The Trump Campaign

oh, that part? It’s not just Vance. You can also thank Megyn Kelly: Whatever happened to that? (Bashing the USSS doesn’t count. Nobody cares.) Trump even abandoned his ear bandage after the convention. And what are they campaigning on? Successful women are whores? Pregnant women are incubators? All elections are rigged?  Trump = destiny, and you don’t have a say in the matter?

These are the people who thought they were cruising to victory?


See, they return; ah, see the tentative 
Movements, and the slow feet,
 The trouble in the pace and the uncertain 
 Wavering! 

 See, they return, one, and by one, 

 With fear, as half-awakened; 
 As if the snow should hesitate 
 And murmur in the wind, 
 and half turn back; 

 These were the "Wing'd-with-Awe," 

 inviolable.

 Gods of the wingèd shoe! 
 With them the silver hounds,
 sniffing the trace of air! 

 Haie! Haie! These were the swift to harry; 
 These the keen-scented; 
 These were the souls of blood.

 Slow on the leash, 
 pallid the leash-men!

—Ezra Pound
