38. I don't dismiss that idea, Malaise. Not at all.
Tue Mar 31, 2026, 10:43 PM
Tuesday

There's a deep darkness in Trump, a grievance that can never be assuaged. His mental and physical decline is obvious and despite all his chest thumping and bellicose rantings, he knows he's an old man, weaker than he ever was, decaying despite the makeup, the shoe lifts, the preposterous hair. He's also a man filled with anger, uncontrollable rage against anyone who doesn't do his bidding, against all those he believes are beneath him.

Which I think encompasses the entire human race.

No, he will not go quiet into that good night, not without trying to take everyone with him. It's the final, spectacular revenge.

God help us all!
