"...she's bragging about how she's going to hand the 2024 election to Donald Trump".

"As for Trump, he also has weighed in: 'I like her very much,' he said of Stein in June. 'You know why? She takes 100 percent from them'."

* Nuclear War, anyone? Never happen?

* How 'bout a super-accelerated multi-century gift of global warming? Like arriving tomorrow - or The Day After. Like the warm weather? Like it? I love it. All of it. Hot dogs, lobster boils. Coming soon to a theater near you.

* While we're at it, maybe another pandemic. It sure went away quick. Who says we can only have one? It's not out of the question. Ten plagues did God send to Egypt. Not nearly enough, perhaps... plenty more where that came from. And anyway, would reduce the human population - and we do need that.

* Oh, and we can't forget repression, suppression and oppression. Ah, repression...will make the pol-eese actions of the '50s and '60s look like a walk in the park. Don't kid yo'sef. We'll all soon be happy peasants toiling for a pittance, Warsaw ghetto unfortunates, first-world peons. And the boys (and girls) in uniform? Our very own Tiananmen Square.

Think this is a joke? Think again or just think. Let's use evolution's gift - our prefrontal cortex. Let's use our good brains. The writing's on the wall - front and center. It really won't tax us that much to use a little imagination. It's all foreseeable. In this case past will predict future.

Just open up 1984 and read:

"But always-- do not forget this, Winston-- always there will be the intoxication of power, constantly increasing and constantly growing subtler. Always, at every moment, there will be the thrill of victory, the sensation of trampling on an enemy who is helpless. If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face-- forever."
