Georgia on My Mind
A reminder of the consequences of disrespect. The song sure to be played at the start of at least one Trump '24 election rally by a sly DJ. With apologies to the great Ray Charles.
Trump had figured Georgia as an easy mark, dim southerners he could bully for his own sad ends. He was wrong, and as he slumped onto the stage for yet another festival of untruth, the music began, and could not have held more truth. "Just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind". Georgia would be forever known as his own Waterloo.
Georgia on my Mind
After being "liberated" by its governor, Georgia reported nearly 1,000 new Covid-19 cases in the past 24 hours.
Thinking not of its reopened tattoo parlors, bowling alleys and nail salons, but of all those who would inevitably sicken and suffer, kept Georgia on my mind this morning.
