Thought For The Day – That Sinking Feeling

The Good Ship Donny Flop

September 28, 2026

In 1974, with the writing not just on the wall but etched into the wall, like Donald “Death-To-America” Trump is planning to do to the façade of the Kennedy Center. The message was clear. If Richard Nixon did not disappear, and fast, the Republican Party would lose seats all over Congress. To avoid that, Republican leaders Barry Goldwater (no liberal he) and Hugh Scott made Tricky Dick an offer he couldn’t refuse: get the fuck out right now or be impeached and convicted thereof.

It is unrefusable, non-refundable offer time for Deathbed Donny. Only one problem. As you may remember, and may have seen in these pages a hundred or so times, Nixon bailed out on August 8-9, 1974, well before the midterm elections of that year. You may also be aware that we are in final days of September with the current midterms only 36 days away. And lastly, you may also be aware that Donald Fucking Trump is still president and has no plans to remove himself from the public eye, like an errant fishhook requiring surgical intervention, antibiotics and an eye patch, if not total death of the eye.

The S.S. Trumptanic has already made contact with the proverbial iceberg (which is actually Trump himself, but that kind of ruins the metaphor, so pretend I never brought it up). It is already going down with no hope of stopping. Voters and candidates alike from the Fascist/Trump/Epstein/Sedition Party are abandoning ship in lemming-like fashion. And what is Daddy Dumbest* doing? He’s running around telling his peeps to pretend he is on the ballot. Apparently, stupidity loves company.

This has been your Paying Attention™ Thought For The Day.
