Succinct. Exact. And so very sad. Hopefully, it's also a lesson learned about trump and his ilk. There is another trump-like person out there, maybe very young yet, maybe not even knowing yet what s/he will become.

Whew. GR8 brill toon NA. The putrid gluck of the rancid IdSwamp is drenching & stenching all of beset Murikkka .. Poor Conrad would have to re-title a book about Our time as 'The Bowels of Darkness.' It's thehorrorthehorror .. the pus of racysts, the bursting boils of whitewhite supremacysts; the fetid cruel pox of theocrazy, leaving a rampaging stupiding democrazy.. It is a bleak plague indeed & in deed. Yet, onward.
