The American is conditioned to fixed daylight work hours so commence many of your serious attacks at night so that they can’t get enough comfortable sleep. Never make a stand against the American, hit him and run away. Work his nerves so that he is anxious in many kinds of ways. Always turn his liberties into his anguish. The Russians designed the AK47 rifle to also utilize the bullets of the American M16 rifle. These are a few of the war strategies of the communist and the socialist. The reading of the Communist Manifesto by Marx and Engels was required reading at both universities I attended because American leadership need to know and experience the thoughts of those who openly declare their hatred of our pluralistic, representative democracy with its capitalist economic base that believes in an unequal distribution of available goods and services based on merit. The communist and the socialist despise our desired ownership and exploitation of property for profit. Were the acts and deeds of the republican past president Donald Trump those of a friend or an enemy ? Never loose sight of the fact that this republican past president presented himself to the people as an nihilist, white supremacist, white privileged, existential political figure determined to install an autocracy in America.

All American epistemology has its roots in Western European modes of thought, and these modes are rooted in ancient Greek thoughts. The great Greek philosopher Plato laid the intellectual foundation for Communism and Socialism in his work titled “The Republic.” Within the dominion of existing nihilistic autocracies, the Greek thinkers debated the strengths and weaknesses of autocracy and democracy long before there was a Donald Trump and a Joe Biden.

Past republican President Donald Trump achieved to great wealth operating within a democratic government with a capitalist economic base that believed in an unequal distribution of available goods and services based on merit, and yet, his world view matured to that of a wealthy nihilist who had the political power (i.e. political power meaning “who you know”) to make America anything he wanted it to be. Expressing the will of the white majority, through proof of the vote, Trump sought to reinterpret, and dismantle our existing democracy, and replace it with his white supremacy, white privileged nihilistic authoritarian political structure.

Trump inferred to much of the voting white majority through his rhetoric and political alliances, his form of existential freedom for the people. Trump was successful in capturing the prevailing sentiments of a large majority of the people who believed that they needed to be free from religious ethics which extended care beyond that reserved for family alone, unnecessary taxation, and free of governmental regulation of their political, economic, and social activities. His devoted white and black supporters loved his offer to deliver this kind of freedom to them and they cast their votes for him by the millions. First there was the idea of existential freedom through exercising capitalism under the political leadership of a nihilistic autocracy, then there were Trump’s political acts and deeds towards that end. Trump was defeated by the democrat Joe Biden in his bid for reelection to the office of President of the United States of America but only by a comparatively few votes. It is not over. You are a republican, and I think that you know, and understand where the rejection of that rhetoric that you are calling American exceptionalism is coming from.
