including to my many enemies and those who have fought me and lost so badly they just don’t know what to do. Love!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 31, 2016
Does that sound like someone who intends to be a President for all Americans? Is that a unifying message meant to be inclusive of all Americans?
65 million voted against him. Are we now to understand that he regards us as his enemies? Well, he can count on me to join the resistance. Yes, Mr. Trump, please regard me as an enemy. For which reason, of course I know what to do. Resist just about everything you stand for. Beginning with the many anti-science people appointed to your administration.
But, really, just reading that tweet as it is worded, it's actually part of a pattern. For some reason, his holiday tweets have often addressed his "many enemies". The guy's wrapped up in himself to some considerable degree in order to tweet such a New Year's greeting that seems to suggest the next American President regards quite a few of his fellow American citizens as his enemies. Thanks, Donald, we're fond of you too. Happy New Year Mr. President-Elect!
From what a I can see, Trump's governing style will consist of tweets and rallies. The rallies will,only attract the followers of his cult of personality. The tweets will often single out people and groups for derision. I'm sure it will include accusations of "enemies of America" and "losers". And,as some individuals have found out the hard way, words spoken against Trump will often elicit death threats, publishing home addresses, etc. he just seems determined to divide, not unite. The right vs. left has always had the potential to turn as ugly as a near civil war. His governance will promote that approach. Why? Well, his ego is as big as it gets, and I'm guessing most of his days will be concerned with devising ways to punish his enemies. Yeah, the country really needs that.....
