Donald Trump is not wrong.
There is an enemy within our country.
An enemy that is un-American.
Vermin.
Trash.
Not one of us.
An enemy that must be removed.
By force if necessary.
We have been warned about this enemy every single day.
His name is Donald Trump.
Like Narcissus gazing into his reflection in the pool of water, the enemy, sir, is you.

For over half a century, Americans soaring confidence had always promised a sugar-frosted future filled with frost free fun and abundance and economic prosperity. But that Buoyant bubble of optimism has since gone bust. Along with our jobs, retirement funds

I have thought of that. If the unthinkable happens, and I believe in my heart it won’t, I will be deleting all my posts about Trump.

I won’t. I’ve been writing about him since 2015. I must have 50+ posts critical of him. I guess if he ever comes ‘after’ me, I might delete them, but not until then. I’ve even written a few fictional glimpses into the future where he has pursued legal action (and even deportation) against me.

I have just read your father’s eulogy Jeff. My brother’s memorial service is tomorrow.

I’m so sorry. My father died a month ago. It’s had a bigger effect on me than I expected. His memory has been failing for a few years, so the quality of our conversations has been pretty poor, but suddenly there are so many things I want to say to him. I hope tomorrow is a peaceful day for you.

It will be Jeff.
He had asked for medical assistance in dying. We were all prepared for his passing.

I am so sorry for your recent loss of your father Jeff. The loss of a parent is so primal that I don’t think no matter our age we can ever fully be prepared for it. And all those things we might still wish to say is so hard.

I am so sorry for both of your losses. Pierre, that must be a very difficult loss losing a brother and I send love to you for the memorial service.

I really won’t either. I was teasing. I too must have close to a hundred posts since the same time period, all critical. Not to mention I have art work that is critical of him, all that I am proud of. I would love to red your fictional post about his pursuing legal action and deporting you. Lets hope it remains in the realm of fiction and satire.

Very possibly prescient. But very funny. When I first set up my website, I noticed I got a great deal of traffic from US governmental agencies likely because there were references to nuclear bombs sand it set off some kind of red flag.

The GOP are already trying to begin Project 2025 policies as we speak. They’re not waiting for Trump.
People’s World (dot) org website said so. The Reublicans are starting Halloween early.
