My new book is called The Gospel of Zip.
It’s about how polite and kind my dog Zip is — and how we humans ought to imitate that behavior, no matter who we vote for, what we believe, or the color of our skin.
But that brings up another question. The question: What sort of man…?
What sort of man sticks his finger into the face of a woman who asked him a reasonable question — a question related to molesting women, attacking women, raping women — and says “Quiet, piggy”?
What sort of man destroys part of the White House — the section used by First Ladies for generations — bulldozing it to build a gaudy, gold-plated monstrosity… a poor imitation of a Saudi palace… the kind of palace built by people who helped fund and organize the 9/11 attacks on the city he used to live in?
What sort of man appoints a fascist racist like Stephen Miller and gives him free rein to build a private security army of masked agents dragging people from their work, separating parents from children, locking up a three-year-old in a van?
What sort of man destroys America’s reputation around the world — turning us from a flawed but respected keeper of the peace into a global joke?
What sort of man blocks release of the Epstein files because his name is in them more than anyone else’s? Protecting a rapist and trafficker of young women — the same kind of young women he ogled when he crashed the dressing room of a beauty pageant he organized.
What sort of man sells high-tech weapons to the instigators of 9/11 — a kingdom led by a prince who murdered and dismembered a journalist living in the U.S.?
What sort of man kills the Affordable Care Act, driving premiums and food prices sky-high while blaming past administrations?
What sort of man boosts crypto scams while doubling Americans’ healthcare costs?
What sort of man sucks up to dictators around the world to enrich himself and his tawdry family?
What sort of man hides terrible job numbers and fires people who won’t lie?
What sort of man stacks the Justice Department with lying sycophants?
What sort of man has a Vice President like JD Vance — a man groveling to Peter Thiel and Tucker Carlson and racist factions to preserve his voter base for a future presidential run?
What sort of man campaigns as “pro-life” while giving billionaires room to redefine the term — attacking women, mothers, families, and pushing a new era of dystopian genetic engineering?
What sort of man does all this?
I’ll tell you: Donald Trump.
And I dare you to defend him.
