A would-be king in exile

​Have you all seen the Odious Beast's resignation letter from SAG/AFTRA (Screen Actors Guild - membership required if you're in a movie)? I'll append it here. Beyond the reaction any thoughtful person would have to the contents, what strikes me is the logo he's put at the top and the honorific he's included at the bottom.

It makes me wonder - has he fallen so far into madness that he truly believes he is still king? We have overwhelming evidence that listening to the lies repeated endlessly by Fox, Newsmax, FB groups, Twitter, etc is what caused previously normal people to self-brainwash themselves into QAnon drones. And, of course, the source of the Big Lie that the election was "rigged" was created by the Odious Beast himself. 

But just as a snowball grows and gains momentum of its own as it careens down a snowgird slope, so perhaps has the Big Lie gathered unto itself an external reality in the eyes of the very Beast that started it. 

Tolkien wrote of the same with Gollum, didn't he? The Ring, first stolen by murder, became "a present" in Sméagol's twisted mind as he brooded upon it in the dark. 

Might this not be the case here as well? A sick and deluded husk of a creature, gibbering to himself in the fitful flickering of light within his cold and noisome golden chambers, lamenting the loss of his "present", torn from his grasp by a thief. And just as that sad and shattered fragment of a soul ventured forth to bring yet more misery upon the world in pursuit of his "precious", so might this parody of a man seek to do the same. 

There aren't any handy volcanos around Mar a Lago, are there ...?
