If I’ve learned anything …
Well, imagine …
I was thinking about my last screed where I wondered if anyone would spike the punch at Mar-a-Lago with LSD. This morning I started by asking Alexa to play Surrealistic Pillow by The Jefferson Airplane. I consider it one of the seminal albums of the 60s. It has rock, and folk, and ballads. It is sweet and it has songs like White Rabbit and Someone to Love, both are iconic songs with a driving build. After that I think the Airplane went into decline, mainly due to drugs. I heard The Starship live, once. Loud and confused. At the time of Surrealistic Pillow the thought was drugs like LSD would “open your mind.” All things seemed possible. But then drugs took hold of the mind and all was lost in a miasma of confusion and self absorption as people sturggled to function – stoned, drugged, out-of-it.
But there was that time when it was thought to be hilarious. The stumbling around, barely, but still funcitoning. I’d like to see those times return for Project 2025 and the Trump Team. They are incompetent yes, but imagine stoned and incompetent! Steven Miller out on the South Lawn baying at the moon, and mooning the fence as tourist stick their iPhones through the black metal bars to get a shot. Bannon standing on the table with the punch bowl pissing in it. Ah yes. Good times.
And Donald? He’d be quieter but otherwise you wouldn’t notice much difference. Then someone would find the horned furred buffalo head and the music would thump by some never heard of band and a conga line would start ,headed by one of the Project 2025 dickheads with Pam Bondi and dog shooter Kristi Noem holding on to the sides of some evil bastard as they wove around the ballroom. Donald would be standing on the stage waving a – what? Poker from the firplace? A Maga flag?
Then thiings would get ugly as the drugs hit home and people either passed out or started fights or tried to copulate. Such fun.

That’s brilliant! I don’t think Donald would be waving anything-he’d just stand there and do that stupid fist pump thing. But with or without psychedelics, it’s going to get very ugly when the egos clash and personality disorders collide and the inevitable infighting begins.

Or Trump would stand there with his tiny hands clenched trying rock back and forth to the music but of course missing the beat. Couldn’t we make a short video of this? There are enough pieces of videos we could slice together to the music and put it on FB. I bet we could win an award. Oh yeah and add Elon Mush (that was a typo but I liked it so well I left it) jumping up and down with his belly flopping to the music.
Just looked up what caused inflation. Turns out it was the Fed. Led by Jerome Powell appointed by Trump. Too bad Biden left him in place.
