【I Am a Plaything】

*

Natural disasters: a time when Americans of all backgrounds come together to help one another,I Am a Plaything and President Trump fundraises for his next campaign.

On Monday afternoon, the Republican National Committee sent out a fundraising email with their typical hysterical-paranoid subject line: "ISOLATED?" The email harped on some of Trump's favorite political themes including his hatred of Hollywood and the mainstream media, and his love for excessive capitalization.

You may have read multiple news reports suggesting that Trump was feeling increasingly isolated in the White House but you were WRONG WRONG WRONG.

Per the email, Trump feels GREAT. He doesn't like Hollywood or the mass media or any of those losers ANYWAY. He DOESN'T CARE if they don't come to his birthday party because EVERYONE KNOWS THEY'RE NOT FUN.

A great book by a great guy, highly recommended! https://t.co/3jbDDN8YmJ

To be fair, some folks also received a Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee fundraising email during this time. And while the language isn't quite as anxious, it looks like every about-to-breakup text I've ever received.

"We're begging ... We are in desperate need of your help."

During this critical time, I'd like to ask you to donate to my Patreon so I can be financially independent and never have to look at the internet again.
