My next post will be in six months time, perhaps never. I will refrain from quoting my lines here. By which time we will see all the beautiful visions of the leader come into shape, the Wall, end of women claiming their right over their body, no more Muslims entering, the Russians reclaiming Eastern Europe, Carbon emission back on track, Pipelines galore with American steel. Any protesters? A thing of the past. Sick people can fend for themselves, they did before, poor people can die anyway. America first and "it will be the most beautiful thing in the world anybody could ever imagine". "Fake News" reporters - in prison, and liberals and protesters. Prison? No, no room, camps will have to do. Then finally we will see some "real news", the news the leader wants us to see. He knows best and all the billionaires in the cabinet, because they have the inside knowledge - they know what's best for us. You might think didn't "Fake News" uncovered Watergate and Fifa corruption, publish Wikileaks and other things??? Naaaa, it was all fake news in the first place, but now we will have TRUTH, because we are Truthers.
I am seventy now, being German history was a core subject, read Machiavelli, discovered where my parents Generation went wrong after the Weimar Republic, heard first hand from survivors, met a person who survived the camps, heard all the excuses after the war, the justification. Unfortunately it didn't bring back the dead. Oh yest, I forgot, it all happens for a reason and for the greater good. Now is day zero and soon America will be great again - and on its own - but first.
