As always, you metaphors and similies are as delightful as your very black humor!
Ah, if only weren't based on something so real and vile! How can one man cast such an evil shadow on the entire planet, of which he clearly sees himself as a ruler?
Still, he is helping allies to unite and consolidate away from the U.S., which is no doubt healthier for them than allying themselves with a power as unreliable, as fickle, and as openly agressive and dismissive of democracy as it has become.
Without structural change, America will keep producing new demagogues with the reliability of a fast-food franchise. Each one will promise to fight the corrupt establishment while being funded by it. Each will claim to represent the forgotten while forgetting them immediately after taking office.
Trump's story is America's story, reflected back through a funhouse mirror that makes everything look more grotesque but somehow more honest. His troubles aren't just his—they belong to a system that's been held together with political duct tape and economic wishful thinking for decades.
Recollections of Bruce, Carlin, Pryor,the original Saturday Night Live. A story line not imagined but elucidated with stern but great humor, political. Big laughs with a tear. I take the day with a grin and bear it. Thanx as always.
