It’s still all about him…

Well…with taking the day off of working around here, I find I have time on my hands so I thought I’d come here for another one early with all of the economic stuff happening right now….now, you’d think with the world on the brink of a global meltdown that the idiot trump would have an “all hands on deck” moment as Obama did during the 2008 crash and would be leading a team to formulate a response…but, you’d be wrong…with crazy assed tweets this morning, idiot boy is still making it all about him…that the virus and the concern that people all over the world have about it’s effect is just a “liberal” attack on his greatness and to defeat him in the fall election…and it’s all one big conspiracy with business, stock traders, economists, and everyone else in the world in on it since they just can’t stand his greatness and are jealous of his accomplishments. Yeah, that’s a whole new level of crazy and it’s going to get worse since the idiot can’t take anyone trying to get him to read information and act on it…and that is what’s necessary to avoid a crisis…and his virus “czar”, Mike Pence has nothing on his calendar today that has anything to do with the virus response that is needed…just political bullshit at CPAC…oh, hey guys…and I mean you idiots in the WH…the dow is down another 900 points in the first hour of trading this morning as the bad economic piles up from across the world….I wonder if a tweet from idiot boy can fix that? Okay, I was wrong…in the minute it took me to post this the dow dropped another 200 points so now it’s down by almost 1100 points….tick tock, trump….

According to trump, he should resign…

Well….have been busy today and just got caught up on the news on my twitter feed and all I can say is yow! Another 1100 point drop for the Dow today bringing the week’s bloodbath to over 3000 points…something that has never been seen in the history of the country…I guess the traders and businesses are showing that they know that trump and his cronies are in no way qualified to handle the coronavirus and it is going to get much, much worse before it gets better…that puts the stock market in official correction territory by losing 10% of it’s value…and that has happened not over months but over the past 4 days…and we still have another day this week…I don’t know if idiot boy’s memory is gone but just a few years ago he spouted off at Obama, saying that “if the dow drops 1,000 points in two days the president should immediately be impeached”….and I think there is another one where he said that if he were president and that happened, he would resign….so, donnie, what’s keeping you from it? You’ve been running on Obama’s economy and the huge deficits that your repub cronies helped create but now it looks like the happy fun times are over and you just don’t have the people or smarts to do anything about it….so, moron, resign since you are just a rotting stain on this country and the stench is spreading everywhere….hey, the weekend is coming…any bets on if idiot boy goes golfing?

The “messaging” is most important?

Well…this is what you get when you have radical idiots running the WH who don’t believe in science…have you heard of one action that these morons are going to take to help prevent the spread of the coronavirus? Nope, me neither….but boy, they are sure concerned with the “messaging” about the virus…..much more  than they are the about virus itself, muzzling all of the people in the CDC and the NIH and telling the world that every statement has to be approved by idiot junior pence…even though he is too damn dumb to understand anything that the scientists are saying…and how much do you want to bet that this bottleneck is going to help the virus spread instead of contain it when immediate action is needed. this is typical idiot trump bullshit…he has always cared more about himself and what people are saying about him than doing his damn job…just like a teenager having the mean girls talk about him…trump is going to get people killed with his bullshit and yet every damn repub still backs him…what a damn cult….

Here’s the difference…

Well…if you need another example of how destructive the repub party has become…and you really shouldn’t…just look at the response of the two parties to the potential of a coronavirus outbreak here in the US. The dems have come out in agreement with the professionals in the government health community (what few of them are left) that we should start to prepare just in case the worst happens…which is how every damn outbreak in the country has been handled until idiot boy trump and his minions were installed by Putin…very reasonable by my estimation…but the response of the repubs and the pundits on the right are all filtered through a political lens that says that there is no problem, it’s just the dems trying to scare us for political gain and to hurt the idiot boy…so I guess that the dems got to every investor and trader on Wall Street and forced them to sell their stocks? And the dems forced ole Rushbo to call this deadly virus “just an exaggerated cold” that no one has to worry about? And the dems forced China to quarantine at least 5 major cities and shut down factories, schools, and offices for no reason other than to make trump look bad? This is the problem when your entire world is based on conspiracy theories and lies…those on the right can no longer see what is true and by minimizing the threat, they are preventing the basic steps necessary to mitigate the effects if there is a huge outbreak…let’s just ask on simple question: do the dems control the CDC, the NIH or the funding for these essential pandemic fighters? Nope, it’s all on the morons including the moron in chief and they will continue to live in their delusions as the country waits for the worst…

Hey trump lovers, how’s your 401K today?

Well…yeah, that’s a recycled title….did one of these a few months back but had to do another one today with the Dow down another 400 points after yesterday’s selloff of 1100 points…so that makes a 5 1/2 percent loss in just two days…if you had 100K in yours you now only have 94,500 dollars…I know I sometimes harp on the stock market here but it’s only because the idiot trump thinks it’s the be all and end all to the economy’s health…so you gloat when it goes up, so now you have to take the crap when it falls…especially when it is trump’s lack of concern that the coronavirus is even serious…saying “everything will be fine when April comes” and somehow the magic of the calendar changing will stop the virus from infecting anyone else while trump decimates funding for the NIH and the CDC. He also cut the US contribution to the WHO, the organization that is at the forefront of the fight against this virus….and, I said yesterday, people are going to die because trump and his cronies are shortsighted assholes and are using cuts in funding to push their anti science bullshit…does that matter to you trumpies? Yeah…probably not…after all, the people dying so far are “foreigners” and who cares about them?

The stock market weighs in…

Well…have been busy this morning and just finished up my chores for the day but I needed to come here and weigh in on the orange idiot’s ego stroking tour of India while the deadly new virus explodes around the world. Gee…I wonder if cutting funds for the NHS and the CDC is a good idea right now…yeah, we know the answer to that one…the stupident hates science and facts so he thinks that any government agency that deals in that is not  necessary and an easy place to cut money so he can give it to the military…I wonder if the military has virus targeting bombs and missiles? So now, the stock market, that trump trots out to lie and say the economy is doing great, is falling like a rock…down over 1,000 points already today as business weighs in on the incompetence of trump and his minions and the prospect that not one damn person that idiot boy has appointed has any idea how to deal with any real emergency…just the ones that trump fabricates in his moldering brain. And what do we get from trump? Standing in front of the Taj Mahal with the stupid grin on his face for a photo op while his incompetence kills people around the world. It is going to get much, much worse since he is too stupid to understand anything…remember that this fall…it could be your family and friends that trump is killing….

I understand Bernie’s appeal….

Well…let’s get this straight right up front…Bernie calling himself a “Democratic Socialist” is just a label that I think he should stop using…and the label isn’t descriptive of his policies which are really mainstream dem from only a decade or so ago…and they were normal from a decade or two ago before the dems started their rightward slide under Clinton. With his performance and win in Nevada, he is the front runner right now and I can understand his appeal…after decades of the same old bullshit incremental change that the dems have tried, to be blocked at every turn by unscrupulous repubs, the people on our side are tired of small ideas, are tired of the rich running the show and getting whatever they want, and are tired of us having no voice as business as usual happens to us. What we need now is a big vision and big ideas and that is why young people are flocking to Bernie…they are the ones who are bearing the brunt of inequality and lessened opportunity that the repubs have forced on them…and they want someone who will at least listen and try to make their lives better, something that will never happen with the repubs in charge….and can you imagine a ticket with Bernie and Liz on it? Or Bernie and Amy? Now that would be something to see…Liz taking Pence apart in a debate as Bernie would with the idiot trump….but I am going to harp on this again…vote for the dem no matter who it is…no sulking Bernie Bros or anyone else if you person doesn’t earn the nomination…the stakes are too high for sitting in the corner and not voting because your favorite didn’t get there…and we need the senate back so get the hell out and vote as if your life depends on it…it really does…

Where the hell are Pelosi and Schiff?

Well….not sure if you heard yet that the idiot trump fired the DNI Joseph McGuire for following the law and reporting to the House intelligence committee that the Russians are it again…they are doing everything they can to help trump…again…and surprise this is just part of  a large conspiracy with the repubs to let Putin do it…with McConnell, Nunes, Goetz, and the rest of them all in on working with the Russians to hurt our country for the dictator trump. My question right now is: where the hell are Pelosi and Schiff? The subpoenas should be flying for everyone who is involved in this criminal enterprise, and yet all we hear from Pelosi is just some innocuous tweet and not the all out hair on fire reaction that we should be seeing from both of them. I just can’t write about this anymore…at least today…our country is being attacked and no one is doing a damn thing about it….

It’s a knife fight…

Well…as per normal, I didn’t watch the dem debate last night but I have been reading about it and yow! I guess Mike Bloomberg thought his money would protect him from attacks from the other candidates but it really, really didn’t…starting with Liz, he was punched from all sides and knifed for good measure with no response but to show his disdain for having his rich ass questioned when he feels like his money should shield him from everything…and you know the one thing I find striking about Mikey is how much he is like the idiot trump…from his mistreatment of women and minorities to not releasing his tax returns (and using the trump defense that they are just too complicated to release), to having everyone he comes into contact with required to sign NDA’s, and being accused of silencing women he has harassed using those same NDA’s, he just appears to be another rich guy who thinks the rules don’t apply to him and people should just bow down to him because he is rich…but the others on the stage last night weren’t having it and I really hope that they have damaged him enough so he can’t buy the nomination…the last thing we need on our side is repub lite when we need true progressives to repair the damage the repubs have done over the past thirty years…

Barr is not resigning…

Well….okay, let’s cut through the bullshit and get to the point…I have read all of the breathless reports that the corrupt Bill Barr is “thinking” of resigning and want to stop the wishful thinking right now….Barr is not resigning…this is all part of the coordination with the WH to take the heat off Barr for their destruction of the justice department…it has nothing to do with Barr growing a conscience since he has not shown one throughout his career…it is all about misdirection and showing the new “shiny object” to the media so they will stop writing about Barr’s corruption of the justice system…after all, Barr doesn’t care about his legacy since he has cemented his place as a right wing hero and is just drooling about getting his hands on some of that sweet sweet wingnut welfare…and has stated openly that he doesn’t care about his legacy, saying that “everyone dies” and the who cares? So, let’s stop all of the speculation…Barr isn’t going anywhere…
