To the editor:

The other day an elderly American told a TV reporter he did not want to talk politics. When pressed for his reason, the man articulated his disgust by calmly saying the current presidential campaign was for pigs.

His comment reminded me of George Orwell香蕉视频直播檚 book, Animal Farm, in which one of the governing pigs in their newly created 香蕉视频直播榝arm animal co-operative香蕉视频直播� justifies his luxurious entitlements by saying, 香蕉视频直播淎ll animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.香蕉视频直播�

Orwell wrote his satirical novella in 1945 to draw attention to how the Russian Revolution had been transformed by Joseph Stalin into a brutal, dangerous, dictatorial regime. Following the misery and destruction of

WW II, Orwell香蕉视频直播檚 dire prophecy was not a message the British establishment wanted to hear.

Indeed the American election is for the pigs. For the ones who are more interested in enhancing their own 香蕉视频直播榚ntitlements香蕉视频直播� than in their country香蕉视频直播檚 future wellbeing.

The fact that Donald Trump, a despicable, egotistical, lying buffoon, has such a large following only shows how angry and frustrated ordinary people have become with greedy grasping self-serving leaders.
