We could talk about using "bloodbath" to describe a future USA.

Empire of the Vampire by Jay Kristoff

It is a enjoyable Sword & Sorcery Fantasy book that is set in the world vampires. The author does a great job mixing the 2 genres.

Thanks,
They sound like the Tubes & the J. Geils Band in the 1970's - you had to see them live.

@Bobk37
I really don't know them. I will be digging into their albums.

Gee, Mika… you REALLY can’t understand how people get drawn into Mango Mussolini’s appeal? Do you imagine that we’ve forgotten (or forgiven) how you gazed adoringly at him, giving him a daily platform on MSNBC, even fixing his hair for him?? If it can happen to somebody as worldly and educated as you, yeah… it can happen to anyone. Stop acting so shocked that the monster that you nurtured is burning the country to the ground.

Is anyone watching "The Regime" on HBO?
The country's leader is a less evil mix of Trump and Viktor Orban. Good satire.

Sorry, I am just going off Jay In Kyiv. I have following him for 2 years and found him trustworthy.

Trey loves The Eagles and they are 35% "New Kid In Town" soft rock.

Trey lends me his soft rock records.
