Earth Needs a Victory

Yes, President Trump, "Our Country needs a victory!" On this, we are all multi-party agreed. Some of us recognize the only direct route to this national success, economic and political and social and cultural, is united in our stated urgency, "Our Earth needs a health victory!" Others don't. And you would distract us with your confused world view, in which the boundary between your own ego and our shared national and planetary ecosystems are too pathologically fuzzy to meet even the minimal standards of Reality TV. Wiser leaders have learned to be silent and go on quiet retreat when such serious personality disorders rear their unfortunate undemocratic capitalistic straight white patriarchal supremacist heads With understated consciousness and unappreciated absence of Earth healing victory, for it is only Earth Herself who might reductively exclaim "L'etat, c'est moi!"
