The barking, sniping, and pouting that ravages our leaders is surely worthy of dog park humor.

I was staggered when reports suggested that Paul Manafort, a convicted felon, was released six years early because of fears for his health in a prison where no virus was detected.

Clarity flowed when it became evident that he was the Trump crony who orchestrated and is required to orchestrate the re-election of the current individual.

It beggared understanding when others in infected prisons, on lesser charges, are retained at the detriment to their families. Even children are thrust back to schools where they are enclosed in transmittable proximity, but not Paul.

Clarity flowed when it became evident the children would never be able to vote in the next election… the short game of backtracking, backbiting and backstabbing could resume.

I understand the politics of a dogfight.

It became obvious, if each of the prominent Corvid leaders, who are consumed by their own hyperbole, were to be rounded up into a dog park it would become immediately obvious who was who. I ventured to a nearby dog park.
