I’m retired and on a ‘fixed income’ and I can’t BELIEVE I was able to weather this storm and am still standing!

Every DAY for MONTHS NOW, I was told that since I had to put ALL of my money in my GAS TANK that I was going to STARVE to death and default on my mortgage. (I don’t have a mortgage and could easily go three months without a trip to the grocery store.) I would be living under a bridge...IF I were one of the Lucky Ones!

My pets were going to need to learn to forage at the dump and hunt small game for themselves; no more grocery-store high-end refrigerated dog and cat food for them - because *I* was going to have to be eating that, MYSELF!

My hair was going to fall out! I was going to go BLIND! My dentures would no longer fit! My toenails would begin to grow at a very rapid rate! Some REPUBLICAN in a SUIT was going to push me off a CLIFF in my Hover-Round!

I couldn’t afford to buy a tank of oxygen and I was going to SUFFOCATE on my own front porch!

The, ‘High Speed Rail Trains to Nowhere’ in all major cities would no longer be running. No busses, no taxicabs! Truckers would be going on strike and forming convoys! NASCAR would cancel all races, indefinitely! The ports would close and we couldn’t get our Dollar Tree cr@p from China!

I can’t believe I managed to survive all of this! This was WORSE than ‘The Great Depression’ that my Grandparents made it through! We were in worse shape these past few months than we were when we had to use Ration Cards in WWII! I even put in a ‘Victory Garden’ this spring because we were all. gonna. die!

And it was all President Trumps Fault...until it wasn’t.
