This Day in Misery

by David Belisle

Two impeachments. Kids in cages. The Helsinki Hell Show. The list goes on, all daily bombshells setting off anew the Trump trauma hanging over our heads as we huddled in our homes, pining for Ye Olde Obama principles. We wrote off the cacophony of caustic events as sheer lunacy, all the while praying for an ending to this madness that had desecrated the Oval Office, the Republican party and right-wing America.

Here are 1399 of the undeniable dents to democracy Trump and his inexperienced underlings were only too happy to inflict in the power grab they continue to project in their sleep. Set up as a calendar year with each fact nailed to source, This Day in Misery carefully lays out the proverbial matches Trump and his transient troupe lit for 365 days of multiple dumpster fires -- the political maelstrom still burning through We the People and our Constitution today. 1399 reasons for never again. Use them. Abuse them.

About the author

A scant 300 km from an America awash in authoritarianism, I can only watch. And write. “Remember Mar-a-Guano!” and my latest book “Put the Chairs in the Wagon” bring home the trials and tribulations of my birth country being thrown out with the bath water. I hang out my shingle in Calgary, where I live with my wife and our chihuahua princess, Maybelline.

Excellent Reminders

This was very thorough and well documented. I think it would've been more cohesive chronologically rather than by date. But then it would've needed a different title.

This is a must read! I shows how Trump and the-trumpets are destroying our country!
