Racist Bigots Misogynists and Political Pundits

 


 

I guess most racist and bigots may think of themselves as racist and bigots. I also guess most White (European American) political pundits don't see White Americans as racist and bigots. They probably believe racism and bigotry is not permanent.  

Male and female misogynists also voted in the 2024 election.

If you want to win future elections probably calling the American elected racist and sexist probably not the best way to go.

Money Power Narcissism


  

What does a narcissistic man, who has money and power, want for the rest of his life?  He probably wants more money, power, admiration, and glory. The people he helps will know right away, the people that will be hurt may not know for years.

Protection & Obedience

 

 
 
Some people are not willing or mentally capable of altering their long held beliefs.  Some people are mentally capable of seeing the gray areas, the nuances, the necessary compromises.   
 
There will be another election. The present is a good time to educate the masses with historical facts with the hope it will enlighten the electorate.
