Letter to a Friend...
and a gentle middle finger to every liberal Dem who ignored the warnings and made this real...
Hey, M -
I'm looking at this and feeling not a trace of shock -- absolutely zero surprise. After the Russiagate hoax, the Banana Republic trials that were a slap in the face to the constitution, the FISA forgeries, Mango Caesar is pissed. Now, they've created the Trump that only existed in the confines of their propagandized, colonized minds, a demon summoned by ignorance, fear, and a blissful eagerness to be wholly indoctrinated and numb. Now we get the Trump that only existed in the minds of propagandists like Don Lemon and Anderson Cooper, and those squawking magpies on The View. Now we do get full-blown fascism, initiated by Genocide Joe, who passed the baton, this time sweeping censorship powers, to the Fred Flintstone of modern fascists. Congratulations, liberal America! They created the monster they needed to keep their wealth extraction and forever war continuing unperturbed. Anything but moving toward the sensible economic models of European Social Democracy. This is why it’s time; especially time to ignore anyone claiming they can reform the Democratic party, like feckless Bernie Sanders, who will — I promise you — kiss the ring again when the time comes.
This is exactly what I said would happen. I guess I have to capitulate now: They're right -- Trump is our biggest problem. Now. Thanks a fuckin' lot, America.
Usually I apologize for my political rants, but Jesus... I find it hard to believe you're not as dismayed by this as I am. I’m not surprised, that’s true. But earlier in my life, I thought I'd die before I saw one president destroy the 1st Amendment and commit genocide, then hand that power to a numbskull tyrant who's planning on shredding the constitution and arresting Americans and deporting them for exercising their 1st Amendment rights.
I used to think we had a few more years...
See ya later, everyone, unless Mango Caesar locks me up. Believe it or not, I'm starting to get noticed as a political writer. I'll send you a letter from Guantanamo....
I have an interesting follow-up, nothing to do with politics, but good grief. Sometimes I need to express my exasperation to someone who has more than two brain cells bouncing around in their noggin.
No need to respond if you ain't feeling it.
Peace,
Pauly
