A few years back, I picked up an issue of National Geographic and stumbled upon the creepy true story of parasite wasps. And Republican Representative Jason Chaffetz threatened the Director of the United States Office of Government Ethics for questioning Trump's conflicts of interest. In nature, the wasps' victims die after acting against their own survival and being bled dry by their masters. The similarities between the tale of the parasite wasp and our own predicament do not end there. It's as if the parasite wasp is acting both on its behalf and in the service of the virus it unknowingly hosts.
