I admit that I am slow to catch on. I trust people. After all I earned the badge of Eagle scout. I loved my country, my church, my neighborhood.
I became a forensic neuropsychologist and saw first hand how evil people could be. No – not the criminals – the justice system. I was in the swamp. I didn’t see it because I believed that our government and its officials cared about the citizenry.
One thing I learned about evil, that I learned in Catholic school, was that evil could be dressed nicely and be very charming. (priests) I learned that evil could be educated as well.
Evil has no code or principles to follow. Evil people have evil plans, even back up plans. But they have no allegiance outside of themselves. (this is a weakness of evil)
As I read with horror, real news, I see that President Trump is surrounded by evil. This story reads like an adventure novel. The evil Clinton, the diabolical Obama, the lying Comey, the underhanded McCabe, all threaten the Republic and the guy in the white hat.
How can you defeat so many evil actors?
It turns out you don’t have to – they are stupid and eat their own (no pun intended). They hold no allegiance to anyone but themselves. They turn on each other. And like rats on a sinking ship they leave a trail of rat droppings as they make their exit.
I am going to assume that the white hats will win and I am going to write the three pages that will fill the history book of the victors.
