Reflections on life at “De Witte Wand”…

Even the Heavens Wept…

I see Trump has begun as he means to go on. His first speech as President was, as Gary Younge says:

as crude and unapologetic an appeal to nationalism as one might expect from a man incapable of rising to an occasion without first refracting it through his ego.

This is not the triumph of democracy, but a tragedy.

    And we elected him. Not you of course, and not me specifically, but we Americans did this. Zod help us.

    You have to have a bogeyman to use for justification. During the election process it was illegal Mexicans and then “crooked Hillary” – now we have the sky is falling justification for anything he wants to do.
