2020 has been THE CURSE — the Trumpocalypse, a conflation of:
• 1918 pandemic
• 1929 economic crash
• 1942 concentration camps (for babies w/o parents)
• 1968 civil unrest
And some new innovations:
— unprecedented record climate-driven multi-state wildfires
— record climate-driven frequency and severity of hurricanes
— murder hornets
— national coin shortage (really?)
— large scale unprecedented migratory bird die-off
— death of nation’s top civil rights icon (John Lewis)
— death of the first “rock star” Supreme Court justice icon and pending replacement by a character straight outta “The Handmaid’s Tale.”
