Calls For Clarence Thomas To Step Down, But He Lacks The Character To Do So…

Virginia Ginni Lamp-Thomas has always been a right-wing activist, so lib­er­als have always com­plained that her activism was too close to the nation’s high­est court. Her hus­band, Clarence TomAss Thomas, is a mem­ber of that nine-mem­ber panel.
And now that the con­gres­sion­al com­mit­tee inves­ti­gat­ing the events of January 6^th, 2021, at the Nation’s capi­tol has said Ginni Thomas was send­ing text mes­sages to Trump’s chief of staff Mark Meadows, demand­ing he do some­thing to keep Trump in pow­er, lib­er­als are livid, and they are demand­ing that Clarence Thomas resign.
Clarence Thomas was the only jus­tice on the nine-mem­ber pan­el to side with Donald Trump’s failed legal attempt to pre­vent House inves­ti­ga­tors from get­ting their hands on a vast trove of his pres­i­den­tial records. That ought to tell you how com­pro­mised, cor­rupt, and dam­aged this guy is. 

As Trump’s nean­derthal horde descend­ed on the cap­i­tal, break­ing glass, break­ing down doors, beat­ing cops, defe­cat­ing in offices, erect­ing gal­lows, and shout­ing hang Mike Pence, Ginni Thomas was busy egging on Mark Meadows to do some­thing to ensure that Trump stays in power.
“Help This Great President stand firm, Mark!!!”
“The major­i­ty knows Biden and the Left is attempt­ing the great­est Heist of our History.”
Some media hous­es report­ed that not only was Ginni Thomas tex­ting Mark Meadows to over­throw the gov­ern­ment; she was actu­al­ly at the cap­i­tal with the crowd of oth­er insurrectionists.
Democratic New York Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio Cortez tweet­ed on March 29^th; “Clarence Thomas should resign, if not, his fail­ure to dis­close income from right-wing orga­ni­za­tions, recuse him­self from mat­ters involv­ing his wife and his vote to block the Jan 6^th com­mis­sion from key infor­ma­tion must be inves­ti­gat­ed and could serve as grounds for impeach­ment.” 

Over the four years he occu­pied the White House, Donald Trump did noth­ing that any ratio­nal per­son could asso­ciate with great­ness. He start­ed with a dis­crim­i­na­to­ry Muslim ban, lock­ing immi­grant chil­dren in cages. He con­tin­ued by giv­ing him­self and peo­ple he admired, rich peo­ple, a mas­sive tril­lion-dol­lar tax cut. He broke sev­er­al laws and broached every protocol.
So even though we under­stand that Ginni Thomas and oth­ers who sup­port Donald Trump may be stuck in a dystopi­an sphere of cog­ni­tive dis­so­nance, it is impos­si­ble to asso­ciate Trump with any­thing great rationally.
If, how­ev­er, Ginni Thomas seri­ous­ly believed Trump to be a great pres­i­dent, it makes sense to con­clude that she is excit­ed and enthused by his racism.
The ques­tion then becomes, how does she view the black-skinned man she mar­ried? This is not about how Clarence Thomas feels about him­self but how his wife sees him.

It is safe to say that Clarence Thomas has an excep­tion­al­ly low impres­sion of him­self as a black-skinned man, and I will not malign him for that psy­cho­log­i­cal con­di­tion of self-hatred. He is cer­tain­ly not alone in that regard; over four hun­dred years of psy­cho­log­i­cal bom­bard­ment that Black is wack and white is right was sure to affect some more than others.
I am per­son­al­ly no longer angry at the likes of Clarence Thomas, Candace Owens, Larry Elder, and oth­ers; I feel pity and, yes, some shame for them. You deserve empa­thy when you become so far gone that you love your abuser more than you love yourself.
If Ginni Thomas sub­scribes to Trump’s racism and con­sid­ers him great, she [must] har­bor racist views as well.-How does those views square with hav­ing a black-skinned husband?
Is there any won­der that Clarence Thomas votes against Black peo­ple 100% of the time that a racial mat­ter reach­es the high court?
Clarence Thomas was appoint­ed to the court by Herbert Walker Bush, the 41^st pres­i­dent of the United States; Thomas faced a gru­el­ing con­fir­ma­tion process result­ing from sex­u­al harass­ment alle­ga­tions prof­fered against him by Anita Hill, a Black woman.
Some have argued that Thomas’ anti-black votes on the high­est court may have been influ­enced by what he char­ac­ter­ized at the time as a high-tech lynching.
That point of view is hard to rec­on­cile, at least with this writer; I find it hard to believe that he would for­ev­er be upset with a black woman who told the truth about him, yet cozies up to a race that abused him and his ances­tors for hun­dreds of years.
Again cog­ni­tive dissonance!
In the end, Clarence Thomas will not resign; he was nev­er a man that showed that kind of eth­ic or char­ac­ter. Clarence Thomas was always a house n****r, and that is what he will remain until he dies. As for Ginni Thomas, noth­ing will come of her con­spir­a­to­r­i­al actions; Biden has no one at Justice.
