The United States is going through such a strange period in its history that it may be difficult for future generations to understand how truly bizarre things are right now. To that end, I wonder whether it might be useful to describe our current situation in a way that would be comprehensive to small children.

Trumpty Dumpty said he’d build a wall,
Then Trumpy Dumpty caused our country to fall.
And all of our women, and all of our men
Could not put our country together again.
