Short story – “Shower Him With Rage”

“Shower Him With Rage”

President Armijo announced today that they will not partake in the nearly ninety-year-old tradition of Presidents urinating on the grave of Donald Trump.  The tradition began in 2037 when President Hodge performed the act as a “complete and utter refutation of Trump’s policies and ideas.” Despite being elected as President, Trump tried to rule as a dictator.  Since President Hodge, all Presidents within a few days of being inaugurated have urinated on Trump’s grave as a statement that dictators do not belong in the United States.

President Armijo stated that while despising Trump, they worried “focusing on this bogeyman who died when my grandparents were kids, takes time away from defeating the current bogeypeople, some of whom wish to resurrect some of Trump’s failed ideologies.” They added, “Besides, why should the public be reminded of this man every few years when what he truly deserves is to fade into obscurity and be forgotten.”
