Dumpty Trumpty denied a great fall… Humpty Trumpty built a great wall… All the horse’s asses and all real Americans stormtroopin’ the halls, wave the whole thing off as tourists cruising the malls…

‘When I use a word,’ Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, ‘it means just what I choose it to mean–neither more nor less.’

‘The question is,’ said Alice, ‘whether you can make words mean different things–that’s all.’

‘The question is,’ said Humpty Dumpty, ‘which is to be master–that’s all’

“Audit the ballots and audit the machines,” they say. “Audit them all!” But the fraudits are really no audits at all.
