Wow.
That’s about anyone can say after these last few days, days which may go down as some of the craziest ever seen in the history of our nation. I am not going to say much here on the subject of candidate Trump. There’s not much to say except that this is not a big shocker to me. I’ve said it before: Trump has shown us who and what he is repeatedly over the past decades.
If you are surprised by any revelation about this creature– I hesitate to use the word man in this case– that has come out (or any that is bound to emerge because I have to believe there is plenty more in the bullpen just waiting patiently to be unleashed) then you haven’t been watching closely enough. Either that or you are, as my father likes to say– even in his current state of Alzheimer’s–among the most gullible people on the face of the earth.
And for those out there waking up this morning still believing that Trump is some kind of positive answer or agent of change, I feel pity for them. That kind of denial of reality can only point to a life that will be further filled with anger, hatred and discontent.
And that is a sad thing for them. And for those around them. And for this country.
Okay, enough said on that for now. I need some comforting on this ominously quiet Sunday morning. The painting at the top is a new 9″ by 12″ canvas that is part of my upcoming show at the Kada Gallery which opens October 29. I call this piece Adagio in Blue. It has a calming presence in its colors and composition that fulfills my needs this morning. I am coupling it with a classical piece this morning, the Adagio from Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 23 as played by French pianist Hélène Grimaud. It’s a beautiful piece and a well produced video presentation.
Think of it as a peaceful respite from the crap storm cutting through our political world at the moment. Relax and try to have a good day.
