Unconventional Convention

By James DiMartino, Cape May

To the Editor:

The venture capitalist vice president who has sold the GOP to tech investors masquerades as a man of the people. Meanwhile his angel investor ($45 million per month) Elon Musk is waging war with the Nation Labor Relations Board over a workplace harassment investigation into Space X in a suit designed to destroy the NLRB.

The DOW topped 40,000 in mid-July, more people traveled this past Fourth of July (TSB processed a record 3 million a day), yet America is impoverished. America is unequal, not impoverished.

Calling this race a battle between good and evil seems to evaporate the “toned down rhetoric and unity” promise but reinforces the messianic tone of the campaign.

Quotes from the head of the ticket: “I am your retribution,” “immigrants are poisoning our blood,” “there won’t be another election in this country if I loose,” “there will be a bloodbath if I loose.”

Why have an election at all? He never accepted the last one he lost and lit the match on Jan. 6. There is no indication that he would treat a 2024 loss any differently.

Winning comes with new benefits as the Supreme Court ruling bestows a “get out of jail free card,” changing the presidency into a kingship.

The old Chinese proverb says: “May you be fortunate enough to live in interesting times.” Interesting, indeed!
