Big Mac Attack

Maybe you can help me out here.  I need to figure out a way to get on Trump’s shit list.  This is a real bucket list item, it’s right up there with being a rock star.  I can’t do monetary compensation, but I’d give my eye teeth to make that list.  Imagine that, being a public enemy of public enemy #1.  I know what you are all thinking.  Yeah, I keep giving him a platform, but I’m just following the lead of all these other publications.  Take today’s top headline (besides the BBC’s 24/7 news coverage about the demise of a rich royal prince). This top news headline from Politico Magazine is something that news journalists die for:  “Dumb Son of a Bitch: Trump Rips McConnell at Mar-a-Lago.”  What needs clarification here is that Trump was at Mar-a-Lago when he said that, but McConnell wasn’t.  Now that’s what I’m talking about.  To be able to get that kind of attention from that malignant maggot and have him spew those kinds of words in my direction.  Whoa, just think of the headlines, “Sullie Pisses Off Past President,” “Trump Puts Price On Sullie’s Head,” “Local Boy Does Good.”  Just think of all the jealous correspondents out their reeking with envy.  Are we supposed to feel bad for “Big Mac” or, at least, empathize?  No, of course not.  After all, they deserve each other.  Only the Republican Party is capable of this dreaded malingering diatribe on a daily basis, whilst the Dems are doing the day to day get your hands dirty over running the country.  It’s really hard for me to write about the Dems, simply because they are not entertaining.  They are prepared to roll up their sleeves and get their fingernails dirty.  The “Pubs” are too busy spitting on each other to be involved with such trite matters.

Trump rambled on in desultory diatribe for 50 minutes or so lambasting all sorts of folks.  Big Mac wasn’t the only butt of his attack, he also denigrated his wife, former Transportation Secretary, Elaine Chao for resigning after the January 6th insurrection.  In reality, they were all ballast leaving a sinking ship.  They weren’t the only targets of his scathing wrath.  He hit on former V.P. Mike Pence, Alaskan Senator Lisa Murkowski and Dr. Fauci whom, he stated, is full of crap.  I’d give my eye teeth AND a pinkie to be full of crap like that.  Hey, maybe I’m going about this all wrong.  What I should do is talk to one of these daily targets and switch places.  I can become an overnight sought after sensation and be hero worshiped and whoever I switch with can take the unbeaten path of quiet solitude writing off the grid articles whilst competing for a Pulitzer.  Sounds like a win/win situation for one of them.  If I had a choice, I’d trade with the honorable Dr. Fauci.  Easy choice since the other 2 are Republicans, although, I do admire the esteemed Senator from Alaska, she swims against the tide.

So what does this latest outburst mean?  On the surface, it’s nothing that we haven’t heard 1,687 times before, but below the surface, I have to believe what the article in Politico Magazine stated that some of that Republican leadership is concerned.  Trump’s fiery rhetoric will only divide the Republican Party more than it already is.  As for me, great!  Let him rave on so the world can see him to be mad.  Divide and conquer!  “Trumpty Dumpty saturated in gall, Trumpty Dumpty had a great fall, all the MAGA’s and all the yes men, left Trumpty Dumpty to serve 5 to 10!”  I’d give my eye teeth a pinkie plus a toenail for that!  Stay tuned…..!

The McGrinch That Stole Your Stimulus

I disagreed with my wife just now, something that I never do, since the repercussions are quite disturbing.  Here’s what went down.  She stated that Mitch McConnell can’t stoop any lower into the depravity he wallows in.  I stood tall, took a deep breath, looked her right in the eye and spewed out “Yes he can!”  It was a moment frozen in time and then she smiled.   No systematic repercussions followed.  Whew!  Now, as a politician, he has a certain inalienable right to say one thing and mean another, or to talk out of two sides of his mouth, but Mitcheroo, has the extraneous ability to talk out of two faces.  Unfortunately, those two faces resemble both Scrooge and The Grinch.  Isn’t it easy for someone with a net worth of $22,200,000 to stand at a podium in the hallowed halls of Congress and object to raising the stimulus check amount from $600.00 to $2,000.00?  Then there’s Pat Toomey, R-Pennsylvania, who said there are too many citize...

Uncommon Failure

Okay, I’ll let you all be the judge and jury of the following statement that I came across that was buried in the dark corners of the internet where I usually find my strange and highly unusual articles of confoundation.  This is a Los Angeles Times letter to the editor ( https://www.latimes.com/opinion/story/2021-04-12/huntington-beach-ku-klux-klan ) about the “burb” of Huntington Beach.  Headline: “Common ground with the Ku Klux Klan?  Huntington Beach has a problem.”  The letter starts off with, “As Huntington Beach was preparing for a Ku Klux Klan rally and, in response, a Black Lives Matter counter protest, police department spokesman Lt. Brian Smith said,” now here’s the kicker, “We hope that they can utilize events like this as a means to find the common ground and work together for the common goal.”  ???  I thought I would substitute the usual WTF that usually follows an incredulous statement like that with question marks.  I never pass up the ...

The New Cult

Past cult leaders the likes of Sun Myung Moon, David Koresh and Jim Jones, exemplary role models for “Moonies”, “Davidians” and “Peoples Templers” are said to have had a charismatic  gift of gab and were able to ensnarl a whole slew of followers into their realm.  They, of course, have since passed into the great beyond.  Moon was 92 when he died of pneumonia, Korish was 33 when he and his zealots died with guns blazing and Jones 47, died with his lemmings from a bad dose of kool-aid.  There was a rumor going around that his last words were, “Hey, did someone spike this stuff!”   Like Stalin, Hitler and Atilla the Hun, these folks had the innate ability to sway the masses.  To this day, I still can’t figure out how.  I was more enamored with garden slugs than those “coots.”  Nowadays, we have a new malady in our midst, an anomaly if you will, who not only doesn’t have a gift of gab, but cannot even enunciate words correctly, uses alternative facts...
