Thoughts for the Day 20240126

-

  •  With all the civil and criminal judgments against D. Trump
    • Totaling perhaps over 500 million USD
      • I am grimly delighted and eagerly anticipating
        • Trump declaring bankruptcy to
          • avoid paying these civil and criminal fines
          • play the martyr
    • I'm waiting for legal/professional sanctions 
      • against A. Habba
        • for her actions in the state and federal courts
          • disgraceful
          • contemptuous
    • Will D. Trump flee the country?
      • Every time he's losing a court case he then
        • runs as fast as his little feet can take him
        • complains with bitter vitriol
          • that he's the victim
        • extols his followers to violence
    • And there are more civil and criminal cases to come
      • far surpassing R. Reagan for political corruption
  • Green Eagle on D. Trump's "win" in New Hampshire
    • 'So, DeSantis dropped out.  
      • My guess at that point was that Trump and Haley would pretty much split DeSantis' 22 points, 
        • giving each 11 points, 
          • so the final result of the New Hampshire race should have been something like this: 
            • Haley: 33 points; 
            • Trump 63 points.  
    • Instead, 
      • of course, 
        • Haley got 44 points in New Hampshire, 
        • and Trump only managed to weakly pick off 2 points from DeSantis's voters, 
          • coming in around 54 points.
      • To my mind, 
        • this is a colossal failure of momentum.  
      • It is not that this violent man and the hate-filled base that supports him could barely bully his own party's voters into giving him more than a bare majority, 
        • but that, as I think is obvious, 
          • something has gone seriously wrong with his march to the White House.'

But with Congress — every time they make a joke it's a law. And every time they make a law it's a joke.  --Will Rogers, quoted in P. J. O'Brien, Will Rogers, Ambassador of Good Will, Prince of Wit and Wisdom, 1935, ch. 9, pp. 156–57

Fractionate

Conservatives now have irresponsible authority for every aspect of our lives This the worst thing that could happen to conservatives. Being in such power,  the power of life and death The GOP will shatter into factions Indeed, the GOP has already done so While drooling in anticipation The American people will suffer  from the fallout of GOP faction fights Sowing Death Destruction Misery Chaos Democrats have tried to prevent this horrific implosion Strove to demonstrate the responsible exercise of Power Authority The GOP will not go down alone Drowning in corruption Desperately trying to pretend All they are doing is Moral Righteous The GOP MAGA-Republicans will drag us all--ALL-- Down into the Hell of rapacious unfettered Capitalism Where everything--all-- Are for sale for the right price The price for so many of us will be our souls--our Our aspirations Our hopes Our dreams Our desires For a better world

    1. Now how did we get here?         A) JD Vance tells Donald Trump,              1) “Don't—                  a) Don't do this boss!                      (1) Don't release them all—                          (a) Not the most violent ones.                          (b) Not the ones that attack law enforcement!              2) We're the Republican Party—                  a) We're supposed to protect the blue!             3) Remember all those blue American flags?                 a) Protect the blue, yeah.            ...
