To the Editor:

I hid a ticking clock in the trunk of a rotten old tree. It drove the woodpeckers crazy. Ignoring tasty bugs all around them, they just about beat their brains out trying to get at the clock. My model for understanding capitalism, communism, Christianity and all other systems that traffic in future rewards rather than in present realities.

Don the Magic Christian moved the Embassy to Jerusalem, a move that will cost you pothole- loving taxpayers up to one billion dollars. Casino Don downplays the amount, perhaps it’s $130,000. Everything else is. But what they’ve got now is a shed for the rakes, the completed Embassy will take ten years. An added bonus, the price of oil is rising and Vlad is thrilled. America’s gasoline goes up, see how this works?

While a hit with the ideological Trumpanzees, the whole spectacle was pretty nuts. Moving a building has nothing to do with biblical prophecy. Do the “Lock Her Up” hillbillies even understand the evangelicals just lit the fuse for Armageddon? Netanyahu donated a ton of money to Trump and Bolton is jonesing for WW3.The color of the meat is red.

The delightful ceremony featured a benediction delivered by two pastors straight out of Mississippi Burning: The Musical. Theocratic nutjobs John Hagee and Robert Jeffress stood at the crossroads of civilization and religion under our flag. They’ve preached that Hitler fulfilled God’s Will and they gleefully antagonize Jews, Catholics, Islamists, and Mormons, insisting they won’t go to Heaven.

While protestors were being murdered outside, White House “advisors” Jared and Ivanka received a blessing from Rabbi Yosek, who has compared blacks to kushis(monkeys) and declared Catholics the “genius of Satan”.
Falwell Jr., Graham Jr. and hundreds more of these vile preachers use religion to taste the sweet nectar of political power for expedient partisan purposes, which is central to their lives, not God. Wherever you see this fusion of religion and political power, there ends up being less freedom, a hallmark of autocracy. Pharisees in the Temple. Soulless people in league with a soulless President.

Don the Grifter recently exposed to have been bribed not only by Russia, but also China, Qatar and United Emirates, is running scared at home. Don the Bellicose is throwing his weight around overseas to save face. However, he is losing the PR game as vigilant TV watchers will note. Judy Riuliani is no match for Mueller’s team and Avenatti.
The US Government is going to put Trump so far back into the catacombs that they’ll have to pump sunshine in to keep him from growing moss.

The brilliant Malcolm Nance predicts Trump will resign sooner than later, and Nance knows his stuff. Don the Coward doesn’t fancy jail. In the meantime, keep resisting and avoid woodpeckers.
