You've Been Trumped

Do you know about Pluto TV? If not, you should mos def check it out. Here, I'll make it easy for you: https://pluto.tv/live-tv/tbn . It has 250 channels and "thousands of free movies and TV shows" (https://www.digitaltrends.com/home-theater/what-is-pluto-tv/). I just watched one of those free movies...a documentary...entitled You've Been Trumped (2011). 



And it was just amazing. I say that as someone who thought it was impossible for me to think less of Donald Trump. To me, he is a hateful, spiteful, stupid, crass man who lies, cheats, and steals pretty much every moment of his life. I am ashamed that he is the president of the United States, and I pray to God that he loses the 2020 election by such a large margin that it is impossible for the results to be questioned.

But this documentary made me think less of him. 

It tells the story of Trump building a luxury golf course in Balmedie, Aberdeenshire. In order to accomplish that feat, he destroyed the lives of the Scots who lived in the area...and did irreparable damage to the local environment. And big surprise: local law enforcement representatives supported Trump. 

I think that everything you need to know about Donald Trump is included in this 95 minute documentary. His lying. His bullying. His brutality. His greed. His contempt for anyone who gets in his way...even if he is obviously wrong.  

This reign of terror has got to end. As Rachel Maddow said on her show last night, "The dark days aren't coming--the dark days are here."
