Brace Yourselves for the Final Five

A vote for Donald Trump in 2016 was merely a lack of
 information and context.

A vote for Donald Trump in 2020 is simply a lack of
character and intellect.

THE GOP THEN:
"Four score and seven years ago, our fathers brought forth upon this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal."

THE GOP NOW:
"Fair scare and starving yours again, our fur feather's bent first upon incontinence, a known notion, deceived in Librium, and desecrated to the prostitution that all mine were cremated awful."

Branson and Trump

We have five months and ten days left until this nightmare of an administration is mercifully behind us. What is beyond certainty is that Donald Trump is a sore loser. The truth of the matter is that the man has been a loser most of his miserable life; that is why the disgusting imbecile is so chronically grumpy. His smile is more akin to a sneer than anything else. He once told Virgin CEO Richard Branson that he loves nothing more than getting even with people who have crossed him. Between Election Day 2020 and Inauguration Day 2021, the soon-to-be former president will have two months, two weeks and three days to "get even" with the American people for banishing him from the White House. That will be the time to be on your toes, folks. The damage he will attempt in that period could very well be long lasting. Hang on.

The interview with Jonathon Swann of Axios last week was more than enough proof we need to figure out that Donald Trump is bat-shit crazy (and if you have not seen that interview yet there will be a link to it attached to the bottom of this piece). Someone remarked that it was previously thought that the interview Trump did with Chris Wallace on Fox the previous week was the bottom of the barrel, that he would never top that one in terms of sheer idiocy and incompetence. His advisors should inform him that, for the time being, it might be wise for the silly bastard to stay the hell away from the media. Just a thought. 

We need to get the vote out this year more than any year since the election of 1932. That was the year Franklin D. Roosevelt was sent to the White House by an exasperated and frightened electorate. Had Herbert Hoover been reelected at that moment, this country would have been finished. 2020 is also an existential election. In 1932 African Americans were being denied the right to vote only in the old confederacy. In 2020, that old Jim Crow practice seems to have gone nationwide. There is a massive campaign of election fraud underway at this moment. GOP operatives in states across the nation will do everything humanly possible to steal this election by sending this unhinged nincompoop back for another four years to do as much damage as he can at the behest of Vladimir Putin. Forgive me for having to point this out, but this is not the way it was supposed to be. I'm just sayin'.

SUGGESTED VIEWING:

Here is the train-wreck of an interview that Trump did on HBO on the Axios program. This must be seen to be believed.

Wasn't this a neat idea? I'm sorry, I'll stop.
