Facing a presidency with few restraints on it and openly hostile to the press, Drew ponders an Alaskan gulag and the power of Pooh's Corner and Kate Bush.
I was compelled to read your article before I got to the serious stuff that would probably make me mad since I'm already feeling such conflicting emotions and raging or reeling, still.
So thank you for the eloquent levity. Now I'm pondering what I would have in my cell - really if anything, because as a Black woman I'll be afforded even less than Al Roker. I'll have to conjure up something spiritually like Harriet Tubman, and use that to free you, Roker, and King. Cause that's what Black women step up to do 😉.
Yes, Drew, it is best if you stick to interior decorating. After all, you don't seem to realize we are a REPUBLIC and our founders abhorred democracy. Of course, that is not the democracy of today:
“Democracy” has become the new pseudonym of “progressivism”, which is the misnomer of “socialism”, “Marxism”, and “Leninism”. It is, in reality “statism” : concentration of economic controls and planning in the hands of a highly centralized government often extending to government ownership of industry.
I suppose when you are too embarrassed by your own ideology, you’ll call it anything to obfuscate what it truly is. Recall this, the next time you encounter the phrase “our democracy”, or the claim of being “progressive”.
When you see anyone talk about changing/eliminating the Electoral College, realize that they are claiming to have wisdom greater than the Founders of our nation. They are also attempting to overthrow the republic for a democracy that the Founders resoundingly rejected, warning of the dangers and inadequacies of a democracy.
Wonderfully done, Drew. We "Enemy of the People" need humorists too.

“Humor” can indeed evoke tears. Thank you.
