Madison Avenue looked this night very much like the first week of June.
The shops are boarding up again.
It made feel slightly melancholic almost nostalgic. Elections? Boarding up.
But I remain moderately optimistic that they are boarding up for nothing.
The gleeful announcements that the US has become a kind of Lebanon (I’ve never heard that shops in Beirut boarded up before elections but alas, they had a fierce civil war and not that long ago) will prove untrue. At least that’s my bet and my hope.
