The wall. Draining the swamp. Busloads of illegal voters. Twitterverse. Corporate profits. Conflicts of interest. Uncovering the 1040 form.

Gold Dust, the faithful commentator, wearing a pussy hat. Facts matter.
This is the tenth artwork in my “Dog Envy” political series. After the 2004 presidential election, I looked at my greyhound Gold Dust, lying on the floor in the sun, and was envious of his obliviousness. That moment initiated a long series of politically-inspired quilts. Gold Dust became my ‘everyman’, the average citizen, a common patriot.
