The folks who run the Town Hall in Jackson, Wyoming proudly displayed a portrait of President Obama during his terms in office. But they won’t be extending the same respect to President Trump.
Mayor Pete Muldoon removed portraits of President Trump and Vice President Pence – replacing them with a portrait of Chief Washakie, a renowned Native American warrior.
The mayor told me in a lengthy email that he stands by his decision – even though he acknowledged Trump “won the election under the rules we have in place.”
“Dictators like Joseph Stalin required their portraits to be displayed everywhere,” Mayor Muldoon told me. “Luckily, we do not live in a dictatorship.”
Uh, if everybody's portrait was fine until the nation elected someone you personally don't like, and now you alone decide to take it down, you are the dictator!
People this blind and personally partisan should reconsider public service, because they aren't good at it.
When I was growing up in the late 1940's into the 1950's most childish temper tantrums ended by the age of 6. Daddy and the ruler enforced that law.
ReplyDeleteThe mayor needs a ruler strike up side o'the head.
DeleteJackson is a cesspool of entitled, smug, progressive turds - many of whom are trust fund babies. The mayor is a reflection of the electorate.
ReplyDeleteAlas, yes. Where did tolerance of opposing views go?
DeleteJust for fun:
ReplyDeleteMayor Muldoon is a maroon!!
