Time to Tell this President: ‘You’re fired!’

by Ernie McCray

As I read it,
the 25th Amendment of the Constitution
says, to put it in a layman’s term,
that if the president,
when it comes to
discharging
the powers and duties
that the job requires of him,
is lacking,
then that president can be sent packing,
which should get us to asking
why we haven’t let our president go
on his non-merry way
since there is no one on earth
who could be more inefficient
at leading a nation
than the one we’ve got,

a man who

is mentally disabled,

totally unable

to feel compassion

for others,

bound by some

unearthly urge

to cause distress and psychological pain,

capable of, on a whim,

firing thousands of people

with no valid justification

or threatening

countries that are our neighbors

with tariffs

that will bring economic harm to our nation

or making immigrants

shake with fear

that they might be ripped away from their

families and friends

and jobs and businesses

and sent away.

 

And who will ever

forget

the sight of him

unashamedly

scolding, in the manner of the sociopath that he is,

the leader of another nation,

a loyal ally of ours,

on his case

for not dressing properly

and for not being thankful enough,

as though

folks should

kowtow and bow before him,

blind to the

deep emotional pain

that, like a tattoo drawing,

was etched on the face

of the man sitting next to him

obviously very much in need of a hug

and a helping hand,

his wishes denied.

 

While America’s

influence in the world plummets

to never seen lows

like the runoff from heavy winter snows

going over a waterfall

during spring time,

leaving us without a soul

we can call our own,

alone,

with no friends around the globe,

victims of a madman

who is completely

out of control

 

Oh, we’ve got to get our politicians

to take the 25th Amendment seriously

and rid us of this evil being

which means Democrats

will have to forcefully and deliberately

push Republicans into action on this

with no “reaching across the aisle”

and compromising,

no doves, olive branches, and lotus flowers,

because they,

due to their inaction

in getting rid of him in the past,

hold the key

to keeping democracy alive

and they will have to be pressured

on the radio and on podcasts

and on TV and on social media

and in Town Halls

and in newspapers

and magazines,

no matter if the source

is leftwing or rightwing

or independent,

as this is, literally,

an emergency

that definitely

can’t be taken lightly.

 

To not bring this man’s real life

reign of terror to an end

would be an unforgiveable sin,

leaving future generations

(our descendants, keepers of our bloodline),

to deal with

his wretched ideas,

notions

that can only lead to

social and political realities

that could substantially hamper

their ability

to create the hopeful world

loving and caring people

have forever desired.

 

This man is an enemy of the human race

and we need to tell him, all up in his face:

“YOU’RE FIRED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

I was raised in a loving and alive home, in a black neighborhood filled with colorful characters in Tucson, Arizona. Such an environment gave me a hint that life has to be grabbed by the tail as tight as a pimple on a mosquito's butt. With no BS and a whole lot of love. So, from those days to now I get up every morning set on making the world a better place. On my good foot*, and I hope my writing reflects that. *an old black expression

  1. Yet, he somehow got 49.8% of the popular vote in 2024 which amounts to (77,302,580 votes) in 2024, that ought to show you how bad the other party’s messaging was doing.

  2. John: and Harris got 48.3% even with the GOP gerrymandering of the last 20 years nullifying voters. Thrown-out ballots, ‘provisional’ ballots that never get counted, bomb threats in Democrat-voting districts, and all the rest of the dirty deeds that Republicans have been pulling for DECADES. Funny that the people who get caught committing ‘voter fraud’ tend to be Republican voters don’t you think?

    Mayor of Nothing: come back in…oh say 6 months and let us know how it all worked out, eh? At this point, less than three months in, the economy is crashing and the future dims by the moment. Look up the last time a Republican President did this tariff crap, we were handed the Republican Great Depression of 1929. How did that turn out?

    There’s a reason the shantytowns that sprang up across the country in the 1930s were called ‘Hoovervilles.’ Soon we’ll have Trumpvilles I’m guessing.

    I’m sure you will celebrate what this article is saying while those of us who know history shudder in dread at the consequences of stupidity, greed, and Fascism by the wealthy.
