Well…just read an article where the author described what desantis is doing to Florida is “Brexiting” the state…okay you may not know what Brexit is…it’s the vote that England mad to leave the European Union since the liars that were pushing it said they would be better off economically if they left…didn’t work out that way with no growth and high unemployment along with shortages of food and medicine…and the almost collapse of the National Health Service…along with all of the labor from the EU that left and that the British don’t want to do…so, in Florida higher education is collapsing since desantis has put so many restrictions on what can be taught and how it can be taught…an all of the undocumented workers are leaving the state since they can be charged with a felony if they stay…leaving produce rotting in the fields…and now there is a huge Malaria outbreak that is going to get worse since desantis fired all the competent people in public health and replaced them with his anti vax toadies…the comment was so on the nose since both brexit and Florida’s problems were caused by ideological assholes lying about the effect would be when they knew it wouldn’t be good…geez…

A mish mash of politics…
Well…as promised, I am going to do some political ones over the next few days and I thought I’d start with a sort of a mish mash of different topics since nothing is really grabbing me right now…let’s start with the debacle of a trip the second idiot had to Ireland over the weekend where they could not have planned it to be worse…maybe they should have planned for it to be a shitshow and then, because they are incompetent, it may have turned out good? The whole mess started when the second idiot and his staff booked their rooms at, of course, a trump property that was 180 miles away from where the conference was being held that he was attending…and it is quite hard to get 180 miles away from anything in Ireland but these morons did it…and they said out loud that first idiot trump “suggested” it, continuing to line his pockets with taxpayer money…by contrast, when Joe Biden visited Ireland for official business when he was VP, he stayed at the ambassador’s residence in Dublin at no extra cost of taxpayer money. After this grift was reported, trump’s staff tried to walk back the fact that he “suggested” Pence stay at his property saying that they never suggested anything…but we all know they lie about everything so of course they’re lying about that. Oh, and while there, Pence just had to weigh in on Brexit, praising Boris Johnson…and telling the Irish they should listen to him, completely oblivious to the fact that Ireland is staying in the EU and that Boris Johnson has nothing to say about Ireland at all…just another ignorant comment from Pence while he tries to keep trump happy by parroting trumpisms everywhere he goes. Okay…I guess this one is just going to be one topic and I’ll have to come back for a second one in a while…weird how often that happens…
The same infection in England…
Well…it appears that The UK has the same infection we have here with the rise of English nationalism and populism…along with the same kind of lies that gave us trump and his cronies. Over the past week, the PM, Boris Johnson, has basically said to parliament that they are no longer needed and he will make all the decisions on whether to leave the EU on 10/31, and got the Queen to approve of his suspension op parliament until 10/15, ensuring that the no-deal brexit will be the only option left on the table. Now, I know you’re saying who cares? It’s the UK, what does that have to do with us? The point I’m trying to make here is that all of these right wing assholes starting with trump lie their asses off to trick people into voting for them and then destroy every damn thing they touch…look what’s happening here with the idiotic tariffs…the latest numbers show that manufacturing output has contracted for the first time in 10 years over the last quarter and we are speedily heading toward a recession and it was all done on purpose from ignorance and ideology…and the same lying, ignorance, and wishful thinking got the majority of the UK to vote for Brexit even though it is going to cripple their economy if if goes forward…and now the ideologically rigid conservatives led by Johnson are doing just what trump did here…what conservatives do everywhere since they think ideology and wishful thinking trumps facts. Everywhere in the damn world these know nothings are ruining people’s lives and destroying economies…and people keep voting for them…stupid, stupid people.
Brexit supporters are just as stupid as trump’s
Well…as the deadline for the UK to leave the EU fast approaches, the pre-fallout of the economic chaos that is coming to the UK is starting to be much, much clearer. Just yesterday, Honda announced that it will close it’s plant there putting 3,500 people out of work and this is not the first company to understand that it will not be viable to continue to build anything in England. Airbus, Jaguar, and Nissan are just a few of the companies who have seen that their supply chains will see huge increases in costs without the integration of the EU but it doesn’t matter to the people who voted for brexit, whose primary reason for voting to leave the EU was their racist views on immigration and wanting to “keep England England” which is code for keeping “brown” people out. Sound familiar? In the US, the racist trump supporters did exactly the same thing and are seeing exactly the same results with the idiotic trump tariffs that are putting thousands of farmers out of business and the jobs that support those farmers are gone, too…and this is in areas that voted overwhelmingly for trump. Both trump followers and brexit supporters were lied to, with both trump and the parliments brexit MP’s saying that their economies would thrive and grow once “onerous regulations” were removed…but, it looks like the only thing being removed from England is jobs and the minority who supported brexit just doesn’t care….their hate is their security blanket as their economy craters….and it is just going to get worse…
Brexit….
Well…not sure if you’ve been following it or not, but England just voted to leave the EU and, in the process, threw a wrench into the global financial system….with the Dow losing over 600 points in reaction. And, it didn’t need to happen…it was just a political miscalculation by their prime minister, Cameron, who has been wrong on almost everything since he took over…especially with his slavish devotion to austerity which has hit the middle class and the poor in England much more than the ruling classes. But, when you dig into the numbers, it was the old, white people who were duped into voting against their own self interest by racist, xenophobic lies…does that sound familiar? It is the template that the repubs have been using in the US for some time now and, up to this point, it has worked…you just have to look at the nomination of Trump who threw the racism into overdrive and shouts it every chance he gets…but, the problem with the low information voters in England that voted with their guts instead of their heads is that they have just resigned their country to almost permanent recession….and have sentenced their children to less than they had…less opportunity for good jobs and less chance for them to advance in the world….just what Trump wants to do here….the stupidity is just hard to fathom….geez…
