Grandpa Lenin Is Back

Things are accelerating, my friends. The Harris campaign is now receiving slightly Americanized versions of the letters to Grandpa Lenin we read by the bucketful in my Soviet childhood. Whoever is familiar with the Grandpa Lenin genre will recognize the weepy tone, the grandiose claims and the subservient verbiage:

Ms. Harris, you are a light in the darkness for girls like me who dare to dream of a better future. I believe in you with all my heart. . . Ms. Harris, you are our last hope. You’re fighting not just for yourself but for all of us who see America as our home, our chance, our only hope for a better life. Please keep going. Keep inspiring us. Keep showing us that dreams can come true, no matter where we come from or what challenges we face.

Before you laugh, I need to let you know that Harris supporters are sharing this in all seriousness and without a shade of mockery.

I most sincerely hope that no actual 11-year-old girl was involved in the creation of this document in any capacity because a child doesn’t deserve this, no matter how peculiar her parents are.
