Our democracy is a bit like “Mad Max – Pennsylvania Avenue”

Dear Democracy,

You’re just 249 years old and you’re beginning to show up. You are creaking of some sort, and the liver spots are well and dark. I hardly recognize you these days.

Of course, that’s understandable. You’ve been under a lot of stress lately. This is what happens in the family when relatives get absolutely, completely bat crazy.

Watching the country you were born into a dystopian version of Mad Max – Pennsylvania Avenue, you’re sure your founding parents are spinning in their graves.

Also, perhaps we are not realised that we are now led by the actual, lifeless, tyrannical replicants of “Animal House” Brut Bretterski.

Years ago, a group of sleazy troublemakers like Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, and Benjamin Franklin were basically one giant (well, you’re saying Donald Trump is well aware of).

As they say, it was a great read. That’s not yet.

Still, if you don’t mind taking the risk of ending in a Somali prison and updating the list of settlers’ complaints, it won’t hurt. Think of the birthday present and the air kiss of resistance against a felony convicted of 34 counts, which amounts to a box equivalent to a river box.

He is surrounded by a team of Sniber, whose sole purpose in life is to say faw humiliation and bows, often to be a sissy.

He treated the US Constitution as if it were dirty baby diapers.

He has been responsible for the country’s healthcare system, which until recently was considered one of the best in the world. Vaccine ignorance was seen as a follower of non-literary conspiracy theories, in which America would kill millions of people and kill America again.

He placed Kabutol Bailey on the heads of nearly three million people in the US Department of Defense.

He represents you with a Jaywalk ticket to oversee the US Department of Justice, a woman who doesn’t trust you to represent.

He fired prosecutors, scientists and countless federal employees to do work that simply committed the fundamental crime of ability.

He bullied the US Congress to pass one big beautiful Bundogur bill that denies over 11 million low-income citizens Medicaid and food stamps to fund the tax cuts of his wealthy friends. Well, no one is living forever.

He used his office to scam, scam and rip unsuspecting deceptions, enriched himself and his family into billion-dollar songs with fake investment schemes and cheap=Mond Gee Go. If Bernie Madoff was still alive, he would likely have been appointed Secretary of the Treasury.

He decorated his oval office as if it were “the best whore home in Texas.”

Has he rounded up undocumented immigrants for non-criminal deportation, including a 64-year-old Iranian woman who had been in the country for 47 years, a university student who expressed critical views, three US Marine fathers, and even a well-known child?

He oddly launched an absurd tariff war that threatened to undermine the powerful and prosperous economy he inherited from President Joe Biden.

He doesn’t know how to tie his ties together.

He denied the simple legitimate process of those charged with crimes.

He attacked judges and other civil servants he disagreed with.

He forgives some 1,500 rebels, traitors and thugs who took part in the January 6 attack on the Capitol, where more than 140 law enforcement officials were seriously injured. Professional courtesy?

He is hampering solar panels from electrical charging stations, electric vehicle tax credits and environmental initiatives. Incidentally, in his first 100 days, American taxpayers cost $60 million, covering the cost of Trump’s trip to Mar Arago to play golf.

He said he told an estimated 20 lies in his second term in a day. It worked out over 30,600 whoppers, untruth and misstatements in his first period.

He tricks golf.

And the democracy of our dear friend, we consider these truths self-evident.
