John Prine: "That's How Every Empire Falls"



 



A bitter wind blows through the country 
A hard rain falls on the sea 
If terror comes without a warning 
There must be something we don't see 
What fire begets this fire? 
Like torches thrown into the straw 
If no one asks, then no one answers 
That's how every empire falls

The American dream, and its 2 century plus years of freedom and liberty is slowly coming to a close. Under the authoritarian fever of the FOTUS and his supporting cast MAGA sheeple.

That's the way that the world goes round!

As we await the impending collapse of the FOTUS's moronic agenda.
