How to Die on a Desert Island. A Parable about DOnald Trump

Once upon a time, there was an airliner that crashed on a deserted island in the Pacific. Everyone survived except the flight crew. There were a couple of coconut palm trees on the island but otherwise no food.

The survivors were all American Democrats except one person named Donald Trump. As it turns out, Donald was a licensed pilot with some mechanical experience on planes. He set about checking the plane out and determined it was flyable. 

Donald announced the good news to the survivors. He told them he knew how to fly the plane and should be able to make them all free again. One survivor stood up and said, “I know who you are. I’ve heard some terrible things about you. I’ve been told you have been a very nefarious person in your life.”

Others began to verbally agree and said they did not want to be associated with such a bad person. Donald tried to reason with them, “I’ve not been perfect in my life and I have actually changed my ways recently. Be that as it may, I still have the ability to save us all. I really think I can do this.”

The people dispersed and talked among themselves. The next morning, Donald approached the people and told them they can think what they want about him, but as far as getting off the island, what did they have to lose? The people became very angry and told Donald they agreed unanimously that they would not get on the plane and risk being seen associating with Donald Trump when they got home. 

So they all died of starvation. Oh, except for Donald. He got on the plane and flew home and lived happily ever after. Fortunately, no one on the island was ever associated in any way with Donald Trump. They were also never found.

The moral of the story: If someone creates the strongest economy the nation has ever seen as he promised, stop complaining about the color of his skin.
