Pilrgrim's Progress [!]

Trumpy Existentionalism [!]

First off there is the heading as I have put it.
Then there is the lede or ship he is on.
As for the heading, I need to research it's original intent.  No pun intended or is it a natural intent?  Now for the inspiration:  a Spinoza /Coleridge connection?

(Coleridge~Romanticism~German_idealism~Existentialism)

* note: lede or ship[!]

Historical Destruction

Palmyra under siege?

Does it take a monuments men[?]*

* to be parsed or footnoted later. 

Awkward segue:  Bush v. Clinton /
Obama light or strong? 
Bush III or Clinton II or ...
Change or Bane or...
Close enough for government work?
E rack and E Ron[!]
4mat / Existentialism.***   
([?] Temporal [!])** /
Monuments? (Politics is local?, Simon says...)
[(take) Between I rock and I ran..., Temporal ? ]
Pink Floyd (Us and Them)

**The Last Word?
Up-Date ?
*** T. P. / Counter Intelligence

Translation:  Iraq was a mistake, Afghanistan was unneccessary...
It was not an intelligence failure, it was a figment of leadership and failure and element of leadership. 
It was also a preemption of intelligence of an unprecedented nature. 
It was an existential crisis, that was ignored.  
The fork not taken? 
fork: CONnecting the . . .  dots?
not: Obama With Drama, Clinton(Bill) is full of B.S.
