One Day at a Time, 1,441 days to go

Countdown 1,441

One day at a time.

One hour at a time.

One second at a time.

Cleansing the federal government

of the dreaded DEI,

diversity, equity, inclusion,

a Doge worker removes from

a supervisor’s desk in an intelligence agency,

a plaque that reads

“Be kind to everyone.”

Does this sentiment violate

the chaos president’s agenda?

At a news conference

an Afghan journalist, a woman,

asks what plans the chaos president has

for Afghanistan.

He pretends not to know what she says.

He claims he cannot understand

a word that she says.

This may be true.

She is asking for compassion and empathy.

He does not understand compassion and empathy.

A president ignorant of compassion and empathy

is a dangerous thing.

Can we survive him?

One day at a time.

One Day at a Time, 1,443 days until next inauguration

 Countdown 1,443

One day at a time.

One hour at a time.

One second at a time.

One thousand, four hundred and forty-three more days of continuing chaos.

Watch what he does, not what he says.

But his saying is a doing.

How can his words be ignored?

He says the U.S. will take Gaza,

Rebuild it, turn it into a Middle East Riviera.

How? How? Howl! Howl!

Palestinians howl, never, never, never.

Some Israelis rejoice.

The U.S. will do the ethnic cleansing for them.

That would required 3,333 of the largest passenger planes.

With planes taking off every five minutes,

it would take two years to ethnically cleanse Gaza.

Has the great wheeler-dealer, the deal maker, the real estate mogul

Considered the logistics?

Of course not.

He’s only doing a shtick.

He’s playing at being president

while the billionaire and Project 2025 gang

continue to demolish our democratic government.

I wait for him to say Gaza will be the 52nd state

(after Canada becomes the 51st).

Watch what the billionaire and Project 2025 gang do

While he entertains the MAGA,

And the world cries.
