Notably: A friend of FlaglerLive in a comment a few days ago suggested that the following scene, from “Being There,” the Jerzy Kozinski novel and 1979 movie with the great Peter Sellers, explains how things work in the Trump White House. He called it “A secret look inside the Oval Office during the deliberations over “Liberation Day”:

I took the Washington bus; wasted some time there wandering around; went out of my way to see the Blue Ridge, heard the bird of Shenandoah and visited Stonewall Jackson’s grave; at dusk stood expectorating in the Kanawa River and walked the hillbilly night of Charleston, West Virginia; at midnight Ashland, Ken-tucky, and a lonely girl under the marquee of a closed-up show. The dark and mysterious Ohio, and Cincinnati at dawn. Then Indiana fields again, and St. Louis as ever in its great valley clouds of afternoon. The muddy cobbles and the Montana logs, the broken steamboats, the ancient signs, the grass and the ropes by the river. The endless poem. By night Missouri, Kansas fields, Kansas night-cows in the secret wides, crackerbox towns with a sea for the end of every street; dawn in Abilene. East Kansas grasses become West Kansas rangelands that climb up to the hill of the Western night.

–From Jack Kerouac’s On the Road (1957).
