Donald Trump: The White Man's Last Hurrah!

"Donald Trump is Marvin X rich and white!"--Elliott Bey, Philadelphia PA

 Marvin X and daughter Nefertiti at the Black Arts Movement 50th Anniversary, Oakland's Laney College, 2015. On an intergenerational panel of activists and their children, she called for her father to pass the baton to her generation, "We're qualified and ready, so pass the baton. Don't say it, pass it!" Her remarks went viral. When Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf arrived for the reception, she mentioned his daughter's remarks.photo Ken Johnson

Marvin X's smart mouth oldest daughter, Nefertiti, told her father, after meeting his agent for the sale of his archives, Peter Howard (RIP), a rich white man,"Dad, Peter is just like you, an intelligent, arrogant bastard!" Enter Donald Trump, another intelligent, arrogant bastard, and rich, unlike Marvin who was described by one of his students as the poorest famous person she'd ever met. A white patron from Canada who assisted Marvin X's Recovery Theatre in San Francisco said, "I might be poor, Marvin X, but I ain't as poor as you." Alas, some people describe him as the poorest but richest man in the world. In 2001, he produced the Kings and Queens of Black Consciousness at San Francisco State University, participants included Dr. Cornel West, Amiri and Amina Baraka, Ishmael Reed, Rev. Cecil Williams, Rev. Andriette Earl, Phavia Kujichagulia, Tarika Lewis, Dr. Julia Hare, Dr. Theophile Obenga, Rudi Mwongozi, Elliott Bey, et al. In the Q and A, someone asked Marvin X how he brought all these people together, especially with no money? He replied, "I used a device called the telephone." Have you not heard a good name is better than gold?” In her remarks, ancestor Dr. Julia Hare said, "When Marvin X calls, it's like the Lord calling. If he says jump, you say how high!"

Back to the Devil!

For star worshippers, Donald and Marvin are both Gemini, known for intelligence and duplicity, multiple personalities, and throw in an overwhelming degree of narcissism. As per truth, Marvin X may be ahead of Donald because Marvin's mother was a disciple of Mary Baker Eddy and her Christian Science, so Marvin is deeply imbued with truth, although he is known for hyperbole in league with the right wing white nationalist, Prez Trump. If Trump plays with truth at his whim, when Marvin X taught English at the University of Nevada, Reno, his mostly white students informed him they had no knowledge of truth. They asked what did he mean by truth? FYI, they knew one "truth" their parents had taught them, "Niggers are bad news!" Meanwhile they were discovering "Niggers" were very good news as they sucked and fucked the black athletes!

While a teacher at the University of Nevada, Reno, Marvin discovered Nevada was the most conservative state in the union. He taught  at UNR in 1979, during the regime of President Ronald Reagan, whose base of operation was Nevada, Reno specifically. His best friend was Senator Paul Laxalt of Reno. Chair of the RNC was Attorney Frank Fahrenkopf of Reno. One of Marvin's "teacher's pets'' was "Coco" who became an intern for Senator Laxalt. The Nevada people, conservatives and liberals, treated Marvin X royally: he was awarded two planning grants from the National Endowment of the Humanities via the Nevada Humanities Committee and was employed as a planner/data analyst for a Community Service Agency, writing multi-million dollar grants proposals for Head Start and other projects. He also taught at Upward Bound and courses in Technical Writing and Creative Writing at Nevada Community College.

Back to Donald Trump and Marvin X as Black and White Nationalists

Marvin X was born a Black nationalist, i.e., his parents were known as Race people, Blacks who were for their people. If Donald Trump is not a white nationalist, none exists anywhere in the world. Marvin X says, "I'm not mad at Donald Trump for being a white nationalist. Every person should stand and defend their own kind, otherwise they're a sellout. Donald is fighting to preserve the last vestige of white supremacy in America, but the world is already majority non-white and America is on the precipice of becoming the same."So Donald is like a child in Toys R US, fighting for the last toy before a new shipment arrives from, yes, China. He is a dramatic persona with that tragic flaw of hubris or overwhelming pride in himself and his people. No other people matter, for his vision is warped in dreams of a white Christmas that shall be no more. As many of his brothers are doing, he should consider suicide since, as Baldwin said, "White supremacy has led white people to rationalizations so fantastic it approaches the pathological." (FYI, Marvin X interviewed James Baldwin, December, 1968, NYC) Donald is a mad warrior who must represent all those white men who cannot understand or articulate  why their world is coming to an end. So he is in battle with Plato's shadow on the wall that is not of himself but the breathing world in which he shall exist in name only, diminished, for sure, not in any dominant position, no matter his military budget, no matter the building of a Chinese style or Israeli wall to keep out the barbarians. Alas, the barbarians are Donald and his brothers, Vandals who are their own worst enemies and who shall ultimately destroy themselves because they are constitutionally unable to change. Have you heard of the mental virus, unlike Covid19, the mental virus is similar to the virus that infects your computer when the keys and mouse at stuck on stupid and ultimately you must buy a new one or a new hard drive. You can go nowhere until you do so. Yes, you are stuck on stupid as we see America. How stupid is stupid? Example, Trump has been blaming the Western states, i.e., California, Oregon, Washington, for the recent fires but in truth 88% of the land on fire is owned by the Federal Government, not the states.

A primary and fundamental difference between Marvin and Donald is that those who know Marvin know he is a personality in constant transformation, although basically a Black nationalist. Have you seen him embrace the white woman, Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf? She supported the creation of Oakland's Black Arts Movement Business District along the 14th Street corridor, downtown. The legislation was pushed through by Lynette McElhaney, President of the City Council. Google Marvin's essay In Search of My Soul Sister, in which he delineates the difference between  Black Secretary of State Condi Rice and Senator Barbara Boxer.

But Marvin realized long ago when he taught in universities and colleges, especially when he had classrooms of mostly white students, a teacher who hates his students is a very sick puppy and he had no intention to be that puppy. He embraced his white students and they embraced him. He could see they needed knowledge and truth to dispel the world of make believe they inherited from their racist parents. It would be good if Donald Trump, in these Last Days of Whitey, could really become the man he claims to be. For sure, he is trying his best to be brutally honest, a phenomena most of his brothers and sisters cannot phantom. But in his honesty is a plethora of lies and half truths that cannot and will not stand no matter how adamantly he proclaims such antiquated notions of his world

of make believe. He will not be able to exterminate those he feels are roaches, simply because there are too many of them and the blow black will be horrific for Donald and his brothers. They may be forced to undergo long term recovery in some facility like Gitmo.

Take a good look at wars America is engaged in at this hour: Libya, Yemen, Somalia, Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, etc. She is losing everywhere, in fact, hasn't won a war since World War II. Alas, she didn’t win WWII, hell, the Russians sacrificed millions to defeat Hitler.  And America is  still fighting North Korea, she lost in Vietnam. War! What is good for? For the military industrial complex, the global bloodsuckers of the poor? Imagine, she's been bombing Iraq twenty-five years, Afghanistan nineteen. How long can this go on? And he wants to bomb the hell out of ISIS and take their oil? How can America bomb the hell out of ISIS when she is supplying ISIS? Donald knows the truth so why all the drama to deceive the 99%, the deaf, dumb and blind of America, White, Black, Latino/Latina, Asians and Aboriginal? He may be bluntly honest but at his core he is delusional, his soul atrophied, as ancestor poet Amiri Baraka wrote in A Black Mass, "Where the soul's print should be there is only a cellulose pouch of disgusting habits."

I may be an intelligent, arrogant bastard, but someone said, "At his best, Marvin X is clarity of perception."I can see clearly the world of Donald Trump is ephemeral. It is good to see he is trying to stand tall and represent the last hope of White American manhood, but it is too late. The condition of the patient is terminal, he cannot be rusticated. So have a good laugh, Donald,  just know he who laughs last, laughs the longest! We are convinced, the suffering masses shall have the last laugh! We must applaud Donald Trump for calling upon China to release the Muslim millions in socalled Education Centers that are concentration camps. We’ve heard little from the Muslim world on their incarcerated brothers and sisters.

Perhaps the Muslim regimes see the Chinese Muslims as they see the Palestinians in the Gaza concentration camps and West Bank hovels under Zionist occuption. These reactionary Muslim regimes will join the Axis of Evil (Sunni Arabs, USA and Israel) in a futile attempt to counter the rise of Iran that seeks to revive the Persion Empire from the Tigris and Euphrates to the Mediterranean, along with Turkey seeking a resurrection of the Ottoman Empire. What a wonderful world!We wish you well, Donald Trump. Your people need your tragic flaws at this hour. Perhaps you can help them realize their flaws as they rejoice in yours.--Marvin X 9/19/20
