Grandma said some day we'd have to fight like hell for the survival of our nation. She said we should be ready to fight like we're the third monkey in line to get on the Ark, and it's staring to rain pretty good. She also said we'll have to be ready to hang the sons-a-b*****s who want to bury us deep!
Well, I think that time is about here.
If it is true, as a Washington Informer Opinion writer, Wilmer J. Leon III, said, our "shinning city on a hill" is truly a mirage. It's really about "unbridled capitalism, the insatiable lust for resource and the exploitation of foreign labor and markets."
I think I would also add "authoritarianism" to that happy little list. Our democracy is about to go on life-support and wheeled down the hall to the hospice ward if a certain Mr. Trump is true to his promises upon entering the Oval Office again. He has laid out his "dream nation" where only the rich will rule. They, alone, will call the shots - only after he, alone, will write the shots.
The riff-raff of the country will pay the taxes, do the grunt work, march down to the voting booth to place an "X" in front of the only name on the ballot, and cheer for the winner at the appropriate times.
The MAGA/Republican Cult has out-maneuvered the rest of us and only we are to blame. We were warned so many times, but we just never thought it would happen in America.
And that's what we get for thinkin'!
Grandma told us - she abso-damn-lutely told us!
And now she's working hard on the solution.
