Finely wrought and delicately nuanced. Thank you, Sir, for a thoughtful piece on the state of things at the moment. The Democrats have been exposed, at long last, for the shallow gutless sham that they are: thoroughly corrupted by AIPAC.

"Love among the ruins" was an excellent read and from it I have confidence your mom knew exactly what she was talking about from growing up under them. What an astute observation: she no doubt picked up on his criminality as well, a predominant feature of the Nazis.

This deserves to be a book not just a series on Substack. I've read your dad's book... Books are better as everything digital can be changed by the thought police 🙉🙊🙈

The good news is that fascism in inherently unsustainable. There was no "1000-year Reich"; Bannon won't even get the 50 years he wants.

The bad news is, it makes a big mess before it dies.

That's a gutless read. PEOPLE will decide this election WHEN THEY VOTE. Hopefully WOMEN will win this for the Democrats. Women would be INSANE to vote for a paedophile, mysogenist criminal, who'llset us back 100 years. . And hopefully the U.S. has not sunk so low, as to elect a treasonist felon who is a rapist and a snake oil salesman, as President.
