For those of you who remember the game Clue you will recall it was a game the final goal of which was to determine who committed a murder, what they used to commit it and where the dastardly deed was perpetrated. The end looked something like this: The murder was committed by 1. Colonel Mustard 2. with a wrench 3. in the library. There were numerous names, tools and places from whom and from which to choose as one progressed to the final revelatory goal and the win.
The heinous, unspeakable Facebook rants of Anthony Senecal, Donald J. Trump's one time butler elevated by Trump to family historian, come complete with disgusting profanity, murderous desires and unspeakable sentiments calling for the assassination of President Obama and equally vile insults of the First Lady, Michelle Obama reminded me of the game, Clue.
The exception, of course, is Clue was a game and these are real life thirsts placed in writing by a longtime friend and employee of the Republican Party's presumptive nominee for President, Donald J. Trump. Senecal has been known to and employed by Trump for 30 years. I think that is important because Senecal stands in line with host of hateful rightwing nationalists, white supremists and extremist supporters of Trump including but surely not limited to David Duke, the once former grand wizard of the Knights of the Klan whom Trump claims to not know conveniently forgotten by him now. He did know him and said so at another time. There are many others with similar ugly hate-filled political sentiments that gleefully support the unqualified-for-the-presidency, Trump.
My mother used to say a person is judged by the company he keeps and Trump keeps a host of noxious advocates who make up the lowest common denominator and character of part of our national politics. The recessive hateful gene which exists in the national DNA sitting unexpressed and simmering, waiting for the right moment to violently strike or for the right candidate to support its ugly advocacy.
Trump can disavow knowledge of a variety of hate organizations and crackpots who support him but he CANNOT claim ignorance of a man who was employed by and known to him for 30 years. This time the answer to the Clue mystery could be the butler, with an unknown weapon in the White House.
one can be sure if a Democrat had employed someone for 30 years who wrote as Senecal did against a sitting Republican president and that candidate did not disavow and fire him he would never have seen the inside of the oval office and neither should Trump.
