Starting to have hope…

Well…you know my interest in politics was crushed when the idiots of the country elected the idiot in chief back in 2016 but gradually, I have edged back into it over the past few years as you can tell from the almost daily posts on that topic….it has been kind of easy to find a topic since the idiot trump and his cronies have trashed the country so much over the past 4 years…so much so that I’ve had very little hope that things would get better since the repubs think it’s their job to make life harder for everyone who is not a millionaire…but, with 2 weeks to go until the election, I have started to have a little glimmer of hope that this nightmare we have been living in is coming to an end. but that doesn’t mean I feel good about the election…far from it…I am going to be uneasy until the election is called…probably by the second week of November….one thing I see as being different this time from 2016 is that Biden’s lead is much larger than Hillary’s was at this same point…and in many of the swing states, Joe is up over 50% in the polling and that means that if it holds and the polling is not wildly incorrect, idiot boy can get all of the remaining undecided votes (who the hell can be undecided after 4 years of the nightmare of trump?) and still can’t get to the 50+1% that you need to win. So, to win, trump will have to run the table just like he did last time and I don’t think that is going to happen…after all Hillary had the baggage of 30 years of the right attacking her and that drove her likeability to the point that was underwater…and that is not the case with Joe. So, I’m going to hold my breath for a couple of weeks and try to not think about it too much…

Yep, it was a”shitshow”…

Well….cripes, I’m glad I didn’t watch any of the debate last night since every story I’ve read about it today described it as at least a “shitshow” and some as a “dumpster fire inside a shitshow”…and all of that was because of the idiot trump and his attempts at bullying Biden that didn’t work at all and his generally unhinged behavior that he displayed throughout the “debate”. Yeah, I put debate in quotes because it really wasn’t one…it was trump talking over Biden and lying his ass off all night…along with telling his white power followers to get ready to attack the election and it’s aftermath…you know, trump isn’t even running against Biden anymore…he’s running against the election and his meltdown last night showed he is losing it since he knows he is going to lose…and he knows from the news reports that there are many indictments waiting for him when he is thrown out of office…and I don’t believe the bullshit that he can disrupt the election enough to stay in office…I’m getting the feeling that it’s not even going to be close so any of his shenanigans are just not going to work. If I were Joe Biden, I would tell idiot boy right now that if he pulls that bullshit in the next debate he’s walking out the door and will then do a press conference instead….and tell the world it’s because you can’t debate a toddler…and that’s who trump is….

Biden and Harris release their taxes…

Well….this is pretty smart….just this afternoon, both Joe Biden and Kamala Harris released their 2019 tax returns and they showed that both families paid over 300,000 dollars in federal taxes, more than trump has paid in the past 20 years together. Coming just before the debate tonight, I can see Joe taunting trump with this little bit of info and I know that trump is going to fall back on the old “I can’t release my taxes since I am under audit” bullshit that has been debunked over and over but that idiot boy just repeated again over the weekend. The thing he is being audited over? Fraudulently claiming a 76 million dollar tax refund that he has been fighting in court for almost 10 years now….and the NYT stories about idiot boy’s tax returns just reinforce the fact that he has been a tax cheat all his life….and that is something that Joe needs to hit him with…that it is patriotic to pay what you owe and it isn’t to cheat on your taxes and pay less than almost everyone in the country. It appears they have some pretty sharp people in the Biden campaign…and we need to help them bring this home and restore some normalcy back to this country…vote!

Let’s compare…

Well…have been trying to figure out what to write about today and have finally come up with a topic….there were two town halls held in the presidential campaign this week and they could not have been more different…trump’s was filled with lies and lethargy as he sat on a chair looking like he wanted to be anywhere else than listening to real people with real problems hold his feet to the fire for his incompetence and stupidity. But at Biden’s, we saw what makes Joe the best person to go up against trump. Answering all the questions with details of policy and showing his trademark depth and empathy…and if you didn’t already know it, it showed he really does care for this country and the people in it…and he made sure to emphasize that he would be president for all of the people, not just those in the blue states. Watching Biden’s performance must have sent a few of trump’s cronies into shock since they have been trying so damn hard to label him as feeble minded and out of it…and sent the debate preppers into abject terror of what trump is going to face in the debates. It was so cool to see a normal America on the stage with Biden…not the “American carnage” and hate that trump spews and foments every damn day and have hope that if we elect Biden that things could start back toward normal and not live every day as if we all have PTSD. How could anyone who watched the idiot boy this week think he gives a damn about anyone but himself? That is the contrast that Biden’s campaign need to hammer on every day…and keep it up…

Don’t let the idiot blame Biden…

Well…I know I haven’t done many political ones lately but I am going to try to get better now that we are in the home straight to the election…if you’ve heard anything from the asshole in chief lately, the new talking point they are pushing is to blame Joe Biden for everything trump’s done….some kind of projection that we can’t let him get away with….just yesterday at another one of his virus spreading “rallies”, idiot boy rolled out the projection that you have to elect him or there will be a depression….hey moron, we are almost in a depression right now…20 million people out of work, the economy contracting at at 32% yearly rate, and the coming eviction/hunger crisis are the things that you see in a depression…and it’s happening on trump’s watch…Biden has nothing to do with it…and talking point number two is that cities will be in flames and rioting will be in every street….and again, trump is responsible for it…sending his brownshirts into Portland and Kenosha yesterday to attack peaceful protesters and even kill three of them…rolling through in their pickup trucks and pepper spraying protesters from the open windows….without the right wing assholes that trump is egging on to attack peaceful protests , there wouldn’t be any violence and if Biden is elected, the first amendment right to peacefully protest will be protected and right wing assholes will be locked up for the criminals they are. Look, you just have to remember that everything the idiot boy says is a lie…and also remember that projection is just part of trump’s many mental illnesses and they will get worse as the election goes on….so he just needs to go…get out and vote, please…we won’t survive if idiot boy gets another term…

Haven’t seen this in a while…

Well….look, we on the left do one thing really good and that is bitch and complain about just about everything in politics…you remember the “berniebros” who were willing to burn down the party if Bernie Sanders didn’t get the nomination and the “100 black men” who  posted a letter saying that they would sit out the election and Biden would lose if he didn’t pick a black woman for VP? And lets not get started about the hard left “progressives” who basically called Joe the same as trump and said they won’t vote because of it…we have always been the party of diversity of opinion and that sometimes erupts into “pie fights” as it’s called over on DK…but, yesterday it seems like the entire party was unified in its praise of Biden picking Kamala Harris as his VP….the good comments came from all across the spectrum that is represented by our party…from the left, the middle, and the right and they all seemed to be ready to go to work to elect the Biden/Harris ticket…okay, it’s only one day but to have no sniping at all is something I haven’t seen in  quite a while and does make me hopeful that everyone has gotten the point that they can’t get what policies they champion until trump is gone…and they at least will get the chance to make their cases with Biden…but we all need to work together to make that happen…cripes, I hope we can just this once….

It’s Kamala Harris….

Well…there has been tons of speculation on which of the supremely qualified candidates Joe Biden would pick for his VP and it was just announced it is Kamala Harris. I can get behind this choice even though Liz Warren was my first choice…Kamala is smart, tough, and accomplished and will absolutely destroy Mike Pence in the debates….and it’s about time that a woman was picked…it will make this country better when she is elected and will show little girls that yes, there is nothing they can’t strive for and achieve…and it will highlight even more that the dems are the party of the future and she will help drag Joe into that future…damn, I’m excited….

Joe sure looks and sounds like a president…

Well….after watching a few of the ads that the dems have put out with Joe Biden being Joe, the thing that strikes me is that he looks and sounds like a president, like a decent guy who does want to do what’s best for the country and doesn’t have a bone of hate in his body…I know we’re just getting into the meat of the campaign but I hope they do something like a split screen with Joe on one side and the idiot boy on the other going off on another of his hateful, ignorant, racist screeds….I do think that would bring home the chaos fatigue that most people are feeling right now…if they are anything like me, they are just damn tired of the awfulness of trump and his cronies and the constant lies they spout every day…and the fecklessness of trump’s coronavirus response which is now getting a new slogan from the trump camp…”you are just going to have to get used to it”…..not we’re digging in and will snuff out this scourge but meh, I’m bored and it’s too much work so just get used to your loved ones dying so I can go golf. Can you imagine this coming out of Joe’s mouth? Yeah, I can’t either and that’s the difference..trump doesn’t give a damn about you or me or anyone else…and Joe would die to protect you…pretty stark difference, huh?  Get out and vote….

Man, these people are dumb…

Well…I guess the new attack on Biden is that he wore a mask out in public when he laid a wreath at a memorial on Memorial day….it started with the idiot Brit Hume posting a photo of Biden wearing a mask in public and asking the question: “does Biden look presidential?” Trying to make the whole thing about how he looks and implying that a “real man” like trump  doesn’t need no stinkin mask…look, Brit…biden is following the recommendations to wear masks in public to protect other people and himself and is modeling that no one is above the rules and everyone has a responsibility to their fellow Americans to do their part…that is pretty damn presidential to me…hey, Brit…is trump’s tweeting of a conspiracy theory that Joe Scarborough murdered someone in his office presidential? Then today we have idiot boy’s press secretary trying to start a new Biden conspiracy theory that there is “a discrepancy there” because Biden and his wife aren’t wearing masks in their house when they do remote interviews but they wore them when they were out in public…god, these people are dumb…look, from the very damn start, if you are staying at home with people from your own household and no one is infected, it is perfectly fine to not use PPE around them…but you need to use masks  when you go out in public around people who are not from your household since you don’t know if they are spreading the virus…see, how frickin hard was that? I guess even that simple set of behaviors is too much for the trumpites to remember with their feeble little brains…cripes…

It’s “exercise”?

Well…I know I need to get back to doing political ones so I think I’ll dip my toe in right now and see how it goes…as the idiot in chief goes to another one of his golf courses for the 244th time since he was installed as *president and golfs for two days in a row, the death toll from his screwed up response to the deadly coronavirus heads quickly to 100,000 Americans…and still not a peep out of him about the loss of so many Americans and the trauma the deaths are causing to the families and friends left behind. But, that lack of empathy and character is not going unnoticed….with a new ad that came out yesterday, Joe Biden hits at trump for the loser he is and for being the cause of most of the deaths…and of course idiot boy had to take to twitter to try to defend himself even though everything about him is indefensible. Trump’s defense fell back on attacking Obama for some reason…oh, for his taking a golf outing when there were 2…count ‘em, two Ebola cases in the US….and…hmmm, I wonder how many hundreds of thousands died from Ebola on Obama’s watch? None….oh, back to the ad…idiot boy also tried to justify his golfing as “exercise” that everyone should do…but did you see him walking the course pulling his bag behind him….of course not, his “exercise” consists of walking 10 feet to where his ball landed and then walking 10 feet back to the cart…I guess he considers driving the cart to be “exercise” too….so Joe lands a punch that the idiot can’t dodge so he blows up like a toddler…again…..keep it up Joe, we need to see this idiot in jail next year….
