The Wizard of Oz
Someone posted a Thread about family and friends who believe in Trump and asked if we knew anyone.
It got me thinking about some in my husband's family who are Trumpkins.
I thought about how so many Trumpkins believe the economy magically grew and got so much better with low unemployment the minute Trump took office.
How they believe the lies and bragging.
They cannot see it's all illusion. Trump is a master of illusion and his followers believe the in the magical hocus pocus.
Just like the people of Oz believed in the great powers of the Wizard.
In reality the Great and Powerful Oz was a failed traveling Flim Flam man who sold junk. Got caught in Oz and the people thought him wise and magical and powerful.
And the con went on until Dorothy and her friends unmasked him.
The Wizard of Oz was able to control the people with a great moon face, loud booming voice, impossible demands and scare tactics.
And it was all an illusion.
So, Donnie is like the Wizard of Oz to his followers who believe his illusions.
