Thursday December 24, 2020 (1 day til Christmas, also called “Christmas Eve”)
Election Day -51
28 Days until the Inauguration on January 20, 2021
Okay, well, hum Did anyone see the video of Satan and Melania leaving The White House yesterday to go to Florida? There were several interesting things to note:
– Where was Baron?
– Is Satan ever returning?
– Will he sign a Covid Relief Bill? Forget which one, will he sign?
– Did you notice the two hand gestures? The “thumbs up” and “the fist”? They are his signature rally signs. It seemed to me they were very lifeless. Especially, “the fist” which was more of a “whatever” gesture. Like – here’s the fist, kind of, eh, who give a sh*t? Goodbye.
Commentators were wondering if he was ever coming back from Florida. Is he done? Etc.
He threw out the idea that he wanted larger stimulus checks for people. He said he wants $2000.00 not $600.00, which is great. Great because it puts McConnell and the Republicans in the Senate in a real bind. And it screws up the two Republicans running for the Senate seats in Georgia in a huge bind. I mean what can they say? Oh we were always for the bigger checks? (Yeah? Bull!)
The history of the Republican Party from Reagan on has been to screw the average person. It has gotten worse over the years but now we are at a kind of climax. It will be sadly interesting to see how it plays out.
There’s little polling on the Senate races in Georgia. That’s because pollsters are gun shy. They were so wrong on so many races that these two, with so many variables, is not one they want to weigh in on. One pollster said that the problem they will have as pollsters and the electorate will have on January 6th is that you are literally running against Santa Claus. Yikes. Who wants to do that? Not the pollsters.
But here’s the real danger to the country right now. The president has vetoed the military spending bill. This means the Senate and the House can override the veto and the bill passes. No problem. It’s kind of interesting that Democrats will be able to run on the mime of Republicans Wanted to Defund the Military.
However, with the Covid relief bill of which there will be two versions: the $600 stimulus check version and the $2000.00 one. I suspect the $2,000 will be passed by the House soon and then given to McConnell to either put on the Senate floor or not.
Some Covid bill will end up on the president’s desk. The question is “will he sign it?”
Forget that he’s in Florida. Will he sign it? If he doesn’t sign then the country is screwed. The president is given ten days to sign a bill. If he doesn’t it’s called “a pocket veto.” In ten days Congress will be done. They won’t have time to override his pocket veto. There will be no relief for anybody. No $600 check, no $2,000 check, no eviction protections – nothing.
Frankly, based on Satan’s limp fuck-it fist gesture I think he is done with being president. He will probably come back to the White House to strut around. Maybe tag a few things with a spray paint can, but that’s it. Sign a bill? Screw that!
Hey, Merry Christmas.

It makes me sick to see his fist gesture. He has his psychophants cheering with that silly gesture. If that all it takes to get them worked up, I wonder what is in their brains. Then he did his little dance with double fists and they cheered for that. Doesn’t take much to satisfy his base. It makes me wonder if Trump had any plan at all.
I just can’t wait until he is gone, gone, gone.
However, will there ever be anything known as “normal” again?

I think we will never go back to how we were with our fellow Americans. We can’t look past their support for evil and corruption and they think we will take they toys and ruin Christmas and America . I had to stop wishing happy birthday to people that have continued to post support of trump or attacks on Democrats. I don’t wish them a happy birthday or anymore birthdays they have shown they don’t care about the lives of others so call me petty but fuck em. I long for they days when policy differences could exist in the same household.
