The Triumph of Death

"The Triumph of Death" by Brueghel the Elder

Death gets things done is the message of Dostoevsky's Grand Inquisitor. The great poem lies at  the heart ofThe Brothers Karamazov. Trump will star in the first episode of the series "The Triumph of Death," based on the Brueghel painting when he visits Springfield next week--to rally crowds against all the "legal" Haitian immigrants who are eating pets. Whether it's 5:38 or Quinnipiac, all the polls indicate the election will be very close. Even if Kamala Harris wins, there are the raging maggots aka MAGAs. If nothing else the seeming infallibility of terrorist organizations like ISIS has demonstrated you can't kill an ideology. Hamas has nine lives. Will Trump accept defeat? It's lucky Biden will be in office in the event Kamala Harris confirms her positive election results at president of the senate. At least this time, the National Guard will be in attendance. In American Dharma Steve Bannon exhibited his erudition by quoting Milton's famous, "better to reign in hell than serve in heaven." He could have taken the words right out of the current Grand Inquisitor's mouth.
