The new Bizzaro World of US politics

I grew up with Superman comics and looked forward to each new issue.  I do have to confess to not particularly enjoying the ones that dealt with "Bizarro World".   This was a construct of the writers designed to be the opposite of earth.  Even the world itself was known as Htrae or earth spelled backwards.  All the characters in Superman had their Bizzaro world dopplegangers who acted in exactly opposite ways from the normal Jimmy Olsens, Perry Whites, etc.  This is how it seems our political institutions and political actors have become in the past 6 months.   Instead of a young, intelligent black man as president, we have a demented old white man.  Instead of Congress passing laws to increase the number of people covered by health insurance, we have a collection of ideologues working to deny as many people insurance as possible.  Black is white, up is down, etc.  The crowning moment of Zen came as people on both sides of the aisle sympathized with John McCain in the wake of his cancer diagnosis.  Despite calls for an unlikely recovery by many, the far or "alt" right was calling for a speedy demise and McCain's entry into hell.  We are further down the rabbit hole to Wonderland than even I thought.
