Longing for the Day That No One Talks About Trump

I know it's just a dream.

But how nice it would be not to hear about traitor Trump for a day.

Imagine the airways free of his mind-numbing corruption and calls to violence. No public threats to the government and people who just want peace.

Some civility would return without Trump's toxic input in social media for a day. Conspiracies would take a major blow without Don the Grifter pushing a constant flood of lies.

The communities that Trump is busy attacking will get a rest from his fascist rhetoric. The LGBTQ citizens would have a day of relief from the hate that Trump spawns among his cult.

Hate would go on holiday that magic day.

But my dream doesn't stop there. I look forward to Trump being incarcerated for the rest of his life for the crimes he committed against American democracy.

I look forward to justice and a return of some sanity in politics.

I look forward to Trump just being a shameful bookmark in our history, where his name is properly reviled.

As it stands, more than anything I hope our democracy withstands the curse of Trump.
