The news continues to have stories about how the Idiot is going to have his sycophants in congress overturn the election results. Of course, each of these stories holds that this is a fool's errand and that there is only the very slightest chance that anything like that could actually work. That doesn't bother Donny-boy; he's so out of it at this point that it's reasonable to question whether or not he actually understands how far out in la-la land all of this is. I don't believe he does, in fact.
There are crises happening all over the place. Just when we feel able to take some solace and have some hope because not one, but two vaccines have been approved and are being distributed as I write, and congress has finally approved a stimulus package after nine months of dragging their heels....we find out that the Brits have a new strain of the Covid-19 virus that is much, i.e. 70%, more transmissible between people. Oh, joy! Now we can bite our collective nails until we find out if the existing vaccines are as effective on this new strain.
Then there is the fact that this pandemic is right out of control. Hospitals in parts of the country are right at the point where they will be forced to ration care for sick patients. They are struggling to keep enough staff uninfected and working, to have room in their ICUs, and to simply cope with the avalanche of newly infected patients arriving on their doorsteps. It's a living nightmare in more and more parts of the country.
In addition to this rather daunting fact, the lines at food distribution sites are literally MILES long. The aerial video of cars snaking up and down large parking lots and on out into the streets are stunning. More Americans are now food insecure than at any time in modern history. I haven't any ability to know how dire it was in the 30s during the Great Depression, but, it is bad now and getting worse as the second surge, some would say THIRD, is happening. People are being begged by doctors and pundits to avoid travel for Christmas and write this year off....in hopes of a better situation and more people surviving to be there next year.
As if all of this isn't dire enough, the economy is acting schizophrenic. Some people are making a killing as the stock markets continues to defy any connection to what is actually happening on the ground, and others.....LOTS of others....are either about to get evicted or going into serious indebtedness to pay for essentials without a job. Numerous economists are not optimistic about where the economy is headed as we muck on through this nightmarish time.
And, the Idiot cannot be bothered to deal with any of it. No, he is just plain checked-out at this point. He's way too busy trying to steal a job that he apparently has little desire to do. He is demonstrating for the umpteenth time that he just wants to be the Big Kahuna....never mind any responsibility or duties that might entail. The simple truth is ol' Donny-boy doesn't care about any living person besides himself. This is so amazingly clear at this point that it makes me wonder why his Kool-Aids don't seem to see it. More likely is the idea that they DO but that they have it all explained away for then by the lesser idiots on Fox...or, these days, NewsMax, or OAN.

Articles are popping up left and right conjecturing as to whether or not the Idiot has lost it. Is he nutso? Oh, fuck yes!!! But, the issue is: how far around the bend is he now, and what can be done to make it less dangerous for us and the entire planet?
Well, one measure that seems to already be in place is the military brass speaking up and reminding us that they will not be available to storm into major American cities and confiscate voting machines...and then stage new elections, subject to a result that is pleasing to His Royal Asshole. Several high-ranking general officers have made this clear....no U.S. military will carry out his fascist agenda.
On a practical level, it's unthinkable that the targeted states would accept this assault on democracy, and neither would the rest of us. This is marching in the streets time if he thinks he can do this.
This brings us to the idea he is preparing to enact: have members of congress lodge a complaint on Jan. 6th, when the legislative branch of our government is due to give their final stamp of approval for the election. Then, somehow, not sure how, but one way or another a miracle will happen and congress will declare that Donny is the winner of an election that he lost by SEVEN MILLION votes. The Idiot is too intellectually challenged to understand that the election has been decided and is a done deal. The purpose of the process on Jan. 6th is more of a final rubber stamp. But, rest assured, the Idiot is not going to accept that. It is just more of him acting like a spoiled little brat because he didn't get his way. After four years of abusing his office, abusing the American people, and anybody else he decided not to like....he finally persuaded over EIGHTY MILLION of us to make any effort necessary to vote his sorry ass OUT. And......it worked. We did. Did he really think anybody outside the circle of fools who drank his Kool-Aid liked him?
Donald John Trump is a loser. In fact, he's making his place in the history of American politics look even worse than it would be otherwise. Had he the necessary class and decency, he could have just said, "Hey, I gave it my best shot. But, the people have spoken." Nah, way too difficult for his pathetic sense of entitlement.
The truth here is not an 'alternative fact'. It is just a plain and simple TRUTH. He can come around to that realization one way or another but, a fact is a fact and it's not going to change because it's not to his liking. Of course, poor Donny, the professional and pathetic victim as always, will just have to do it his own way. Sadly, he's the only one who could change it and come out of this looking halfway decent....but, you and I both know that he'll do it the worst possible way.
It's just who he is, eh.
Somewhere there is a village that is wondering where the hell their idiot went.
