The Loss of America

On September 13, 1926 30,000 white-robed KKK members marched down Pennsylvania Avenue. The second wave of the Klan had been nourished by Woodrow Wilson, an adamant racist from pre-bellum Georgia. No police barred their progress through the predominantly black city. Warren Harding had been poisoned by Klaven assassins to prevent his resistance to the Klan, however the following presidents weakened the KKK and they almost vanished from America, even though lynching, police shootings, and racial suppression has remained a mainstay of America life, especially with the rise of the Orange Jesus.

In 2008 Howard Dean orchestrated the election of Barack Obama by attacking the GOP in every state with a simple message.

Change.

His reward for this epic from the DNC was exile from national politics and Obama's cabinet was packed with rightwing lawyers and bankers, yet the message sold in 2012, however in 2016 Donald Trump read the hinterland and spoke about the evil of Washington.

The swamp.

Hillary Clinton, a longtime Barry Goldwater inside, had spent $600 million of a political campaign run by two Beltway conservative think tanks. retort to his message and while she won the popular vote, Trump won the election thanks to the Electoral College.

2020 wasn't his year, however he had formed a religious racist cabal who attempted to overthrow the government on January 6, 2021. This hardcore nazis dedicated to bringing America back the the 1950s and tomorrow doesn't look good for the Democrats who rejected any help from the party's progressives. CNN and Fox News have been preaching defeat to their fervent;y religious audience dedicated to the Second Coming of the Orange Jesus. The Democrats had nothing to offer

Nothing.

This afternoon I went to a Brooklyn polling station. It was closed for lack of voters. Defeat was a foregone conclusion thanks to the propaganda from the mainstream media and the Second Coming Fundamentalist preachers. Am I willing to admit defeat?

No."

Tomorrow I'll go vote at dawn.

At night I watch the TV hoping for an upset.

We stole the election once.

Why not against?

Jews For The Orange Jesus

After the recent Shabbas I met with my Hassidic and Conservative Jewish friends. All of them had met in prison. For the most part their crime was fraud and I didn't consider them criminals. Ex-cons yes, but not criminals. They were drinking kosher wine and whiskey. I stayed with water, as I was waiting for a liver transplant. The midterm elections were only a week away and to a man they voiced their support for Donald Trump.

"You know his father was KKK?" I asked them.

"That was his father," answered, Yonni, the youngest Hassid, a young man with a lovely voice.

"And his followers are Nazis?"

"That's them, not him," answered our host, who called me the last of the Shabbas Goys. "Trump supports Israel and anyone who supports Israel gets out vote."

"Even though he might be a Nazi?" I was the only goy any of them knew.

"No one is perfect," replied Danny, who had served a six year bid in a federal prison.

"So now I understand that some German Jews voted for Hitler, thinking the Fuhrer might not be so bad."

"They couldn't vote for Hitler. They lost the right," protested by friend Joel, who had turned religious in prison.

"The Jews didn't lose the right to vote until 1935 and if you're voting for Trump, then some German Jews voted for Hitler."

"It doesn't matter as long as he supports Israel."

None of them has the right to vote due to their felon status.

Back in the 1960s almost 90% of American Jews voted for the Democrats.

Now almost 40% cast their ballot for the Orange Jesus.

They returned to their drinking and I realized that my one vote counted for more than any of them. Coming from the South Shore that meant vote early and vote often.

Especially against the Orange Jesus.

At least I know where he's heading.
