Okay. Two Things:
There are headlines saying Trump took in $7.1 Million after his mug shot was released.
People believe that? Look, has the orange one ever told the truth? Case closed. It could be higher or lower, I don’t know, but I doubt if he said it that it is true. Well, maybe someone on the staff said it and didn’t consult him, then it might be true.
My question is why weren’t we ready with a big merch response to drain money from his fervent supporters? Call it something innocuous like “The Campaign to Again Make America Great,” or something like that. (AMAG – not bad.)
What I was wondering was why haven’t we seen Pez dispensers with the heads of Donald and Rudy on them? “Each time you pop the top a small replica of the voter box like the ones used in Georgia is dispensed. Suck on That!”
Or why haven’t we seen bobble head dolls of all the co-conspirators?
They could be put in a three tier rack so you can bang the edge and all the heads start to wiggle.
“Mix and Match. Put the most guilty on the top row or the middle, you decide.”
You could have two sets: the before the mug shot bobble head and the mug shot one.
Speaking of stupid, John Eastman went on Fox News and admitted to a crime. I’m not a lawyer, but if you are under indictment for a crime, I don’t think it’s a good idea to go on TV and admit to that crime. Just sayin’
Oh, BTW, the fig report for August was off. It was actually 66 pounds, not 56. There was a second page to be added to the calculation. Now with the eight pounds from September, so far, we are at 74 pounds. Far exceeding my prediction of 60 pounds.
I keep looking at Trump and wondering if we are going to see the buzz cut video when he goes to jail.
If…
And Rudy has been told to pay up. He says he’s broke. But hey. So far the judge in the election worker case has told Rudy to pay $90K in legal fees that the other side has racked up. The judge got tired of Rudy playing games with the court proceedings and said enough. Pay up. We are still waiting for the damages part. Poor Rudy, “Would you like a ginger mint?” Dispensed from your bobble-head likeness? BTW I’m thinking of some great other merch item – a USB drive that looks like a ginger mint. And a ginger mint that looks like a USB drive. Clever huh? Maybe, one of each kind in a likeness of Rudy.
What we are all trying to figure out is “What happened?” To Rudy.
I heard a great little piece on Mark Meadows. It said that Trump has always managed to find people who are willing to be compliant. There ya go. We need a bobblehead for Mark that also bends at the knee – either to genuflect or ..
Fani has said she wants to give all the co-conspirators a speedy trial. Donald says his team needs more time. I think the defense’s reason to the court is, “We read slow.” (And grammar ain’t 2 gud either.”)
Speaking of Fani, Jimmy gee-whiz Jordan is off on another fishing trip wanting to know what her communication with Jack Smith has been. I’ll tell you what I think. In fact, I’ll show ya Jimmy all the communication she has had. Here ya go:
What? You didn’t see any? Yeah, right. She has no reason to communicate with him. You putz.
She might have to communicate with Jack so they arrange court dates that don’t overlap. Maybe, not. why not have Trump in court at two different locations and then find him in contempt for the courtroom he didn’t show up in?
Is it too late to name Jordan as part of the conspiracy?
Hey, guess what? A Democrat has introduced legislation to specifically exempt people held in captivity by a foreign government to not be charged penalties for not paying their taxes to the IRS. Apparently, this is based on a real case. A person was in jail for two years in Iran or somewhere, finally gets out, and comes home to thousands of dollars in fines for not paying their taxes. This is like Putin claiming his political opponent was in jail because he didn’t check in with the Russian authorities while unconscious in Germany while seeking treatment for the poison Putin had given him.
Oh and I heard a little bit of economic news – another positive jobs report. One reporter even posited the question, “Is it safe to say there is no coming recession?” OMG! What? In the face of overwhelming positive economic news the big money guys aren’t making their nut and want to warn about dire things to come if they don’t get their way.
In other economic news – Taylor Swift announced a movie of her ERAS Tour that will come out October 13th. Boy did that piss off the movie execs. See, she went to the distribution folks, ie the middle men, and asked them to distribute it. They said sure but not before next year or the year after. See we know what is best for us. So old Taylor’s family negotiated directly with the movie houses. Did it quietly and then announced. The execs decided to move the date of the release of “The Exorcist” to another time. Bummer. They wanted Friday the 13th? Get it?
Why do we need a redo of The Exorcist? I mean wasn’t one head twisting, green vomiting movie enough?
Did you see the overhead shot of Tay Tay’s Mexico City concert? Wow.
Speaking of drones – Ukraine has two new ones on the battlefield. One is made out of cardboard, making it hard for radar to detect. They’ve been blowing up Russian stuff in Crimea with them. And they’ve got a bigger drone that can do even more damage. I think, the U.S. is now sending missiles to Ukraine called “ATTACK ‘EMS” (okay that’s not how the military guys spell it, but that’s what I hear when they say it.) These missiles have a longer range and can start knocking out stuff deeper in Russian territory.
Jimmy Buffett died. What a guy. One song made him a billionaire. Pretty cool. BTW Cheeseburgers in Paradise exists. I’ve been there. It’s in a corner of a palm covered courtyard. Rastafarian guys with their afros in knitted red, yellow, green hats ask you, “You want salad on that man?” That means: lettuce, tomato, and mayonnaise. After placing your order you go to another counter and get a beer. You’re in the islands so nothing is cheap. Twenty years ago when I was there (Yikes maybe 30!?) a beer was $4.50 or $5 for a Heineken. The burgers were like $7.50 or eight bucks. That was a lot, but boy did it taste good.
If you’re going to waste away it’s not a bad place to do it. Better than where Rudy and Donnie might be going.
Or waste away in Z-What (Zihuatanejo) in Mexico, where I watched John Elway and the Broncos in a play-off game. Sand between my toes, cold beer in hand, big TV, palm covered open air bar. Yeah.
Or the Kona coast of Hawaii’s big island. Second floor bar, open air, reading “The Curse of Lono” and watching two very fluffy young girls trying to rent tiny motor bikes, which all but disappeared below their exuberant overflowing flesh. Then they’d give the bikes a little bit of gas. It would jump forward and they’d put their feet out while delightfully screaming, “I can’t drive!” The skinny little guy renting the bikes ran behind each one of them trying to cajole them to learn enough to drive the things off his grass strip. He didn’t have any other customers – poor bastard.
- The backlit item to my left in the photo, your right, is a Naga. It’s a five or seven headed stone statue that guards the Temple of Banteay Srei. We were there in 2015 just as the sun rose. We wanted to beat the many tourist coaches that would be there later. when I returned just after Covid the parking lot was empty at ten in the morning.
