Speed Painting 56: Trump & The Last Supper



I've been following the US elections these last few months on spurts. I can't fully concentrate on them full time because of so much bullshit from either side, that it turns it into more of a burden then entertainment. Then again, I'm much more jaded when it comes to politics than most people. There was a national-level incident back in my home when I was a little kid that directly affected my dad and then my entire family, and lets just say it took more than a decade to completely get over it.

Rather than just promises I heard from the left & right (and.. those other 2), it was interesting to see how the population reacted to the entire political process. Trump whether you like or dislike him, is this enigma that has many tuning in to see what he says next. It's almost like he was a tv personality that went into politics and knows how to sell a crowd.

What I noticed which kinda creeped me out more than anything, is this huge distaste and alienation between one another or many groups. Family members no longer speaking to one another because of their political affiliations. People putting themselves in groups and pushing other groups away, sometimes without noticing, instead of all getting together and focusing on making change by putting pressure on the government and the politicians instead.

  1. If you have a minute, I’d really appreciate it if you took a look at Emily’s Virtual Rocket. This is a serious newsblog which has been taken from e-newspapers and e-magazines from around the world, with an emphasis on transgender issues. Also, with his election, I look for articles which critique Donald Trump.
