Jeez- Was I Wrong!

I thought, quite mistakenly, that with Trump outta the White House, America would gradually (gradually) return to some semblance of normalcy- I hesitate in using the word "sanity." But like the virus born during his regime, his insanity festers and lingers on in some communities and intensifies beyond all semblance of credulity in others.

At first there was some reason for hope, Republicans seemed to sense the public's conception of their complicity in the blatant, all out attack on our nation's Capitol building, and the police and legislators within. They oh so, very temporarily seemed to realize the inherent hypocrisy of their law and order platform as their most ardent supporters attacked, pummeled and hospitalized police as they interrupted and sought to overturn our republic's democratic process. They uhhh... also sought to kill the Speaker of the House and Vice President, after 45's rousing go get 'em speech.

That hope dissipated as Trump's undeterred loyalists hang on to every ludicrous, fallacious audacity imaginable... from a lawyer, whose very own lawyer said you'd have to be outta ya ever lovin' mind to believe anything that comes outta her mouth, to Trump's own personal lawyer (one of legions he's since distanced himself from) Rootin' Tootin' Rudy, who when asked by a federal judge if he had any of the mountain chains of "evidence" that  he declared proved the election a fraud, demurely replied, “This is not a fraud case.” Of course, at that point sanity would have demanded... then what the fuck is this shit about!?!

But it hasn't stopped there- one level of insanity begets another in Trumpland! Not satisfied with eviscerating voting rights laws, they are now actually trying to overturn repeatedly proven legal voter audits with their own extrajudicial fraudits. And with all their sensationalist claims of Democratic voter fraud- the only only proven case has been... a Republican Trump supporter! 

But these anti-democratic, pro-Fascist practices don't stop with voter suppression and manipulation. Two bit, White Nationalist, Brown Shirt Replicants are now marching throughout America in Trump's name as Q-ANON reminds us that Democrats drink babies' blood. And his cultists continue to attack Biden as senile- while conveniently ignoring their leader's own blatant dementia! Our former "Law and Auto" POTUS (see below, 5:50) could not remember "the brave man from Ohio who went to a plant..." Went to a... wha (4:12)?!? And then, relying on his trusty Con Man instincts went on to work the crowd to try and solicit the name he could not for his life remember (Neil Armstrong) like a magician asking for a volunteer from the audience! This is the man who more than once, suggested neutralizing hurricanes with a nuclear device and ingesting bleach as a Covid cure- accidental poisonings rose 121% the very next day...

 

This is the Fascist, racist, con man criminal that 40% of America would love to illegally reinstate as Supreme Leader of The Former United States... And if it doesn't happen by 8/13- there will be (more) blood... Want the game plan?
