It's Not Funny

Well, maybe it is funny - if "funny" is whatever makes me laugh.


I mean if someday we might all be able to look back and laugh on trimp, W, and Reagan, why not get a head start right now?


I suppose some of those unable to laugh right now NEVER thought Regan was a "great president", W was a "strong leader", and trimp is a legitimate expression of the popular will.  Maybe such people worked so hard to prevent these catastrophes?  Maybe they are still struggling so desperately to resist the incoming onslaught of depredations and depravities?  Maybe their courageous exertions have depleted any capacity to find humor?


Maybe laughter is a luxury their morality will not permit them to indulge in?

Maybe they are, in addition to their exhaustion, overcome with terror and compassion at what's likely to happen if the only lasting legacy of trimpulism is Associate Justice Gorsuck on the Supreme Court for a generation to come.

They would be right.

It's not really funny.


But maybe, someday?
