In the American real-time media
and English language youtube
Donald Trump, the 45th president
of the USA, once the great white hope
and now future has been,
is more mentioned than ever.
How long will it be
before he supplants Adolph Hitler
as the person to mention,
in pursuit of winning a weak argument,
as perpetuated by Godwyn's Law?
I couldn't quite tell whether it is me
or whether it is a mere side-effects
of the choice that youtube presents,
but I have succumbed to the vice
of watching American political news.
I think I know why I fell for it,
because what is presented works
as a self important soap opera,
where the more self important
a politician's comments seem
the more they suck the viewer in,
where the viewer senses the jeopardy
in the politician's public comments
will before before the politician does.
Does this explain the gravitational pull
of the black hole that is Donald Trump?
Other human black holes
full of empty noise are available,..
