The King was an instinctive genius, and this is coming from someone who doesn't care for Keep It Simple Stupid.
Elvis would have been MAGA as an octogenerian, hell Trump might have partnered with Big E once Parker ate sh!t and died in 1997.
Years ago, we were looking for a place to get married and we looked at the Storz mansion in Omaha. The Storz son still lived there and was very eccentric. He showed us hand carved oak pillars that had grapes and grape leaves. His parents took the family on an around the world trip & the maintenance man had painted all the pillars as well as hand painted frescoes on the walls. They commissioned an Italian artist to come to the US to paint them. When we took our tour, the son was stripping the oak pillars to get back to wood.
I only learned about the twin brother from touring Graceland—there is a family cemetery on the property and the brother is buried there. I heard that Elvis’ lifespan was two days longer than his mother’s. He was 42 when he died (1935-1977).
