How much more pathetic can trump get?

Well…it appears the John McCain is still in the idiot trump’s head even after death…during the idiot in chief’s trip to Japan last week, someone ordered that the name on the USS John McCain be covered up with a tarp so trump didn’t have to see it when he was touring another ship that was moored near the McCain…and the sailors from the McCain were told they could not come to hear him speak wearing hats that had the name of their ship on them…like everyone else was allowed to do…now, idiot boy said he had nothing to do with it but someone who works for trump knows he is a  pathetic, thin skinned moron and would freak out if he saw the name McCain while he was there…and then there would be a huge possibility that the blowup would be ugly and public…so now, the *president has to be protected from names he doesn’t like? We all know that trump can’t read so I guess it’s a good thing…or he would have someone on the government payroll just cutting out words that trump doesn’t like from the daily briefings or newspapers…I wonder who does that at fox news? What a pathetic excuse for a human being…impeach…

It’s official…

Well…if you already felt that the repub tax scam was not doing anything for you, it was made official today when the non-partisan Congressional Research Service released it’s analysis of the bill and it’s effects and they are even worse than predicted. Every damn bit of the benefit went to corporations and the rich at the top of the food chain…wage growth for the rest of us suckers didn’t even keep up with inflation as corporate profits soared along with CEO pay….and those soaring profits were used for one thing…stock buybacks that benefited the 1%…no jobs were created, no pay for workers was raised, no nothing. One thing that was raised was the deficit and the scam that the cuts would pay for themselves, something that was touted just last week by the hacks who are now in charge of the economy, has been proven wrong again…as they have every damn time these repub morons lie about it and use that lie to make inequality even worse. This tax scam was never about creating jobs or raising worker pay…it was always about the repubs and the rich figuring out how to loot more of the economy for themselves before the inevitable crunch comes when demand falls since no one can afford to buy anything…that is showing up now in the auto industry where the average price for a pickup truck has soared to over 50,000 dollars…who the hell can afford an 800 dollar a month truck payment? The bill for this nonsense is going to come due soon and there is no one in this administration who has the skills to cope with it….and we are all going to pay for it…oh, except the rich that is…geez….

trump does Russia another favor..

Well…if it wasn’t enough that the idiot trump’s tariffs are destroying farms and farmers across the US, guess who one of the biggest winners is in this dispute? Yep, you guessed it, Russia…trump’s buddy Putin just announced a huge new trade deal with China for pork and soybeans to supply the market that the US has “abandoned” according to Putin. Now we know that trump sides with Russia and our other adversaries in almost everything…just look at the example of him siding with Kim of Korea over our intelligence agencies this weekend…but throwing our farmers under the bus to help out Russia should be enough to impeach this son of a bitch today if not sooner. The really stupid thing about these tariffs is that these markets that farmers worked for decades to establish are now gone for a generation or more even if the tariffs were lifted today…and the hatred that the entire world feels for trump is going to be paid for in job losses in every commodity that we export…no one wants to deal with us since there is an ignorant idiot in charge of our interaction with the world and the majority just don’t trust trump or his minions anymore, if they ever did. So, trump voters…this is what you did to this country…are you even a little ashamed yet? Impeach….

40,000 beer jobs gone to tariffs…

Well…maybe this will start to get the country’s attention…in a study released last week, it appears that trump’s stupid tariffs are now reaching their jobless tentacles into other parts of the economy other than farmers. As every damn economist has said, the only result of these stupid tariffs is that Americans will pay for them…both in higher prices and in job losses in every damn industry…and the beer industry is no different with almost 40,000 jobs gone since the higher costs were imposed on the industry and companies have had to scale back production and expansion because of the higher costs…you might say because of this new tax put on the American people. For a comparison, this 40K jobs are more jobs than every damn coal job east of the Mississippi and it is just the start that will get much, much worse when the latest 25% tariffs kick in. So, why does trump hate the American worker so much? He’s just like every other entitled prick in this country…they don’t give a damn about anyone but themselves….and when you mix in trump’s epic stupidity, it will take years if ever to repair this damage…impeach…

Let’s go, Nancy…

Well…with the news from yesterday that the idiot trump and his toady Barr are going to use the justice department to attack people who trump thinks did him wrong, with trump going so far as to bleat treason when he really has no clue what the word even means, it time to go Nancy Pelosi…it’s time to start impeachment to protect this country from this absolutely unfit asshole and let the entire world know who trump is and stop this ruination of our country and institutions. This is not the time to even consider politics in this decision, it is imperative to get this process started or there won’t be any politics to worry about anymore…there won’t be any country left after the repubs are done with it…their constant graft and lies and lawbreaking needs to be stopped…and I don’t want to hear the argument that impeachment could cost us the House or get trump re-elected…surveys already say that 54% of the American people already won’t vote for trump…so do you think that after all of trump’s crimes are revealed live on tv that more people would vote for him? Let’s go, Nancy…it’s time to protect this country and let the chips fall where they may…impeach…

This is pretty funny…

Well…decided to not do a second ride today with the wind blowing over 20 and gusting to 30 or so…so, I thought I’d do one of these before I try to take a nap to compensate for getting up before 5 this morning…I just read something that is pretty damn funny..it seems that this morning, Nancy Pelosi called on the idiot trump’s family or staff to intervene with him before he hurts himself or the country given the spectacle of his meltdown yesterday. Now, you know I’m an old guy and have been around for a while, but in all of those years I’ve never heard a speaker of the House ask a president’s family to intervene before he hurts himself…and trump’s reactions this morning shows that she has set up house in his head rent free and is owning the moron in chief and that makes me laugh out loud. I wonder how this will set with the “great businessman” to be roundly ridiculed by everyone who saw his little hissy fit in the Rose Garden yesterday? Meltdown, meltdown, meltdown….impeach this ass right now….

The toddler in chief holds his breath…

Well..damn, trump really is a toddler…after storming out of a meeting after three minutes with Pelosi and Schumer that was supposed to be about how to start fixing our crumbling infrastructure, the toddler in chief went out to talk to reporters and whine that he won’t do his job until congress stops investigating him…the only thing missing was him jumping up and down and holding his breath. Is this enough repubs? Is it finally enough that this moron criminal won’t even talk to anyone about his frickin job unless they cave to his blackmail? You can see the meltdown coming and it is really going to hit the fan when the appeals court that has the case about his obstruction by not providing his financial statements rules against him and Mazars has to hand all of it over. Today was such a childish spectacle of an entitled idiot coming apart when he was told no you can’t have ice cream before dinner…the ball is in your court dems, it is now time to get the impeachment ball rolling and remove this obviously unfit toddler from office…

One down…many, many to go..

Well….guess what? You’re getting another one early this morning as I wait for the guys to bring the new appliances…and this is a little bit of good news for those of us who thinks the law applies to everyone. Just yesterday, a court decided that yes, idiot boy trump’s accounting firm Mazars HAS to hand over 10 years of trump’s financial records to the House Oversight committee and the ruling is a strongly worded affirmation that the House does have the authority to get any information they need to carry out their duties and the fact that he refused a stay while idiot boy’s lawyers appeal the decision says that the judge feels that the decision will survive appeal…as long as trump’s hand picked judges don’t overturn hundreds of years of precedent and ignore the clear intent of the constitution. So, the dam starts to break and this is just the first of many losses that trump is going to suffer as he breaks the law every day trying to cover up his crimes….impeach…

More lies…to war….

Well…sitting here waiting for the maintenance guys to come to look at my washer and thought I’d talk a little about a new development in the constant attempt by the idiot trump and his idiot NSA John Bolton to lie us into war with Iran. If you remember, Bolton was instrumental in lying us into war with Iraq pushing the WMD bullshit and how did that turn out? 7 trillion dollars later we have a barely stable Iraq that is more closely allied with Iran every day and none of Bolton’s or Cheney’s predictions were even remotely true….and now he is pushing trump into more war crimes in the middle east with the lies that Iran is building up to attacking the US. When this bullshit was presented to our truth based allies, they all laughed in Mike Pompeo’s face and told him bluntly that they are misinterpreting the intelligence and they will not go along with any attack on Iran…and will even condemn the attack in the UN and side with Iran. I wonder how happy Putin is with this latest wedge driven between the US an Europe by their installed puppet trump? Putin seems to be getting everything he wanted by elevating idiot boy…and I can see that smirk on his face that says he can’t believe how well his intelligence operation worked. No one in the world believes anything trump or his administration says anymore…can we have a little more winning please? Impeach…

Crooked damn Michigan republicans…

Well…I guess the will of the people means nothing to Michigan republicans…of course, we knew that with their continued efforts to rig elections here to make sure they control the state when they get massively less votes in every damn election. The latest from these anti-American assholes sees them trying to destroy the constitutional amendment that would undo their partisan gerrymandering and that was approved by 61% of the voters here that would take the drawing of congressional districts out of the hands of these cheaters and put it into the hands of a bipartisan commission that would draw the lines fairly…but no, the repubs know that fairly drawn districts would put them permanently in the minority here so, of course, they are trying to defeat the Michigan constitution by refusing to fund the commission, trying their best to prevent our democracy from functioning for purely partisan bullshit. Now, since we control the governorship and the attorney general’s offices here, we can stop them from passing any of this last gasp of cheating by the repubs…but why should we have to? Why do we have to put up with the repub party here never ever doing anything to solve the problems we have here but just continual naked power grabs that make life here worse. We need to throw every damn one of them out and burn that party to the ground….
