We've been betrayed, tricked, duped, and dare I say.. bamboozled! But something about today (and the past week) feels off to me. Today's protest unfolded strangely; it doesn't make sense. Trump team is quiet, and Trump himself seems kind of "off" (not to mention his "disappearance")...
It's like I'm in the middle of a stageplay, surrounded by actors, or someone is about to get the drop on me. I know I'm being "fooled," I just don't know how.
Either Trump is about to pull the most epic Deus Ex Machina/Hail Mary in American history, or we're really, really screwed.
Every single one of us, even the ones who held the strongest suspicions because they were the ones who got duped first.
And that feeling? It's the feeling that you get when you feel the earthquake before the tsunami. An enormous amount of potential energy has just been released, but you don't know where it's going to come from even though you really ought to know, and the water has just receded from the coast and everyone's taking a very good look at the too-wide beaches.
