some kind of wonderland

Our country is witnessing a decline in morals, intelligence, values and the pursuit of happiness, for all of us who are not either the 1%, The Trump Crime Family or the list of politicians on a long list of people, mainly Republicans to be blackmailed. The foil that is Trump, the intention to deceive which was Putin and McConnell, and the blatant drive to lie, slander and establish rumor and innuendo which is FOX News; aside from the hacking of polling places with the assistance of Republican operatives in a half-dozen states has been a blessing for those who hate America, and in particular those who anyone perceived as different. Perhaps some, at the time of the 2016 election was dazzled by the bright shiny object identified as Trump, but like the bulb lighting the porch on a summer’s eve, attracting insects, eventually the closer the bug gets to the light and the longer the light remains lit, most any living thing coming close to it either suffers a hideous torture or a long lingering death! We, the People, the ones who do not wear MAGA hats, the ones who understand that the South lost the Civil War, the people who understood that winning WWII meant freedom and equality, and those who know that democracy even at its worst is better than living under the rule of a dictator…have finally woken from the nightmare, many of them created…and KNOW that Trump IS dangerous, delusional, a criminal and finally described as a ROUGE president. Isn’t it time We the People finally take to the streets and DEMAND the resignation, the impeachment, the prison time for a man whose mental illness IS so great as to deter his ability to remain Command-In-Chief. If not now when?

Lewis Carroll wrote the stories of Alice in Wonderland-Alice Through the Looking Glass, and Alice and the Mad Hatter. His characters were filled with bizarre identities, and even stranger beliefs and actions. At times I MUST also wonder if this era of Trump and the Treasonous Republicans is not one more Lewis Carroll novel, involving the weirdest of creatures and a not so wonderful wonderland in which these creatures thrive. So, I have lots a few quotes which cause me to pause, concern and an immediate correlation between fiction and fact. And yes Kellyanne facts matter, and no Rudy, a lie is not a good lie or bad lie, just a lie…the same as the only kind of Nazi is a bad Nazi…

“It’s no use going back to yesterday, because I was a different person then.” Alice-
“Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.” The White Queen-
“I don't think..." then you shouldn't talk, said the Hatter.
“Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.”-The White Queen
“Curiouser and curiouser!”-Alice
“Off with her head”-The Queen of Hearts

We the People have been tumbling, spinning and falling deeper and deeper in a hole. Let's begin IMMEDIATELY to climb back to our reality, not the agenda of Putin/Trump/and McConnell
