Is Trump Caligula or Caligari? Caligari could have picked his cabinet. His executive orders intentionally take aim at literally every humane governmental intervention of the past 50 years. Indeed, vengeance seems to be the overarching mandate of this second Trump presidency. Would Bob Guccione have made a movie about him using Access Hollywood as a starting point? But the Dark Ages also come to mind. There's Laura Loomer and QAnon against the background of a plague. On a daily basis one gasps at the latest impossibility ie voodoo economics, book burning and the repudiation of science. Humankind has devolved to an earlier more primitive state where war to quote Clausewitz is a definition of diplomacy. Where is my Roy Cohen? was title of a film taken from a Trump quote. Remember Camelot and The Great Society?This is the age of a presidential advisor who walks around with a chainsaw, Steve Bannon, Tucker Carllson, a pillow manufacturer named Mike Lindell (creating his own mathematics) and a Vice President who charges refugees with eating pets.
Question of the day: Will Trump be reincarnated as a caddy?
