Well…still sitting here nursing the foot after skipping the second ride and thought I’d do a short one on the most pathetic thing I have seen in the host of pathetic things that trump and his minions have done. Just last week, when idiot boy got news he didn’t want to hear from a CNN poll that showed him losing to Joe Biden by 13 points, he screamed at his trolls to send a cease and desist letter to CNN to stop publishing the poll that shows that trump is a loser….now, threatening legal action because your fe fees are hurt because you are losing big and someone is reporting it is just the head slapping stupidity everyone expects from him…and it shows how far trump’s minions have to go to keep the toddler in chief from throwing fits every hour of every damn day…I am counting the days until this criminal is sent back to one of his tasteless, gaudy golf clubs while he waits for his crimes to catch up with him and the inevitable perp walk….150 days…

They’ve just given up…
Well…I guess governing and protecting the American people is too hard for trump and his cronies so they have just given up on the pandemic and idiot boy is back at his golf course prepping for more “rallies”…the coronavirus task force doesn’t meet anymore and all of the people who were reporting on progress (what little there was) have been told to stop making trump look bad and have been forbidden to talk to the press since idiot boy feels the whole virus thing is over and it’s time to move on…the only problem with that is in the red states that did little or nothing to prevent the spread of the virus are now seeing their cases spike and their hospitals overwhelmed….doctors in Houston are saying that they are close to “disaster” as all of their ICU beds are full but cases are still rising sharply…and this is the case in Florida, Arizona, Alabama, Alaska,Arkansas….where the average increase in cases since “reopening” has been around 300% and the pandemic is still in full force…not just the smoldering dying embers as idiot boy describes it…but a full fledged emergency with the death toll across the country now over 110,000 and predicted to go to 250,000 by mid July…and trump and his cronies do nothing…this is an impeachable offense right there and every damn one of them should be in jail for malfeasance after they are thrown out of office in November since the senate repubs won’t do a damn thing to protect Americans, either. One small bright spot is here in Michigan where we had the fourth highest amount of cases and deaths in the country but now, after our science based reopening, our cases are down 64% and are still falling…gee, I wonder if using fact based decision making had something to do with that? It sure looks like basing public health decisions on politics isn’t working too well in the red states….and it is going to get worse with idiot boy crisscrossing the country to put on his hate rallies with no social distancing or any other form of protection for the attendees…but trump is protecting himself by forcing everyone going to the rallies to sign a waiver saying that if they get sick, they can’t hold trump or his campaign responsible…so, there’s no danger but you can’t blame trump for killing you…sounds like danger to me….
Another bloodbath…
Well…hey, MAGA folks…how’s your 401K looking today? Or the stocks that you poured all your money into over the past month or so since the know nothing investment “experts” and the idiot trump lied to you about where the market was going? You just lost at least 7% of it today as the stock market cratered to the tune of over 1800 points…and the real experts who have been saying there was no rational reason for the continuing increase in stock prices have been proven right…again…look, here’s how stupid these investors have been…they have bought into many, many bankrupt companies and have pumped their stocks up to the point that they were worth more than when they declared…something that has never happened before…and you know who is dumping this inflated stock? The rich guys who have been bankrolling the so called “experts” on fox business in a classic “pump and dump” scheme and they will walk away with all these moron’s money, leaving these right wing investors with worthless paper…now, I am trying really hard to have some sympathy for these folks but we all have to remember it was people like these investors that gave us trump and still support the criminal in chief…so maybe them getting some of the damage that trump has done to this country dropped in their laps is not a bad thing….
He’s even more nuts today…
Well…cripes…I think I’ve said this many, many times before but the idiot in chief is even more nuts today…reacting to a typically Seattle protest in the center of the city where the police have abandoned a station there…not because of violent protesters but to keep a protest from becoming violent, the thug in chief went nuts and called the peaceful protesters “ugly anarchists” and said they must be “stooped” IMMEDIATELY. MOVE FAST…yep that exactly what the moron in chief tweeted….I wonder if he means they must be bent over like walking with a cane? As you’ve seen, idiot boy is so threatened when anyone exercises their constitutional rights which is what these peaceful protesters are doing…and they are doing it by showing movies and making cupcakes….monstrous actions that need to be stopped….the mayor of the city, Jenny Durkan had this perfect response to trump’s rage tweeting..”Make us all safe, go back to your bunker” ….and the governor, Jay Inslee, weighed in with….”stay out of Washington State’s business…stoop tweeting”. I guess people are finally pushing back on the moron since they now know he is all talk and bluster and won’t do a damn thing because it’s too much work….the people on the ground in Seattle know their city and the people there and know what the correct response to the protest are….trump really should STFU and get another Big Mac…that’s all he’s good for….
No more hero worship…
Well…if you’ve been here before…okay, quite a bit before, you could have read my earlier posts on the fetishistic worship that this country has been giving police and military since the 9/11 attacks…all of this thank you for your service bullshit and elevating just normal Americans into the superheroes that they now believe they are is part of the cause of the contempt both the military and police show for ordinary citizens who are expressing their rights under the constitution. The death of George Floyd and the subsequent huge protests against police brutality and the daily pictures of the military brought in to attack American citizens has finally started inject some reality into how we all look at these folks and is knocking them off their pedestals…pedestals in the eyes of whites anyway…black and brown people in this country always knew what the reality was…that most of the police forces in this country are infested with white supremacists who live to try to take this country back to Jim Crow and put everyone who is not white in “their place” with violence and racial profiling. All of this hero worship only serves to separate both the police and military from the society they take an oath to protect…and immediately makes the people an enemy that needs to be controlled and not their bosses who deserve respect and protection….maybe these protests will finally throw the pedestals in the ocean and then we can go about reforming how policing is done in this country…starting with confiscating every piece of military hardware police have been given over the past 30 years…and removing the star wars storm trooper outfits that the police seem to just love…no more vests, helmets, and gloves that they use to intimidate everyone and every police wears a name tag and camera that is on at all times and it is a firing offense if it is turned off…and no more immunity from the laws of this country like the Minnesota cops that went on a rampage and slashed the tires of hundreds of cars just to show who is “boss” in Minneapolis…and if the cops strike to again show they are above the law, then we dissolve the departments and start from scratch with modern policing that focuses on helping people instead of killing them…no more hero worship..after all, they are not heroes and they have been showing that since before the protests began…
This makes me smile…
Well…damn, it’s been another busy day with running since about 7 but I did want to make a short comment on the happenings going on with the idiot boy and his collapsing in the polls…cripes, I would love to be inside the WH when the moron in chief is fed this new information…or they may not even tell him since his campaign manager made up some fake poll numbers when trump blew up about the real ones last week…okay, buried the lede there, huh? Okay, the new polls put Biden up on trump by 54% to 41% nationally and idiot boy’s approvals at the lowest of his *presidency at 38%….and in every swing state that trump stole, he is behind by at least 8 points and by 12 here in Michigan….and those polls were done before trump’s attack on peaceful protesters and his turning the WH into a armed camp with new fencing that keeps people blocks away….and just the past couple of days we have many, many repubs turning their backs on idiot boy and saying they won’t support or vote for him…gee, being a huge asshole who is shredding the constitution is not a good case for re-election I guess….now, the last thing I want our side to do is get complacent and give the asshole in chief a chance to win…but I think we can take one day to enjoy the fact that we’re not behind and it’s probable now that we can take back the senate, too….but, just one day…then we need to make sure we all vote and get rid of the tumor in the WH….
The irony is just delicious…
Well…have been taking it easy a little today but I did want to comment on what I see as just a frickin delicious irony…just saw pictures of the crowds protesting in DC a few minutes ago and the thought struck me…they are larger than the idiot trump’s inaugural crowds by a huge margin! Okay Lincoln project, where’s the ad stabbing at idiot boy for this? You know how much everything about him and he gets the biggest crowds etc…this one could be a two fer…they could jab him about the crowd size and then throw in that he lies about damn near everything with photos and everything…this would really piss off the moron in chief and would be in addition to the defection of lots of repubs of the past few days who said they wouldn’t support or vote for idiot boy….he just has to be stewing over the trashing he has been getting by these same repubs and just a little nudge should be all it takes to push him even farther over the edge…oh, and one more great ad would be directed at the enablers of the idiot and should say that trump can’t pardon everyone before he leaves office so the ones who are helping him break the law and trash the constitution are going to pay for their criminality…I’m talking to you Bill Barr and Mike Pompeo….and the rest of you…it’s going to get real in 5 months so I guess maybe you should stop criming? Nope, they are too stupid to understand that when we take back the government, the rule of law is going to apply again…just like it should have for the past 4 years….
The whole damn barrel is rotten…
Well…I am getting so damn sick and tired of the excuses being made for bad cops across this country and their daily abuses of the people they are sworn to protect and serve…and the culture of lying and coverup that permeates police departments everywhere. Just yesterday a couple of cops in Buffalo pushed a 75 year old to the ground where he hit his head and was bleeding out of his ear immediately…but it just gets worse from there…if you look at the video shot by a local tv station, you’ll see one officer bend down to help the injured man but he was then yanked back up by what I’ll assume is a supervisor and told to ignore him…which the whole bunch of maybe 30 cops did and the injured man laid there bleeding until the national guard came to his aid a few minutes later. Then a perfectly predictable thing happened….the cops lied about the incident in their reports…lying that the injured man just “stumbled and fell” all by himself…and these “bad apples” are so damn dumb that they didn’t even see that they were being filmed….but, even worse, when these two thugs were suspended, 57 cops resigned from the voluntary rapid response team in support of the thuggery and lying the two officers did…and just today when the two officers were arraigned on assault charges, 70 of their fellow officers stood outside of the court and clapped and cheered for the thug officers who injured the 75 year old. Now by my count, that is at least 120 other officers who think that beating up 75 year olds and lying about it is perfectly fine behavior for the police in Buffalo…look, as we’re seeing across the country there aren’t just a few ‘bad apples”…the whole damn barrel is rotten and every damn one of them needs to be fired…there is no saving the rotten barrel and the rotten officers that live in it…they all need to go…
Bill Barr’s brownshirts…
Well…you know we’ve all been wondering when the fascist Bill Barr would use his position as AG to further corrupt the justice department but we didn’t think it would be forming his very own brownshirt army that only reports to him. You remember the brownshirts don’t you? They were Hitler’s personal army that he would sic on his enemies and many times the enemies would end up in jail, dead, or disappeared….and now Barr has his own version of the brownshirts that he has deployed around DC to “control the riots” that are only riots to him…everyone else sees that the protests have been peaceful until the police and Barr’s private army attacks the protesters…just like they did when the idiot trump just had to have his photo op of walking to a church that didn’t want him there. Never in the history of this country has an AG had his own private army that wear no insignias, who won’t identify themselves to the press or the public…cripes, the AG doesn’t even have the authority to command the police or any other group like the national guard that he has also usurped command from the normal chain of command. Now…the question I have to ask is “where is Nancy Pelosi in all of this?” It is her job to be a check on the executive branch and she can defund Barr’s private army today so why hasn’t she? this needs to be done now and Barr needs to be impeached for this abuse of power…get on it Nancy…the country may not last until trump is gone…
The #bunkerbitch was “inspecting”
Well…with “bunkergate” in full swing, okay, I’m trying to get bunkergate to trend with not much luck yet, the idiot in chief had to go on his propaganda network; fox news to whine and cry that he wasn’t hiding in the bunker but had gone down there to “inspect” it to make sure he knew his way around in case of a terrorist attack…okay…yeah…I’m laughing my ass off at that one…since when did trump actually do any work? And he damn sure wasn’t doing any “inspection” when he fled to the bunker to escape the dangerous shouts of people protesting outside…you know, those 50 caliber shouts that can kill from 300 yards away? This moron is falling apart in front of our eyes and when asked about all of the crazy assed shit trump has done in just the past week, every damn repub senator, who by the way left him in office after he was impeached..oh, remember that…he is still the impeached *president…I’d almost forgotten…back to the running senators…every damn one of them have run away when asked about trump gassing protesters to get his photo op….not one of them would answer even when they won’t shut the hell up about everything else….so, let’s try to get #bunkergate trending…maybe on twitter…it would go really well with #bunkerbitch….and guess who it will piss off?
