^"illumiinat" etc. It's like a parody of the way some conspiracy theorist types parrot any old stuff without thought. (unlike the conspiracy theorists here, of course)
The Trumpet bit is simply a report of what actually happened.
The Moving Finger writes; and, having writ. Moves on: nor all thy Piety nor Wit. Shall lure it back to cancal half a line, Nor all thy Tears wash out a Word of it.
Had a very disturbing dream last night, in which Trump was the despotic leader of the UK and was slaughtering animals, children and denying history all over the place. Dreamt I was setting off to work and found this large plastic pod parked on our driveway. Turned out to be either a portable abattoir or an opium processing plant ( do have a lot of poppies in our garden). My head is a bit all over the place at the moment!
I was just reading about some President in some little democratic country getting elected and I started thinking that those who want to own lots of things and amass more wealth that is good for must have been licking their lips when the idea of democracy was re-introduced into the world a few hundred years ago. If they can manipulate the elections in countries like the US and UK, all of these little backwater countries must be as easy as pie to own ... and you don't even have to pay full price. It's more like a long term lease.
