Post-Election Thoughts, Part 2

Hanging On By A Threat

November 17, 2024

I'm out of ENDITIOL, someone get the Chief

Our continuing coverage of the carnage returns with more of the shame. Il Douche is still busy figuring out who the worst people in the world are so he can bring them into his democracy-ending administration. And many Americans are still trying to wrap their heads around the fact that a majority of those who showed up at the polls to vote for president have their heads wrapped in tin foil.

Well, it could have been worse. At least we (and by we I mean the great mass of slobbering assholes who voted to make America part of the USSR again) didn’t elect a mass murderer…oops, forgot about Trump letting tens-of-thousands of us die during COVID. Well, at least we didn’t elect a serial rapist…oops, we kinda did that. It’s not like we elected another white guy who despite inexorable, relentless evidence to the contrary insists the already-in-progress climate crisis is a hoax…oops, wrong again; does he think the Earth is flat? I don’t recall anyone ever asking him.  Well thank goodness we didn’t elect a lifelong criminal who has spent his entire life ripping people off with grift after fake charity after grift after fake university after grift…oops again. But at least we didn’t elect a dementia-ridden, toxic narcissist with nothing more than a lizard brain and sociopathic, fascist dreams of world domination…oh, crap, what the fuck have we (see above parenthetical quip) done?

This is how the rest of the world sees Trump…including Putin

Get ready for Trump ordering the military to nuke every windmill from the Atlantic to the Pacific.

The pundits are caterwauling about Harris not addressing this issue or that issue or this demographic or that demographic during the campaign. What the fuck did Trump talk about? Hannibal Lecter having you for dinner. Sharks v. Electrocution. Windmills cause cancer. Toilet flushing. How well he gets along with murderous asshole dictators. How stupid everyone else is. Revenge. Doing the Thorazine shuffle for 40 minutes in front of an audience so he could avoid answering questions because his brain was melting. Or simulating oral sex with a microphone stand. These are the issues America wants addressed.

Why didn’t Harris think of that?

So, our best days are behind us…and they’re preparing to kick us in the ass…to infinity and beyond.

DEMOCRACY CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS DEPARTMENT

That’s right folks. Countless morons are having bozo’s remorse. Googe searches for “Can I change my vote?” went through the roof in the states Trump won.

As reported by Heather Cox Richardson

At the same time, a new study out today from Data for Progress showed that people who paid “a great deal” of attention to political news voted for Vice President Kamala Harris +6, while those who paid “none at all” went +19 for Trump.

Yup. Diaper Don won the shit-for-brains vote hands down. Trump is now (most likely) a one-term president, and America just might be a one-term country.

Now, Trump is once again “joking” about getting a third term. He told his new House majority, “I suspect I won’t be running again unless you say, ‘He’s so good we’ve got to figure something else out.” Make no mistake; these are marching orders, or as one zombie Rep. Troy Nehls from Texass put it, “I f Donald Trump says jump three feet high and scratch your head, we all jump three feet high and scratch our heads. That’s it…Donald Trump is never wrong. Think about it, he’s never wrong.”

Buckle up. There is going to be severe turbulence. Keep your hair-sick bag handy.

R.E.M. - It's The End Of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)

Personally, I don’t feel all that fine.

I. Mangrey still sick and dizzy after all these days.
