The problem that America has is...we have a president that operates on the insanity scale...and people are always working overtime to figure out his motives and logic! We should convene a private committee to report to the public, corrected information that should have come from our president. As it seems...few people want to take council from our elected officials! Our government ‘for the people’ is faulty!

I loved Sam Cook, back in the day, but words matter to me, and these old spiritual songs with this deeply religious content, causes me to feel that I am being persuaded something, by emotions! Like a religious teaching tool! (I am so far away from that religious stuff, even the music turns me off.) But, I do love the music of Sam Cook!

The distraction helps him feel powerful and productive, the protection of his environment is someone else’s problem and no need to improve his human nature, because he is above the rest in intelligence! ‘Man’ is now seen, as valued to the degree he produces stuff, for needless consumption and becomes wealthy. ‘He’ has become a taker...even ‘rape’ of the environment seems not to worry the takers! ‘It will grow back in time,’ is the prevailing mantra!

It looks like the trump supporters are with us, until he is removed from office or dies! I could care less, if they all quit their jobs and join him at Mar-A-lago, when he is VOTED OUT! No need to beat our heads up against a stone wall, working them over with facts and proof, that trump is killing their independent nature! Trump and certain people have fallen in to ‘lock step’ with one another and my guess is...they will die there! It makes it even more important that we stay clear of purpose and put our fear on the back burner and BE resolute when we take a stand for fairness and justice, that is mitered out appropriately to every individual in this Country! This is a kind of hell, as I see it! Because of their sheer numbers!

Freedompath comments on Sep 18, 2020:

I have found fewer people going into psychology in these later years. This may have a connection to there being more narcissistic personalities than normal. A person must care about other people and themselves. What I see is that narcissus, do not ‘care’ so much about themselves as they attempt to feed a hungry wolf in their nature. How world they relate to anyone, seeking understanding of their inner-nature? I found psychotherapist that I could work with, in shorter and shorter supply over the last several years. You must keep looking and reading non-fiction books on how the brain works and our development in childhood is helpful. Best of luck,

I have real fear, although I would never lay down and not try and stand up against the delusions that comes from specific individuals, that have succumb to trump’s personality! It will be an on going struggle to clear the way for these personality types, first removing trump would be a major start. His ever presence in the media, keeps his ‘people’ activated! ‘Lit up,’ so to speak!

At this point it seems dire that we get Biden into office. Our democrat desires want even count otherwise. Then the real work begins. Plans can be put in place and then WE work toward a more equitable and peaceful America. One that includes everyone! AND, we close the cages holding human beings and create a major plan to help them, and at least treat them with human dignity, that we each deserve! As I see it, nothing can be done to tilt power of even hope, to include the majority...until the ‘death hold’ on power can be removed from the hands of the present lunatic!
