Traitors to Two Countries

Living in Greece, and being connected to a number of Greek/Americans, I am becoming more and more frustrated that there are Greek/Americans who actually support Donald Trump. That there are many Greeks who support DT should not be a surprise; Greeks love strong heroes, and too many Greeks did support the Junta (though they would never admit it today).

Greek/Americans who vote for Trump are traitors to two countries. To Greece they are traitors selling their souls to a man who has made no secret that he supports Turkey, does not care that the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul is now a mosque, and has admitted that he takes calls from Erdogan weekly. They are traitors to their other country, the US, by supporting a traitor in the White House, who has engaged in High Crimes and Misdemeanours, who attempts on a weekly basis to implement policies that are anti-Constitutional, and who is actively setting Amerikan against American with no regard for the impact this is having on the country or its citizens. A President who has said that he should be allowed a third term, in direct violation of the Constitution.

By their support for Trump, they accept and support turning the Hagia Sophia into a mosque. They support Turkish jets violating Greek airspace multiple times per week.

They support the very people who suppressed and excluded their own Greek ancestors in their early years in Amerika. They soil the memory of Greeks who worked so hard to become Amerikans, supporters of the Constitution and the greatness that Amerika already was.

They are traitors to their families, saying that they support a man who would happily grab their daughters by the pussy, kiss them whether they like it or not. These supporters of Trump are in effect offering up their own daughters to be raped by the man they adore. Shame.

A country and a people for whom family is so important are being betrayed by people who would sell their families, sell their country, sell or give away their daughters. And for what? A RED hat.

If you are a Greek/American and you vote for Trump, you are neither. You are no longer Greek. You are no longer American. And you will be dead to your children and grandchildren. What did παππούς do in the “Time of Trump” will be asked, and everyone will pretend they do not remember that you helped make that time. What did γιαγιά do in the “Time of Trump”? Well, she prepared her daughters and granddaughters to be raped on the altar of Trump.

So on Election Day, go to the polls. Take your ballot. Go into the booth.

When you are in there, remember how the Junta let your παππούς and your γιαγιά vote; by giving them a red card and a green card. Green to support the Junta, and Red to reject them. Put your vote in the ballot box, and drop the other one onto the floor. And heaven help you if you drop the wrong card onto the floor.

Remember that this time, you don’t have to drop the card, you can simply soil your ballot. You don’t have to brave, but you can uphold your honor and dignity. You can just – not – vote.

But if you do vote for Trump, then have the decency to step out and say that you did (if he wins or loses) and say that you are proud to have betrayed both of your countries.
