You Knew I Was a Snake"
A fable that is told with many variations:
The Farmer and the Snake
One winter day, a farmer found a snake by the roadside, stiff and motionless with cold.
"If you put me inside your shirt," the snake said, "your body will make me warm and I won't freeze to death."
"Oh, I know your kind," replied the farmer. "If I pick you up, you will bite me."
"Oh no," the snake objected. "Why would I do such a thing, if you are good enough to help me?"
So the farmer had compassion on the snake, and taking it up, he put it inside his shirt. The warmth quickly revived the snake, and resuming its natural instincts, it bit its benefactor, inflicting on him a mortal wound. "Oh," cried the farmer with his last breath, "why did you bite me? You promised you wouldn't."
"Ah," said the snake. "So I did. But you knew I was a snake when you picked me up."
This is what many social justice types and squishy Republicans voted for...some form of totalitarianism and they knew that going in.
Is that why he kept Chris Christie around?
From the book of Genesis , “Ipsa ( the Woman , Mary the new Eve ) conteret caput tuum” ie She will crush your head ( of the “antique snake”
President Trump took many snakes into his administration.
When surrounded by snakes, it may have seemed like the thing to do.
People growing up after the 1980s have no idea what Communism or Socialism stands for. It’s not taught in schools or if it is mentioned they are portrayed in positive terms by Leftist Professors. Mention the 100 million people murdered by the communists and they look at you like you have 2 heads.
I don’t kill non poisonous snakes around my house. Rattlesnakes either get shot with snakeshot or their heads get cut off with a flat shovel. Anyone that keeps snakes as pets are nothing but a frickin weirdo.
