They Call Her 'Ka-MAL-a' Because They Are Race-Hating Faux-Christians

Who are 'they,' you ask? Trump Republicans and MAGidiots.

In January 1942, the frivolity inside this lovely mansion outside of Berlin was contagious. Some of the most ruthless and murderous bureaucrats and officers of the Third Reich were invited to spend a day and a night drinking, eating, and planning. On the shores of the pristine Lake Wannsee, at the conference that would later become infamously notorious as the one where the men whose loyalty lay not with Germany but with Hitler put the finishing touches on the “Final Solution.” 

The grotesque figure of Sarah Huckabee Sanders, the governor of Alabama, in her sickening thick-as-molasses redneck — and in a different time slave-owning — accent began to thrill the anti-America MAGidiots at a Michigan townhall she was hosting with our version of Hitler — albeit much dumber. She began by appealing to the parents out there. Reminding us that no matter how important we think we are, there is always a child at home to remind us that nothing is as important as our little bundles of joy (aw). But, here, I have to agree. For me, my child is the most important person in the world. 

Then, though, she shifted gears and delved into the rhetoric of JD Vance. She reminded us that people without children are somehow morally less accountable than those with children. Because Kamala Harris has never given birth, she is less of a woman in the eyes of MAGidiots. Because Kamala Harris is a Black-Asian woman, it is okay to mock her name and turn her into “the other.” White racists, and especially slaveowners, loved giving names to Black Americans. Not wanting to bother with any “funny-sounding” African names, the white owners and racists in the South, after the Confederacy got its ass kicked, have never accepted that a Black person could have a strong sense of self or pride.

So, Sarah, the piece of shit racist, looks-like-a-middle-aged-tow-truck-driver decided it would be acceptable to disrespect the person of the Vice President of the United States more than she already did:

“I am not sure what Ka-MAL-a (they emphasize the MAL for whatever reason) has to keep her grounded” because she has no children of her own. Sanders was letting it be known that if it was 1840, or even 1940, and the uppity Ka-MAL-a was acting out like that in Alabama, then she’d be in for some good old-fashioned Southern hospitality (wink-wink).

My son, half Russian and half American, often asks me why we don’t live in the U.S. He understands why we left Russia and that, in our house, the name Putin is a bad word. He also understands that Trump is a bad word and that when Fox News radio comes on our Google Nest feed, he runs to me, “Papa, Fox is on!” I shout, “Next Google,” and we move on.

“Why don’t you like Fox? Because they like Trump?” I affirm his suspicions and add that Fox, like Russia Today, is propaganda that pushes hate and the interests of their respective monsters. He asks me why some people love Trump. Trying to be as fair as possible, I tell him that they are confused; I explain that for many years, they have watched only Fox, so they are incapable of figuring things out anymore. They need Fox to explain it, and Fox always tells them that Trump is good. 

“It’s like Vasya when we are playing, and he suddenly gets cranky and starts crying. He needs his telephone or computer games to help him feel good.”

My son is 7 years old, and he has no access to smartphones and barely has access to any other gadgets. When we go on a train or to a restaurant, he brings toys like Lego and games like Connect 4. The other kids are incapable of playing and eventually explode in fits of “I’m bored,” the parents either embarrassingly hand over a telephone or leave early. My son now relates that behavior with how the Foxified MAGidiots react to the world around them. 

Soon, he will be hearing about the stupidity, moral emptiness, and evil of Sarah Huckabee Sanders. 

When Sanders spoke about “Ka-MAL-a,” the crowd booed, hissed, and giggled. I imagine that was how the participants at the Wannsee Conference acted when Reinhard Heydrich, who chaired the meeting, sarcastically asked Rudolph Hoess, the Auschwitz commandant, if he didn’t mind being so troubled to have another few million Jews sent his way.

Some will say I am exaggerating the potential for the evil of the Trump lackeys like Huckabee. I think I am downplaying it. 

History is on my side.
