Day 1152 What the Hell Happened?
Saturday November 23, 2019
347 Days until the 2020 election and 432 days until the Inauguration
I think everyone knew when Trump got elected it would be different.
But did anyone think it would be like this?
Well, yes and no, I suppose, but if anyone had said, … I dunno, pick your poison.
I mean, I guess we’d say, “Yeah, I expected something like this, but …”
I saw an old guy with a walk cane that has one of those three rubber tip bases shuffling up to a cash register at a diner. He was wearing a “Keep America Great – Trump 2020” hat. I wanted to go up to him and ask, “Is what’s happening your idea of greatness?”
I’ve watched Jim Jordan say and do the most awful things in terms of bullying, and I want to stand in front of him and look him in the eye, because I think he is a coward and a prevaricator. I don’t think he could take it. I’d like to ask him how does it feel to be a useful idiot for Russia.
I’d like to ask Devin Nunes how much he is getting paid to destroy our country.
And now Lindsey Graham? WTF? What has Trump done to him. Graham was always a bit weird, but I thought he liked our country and would stand up for it. But to carry out an investigation of Joe Bden based on disinformation provided by Russian Intelligence?
Let’s be clear. All these men know what they are spouting is Russian disinformation. They’ve been told. They’ve been shown. The evidence is clear. There is no ambiguity. Yet, to quote Dr. Hill, “Here we are.”
It’s like Pogo* says. “We have seen the enemy and he is us.”
*Pogo was a comic strip popular in WWII and the years after. He was a fuzzy headed possum like character.
Dr. Hill warned the Republicans in the Intelligence Committee about the dangers of Russian disinformation and she showed the way that we as Americans could come together to fight this threat. Yet, these men are too small minded to heed her advice.
Time Magazine had Trump on the cover recently with the quote, “My whole life has been a bet.” I would say his whole life has been a con.
The only question is “Will he be able to pull off the biggest con of his life?”

PS One of many ramps inside one of many pyramids I climbed down (and back up). If you want to do a pyramid tour I would suggest getting in shape by duck walking, crawling backwards down stairs using your hands and feet, chest presses, and walking for several hundreds of feet in a crouch with knees bent.
