WEEK 058 / 073 — The Crown of Cleveland
第六章The General
CHAPTER 6 — THE GENERAL. JULY 19, 2016. CLEVELAND. THE ROLL IS CALLED, AND THE CROWN DESCENDS UPON THE MAN SIXTEEN RIVALS ONCE LAUGHED AT.
“Such a great honor to be the Republican Nominee for President of the United States. I will work hard and never let you down! AMERICA FIRST!”
The media is spending more time doing a forensic analysis of Melania's speech than the FBI spent on Hillary's emails.
(Wow, Ted Cruz got booed off the stage, didn't honor the pledge! I saw his speech two hours early but let him speak anyway. No big deal!)
JULY 22. PAST MIDNIGHT. THE SPEECH IS GIVEN, THE ARENA EMPTIES, AND ALONE IN THE DARK HE SETS HIS SEAL UPON THE CROWN.
(FORMAL ACCEPTANCE OF THE NOMINATION! #TrumpPence16)
“Leaked e-mails of DNC show plans to destroy Bernie Sanders. Mock his heritage and much more. On-line from Wikileakes, really vicious. RIGGED”
JULY 23. THE ENEMY KINGDOM'S OWN LETTERS SPILL INTO THE LIGHT. IN TWO DAYS HIRARĪ TAKES HER STAGE IN PHILADELPHIA — THE FINAL WAR BEGINS.

This week in the saga
Cleveland delivers its verdict: the roll is called, DONARUDO stands crowned as nominee, and past midnight he sets his seal upon the crown with a vow of AMERICA FIRST. The ceremony is not clean — Teddo is booed from the stage unbowed, and the press chorus dissects Melania's speech until DONARUDO draws the coldest line of the summer. Then leaked letters crack open the enemy kingdom itself: its own hands conspired against the wild sage, and from the wreckage rises one word — RIGGED.
