The State Of The Union

Well, let's see now...

Both houses of Congress are infected with, oh let's call them, for lack of a better word, traitors. They come from many different states, and backgrounds, but they all share one thing. That "R" by their names. R for Russia.

But at least the billionaires are happy!

In the White House, there's a large, orange turd, and his somewhat smaller turd relatives stinking up the place. This Turd King has surrounded himself with neo-Nazis, white supremacists, crooks, and morons of all shapes and sizes. So his family fits right in...

They are all stooges for the Russians.

But at least the billionaires are happy!

After a brief respite, the Supreme Court once again has a majority of corporate whores. The chances of them stopping The Turd King and his band of criminals as they destroy the Constitution and a century of progressive change is so small as to be un-measurable.

So goodbye clean air and water, goodbye work place safety, goodbye affordable health care, goodbye equal pay for equal work, goodbye common good, goodbye quest for equality for ALL of our citizens, and goodbye to America's standing in the world.  

But at least the billionaires are happy!

And maybe in their happiness, they will spill just enough to keep some of you alive...

Maybe not.

And that is the State of the Union.

Hypothetical

Let's say that you're an elected official from a political party that will do ANYTHING to win.

Lie, cheat, steal...whatever. You are ready, willing, and able to pander to the worst strains of American life. In fact, the worst strains comprise your base.

Let's say that a certain foreign country understands this about your party.

Let's say that this foreign country is happy to send millions and millions of dollars to your party, through means legal and otherwise, just to fuck with the United States. To weaken us at home and abroad. To weaken all of our alliances, especially the European ones.

This country is also willing to do "other" things to help...

And low and behold, all of that "help" put Donald J. Trump in the White House.

An ignorant, racist, sexist, crooked buffoon...but with that all important "R" by his name. So it's all good.

And here we are. Ceding our place in the world to the Chinese, who aren't governed by morons. Watching the European Union dissolve into factions, while the Russians wait patiently to pick up the pieces. Having America's word mean less and less on the world's stage. Becoming a punchline.

Unfortunately, when you ask a Republican controlled Congress to investigate how this happened, and what we can do to reverse it, you are in essence asking the criminals to investigate the crime.

Millions And Millions Of Imbeciles

Even after all of it, the non-stop lying, the wall to wall incompetence, the corruption, the racism, the beyond the pale behavior, the rampant egoism, the sexism, the general grossness, the Nazi coddling, the pornstar payoff--did I mention the wall to wall incompetence?

Even after all of that, there are still apparently millions of Americans who think that Donald J. Trump, the Flaming Orange Anus himself, aka the Racist in Chief, aka Putin's Boy Toy, is doing a good job as President. Make that a great job!

What this means is that there are millions and millions of imbeciles in this great land of ours.

If you don't believe me, try reading the letters to the editor of the Arizona Republic some time...

They may look like us. They may sound like us. They may enjoy some of the same things we do. Hell, you might even be related to some of them.

But they're still fucking imbeciles.

Since the Russian rigged election of 2016, there have been countless "think" pieces detailing how the Democrats should reach out to these "forgotten" voters. Listen to them. Make nice. Feel their pain.

No way. Fuck 'em! They are a loud, bitter, ignorant minority. 

They are deeply stupid and you can't change deep stupidity. It's too ingrained. Don't waste your time.

Better to let them stew in their ignorance.

After all, they obviously revel in it. Like pigs in slop.

The 200 Year Old Racist

Once and for all, Donald J. Trump is as healthy as any obese, pasty, intellectually incurious, septuagenarian who eats junk food all day, and whose idea of exercise is to either ride around in a golf cart, or sit on the toilet tweeting, has ever been.

He has excellent cognitive skills, too. (insert laughter here)

And he has "incredible genes".

(Have you ever had your genes examined during your physical? Me neither. In fact, I'm very interested in how that would even be done by an MD.)

The man is a fucking medical wonder, I tells ya!

And he has a doctor's note to prove it.

So that should settle that, huh?

After all, who you gonna believe, his doctor or your lyin' eyes and all the evidence to the contrary?

Norway

Norway is a Scandinavian country in Northern Europe. It's just chock full of white--very white--people. Translucent, almost.

When Hitler got all hot and bothered for the Aryan race, it was blue-eyed, blonde Scandinavians he was thinking of. The Ur white.

Oh, I'm sure there are a handful of non-white folks there, too. The Norwegians, unlike Donald J. Trump and his brain dead supporters, are tolerant people. But the only reason Trump, the racist piece of shit currently residing in the White House, likes Norway is because of the large majority of white people there.

I doubt very much that Il Trumpo could find Norway on a map. In fact, I'd bet money that he couldn't. But he does know about all those white people.

And he really likes white people. He wants them, and only them, to move here.

Non white people, not so much...

I suppose we could blame his racist piece of shit father for this, but that's a cheap cop out. Donald J. Trump is 70 years old. He should know the difference between right and wrong by now, whatever Dear Old Dad taught him.

Oh, one more thing. Why on earth would anyone from Norway, by all accounts a civilized society, with healthcare and education for all, and no Second Amendment rights' addicts waving their great big guns in everyone's face, want to emigrate to the good ol' USA? Visit? Sure. See a few shows, do a little shopping, maybe take the kids to Disneyland and the Grand Canyon. And then get out of this "armed madhouse", before someone shoots them. Live here? Not if they're sane.

I don't know what kind of hut you live in. Maybe, in the words of our Orange Turd, it's a "shithole."
Not enough gold leaf for his taste, probably...But America is made up of all colors, all religions, all languages, all cultures, all economic classes. If we ever lose that, we lose what makes us "exceptional."

Better to lose Trump, and all his enablers, as soon as possible.
