How You Can Help Defeat the Donald?

“Mort, the presidential election is 259 days away and I’m getting a bissel nervous because Mr.-$399-Gold-Sneakers may win.”

“Moshe, me too. I’d love to take a leak in one of those gold sneakers. It would feel so good.”

“Well, mister smart guy, what can we do to assure that that insurrectionist, killer of women’s rights, rapist clown doesn’t get re-elected?”

“Since, Mr.-I-Don’t-Give-A-Shit-About-Israel-In-Its-Greatest-Time-Of-Need is ordering Republican members of Congress not to vote for aid to Israel, I’ve been doing a lot more thinking about that crooked schmuck. And I came up with a solution, that I’ve called: Join The Anti-Trump Election Countdown Social Media Bombardment Army.”

“That’s a mouthful but it’s catchy. How do I enlist?”

“Well, to join the Bombardment Army you need the following tools or as I like to call them, Weapons of Trump’s Demise (WTD). Now please write this down.”

Moshe removed a Sharpie Fine Point from his shirt’s pocket and a piece of white paper from his brown wallet. “I’m ready, when you are. Shoot away.”

“Get a pen or pencil, a 2024 desk calendar and sit next to your computer. A desktop, laptop or iPhone will do. Now every day, from now to election day, you commit to giving 15 minutes a day to posting, sharing or writing anti-Trump stuff all over the internet. You clock in as if you’re on the job. After your 15 minutes is up, you pat yourself on the back for doing your best to fight for freedom, democracy, decency, truth, NATO, Ukraine, Israel and world peace.”

“You mean that all I have to do is to go on Facebook, X, Twitter, Threads and Instagram and post away like a madman about a madman and I’ve done my part to keep Donnie out of the White House?”

“Exactly.”

“Mort, time is flying by. Before you know it it will be November. I’ll clock in and start sharing, writing and posting tonight. I’ll tell my Facebook friends and the groups I belong to, to join the call. Thousands of people will read my posts. Hopefully,  I’ll get some thumbs up and a lot of shares. Mort, I’ll get a bunch of my friends to join your army. We’ll flood the net, create an electronic deluge and remind everybody how important it is to vote on November 5th. We’ll put 354 million nails in that fraudster’s political coffin.”
