An army of fools is doing the empire’s dirty business, thinking all the time they’re fighting the ultimate dragon.
Trump is vile, readily admits Debbie Lusignan, but the comfortable liberals’ white knight, Barack Obama, is a major criminal, too, and a treacherous one, a fact that sycophants like Oprah Winfrey and George Clooney will never admit.
Here’s the uncompromising Debbie Lusignan, host of Sane Progressive, reminding one and all liberals that their darling Obama, the pride of affluent liberals, and royal avatar of identity politics, was not just a flawed hero, but a wholesale traitor to the basic principles of democracy and interests of the people.

In his zeal to prove to his antagonists in the War Party that he is as bloodthirsty as their champion, Hillary Clinton, and more manly than Barack Obama, Trump seems to have gone “play-crazy” — acting like an unpredictable maniac in order to terrorize the Russians into forcing some kind of dramatic concessions from their Syrian allies, or risk Armageddon.However, the “play-crazy” gambit can only work when the leader is, in real life, a disciplined and intelligent actor, who knows precisely what actual boundaries must not be crossed. That ain’t Donald Trump — a pitifully shallow and ill-disciplined man, emotionally handicapped by obscene privilege and cognitively crippled by white American chauvinism. By pushing Trump into a corner and demanding that he display his most bellicose self, or be ceaselessly mocked as a “puppet” and minion of Russia, a lesser power, the War Party and its media and clandestine services have created a perfect storm of mayhem that may consume us all.— Glen Ford, Editor in Chief, Black Agenda Report
