They
Call It Unity (Think They Meant Untidy)
In
case you were smart enough to miss Trump’s unhinged, hateful, incoherent acceptance
screech at his party’s nominating/coronation convention, it was not, as many
useful idiots in the media predicted (for approximately the millionth time) a
new, pivoting Trump. Too many highly paid talking heads kvelled that Donny Bonespurs was a
changed man after his brush with being barely injured. They said he was
humbled, kinder, gentler, more circumspect. Bullfuckingshit.
We do know for sure that the Trump/Vance ticket and the Fascist/Trump Party writ large is (pretending to be) running against everything they actually stand for. They are running against Trump’s record, their own virulent anti-abortion policy (Vance removed the “End Abortion” page from his website), their stance on guns and of course their christofascist plan to unmake America – Project 2025. There was no mention of abortion, gun rights or Project 2025 – though the particulars of it oozed out of every pore of the party’s otherwise policy-free platform – during their recent circus/convention in Milwaukee.
The
Fascist/Trump Party claimed they were bringing a message of unity.
Unity-Or-Else is not unity. Disaster J. Trump did his best at the outset of his
“acceptance” screech. Then the full moon rose and the wereweasel emerged as Trump reverted back to his usual demented,
delusional, vicious, lying beast form. He dutifully read what was written for
him for a while, and then he went full-Trump, rambling on for more than 90 fucking
minutes*, putting many to sleep, causing home viewers to change the channel. It
was not a new Trump after all. It was just more of the shame.
Now
What?
Despite
all of that it is difficult to decide whether or not Joe Biden needs to bow out
of the presidential contest against someone who should not even be allowed to
run for the office. Calls for the 46th president are growing louder
and coming from increasingly influential quarters within the Democratic Party,
though it is mostly the conservaDems making most of the stupid noises demanding
Biden drop out. Still, many believe that Biden has stepped in too much
political shit, despite probably going into the books policy-wise as the best
president for everyday Americans since LBJ (who was certainly no liberal lion,
but hey, you take what you can get). Now Biden has COVID and must take time
that he does not have, off from campaigning. This, while his detractors
continue pummeling him, and if they are not careful, themselves.
If
Biden does indeed step aside, there is really only one person who can step into
his candidacy.
The
only people to have brought Trump to justice in any meaningful (barely) way
are women. E. Jean Carroll took Trump to the cleaners (Spoiler Alert: he’s still
filthy) to the tune of three-quarters-of-a-billion dollars, and a judge
insisting that what Trump did to Carroll was rape. Letitia James had Trump’s license to do business in New York State
revoked and lightened his wallet by $355 million after winning a civil fraud
case against Trump. Stormy Daniels stood her ground and led to Trump being convicted of 34 fucking felonies.
For
the moment at least, Tanya Chutkin and Fani Willis have not played their final
hands and remain in the game. They continue to insist that Trump deserves his
day in court to clear his good name…just kidding, they want to bring Maxwell’s
fucking hammer down upon his horribly dyed head for the crimes we all saw and
heard him commit.
Kamala
Harris, besides being the only person who can have immediate and total access
to Biden’s war chest, happens to be a woman. I’m not a big Harris fan by any
means, but she is no stranger to kicking ass. And she has bigger balls than
decrepit Old Man Trump.
Also
not to be ignored is the fact that Democrats survive in no small part, as does
any semblance of life, liberty and/or the pursuit of happiness in this country,
on the backs of Black women. Democrats, if you force Biden to withdraw, skip
over Kamala Harris at your peril.
All
that being said, anybody or anything should be able to defeat a fascistic,
toxic narcissist and convicted felon whose brain is melting, and whose soul
rotted away in the womb. If this proves untrue...

mine) the most pathetically stupid, boring and deranged acceptance speech of
