I know I will, maybe after Fiji
Americans are hurting, so we rage in $1,000 restaurants, glittering parties and foot salons
What a difference a year makes. I'll be at a dinner now and, like clockwork, the president will come up. Someone will say, "Can you believe this is happening? He's snatching people off the streets! He's calling for judges to be impeached and here we're all just looking on with our mouths open! Why aren't we doing anything?"
Everyone will nod.
"If someone told me, 'There's a march on this specific day and at this specific time, I'd be there." Someone else, sometimes me, will say. "If they suggested we storm the Capitol, smashing windows and defecating on people's desks, you better believe I'd do it, even though it would be hard, shitting on command like that, and in front of people."
Everyone agrees 100%. But where is that person who'll unify us and spur us on? They don't have to be a politician - it's probably better if they're not. They just have to be a leader, to have both courage and charisma. To be an electrifying speaker, but also someone who rolls their sleeves up and really gets into it. You don't realise how rare that sort of a person is until you need one.
