Washington D.C.
Cheshire Cat Spotted at White House.
Secret Service quickly pounced on the smiling apparition, but it seemed to weave around and out of their grasp. It followed a weary President Trump out of the room, gradually disappearing, according to witnesses, into the sunlight of a hallway window, leaving behind a lingering smile, some thought seemed more like a smirk, until that too faded in the light.
TALKING HEADS on the evening news suggested the apparition materialized at the press conference in response to Trump’s Gazan policy proposal of sending Palestinians living in the enclave somewhere other than their homeland. The Cheshire Cat grinned, a Trump advisor proposed, because the new U.S. administration seems bound and determined to give the Israeli state everything it wants. And more. With the cat’s smile—or sneer—symbolizing that fact.
Time will tell if, in a few months, another apparition, the Ghost of Christmas Future, will
visit the U.S. president, laying before him all the paths he could have taken
and didn’t....
Cheers, Jake.
