Procrustes Stretched
Dante's Manifesto
Donald Trump has announced that on principle, he is dropping out of the presidential race. "In all good conscience..." he said, "I would be trashing the very principles our great nation was founded upon, if I were to stay in the race." "Plus, unlike Sleepy Joe Biden, I will not be going down in history as a complete and utter hypocrite. For the good of the country, and out of respect for the US Constitution, I am dropping out of the race."
And with that, America was saved from an unprecedented constitutional crisis.
President Biden's campaign issued a statement saying "The fact that Mr. Trump today, acknowledged he shouldn’t be allowed to run -- that if he were to run and win this election, it would create an unprecedented constitutional crisis. This is a testament to Mr. Trump's love of principle and country. In a situation where he would insist on staying in the race, we could very well be going through an unprecedented constitutional crisis, where a presidential candidate representing a major political party, the once great Grand Old Party, was convicted of felonies would be running for the highest off in the land.
Mr. Trump graciously saved us all from that.
God Bless Mr. Trump and God Bless America!
