Tapestry Don - The Wanna Be Gangster

from Black Politics Today · host Black Politics Today

Donald Trump is the quintessential bully. He puffs up his rhetoric and has other minions to follow through with his dirty work. During his time in the White House, he has fashioned himself after the real Teflon Don, John Gotti, the Gambino crime boss. John Gotti, who escaped punishment for years until he was caught on tape talking about his crimes and one of his liuetenents, turned states evidence against him. He was eventually convicted and sentenced to life for murder, racketeering, money laundering.  Donald Trump has so far escaped punishment for his lying, corruption, violations of campaign finance laws, profiting while in office, etc. But unlike Teflon Don, Donald Trump is the biggest wimp, I've ever seen trying to play crime boss. Like all bullies, they squeal once you hit back. And like most 6yr olds they resort to name-calling. This 72yr old insecure, narcissistic, lil wimp, Tapestry Don, is nothing more than a little boy wrapped in an adult body. He’s still looking for daddy’s approval. Just like the real Don, it looks like Tapestry may have gone too far this time. Even with his great lawyer, Bruce Cutler, couldn’t keep Gotti out of prison for opening his mouth one too many times.  Tapestry Don is walking down that same pathway as Gotti and Richard Nixon. And like Gotti and Nixon, there are tapes. So, how will the American people look at this moment in history and more importantly, how will congress handle it?  Joining me tonight to discuss Donald Trumps inevitable impeachment is Greg Stewart GOP supporter and trusted ally and Dr. Wilmer Leon, Professor and Host of Inside the Issues with Wilmer Leon on Channel 126 on XM Radio every Saturday.
