And it came to pass as the multitude had begun the long arduous climb out of the

abyss into which they had been cast after bowing before the Golden Escalator that some looked ahead and fell to their knees wailing loudly.

"OH EM GEE!" they cried after which some tore their garments and pulled their hairs out while others sat and stared numbly back into the void. And, when those behind them asked "WASSUP?", one who had seen the path ahead spake thusly: "The MAGA MINIONS who cast us into the Pit of Ignorance now reside in and rule over our House! The very same wild-eyed demons who demanded we abandon reason now sit smirking as they sharpen their scythes and prepare to cut down any who dare defy---HIM!"

But then, from the midst of those still climbing, came the quiet but clear words of one called by the name of "Joe": "Despair ye not! Even as I have promised----'I've got this!' "

And, the sighs of relief caused a great wind which swept out of the abyss and so bewildered the MINIONS that they cried "DUBYA TEE EFF?"and fled in all directions as HE tried in vain to persuade them to carry him once again.

And, those who climbed out stood again beneath the clear sky of reason and promised to to gather again two years hence to fill in the Pit of Ignorance and drive any remaining MINIONS into the desert of Cold Hard Truth.

And Joe pronounced it "Good!"
