the antitrump
project
 
first
draft
         

 

  17 Novemebr 2016


Yesterday I was thinking, Trump (who is now the most famous person in the world, and likely will be the most famous person of the 21st century for some while) is a terrible example to all our children (it pays to be mean, be visious, be selfish!). I want to be the antitrump. To set an example that being nice is alright. Being nice is better! So, I hope to become as famous as Trump, but as an exemplar of the unTrump, "the antitrump".
     It's a serious business. But (the second friend I enthusiastically mentioned it to, this morning, waxed irate: "How can you be so negative!" It's not negative. It is an example of a complex human being that you can hold up in contrast to Trump. Now we have to make me as famous and "successful" as the presumptive antichrist) I owe it to our brethren and our children to try to set a better example. Let's do it!
 
         
   
I want to be the antitrump

and you can be too
   
         
  Why me? That's a long story. I'm going to start by referring you to my "memoir": Norman Allan: the story, for Ezra (and possibly particularly Book Three: Towards Joy, Chapter One: ... a Snit with Ezra ... )  
         
   

 

I want to be the antitrump

make me the antitrump

 

2 caveats

~ Trump is an antichrist, but has not yet demonstrated that he is the antichrist

~ and, if I were the antitrump I would be more humble: so I will be happy to simply a (hopefully exemplary, and famous) antitrump

 

and, N.B., Trump has not shown himself, yet, to be totally Hitlerian : he is shaping up more Napoleonicly.

I want to be the antitrump

contrast to trump : antitrumpic attributes

~ Fefferman said to me recently, You don't have, you haven't got a commercial bone in your body.

~ when I eff up, I am awefully apologetic
     and (healthily for the most part and hopefully ultimately correlatively)
      remorseful

 

similarities and differences to trump

~ I have a very large ego and a paired lack of confidence
however, I express my doubts
and thoughts round limitations (this is unpopular! tres (yes this is "negative" and in a very literal sense so, but it is also : thinks xxxyou cannot know, and can know vvvvv

~ I am more annoyed discussed and afraid of bull shit than almost anything

~ I try never to lie
or to tell untruths (and think this is important)

   
         
   
make me the antitrump
and I'll fix it
only I can fix it
and you can too

I want to be more famous than Trump
I owe it to our children and our brethren
to set an example that tops trump

(who happens to be a genius*)
can make of his life!
the antitrump
I am become** the antitrump

and you can be too**
