ALLEGORY: The Kingdom of Glass and Gold: An Allegory of Virtue and Vigor.



In a realm born from the desire for freedom, the children of a mighty empire traveled from across the sea to create a beacon of opportunity and prosperity. This land, named Beauty, would become America—a vibrant tapestry woven from the dreams of those who believed in the virtues of faith, hard work, integrity, and family.


For centuries, Beauty thrived under various leaders. Her liberty and prosperity became the envy of the world. Yet, as time passed, her people began to forget the principles upon which their land was founded. The essence of Beauty became marred by complacency and division, paving the way for rulers who strayed from the path of virtue.


Amongst this backdrop emerged a prince, bold and unorthodox, known as the Trumpian Beast. His rise to power was marked by battles against formidable foes, including a powerful queen set on claiming the throne. Despite his brash methods and fiery proclamations known as "Tweets," his reign brought renewed vigor to Beauty's economy and spirit.


However, his tenure was not without turbulence. The Beast's unconventional style and prideful manner sowed division, drawing criticism and plotting from various corners of the kingdom. When a mysterious plague swept through the land, his adversaries seized the moment to undermine him, casting blame for all misfortunes upon his shoulders.


The enchanted rose—a symbol of the kingdom's health and the Beast's legitimacy—began to shed its petals, and the confidence of the people waned. When the time came to reaffirm his rule, the rose became barren, with one petal remaining, and as a result, the Beast was ultimately dethroned amidst claims of deceit and manipulation.


In the ensuing chaos, a new king, Joseph the Elder, took the throne. His reign was marked by unkept promises and decisions that further fractured the unity of Beauty. The kingdom faced unprecedented challenges—social upheavals, economic downturns, threats of war, racial and cultural divisions, and a society that saw its norms and traditions turned completely upside down. Amidst this, lay a dormant rose, its petals scattered and withered.


Joseph the Elder, worried that the people of Beauty would renounce him, summoned his court and ordered an "all-out attack" against the Beast, accusing him of crimes manufactured by its elite security forces, while manipulating its justice system to bankrupt and jail him for life. The attacks were relentless, and if that were not enough, the evil forces of Queen Hillary and her cohort, and Beauty-hater, George Soros were called in to finish the job.


Yet, during his darkest hour, instead of being weakened by all these attacks, they only made him stronger, which only served to awaken the Trumpian Beast and bring back the roar that resounded across the land. However, this time the Beast was driven not by arrogance and glory but by a genuine love for Beauty and her people.


With renewed strength and purpose, the Beast emerged from exile and defied his accusers, refusing to bow down to the corrupt powers waged against him and his beloved country. As the Beast walked among his people, sharing in their trials and listening to their hopes, a transformation occurred not only within him but also within the hearts of those who had once recoiled at his rule.


His return sparked a renewed sense of possibility, a belief that perhaps the kingdom could once again embrace the virtues upon which it was founded. From that point on, the heart of the Beast was changed, and he no longer saw himself as a king but as someone who would serve the Beauty of the people by mending the kingdom's fractures and restoring it to the splendor it once held.


Amidst preparations for a grand electoral ball, the kingdom stands at a crossroads. Will the forces of evil persist, or will the mutual love of the people of Beauty and the Beast of Trump prevail? There is now a glow from the rose's last petal, flickering with life again, a sign that the curse of division might yet be broken by the bonds of genuine love and mutual respect between Beauty and the Beast.
