"What did you do in the Great Plague, Daddy?"

[kentuck]

"Well, Child...it was a scary time...People were afraid to breathe the air. Everybody wore masks and washed their hands all the time."

"Why did they do that, Daddy?"

"Well, Child, there was a bug that nobody could see that got released upon the world. It was like the Grim Reaper that could pop up anytime and kill someone you loved."

"What did the President do to help the people, Daddy?"

"Well, he didn't help the people very much. He did more harm than good. He mostly tweeted on his twitter machine and called people names."

"Why didn't they fire him, Daddy?"

"Well, Child, people were too busy buying toilet paper and playing politics. He was very good at dividing people into different sides."

"When did it end, Daddy?"

"Well, Child, it was like a miracle. After people voted him out of office that November in 2020, and the weather warmed up that spring, in April, it just disappeared. People finally realized that the real plague was in the White House. You are lucky, my Dear. You will never have to experience what your Daddy did when he was a little boy..."

4. I'm almost certain...

...that things will only get worse so long as Trump is in office. Except for the stock market, that is. I suspect most of the money appropriated to the wealthy benefactors will end up in a bubble on Wall Street?
