I'm but an instance of infinity.
And Lo, he became their king, for his hands had the stigmata signs of rotting wounds. He made Lord Bessent Chief of the Exchequer, Count Miller Chancellor of Cruelty, Lady Bondi Head of the Inquisition, Sir Hegspeth captain of the Royal Guard, and village idiot RFK the Younger, Chief Bloodletter.

The Trump Beatitudes

Losers are the poor, for you get nothing
Losers are those who weep; get over it
Losers are the meek; we'll take advantage of you
Losers are the merciful; what's the point?
Losers are the pure of heart, for you refuse to con
Losers are the peacemakers; only with chaos do you win
