You Can't Make This Stuff Up...or Can You

They Don't Call Me Nostradamus For Nothing
(To be honest, no one actually calls me Nostradamus.)


September 25, 2019

Most of you are probably aware that yesterday, September 24, 2019, is being heralded as a historic day - the day Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi formally declared that the impeachment of Donald Chrump was underway.  It was a long time coming, but yesterday it became official.  Millions of people were dancing in the streets of Washington, DC and cities all across the country and most likely, the world, or at least that is what we at Paying Attention are reporting.  For a moment there, I will admit to being a little worried that the Spleen from Queens was poised to outsmart everyone by having a trick up his sleeve, but there was no trick, not even one of his tiny little hands.  It turned out to be his badly colored, bloated head, and it was not up his sleeve, if you get my drift.  No friends, by most accounts this is considerably worse than we thought it was, and Team Chrump seems to be flailing in the breeze. 

But that is not why I brought you all here today... 
As most of you are very unlikely to remember, Paying Attention has for several years published its end-of-the-year Predictions, Prophecies, Prognostications, Projections and Piffle for the year to come.  After yesterday's big news, something told me to have a look at our predictions for 2019.  We thought you might be interested in seeing what we served up last December.  While the final nail has yet be hammered in completely, we still felt that perhaps just a tiny, little, Chrump-hand-sized pat on the back might be warranted for at least one of last year's predictions.

September 24, 2019 – Happy Impeachment Day

Democrats tried very hard to avoid bringing charges of impeachment against un-prezident Donald J. Chrump.  They worked hard to finally get universal health care over the hump.  They fought tooth and nail to get funding for infrastructure and voting security.  Ultimately, the continuing crime wave coming out of the White House made it necessary for Congress to launch several hundred investigations into the Chrump Crime Family, Chrump’s extensive, hostage-like relationship with Russia, repeated episodes of obstruction of justice, endless displays of mental illness, and a variety of miscellaneous infractions and felonies.  They subsequently had no choice but to bring two dozen articles of impeachment against the most criminal person ever to hold the office of President of the United States.  Predictably, Chrump bragged.

The impeachment process is not a quick one.  Vegas odds had Chrump, as usual, caving to the pressure and leaving in the middle of the night before the process can get off the ground.  It turns out the odds-makers had it right.  Soon after the stench of impeachment became overwhelming, the Gingerhead Man disappeared.  All he left behind was the skeletal remains of the United States and another stupid tweet.
 
A passerby caught this photo with his infrared camera:

It will be interesting to see if the Secret Service protects now ex-prezident Chrump.  Ex-presidents enjoy Secret Service protection for 10 years after leaving office.  But, not necessarily if they are impeached or resign.  While Chrump was able to avoid actual impeachment by sneaking away, he will still face criminal charges for almost a dozen felonies.
