The End of the Movie

One of the scariest things about Donald Trump—and the thing that finally pushed me to commit to voting for Joe Biden—is the fact that he lives for TV ratings, and that is literally ALL he lives for (he is a sociopath with no actual Ideology). In his mind, history begins and ends with him, and the world is watching, and he knows he has to make the end of the story dynamite, so it will live long past him. At this point, his main goal—as an elderly, unhealthy man with only a few years left—has to be to deliver a shocking, chart topping ending to the only story that matters, which is of course his story. We got a preview of his story arc when he had peaceful protesters tear gassed so he could do a photo-op with an upside down bible, but I am terrified to think of what dramatic moves he will make in the final scene of the movie, especially if he realizes he is losing his re-election to someone as cartoonish as Joe Biden. Here is to hoping the narcissistic fantasies of this sad man’s dying brain cause as few human casualties as possible.
