To the editor:
What were we thinking? We kinda thought we were progressing. We always had a solid foundation that we were building on, namely the Constitution.
We were becoming increasingly self-sufficient with respect to energy production. Good things were happening around the globe. Peace was breaking out where we feared war was inevitable!
The economy was cranking. Wages were rising. Unemployment was low. That's progress, right?
Well, not if you ask a progressive.
We should have been (and are now) working to erase our history. Sending statues of our founders to the scrap heap should have been our highest priority. We should have been enriching our ruling class, not the working class.
We thought we could define a man and a woman. We thought our children should be taught, not indoctrinated and sexualized. Boy, were we wrong.
Thankfully, we're now reversing all the devastation that the deplorable, despicable President Donald J. Trump brought on us. Borders? We don't need no stinking borders. Police? Don't need them either. Viva Antifa!
Prosperity is something we should all be ashamed of. We didn't build that. As for your fair share, if you work more, you need to pay more, right? Wait a minute, isn't the way the tax code already works? That is, unless you're an evil corporation who does the worst thing of all ... employs people and makes them less dependent on government.
Well, thank goodness we're on the right track now. What were we thinking?
