Why is it even close?

 We've had time for the presidential race to define itself and the final form that will be what we have for an election is now set.  It will be Kamala Harris and Tim Walz against the Idiot and his weird v.p. choice, Shady Vance.  There has been a great deal of yammering on both sides about where it will all end up.  Trump is acting weirder and weirder every day.  He's stuck in his mode of endlessly telling his audiences that the United States is a failed nation, that the rest of the world is laughing at us and, if he isn't re-elected that it will be the end of life as we know it. 

Sometimes Crazy is right there for all to see.


He gets that 'accordian' thing going with his hands--which Michael Cohen says is a sure sign that he's lying his ass off--and he takes flight over all the dark possibilities, all of it amounting to 'the end times' if we're so stupid as to refuse to let him become king...or emperor, or maybe just a good ol' dictator.  I am guessing that Hitler is the idiot's star despot, particularly because he had the special title of Fuhrer.  It just means 'Leader', but in ol' Adolf's case it meant a kind of God-king with unlimited power over his subjects.  

"Der Fuhrer befiehlt und Wir folgen."....is a German slogan that was visible as painted graffiti on the bombed out ruins of Berlin.  It means "The Leader orders and We follow."  And, even as the Russians were bearing down on Berlin and the Twilight of the Gods was drawing near..... bleagured Beliners were still willing to follow the man that brought all of the death and destruction down on their heads. The idiot has wet-dreams (okay, that's an image I don't want to entertain) from just the thought of being in that position.

A steady stream of elite professionals--the people who are not just educated as psychiatrists and psychologists, but who TEACH them at places like Harvard and Johns Hopkins--have come forward.  Initially it was only thirty-seven such individuals, and they took a raft of crap from the American Psychiatric Association for violating the 'Goldwater rule' which stipulates that it is unethical to diagnose any patient you are not seeing in your practice.  But, now over 200 such individuals are all saying that the 'duty to warn'  overrides that limitation....because there is an obvious and serious danger posed by this individual, to people and to society at large. They see so clearly that the Idiot does pose a dire threat that they cannot remain silent.

Okay, so my question is this: why is the presidential race even close? How is it possible for any person with a functioning brain to think it would be acceptable to have this moron back in the Oval Office?  By now, most people are at least aware of "Project 2025" and have some idea of the plans that the Idiot has in mind if he weasels his way back into power.  It is a nightmare, a plan to actually destroy the American democracy as we have known it for the last 248 years.  Don't take my word for it; look into it but please DO NOT make the mistake of trusting Fox or any of the propaganda bureaus of the right.  They lie all the time, perhaps inspired by the Idiot's ability to spew his steady stream of bullshit.

Is it really possible, I ask myself, that some Americans want...as in WANT...to live in a dictatorship?  Do they think that is how the country needs to be in order to save them from....the 'Brown Wave, the Queers, the Trans, the "...millions of rapists, drug dealers, criminals and mental patients" that the Idiot says are coming into the country all the time? Do some Americans really think that the Orange Idiot is leading us toward a peaceful and harmonious society?  Eeeeeegads!!!

So, for the majority of Americans, those of us who realize how dangerous the Idiot really is, the answer is very straight-forward:  Do absolutely whatever you can to convince, persuade and cajole anybody who will lend an ear...that this is America's big step-up moment, Either we make sure Kamala is elected or we face the looming darkness that Donald John Trump is determined to inflict on the world.  

He's fucking insane, folks.  Hear me now and believe me later.
