Greek Drama


Increasingly, Hellary Clinton's fall from grace is appearing to be a modern Greek tragedy. She and her band of desperadoes are grasping for straws in their frantic attempt to save themselves from drowning under the Trump wave election. Their three state vote recounts have failed in humiliating fashion, the news of the Russians overtly helping Trump to get elected increasingly rings "fake," and now there is their fatuous appeal to Trump electors to abandon honor and vote for Hellary.

What makes this passion play even more full of pathos is that her band of outlaws also included many media luminaries. Or, should I say, many former media luminaries? Those that too enthusiastically sought the embrace of this spider woman may never recover from these humiliating sell-outs of their journalistic ethics. It's as though one is hearing the Greek chorus moaning and groaning over the ending of progressive euphoria.
