DEAR EDITOR:

What were the chances that we would be given this gift? By sheer luck we have beaten all odds. Yes, President Donald Trump will certainly be ingrained in the history of America and of the world. He has shown us talents we never could have imagined and most likely will never understand.

He may be recognized as a master of American Social Realism and a practitioner of naturalism, which highlighted the struggles of every man. Protagonists against the forces of hate and injustice.

Comparable to what John Steinbeck would write in “The Grapes of Wrath,”

this president will let us experience it, to give us a better example of that life, that we couldn’t have envisioned otherwise.

Here is a 1982 song that would give an essence of this era, by Kris Kristofferson, “Here Comes that Rainbow Again.”

The scene was a small roadside cafe, The waitress was sweepin’ the floor.

Two truck drivers drinkin’ their coffee, And two Okie kids by the door.

“How much are them candies?” they asked her. “How much have you got?” she replied.

“We’ve only a penny between us.” “Them’s two for a penny,” she lied.

And the daylight grew heavy with thunder, With the smell of the rain on the wind.

Ain’t it just like a human? Here comes that rainbow again.

One truck driver called to the waitress, after the kids went outside.

“Them candies ain’t two for a penny.” “So what’s it to you?” she replied

In silence they finished their coffee, then got up and nodded goodbye.

She called, “Hey, you left too much money.” “So what’s it to you?” they replied.

And the daylight was heavy with thunder, With the smell of the rain on the wind.

Ain’t it just like a human? Here comes that rainbow again.
