(44,577 posts)The task of making outlandish shit up has becoming impossible in light of the real world outlandish shit already happening.

(6,194 posts)BUT in this case, rebuild the layers of our democracy that Trump and his grifters have peeled away. Back one by one until we are the USA that President Obama's left at the end of his 8 years in office.

(16,646 posts)But quite honestly, the opening for the Onion these days is in satire where Trump does something "reasonable". There's alot of territory there.

(17,340 posts)The Florida in my novels is not as seedy as the real Florida. It's hard to stay ahead of the curve. Every time I write a scene that I think is the sickest thing I have ever dreamed up, it is surpassed by something that happens in real life.
