THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION : ACT III

This spooky convention ended as it began, with Trump looking into a dark mirror.  This bizarre aging Narcissus talked endlessly about an exclusive future for America, in a state of paranoid denial : recognition of globalization, trade, alliances repose on self-interest rather than on values.  There is almost no room for a more inclusive component.  Most Republican lemmings chose to follow this new version of Pied Piper of Hamelin.  The smarter ones preferred to stay home, safe.  Despite Ivanka, this was a sad, pessimistic, noisy affair.
