What a mess

texxgadgetTonights debate was everythng I expected.
President Tweety Bird talked over everyone including the moderator.
I do not understand why they dont just cut the mike when someones time expires.
Every year it gets worse, and they should be on stage in soundproof booths and when your time runs out,
the mike in your booth dies and the spotlight on you goes out.
Being unwilling to do som obviously those staging the debates are complicit with the poor behaviour.
My life continues circling the drain.
I guess, Im curious enough to stick around maybe for the innauguration.
Unfortunately, that requires surviving christmas.
As disappointing as the Ginsburg debacle has become, the GOP is going to shoot themselves in the foot.
This wound will hurt them for years to come.
I posted a rant from an unusually articulate Trump supporter.
I was relieved that I wasnt pillories for it, but was disappointed by the reaction I DID get for it.
I am a firm believe in the "Keep your feiends close, but your enemies closer"
I also believe that everyone should keep a copuple devils advocates nearby,
something that neither Trump NOR Clinton were willing to do.
The lack of a devils advocate contributed to Clintons political losses in 2016 and during her State Dept years.
The disappointing reaction I got on that repost, indicated that they completely missed the point.
I was not expecting anyone to agree with it, and was relieved that no one did.
My point was that you should understand where the other guys is coming from, even if you dont agree with it.
When your reaction is "Gawd what an asshole" you are no better than that person you disagree with.
I was saddened by the fact that nobody felt the need to understand WHY they were being such a cretin.
For those who really desire retribution against Trump, I point to the NY Times revelation of the tax returns.
For a guy like that, there are 2 outcomes that will do more to him than a good physical beating.
One is being led off in handcuffs in a public "perp walk" and the other is having his whole empire collapse.
Weve been WONDERING why he takes his orders from Moscow. Now we know.
Whats really interesting is just how close he is to going broke.
Even if he manages to stay for 4 more years, hes going broke.
Hes been shoring things up with residuals from re runs of apprentice and that cash is running out.
I dont see anyone reviving his TV show. I dont see Faux Noose making him a commentator.
While he can pardion all his cronies, he can only pardon Federal stuff.
Pardons will do nothing against the stuff from the state of NY.
Slowly, they will crush his cronies on state raps, and then they will go after his family, one by one.
And finally (If not reelected this year) Late 2023, they will close in on him.
Meanwhile. the Word TRUMP will become toxic, with people chipping the name off every building he has as
they one by one pass into receivership.
Karma is gonna get this guy.... eventually.
I believe Colleen has an expression about karma running over someones dogma.
If he manages to somehow egt this thing thrown to the kangaroo err I mean... supreme court,
he WONT be able to get a 3rd term.
The GOP is going to lose both houses, he wont be able to rewrite the constitution and in the end,
the military will wheel him out of the whitehouse in a desk chair with guns drawn.
The big problem is his stacking of the supreme court.
We will be stuck with it for a while until conservatives start to croak.
One option is to add justices to the bench,
but that will set precedent for the other side to do it again to regain their advantage.
Unfortunately, the best way is to suffer through it until a couple of the conservatives die off or retire.
The GOP has made such a hash of things, the dems may hold the power long enough to actually fix the balance.
After this, I just dont see the GOP recovering from this mess.
If the electoral college ties, it goes to the hosue.
The house votes for president and senate votes for the veep.
The way the house works is normally the individual reps vote and in that case the Dems are in control.
In the case of the presidential vote in case of electoral tie, the vote is via state so if the number of GOP reps in a state outnumber the Dem reps in that state, the state votes GOP.
In other words the House could vote GOP despite being under Dem control.
If the Dems get enough of the Senate, it is actually possible to end up with Trump & Harris next year.
A true nightmare for Trump.
Interestingly enough, Trump could be elected, the GOP could lose the Senate,
and then we will have another impeachment that WILL result in a removal.
While everyone is depressed about the Supreme Court, they are forgetting that this could be the most exciting election in history.
There is soo much disinformation flying abaout, I cant make any precitions, other than CHAOS.
Maybe next post, Ill post about the water system at Sharons place in Willits.
