The Seemingly Endless Nightmare That Is Trump

We’ve all had the thought that life in the United States is like one of those anxiety dreams where we’re trying to escape danger, but we’re wading through molasses, and what initially looked like a small pond is revealed to be a large lake, and then perhaps an endless, shark-infested sea.

Here’s the latest chapter in the surreal: Another attempt on Trump’s part to fleece his many still-loyal supporters:

Former President Donald Trump asked supporters Friday in his online newsletter for donations toward his “impending” lawsuit against CNN for calling his claims of voter fraud regarding the 2020 presidential election “baseless,” according to The Daily Beast. 

“I’m calling on my best and most dedicated supporters to add their names to stand with me in my impending lawsuit against fake news CNN,” wrote Trump. “Add your name immediately to show your support for my upcoming lawsuit against fake news CNN.”

If the nightmare does indeed have an end, it will not derive from any lack of energy from either Trump or the tens of millions of hateful morons who have his back.  The only possible alarm clock that can awake this country is criminal prosecution, and even that’s a guarantee of nothing whatsoever.
