Trump's NH rally last night [View all]



This morning, my brother called me, absolutely furious about Trump's rally last night in NH. My brother, who lives in Florida and voted for Trump, was incensed and started expressing how much he detested Trump. His choice of words against Trump made me think that perhaps he was finally reevaluating his support. Anyway, I decided to tune in to CSPAN to watch the video. However, after a few minutes, I found it unbearable to continue watching.

I'm 66, and my brother is 68. Growing up, we used to enjoy watching the Twilight Zone together. We still make it a tradition to watch the Twilight Zone every New Year's Eve during the 24-hour marathon. While watching the rally, something strange happened—I began shaking uncontrollably. All I could think of was the Twilight Zone episode titled "He's Alive." It left me shaken, and I'm feeling somewhat concerned for my grandchildren.

If you haven't seen it, you really should watch the Twilight Zone. The episode I mentioned captures something eerie and relevant to what's happening today.
