Americans are holed up in the homes, eating piles of candy, and wearing masks, as an orange pumpkin-headed monster terrifies them. But then, they&#8217;ve been doing that for months now. This <em>All Hallows Eve<\/em> features a full blue moon, an approaching asteroid, and an invisible enemy. The only thing more frightening is the enemy we can actually see who has been haunting that big old house on Transylvania &#8211; I mean Pennsylvania Avenue.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/Pix\/Trump\/trump-fox-halloween.jpg\" alt=\"Donald Trump, Fox News, Halloween\" width=\"550\" height=\"296\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-43144\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Donald Trump has turned much of the nation into the <em>Land of the Living Dead<\/em>. Unfortunately, far too many have become the literally dead. And while the scourge of the coronavirus is hitting new peaks, Trump is gathering his hordes of glassy-eyed disciples together into <em>COVID-Paloozas<\/em> that serve as <em>Super Spreaders<\/em> for the viral threat which, contrary to Trump&#8217;s manic raving, is not <em>&#8220;rounding the turn.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>As Election Day draws nearer, Trump is escalating the sense of horror that is the hallmark of his <em>&#8220;American Carnage&#8221;<\/em> presidency. He laughs at our suffering and mocks our efforts to remain safe and healthy. And he is determined to instill ever more shivers of terror, especially with regard to what he fears most himself &#8211; Losing the election to <em>&#8220;Sleepy Joe Biden,&#8221;<\/em> a beast so ghastly it has Trump muttering chilling fables of the dire dystopia that awaits us all if the sleepy, yet somehow fiercely aggressive, Biden should prevail. On the day before Halloween Trump broke out his most horrific stories about the foreboding foe that is tormenting him, including spine tinglers like this:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Joe Biden is a corrupt politician who has done nothing but betray you for 47 long years &#8211; selling out to lobbyists, China, big pharma &amp; foreign countries. He will stab you in the back. He only cares about political power &amp; he will use that power to hurt you &amp; enrich his cronies! <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/8B9kZ5sdEJ\">pic.twitter.com\/8B9kZ5sdEJ<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Donald J.

STOP THE MADNESS! And if that isn&#8217;t scary enough for you, Trumps warns that Biden <em>&#8220;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realdonaldtrump\/status\/1322333348333674496\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">has pledged a staggering<\/a><\/strong> 700% increase in refugees from the most dangerous and violent terrorist hot spots on earth.&#8221;<\/em> He wants to <em>&#8220;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realdonaldtrump\/status\/1322333352205021184\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">open the floodgates<\/a><\/strong> to terrorists, jihadists, and violent extremists.&#8221;<\/em> He will <em>&#8220;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realdonaldtrump\/status\/1322297825334497280\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">make you a prisoner<\/a><\/strong> in your own home, and a prisoner in your own Country. Biden\u2019s plan will kill the American Dream.&#8221;<\/em> And <em>&#8220;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realdonaldtrump\/status\/1322293755328618497\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">If Biden wins<\/a><\/strong>, the rioters in the streets will be running your federal government. No city, no family, and no community will be safe.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>HOLY CRAP! Is there any hope left for us? Or more importantly, for the <em>Trump Thing<\/em>. He&#8217;s mortified that <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=47277\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">the media is covering <em>&#8220;COVID, COVID, COVID&#8221;<\/em><\/a><\/strong> more than his tedious and baseless allegations against Hunter Biden. Someone should tell him that, unlike his himself and his callous negligence and incompetence, Hunter hasn&#8217;t killed 280,000 Americans. But that still wouldn&#8217;t stop Trump from <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=47306\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">whining about Twitter allegedly censoring<\/a><\/strong> his dishonest tweets on the subject.<\/p>\n<p>But there is hope. In a few days we can join together to free America from the nightmare it&#8217;s been enduring for four long years. And we do that by taking the simple step of voting our hearts out. We are the <em>October Surprise<\/em> that will stifle Trump&#8217;s lies. And if we rise up, we can safely surmise that the American majority who despise Trump will not disguise their feelings but reprise the <em>Blue Wave<\/em> that washed out Republicans in 2018 and will do so likewise in 2020.
