Trump! The Masks Have Come Off

The Culmination of a long Developing Horror Story.
Regis and Edward Curtain discussed Edward’s recent article titled “The Masks Have Come Off,” which criticized Donald Trump as the “greatest blatant fraud” to occupy the White House. Edward highlighted Trump’s lack of political decorum and his warmongering tendencies, noting that his approval ratings have dropped significantly.

Edward and Regis discussed the possibility of Donald Trump being removed from office, either through a coup, health issues, or other unforeseen events. They discussed the erosion of fundamental freedoms in the United States, highlighting sophisticated censorship through AI and the loss of privacy due to surveillance by intelligence agencies. They expressed concern about the potential for martial law under Trump and emphasized the complicity of corporations and media in violating privacy rights. Edward concluded that Trump is the culmination of a 25-year trend of rights violations, comparing him to Hitler and suggesting that Americans are amusing themselves to death by electing an illiterate president.

Edward used the metaphor of Darby’s Castle, a song by Kris Kristofferson, to illustrate the collapse of Donald Trump and the America we once knew.

Oh, it took three hundred days
For the timbers to be raised
And the silhouette was seen for miles around
And the gables reached as high
As the eagles in the sky
But it only took one night to bring it down
When Darby’s castle tumbled to the ground
