and now for something completely different
A campaign oddity that suddenly came to mind as I woke up this morning: Remember earlier in the campaign when Donald Trump would suddenly stop his ranting to say that he had a meaningful poem he needed to read? He'd unfold his sheaf of papers and very unpoetically plod through something called "The Snake." What he thought it meant (Never trust anyone not named Trump?) he never said. Once the poem was read, he'd go on to other things. Still, whether Christian or Freudian or just curious, one might find the meaning of a poem called "The Snake" probably fraught, vexed, and imbricated.
