("Trump Declares That U.S. Should Seize Control of Gaza")
He is looking at the game board and deciding his next move.
Having last year received his Get Out of Jail Free card, recently adding Daddy Warbucks to his arsenal of weapons, now definitely in the Catbird Seat, with the Wind at His Back, believing he holds the Trump Card, our Fearless Leader now seeks to Expand His Horizon and wipe out weaker players.
Panama and Greenland his for the taking. Canada but his Vassal. And now he has sights on Gaza.
With Power, in this version of Monopoly, there is no longer a vision of merely gobbling up the Atlantic City Boardwalk and populating it with Casinos in his name. Long forgotten is how he Declared Bankruptcy and was handed his Walking Papers in his earlier failed efforts. As if they were but a Mirage.
Today it is The World that is his Target. Moving pieces around, passing Go and Collecting a few Billion from those seeking to Curry Favor, he treats Humanity with disdain and disregard. As though it was worthy of nothing but His Contempt.
In this game which he has denominated Trump Takes What He Wants, nothing is sacred and no one is safe.
At the end of the day, there are only Losers in this Fantasy that has become far too real.
The Game of Life and Death, brought to you by the makers of The Insurrection.
And, it only gets worse.
Great insight! He thinks about everything as if he was playing Monopoly. --RE
