America, the Reality Show

Note: This post is a sarcastic take on the next 4 years. It is not meant as serious political commentary. I hope the next 4 years doesn’t change that.

Coming to your home – whether you like it or not – the cutting-edge reality show that is America. Brought to you by dictators and authoritarian rulers across the globe in cooperation with the star of the show, our president, Donald J. Trump.

See the chaos created by appointed department heads who know nothing about the departments they lead. Witness the implosion of a democratic system of government that stood for 250 years at the hands of sycophants and media personalities. Thrill to the wealth that is bestowed upon our president as he utilizes his global properties for government use – at inflated rates. Feel the love as our president aligns with those sponsoring dictators and authoritarians whom he admires so much – and according to him, share those feelings for him. Watch in awe as relationships with allies are torn apart and global institutions are left in tatters.

Stand by as the new unelected billionaire bureaucrats gut regulations limiting their ability to make more money while also removing protections and avenues of recourse for regular citizens. Watch these new alligators chase the existing wildlife out of the swamp, turning the ecosystem on its head. Marvel at how the swamp has been transformed – no wait, it’s still the same just with different occupants.

With ratings the ultimate goal, and profiteering a close second, the new elite will use their positions and power to keep viewers glued to the show. Expect plenty of commercial breaks to hawk products that further enrich the MAGA rulers at the expense of their viewers. Since chaos and outlandish words and behavior drive both, there will be plenty to soak in as we watch this unfold and listen to their double-speak that would even scare George Orwell.  

Welcome to the new world order where anyone can be a reality show star if they suck up to the president and his minions. Tune in each day to see the shenanigans and find out how the rest of the world is reacting to the star’s performance. See if the ratings are high enough over the next 4 years to warrant an extension or if the country cancels the party, I mean show.
