The End . . .

". . . finally, the end is at hand. Trump is suffering a series of wounds that, in combination, are likely to be fatal after Joe Biden is sworn in on January 20. Trump is obviously going to surrender his office. Beyond that looming defeat, he is undergoing a cascading sequence of political, financial, and legal setbacks that cumulatively spell utter ruin. Trump is not only losing his job but quite possibly everything else. . .What appeared to be a brilliant strategy for escaping consequences was merely a tactic for putting them off. The bill is coming due. . ."

This must really be
This must really be the end
Nothing could be fitter
This must really be
This must really be the end
Make no mistake it's bitter

Feelings . . .

https://depositphotos.com/vector-images/feelings.html

". . . David French, the conservative Christian writer who fought in the Iraq war, says the way to build a sane G.O.P. is to borrow a page from the counterinsurgency handbook: Separate the insurgents from the population. . . That means prosecuting the rioters, impeaching the president and not tolerating cyberterrorism within a community or congregation. . . Others have to be reminded of the basic rules for perceiving reality. They have to be reminded that all truth is God’s truth; that inquiry strengthens faith, that it is narcissistic self-idolatry to think you can create your own truth based on what you “feel.” There will probably have to be pastors and local leaders who model and admire evidence-based reasoning, wrestling with ideas. . ."

Lest . . .

. . . we forget 

https://www.shutterstock.com/search/homeless

So I said,
I've got a roof o'er my head.
Some people can't even say the same thing.
But it's still not a fact
I can take any comfort in.
I want more to make up my legacy.
I'm not poor but everybody's telling me

Money can't buy everything.
You've heard it time again.
No money can't buy happiness.
When will you learn this fact of life my friend?

So I said,
I've got my very own bed.
I don't give it much thought
When I lay down my head.
But it's cold and it's lonely
In December on the street.
Why do you tell me these kinds of things.
I want more of luxuries that wealth can bring.

I want to be a squire a king a country gentleman
If I can if I can.
I want to get respect for what I have 
And not for what I am, 
Just a man, just a man.

So I said,
It's more than daily bread
That I'm talking about.
Can't you hear what I said.
You see, everything changes 
But we have to admit
What exists needs to be recognized
Not merely out of our fear of being chastised.

Understand . . .

https://www.dreamstime.com/illustration/psychiatrist-listening.html

Speaking your mind can be both blessing and curse. 
Doing, you’ll find, is honest but still it hurts. 
But over time you can adjust.
Conscience or no, all doubt will disburse.

I don’t understand there are subtleties. 
I don’t understand more than black and white.
I only see right and only see wrong.
There is only weak. There is only strong.
I can’t comprehend things like empathy,
How to put myself in somebody’s place.
I never considered such things. 
No ‘R’, ‘O’, or ‘I’ could it bring,
So uncomplicated to think of myself, only myself.

Can’t toe the line, cannot learn anything new.
Back in my past, no one expected me to.
One thing I knew, I’m one of few
That could not lose. That’s compulsory.

What a mistake placing our trust 
In one so damaged inside.
So much at stake. See them, see us.
Confusion obscured his lies.

Speech . . .

f
https://www.123rf.com/photo_21558730_vector-cartoon-of-confident-public-speaker.html

(from https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?ogbl#inbox/FMfcgxwKkRKchLCJhvVCQvVsThprdJWN) 
". . . Trump’s former press secretary, wrote, “This is not China, this is United States of America, and we are a free country.” . . . In fact, Twitter and Facebook’s ejection of Trump is pretty much the opposite of what happens in China; it would be inconceivablefor the Chinese social media giant Weibo to block President Xi Jinping. Trump’s social media exile represents, in some ways, a libertarian dream of a wholly privatized public sphere, in which corporations, not government, get to define the bounds of permissible speech. . .Americans don’t have a constitutional right to have their speech disseminated by private companies. . ."
