Donald Trump screaming: I alone can fix it!
Republican National Convention chanting: Yes you will!!!
the republican party
is willing to trade
away its soul to
steal the goody-bag of
victory
collateral damages &
irreparable losses––
as we watch our virtues
drown––
rationality, integrity,
trust, honesty,
consistency, good
faith, courtesy,
morality, objectivity,
sportsmanship, conservatism,
generosity, dignity, nobility,
judgment, compassion,
wisdom, fairness, justice,
due process, tolerance,
democracy, respect,
patience, kindness, peace,
sanity, acceptance,
forbearance, forgiveness, consensus,
&
grace
let
idealism & pragmatism,
law & order,
pluribus & unum
be damned
the ego of one
is the firmament
of their
faith
with malice towards
many
& suspicious of
charity for all––
they publicly
divorce the better angels
of our nature
