Trump & Sisi of Egypt 5-15-2017

15, May 2017                            Trump & Sisi of Egypt

Both Trump and Sisi have much in common. Both hate their judicial systems that curb their dictatorial powers. Both hate the ‘fake media’. Sissi tosses dissenters in jail and is frustrated with the long drawn appeals process delaying their ultimate execution. “No courts should work this way” he fumed. President Sissi is frustrated with the courts protracted procedures and its efforts to curb dictatorial powers. During his three years in office, Sissi has dismantled most barriers to ultimate power. Media outlets have been shut down and journalists jailed.

Likewise, Trump has taken aim at the courts that seeks to curb the absolute power of the President and demands absolute loyalty from his administration.

Trump has expressed great admiration for President Sisi who is attempting to neuter the courts. The only guardrails to ultimate dictatorial powers in the US are the courts and a free “watchdog” press that Trump has mocked as fake news. Trump supporters and the Republican Party have a critical choice to make. Continue to be enablers of Trump and accept his false promises to bring back elusive jobs and in the process usurp the powers of the media and weaken the judicial system. His supporters must also accept that the teachings of the Bible and the Ten Commandments are irrelevant. Trump has violated all Ten Commandments. The survival of the planet is unimportant and the “sacred” mission of the Republicans is a “reverse Robin Hood” - wealth transfer from the poor to the ultra-rich.
