Afghanistan, Republican Bullshit and COVID

 

There is a mess of things I need to get off my chest and I'll start with the mess in Afghanistan. The Republican party and the media, both Left and Right leaning outlets have been shitting all over President Biden for going through with Pulling U.S. forces out of that hellhole, even while they all have said we should get out of there. 

It's time to speak some truth about this shit people. The GOP and many Democrats fully Supported President Bush sending out Troops in there 20 years ago, with no real plan of ending our time there. President Obama talked of wanting to get out but got loads of pressure from Republicans and lobbyists to stay, as well as not having a solid plan to get out. That asshole President Trump, went ahead and released 5000 Taliban prisoners and gave them a seat at the head of the table to negotiate the U.S. military withdrawal, giving them a watered-down, candy-coated treaty that basically said, don't shoot our guys and we'll leave. Then left it in the desk for President Biden to deal with, while bragging about the deal he worked with the Taliban and praising them and Republicans in Congress and Right Wing news twats like Fox News fully supported him. Now the GOP and their networks are trashing Biden for working with the Taliban and this garbage deal they all supported.

By the way, never forget the Taliban was born from the Mujahideen, who were guerilla fighters fully funded and armed by the United States to fight Russia from 1979-1989. We loved them so much Hollywood made a Rambo movie where he fought alongside the Mujahideen, and the original ending, dedicated the film to them.

Back to present day...

This week while evacuating over 100,000 people, our Military suffered a horrible loss of 13 lives. The Right used this to attack Biden and called for accountability, which he in a press conference, without hesitation took responsibility for the lives lost. Something Commanders in Chief do. Well, most do. Trump didn't while he was in office and 63 servicemembers died in Afghanistan, nor did grandstanding jackasses in the GOP, call for him to resign or be impeached over it, like they are now. Dickhead, JOSH HAWLEY this week was one of them, suddenly against our withdrawal from Afghanistan. I guess he for got when he tweeted at Biden in April that we should pull-out immediately. Something his father should have done! 

We also have had many Republicans and media members screaming how we need to help the Afghan people and get these refugees out of there, while in the same statement or tweet like Ted Cruz did, say how we shouldn't let them come here. Nothing like a son of a refugee telling refugees to fuck off! 

And yes, after losing 13 U.S. servicemembers, suddenly, many Republicans wanted us to stay there, and send more troops there. They're so angry about the lives lost, they want to risk more lives. For Fuck's sake, Kevin McCarthy in a press conference Friday changed his mind 4 times on whether we should have troops in Afghanistan permanently or not.

I find it incredibly hollow that so many in the media and the GOP said little to nothing about Afghanistan over the last 20 years, as well as saying nothing about the 2,372 U.S. Servicemembers who have died in Afghanistan over the last 20 years. The major news networks covered Afghanistan from 2015through 2019 for less that a hour of airtime combined. ABC: 16 minutes. CBS: 25 minutes. NBC: 16 minutes. Now, suddenly after 20 years war, lives lost, military funding and VA funding be held up in the name of playing politics, underpaid troops, now you care. They only care, because war, suffering and controversy boost ratings and poll numbers.

The biggest fact we all should know is there was no winning this thing. History has shown this. Afghanistan is a place of constant civil war. There are 14 religious sects (mostly fanatical) fighting for power and control. If U.S. forces stayed any number of years, they would be at risk. Whenever our forces started leaving a power grab was going to start. All these pundits and politicians have a shitload to say and criticize, but none...NONE of them have offered a real solution or a better plan. They are all just trying to get clicks, likes, and political points. 

Military members, especially those who have been in action or served in Afghanistan, gladly say what you wish, your perspective means a great deal more than some dick in a suit who spend his life in a studio, behind a desk, reading a prompter. Unfortunately the networks don't do much of that. (TRIGGER WARNING): Military guys, don't talk about how you fought or are fighting for my freedom. Have you fought for our security? YES! But the United States military has not fought for our freedom in DECADES. They have been used to fight for the "Country's" political and economic interests. I respect you dearly. You do a job I know I could never do and you are grossly underpaid.

To the COVID section...

What I am going to say next is not to belittle or try to take lightly the military deaths in Afghanistan...A few days ago when a suicide bomber killed 13 servicemembers and over a 100 civilians, that day more Americans died from COVID than all the U.S. military deaths over 20 years in Afghanistan. 900 just in Florida alone. Where is the "Pro-Life" party screaming for the head of GOP governors trying to ban mask mandates. GOP politicians and media figures pushing anti-vaccination bullshit? They pushing people to treat them self with medicine made for farm animals. These dolts are against science and doctors until horse de-wormer gives them the shits and they catch COVID. Suddenly they want a doctor's help. Fuck them, let them die!

I can say that here, I'm not allowed to on social media. These two images got me suspended on social media for "promoting self harm."

Yet they aren't stopping the people who spread anti-vaccination bullshit and anti-mask bullshit and 'go get some horse or goat or cow medicine and you won't get COVID' bullshit. 

I spend too much time on social media and lots of it trying to combat this ignorance that is running wild in this country. It rattles me. It angers me. I had someone (now former friend) private message me about why I get so worked up and post so much about it. (they are an anti-masker for kids in school) I had some shit to say.

I'll sum it up like this. Over 635,000 Americans have died from COVID. If that alone doesn't make you take this seriously, I don't know what will. I don't want businesses to shutdown again. Most won't survive it a second major shutdown. I don't want people losing jobs and homes and loved ones. Americans, we love sports and to talk about TEAM. If you can't get onboard with the team to stop the spread of death, I'm done with you. I have a 10 year old daughter, who is not yet eligible to get a COVID vaccine. Which means compared to the rest of our household, she's at the greatest risk of getting it bad. (especially since the Delta variant is hitting kids harder than the original) If my daughter gets COVID, you're all done. I burn this fucking world to the ground. 

I'm not being dramatic. This shit was preventable, but a bunch of ignorant-ass, fucktards, lead by Qanon dipshits and Trump, decided there is no greater freedom in the world than to be inconsiderate, selfish, assholes. The right to get sick and die a horrible death or just merely spread that death is the most important thing to them.

The stories of those who chose to not get vaccinated and fought against vaccines and masks, now dying, do not make me sad. they had plenty of time to get their shit straight and they chose ignorance and a death cult. But their choices are impacting us all now. So I will shame them. And if my child get COVID because of their ignorance...It's over.

One last thing for all you full of shit Republicans and Trumpers...

If Trump was still President today, he wouldn’t have gone to meet the returning U.S. military bodies as Biden did. He would be ignoring the COVID surge and not getting briefings on Afghanistan and a major hurricane, he’d be fucking golfing! 

Sunday Night with Beer and a Blog

 

Today we dropped our oldest daughter off at college. Normally a BIG moment in people's lives and for families. But it didn't have that exact feel that you expect, because like so much in these times it was kind of fucked up. You see, this event was meant for last August, but two weeks before move-in we were informed she would have to do her first year online from home, yet the only money we saved was on her dorm and meal plan. Personally I think some of the tuition should have been kicked back to us as well.

Sadly, fucked is something becoming normalized for us. Her Senior year of high school got fucked by COVID and then going away for her first year of college get fucked by COVID. Now there she is, a second year student feeling like a freshman...with things still fucked by COVID. Still on high alert. Still wearing masks still not getting the full experience.

 I said fucked by COVID, but at this stage things are fucked by COVID mostly because of the ignorant, Trump loving, FOX NEWS watching selfish, brainwashed, fucking assholes! Fucktards that would rather buy fake vaccine cards instead of getting a free vaccine. Cunts who would rather buy cow deworming medicine instead of getting a free vaccine. Dipshits who scream about the evils of vaccines while they have had a lifetime of getting vaccines and never bitched about it until Tucker Carlson and the crazy QAnon lady told them to.

 By the way, all Fox News employees are vaccinated and have to show proof and wear masks at work. They and those jack ass governors in Florida and Texas don't care if you and your kids live or die. These cocksuckers are screaming that mask mandates are "government overreach," yet them making laws banning mask mandates and cutting funding for school districts and staff if they do implement mandates, is somehow not "government overreach." Sorry dickheads, you can't have it both ways!

These fucking people who scream "my body my choice" about wearing a fucking mask, but never gave a damn about anyone else who said "my body my choice." Typical Republican hypocrisy. 'My rights to not wear a mask are important, your reproductive rights aren't.'

These fucking dolts are out here trying to shutdown COVID testing sites and vaccination centers. They are screaming to not allow children to wear masks...Children who cannot get vaccinated yet...And they say God will protect them and save them. These types of religious people are the worst because they cheery-pick what God is good for. They give him credit for creating this and that, damn near everything, themselves included, but somehow, in their uncle fucking mind, their God didn't create smart people and doctors and scientists. 

They'll thank God for when they won that high school football game back in the day and they'll thank God for the food on their table, but their God had nothing to do with science? Odd huh? Since Science helped figure out growing that food...And what, God was all in with the butcher shop and the grocery store and the trucking industry that got everything where it needed to be so you could eat, but God has no hand in the people who create medicine and vaccines. God has nothing to do with the amazing Doctors and Nurses trying to heal people and save lives? 

Okay God will save you people, here's the deal. When you or your spouse get sick or your kid, that you as such a great parent, didn't protect, gets sick to this point pictured above...FUCK YOU! Don't go to the Hospital! Go to church! Call up your God. Ask him why your kid is dying. Ask him to help. 

If you're lucky enough enough to get an answer, you know what he'd say? Hey asshole, I gave you a free vaccine and scientific experts who told you what precautions to take, and instead you bitched, moaned and complained like a bunch of cunts!

This will sum it up a little nicer:

12 years of Catholic school, I came out less religious, but smarter than you Bible thumping fuckstains. What you read maybe 2 Bible verses and thought you knew something...and Stone Cold 3:16 doesn't count!

Josh Hawley is a Criminal, Traitor and Asshole

 

Republican Senator Josh Hawley from Missouri has spoken up and made it clear he has chosen Authoritarianism over Democracy. He has left the Republican Party and is all in with Trumpism. 

Hawley announced he will be objecting to the Electoral College confirmation on January 6th. Hawley feels concerns about election integrity need to be heard. To be clear, the Trump Campaign has lost all the recounts. The Trump Campaign, the GOP, Trump supporters have lost at least 60 court cases contesting the election results. The Supreme Court has throw these nonsensical cases out twice. Judges, the majority of them Republican, have repeatedly blasted the legal teams bringing these cases with no proof or legal standing to them. Republican election officials have also shot down the Trumpers baseless claims. It's all bullshit.

But here's Hawley, a known asshole, who's going to grandstand to try and throw out not only the Electoral College vote, but also the Popular vote. He wants to not count the vote of over 82 million Americans and install a Trump Authoritarian rule...Is it that, or is it just grandstanding to gain Trump supporters to help further his, asshole, political career?

I mentioned Hawley being a known asshole. Here's a taste. I wrote this back in July about Hawley in my MONDAY MOANING POST:

"Republican Senator from Missouri, Josh Hawley wrote a letter to the NBA Commissioner criticizing the league for allowing players to wear messages that promote social justice on their jerseys this summer but not allow messages that support law enforcement or are critical of China’s Communist Party....Fuck this guy...Hawley is trying to play the Fox News card of "Shut up and Dribble"...

But then he tweets an image of an email he got from ESPN's #1 basketball reporter, Adrian Wojnarowski...Woj, as he is known, (based off my Twitter research, because I could give two shits about basketball) called out Hawley for his bullshit, and I'll go ahead and say it, ignorant, racist view on shit...Plus Woj acting like he was writing on my blog as he told Hawley to "Fuck Off!"

Just to be clear, Hawley less then a month ago bitched about the evil "cancel culture" but here he is trying to cancel someone for saying what they think...

For real...This guy who is crying that a reporter told him to "fuck off," is a Senator from a state who has a mayor that doxxed Black Lives Matter/Defund the Police protesters...You fuckers seem to be the Anti-American ones...

As for Hawley's state of Missouri, that doesn't even have a fucking NBA team, their COVID cases have doubled in the last month...Maybe start worrying about the people your represent...You don't represent any NBA player...

Oh yeah...Senator Josh Hawley, Fuck off, you fucking fuck!"

But it doesn't end there. Hawley says he's concerned about the integrity of the election. Well in PA we found 3 cases of voter fraud and all were Trump voters. I believe Texas Lt. Governor Dan Patrick owes my Lt. Governor John Fetterman and the people of PA $3 Million. But Republican voter Fraud doesn't end there. Trump and his Press Secretary both screwed up their MAIL IN BALLOTS. Oh, and then there is Josh Hawley. Joshy-boy has committed voter fraud too. Josh registered and voted under his sister's address in Missouri, a residence that he doesn't live at. As a matter of fact he doesn't have a residence in the state he represents, but he built a nice big home in VIRGINIA.

It's clear, Hawley is another one of those GOP members who act like they are Johnny Red, White and Blue, but just act. If he was the patriot he tries to prop himself up to be he wouldn't stabbing Democracy in the back all in the name of Trumpism. He would be standing up against Trumpism, for Democracy. Josh Hawley is a Criminal, a Traitor and an Asshole. 

Josh Hawley, "FUCK OFF!"

Biden's Win Gives Birth to Trumpism

 

I have been waiting to post about the post election bullshit that has been going on. I was hoping to see cooler heads prevail. I was hoping to see people who call themselves leaders, to standup and lead. I have been greatly disappointed. 

I never expected Trump to act like a responsible, decent human being. I did however expect Republican leadership to step up and push him in the direction of civility, fully knowing he'd be faking it. But Republican leadership has not done that. Many have remained quiet as Trump and his band of the worst and dumbest lawyers in the history of law, have spewed ignorant and ridiculous claims of election fraud. Worse are the one who have piled on and tried to help push these claims. ALL of these claims being pushed with no evidence. The Trump campaign and other Republican groups filing cases in courts throughout the country, have lost 40 times and have withdrawn many others because the lawyers know it's bullshit.

This has all lead to many Americans...Millions of Americans believing the the election was rigged, solely because Trump said so. It doesn't seem to matter to them that Trump's DHS and DOJ have said there is no legit fraud, as well as a number of Republican election officials, Governors and Secretaries of State. 

So now we have a frightening large amount of the population that don't trust our election process just because their guy lost. There's something even worse, even more frightening. There is a huge part of the population that agree with Trump, his lawyers and elected officials supporting his lies, that the election results should be thrown out and overturned by the Senate and Supreme Court, giving Trump the win.

Here in Pennsylvania we have this asshole Congressman, Mike Kelly.

This is what happens when Trump and Pence fuck and 9 months later Pence shits out a used car salesman.

Kelly has been pushing the fight to throw out the PA election results. First trying to throw out all Mail-in-ballots, then trying to just throw out mail-in-ballots from Philly and Pittsburgh. Then it was trying to stop the certification. Now he's trying to push to go top the SCOTUS to throw out the certification, throw out the election results (which would include his victory) and have the election victories given to only Trump and Republicans. If you ever wanted to know what a traitor looks like, it's that fucker right above.

Asshole Senator from Texas, Ted Cruz was vocally supporting this along with having the votes thrown out in Wisconsin, Michigan, Georgia, and Arizona. Cruz who hated how Trump behaved while running against him, now is using the Trump playbook. Talking shit on Twitter, spewing lies and misinformation, attacking media, members and fellow politicians, acting in the same uncivilized and disrespectful way Trump does, while ignoring the people of his state are starving and dying. The "Grand Old Party" seems to not want that moral high ground they claim they stand on.

There is a huge fact that Trump and Republicans want you to ignore. They are hoping you don't know and they don't want you to see the facts. In Pennsylvania the election laws/rules were written by and unanimously voted into place by REPUBLICANS. Wisconsin's election process and procedures were built and put in place by REPUBLICANS. Georgia, Arizona, Nevada and Michigan  as well, the election laws/rules/process/procedures were written, voted on, put in place by REPUBLICANS. Now many, FAR TOO MANY of those same Republicans are trying to call foul. I'm no legal expert but they all should be impeached. Hell, I think they all should be tried for treason. 

It doesn't stop there...

Recently pardoned piece of shit Michael Flynn has said Trump should declare martial law, put the military in the streets and invalidate the election, which would make me look brilliant when I wrote, warning that  Trump is a FASCIST. 

All these Johnny Red, White and Blue people who claim to be patriots and talk about our freedom and democracy, are actually saying they're such patriots, that we need to throw democracy out the window. They are willing to instill a dictator. These are the same fucking idiots that scream about people who don't stand for the National Anthem or people who burn the Flag in protest, while they fly the Nazi Flag, Confederate Flag and the Trump flag. If you fly any of those flags, you are the patriot you think you are. You're a traitor and an asshole.

We are also talking about the party and people that claim to be the "Pro-Life" party. Odd since so many of them have been COVID deniers and anti-maskers. Never mind those 270,000 dead Americans.

Now I have heard some outspoken members of the media calling Mitch McConnell and the GOP and so many other Republicans, cowards for not speaking out against Trump and his dolts and not acknowledging the election results...Well, they acknowledge their victories. And let's be real fucking honest here. If Democrats/Liberals/and whoever else pulled off some grand, nationwide scheme to rig the election, we would have damn sure seen to it that McConnell and Lindsey Graham and Kevin McCarthy would have lost in the same type of landslide Trump did. Speaking for myself, I hate those cocksuckers (Lindsey loves the cock!) as much as I hate Trump. 

Back to the original thought, they have been called cowards, "afraid of a mean tweet from Trump." But that thought doesn't make it clear enough. They aren't afraid of the tweet. They are afraid of what follows the tweet. The Trump supports who see the tweet which is their green light from their Cult Leader, #Diaper Don...A green light to attack. These Johnny Patriot, red, white and blue fucktards start with their death threats. They are making death threats to members of their own party. Threatening them for doing their job, defending democracy and our election process. Don't forget these are the same fanatical Trump supporters who plotted to kidnap and kill the Governor of Michigan and her family. the same people that plotted to take control of the Michigan state capitol and livestream daily executions. These aren't patriots, they are terrorists and Trump is the head of the terrorist cell.

For fuck's sake a right-wing pastor, Rick Wiles promoted the killing of Democrats and media members by firing squad...Here's a LINK. I'm sorry, but you don't get to call yourself "Pro-Life" and promote and support the unlawful execution of people you don't agree with. You're just a cunt.

Now there are many people who believe in this fraud shit because of mail-in-ballots. Some don't get how Biden dominated the mail-in-voting. Well, remember your fearless leader Trump told people not to trust voting by mail, so right off the top, fewer Republicans voted by mail. And you dummies all ignored while he spoke of the evils of mail-in-voting, him and his whole crew VOTE BY MAIL. Again, I must point out, that Republicans did very well in this election, while Trump lost. This makes it clear that plenty of Republicans voted for Biden. it also makes me believe many "Independents" and some Democrats voted for Biden but voted for Republicans in down ballot races. It's long past time for the Republican leadership to acknowledge this, it make it clear to the public, as well as Trump.

But it may be too late. The Republican party is attacking itself. Republicans are making death threats to fellow Republicans. As I type this, there are Republicans in Georgia telling Republicans not to vote for those two scumbag Republicans in Georgia's Senate runoffs. A number of us have hoped for a third party that can contend in American politics. I think we are seeing it form right before our eyes and its a party none of us really should want. 

Trumpism

 And the Trumpers, the vocal supporters of Trumpism seem to have no problem with Authoritarianism, which Trump would definitely push towards Fascism. 

While the idea of seeing the Republican party eat itself alive doesn't make me sad, I fear what will come out the other side.

Fuck Your Feelings, Time to Swallow Your Pride

 

For the last four years the Trumper, Republicans, Fox News and Trump have repeatedly pushed the slogan "Fuck Your Feelings." You can buy Trump hats, shirts, signs and flags with the slogan. Yes, they are still available online.

After the 2016 election they loved taunting Clinton supporters and they mocked the shit out of them. In my Facebook memories yesterday it popped up a rant from 4 years ago where I called out the crying and bitching Democrats. They didn't get out the vote, the ran a candidate many people hated, including Democrats like myself. I also called out the fact that 15,000 Americans voted for a dead Gorilla. That and low voter turnout said plenty about how Americans felt about their options in 2016. So I wasn't bothered by the mocking. But as the years went on under Trump, it increased, he continued to build up his base and the key strategy for growing that base was hate, division and racism. "Fuck Your Feelings" and "Make Liberals Cry Again" were chants and battle cries used just as often as "Lock Her Up."

That brings us to 2020. Biden has won the popular vote and the Electoral College with epic numbers. And while the media like to talk about that, we cannot gloss over the fact that those numbers are followed by Trump's large second place numbers. Biden sees this, he realizes this and that is why he keeps talking about coming together, about unity. It's why he said in his speech Saturday night, "Let's see each other again, listen to each other again." He said with passion, "Let's give each other a chance!"

Saturday we saw people celebrating in the streets. We saw Biden behaving like a leader and we saw Trump go golfing. People who were told "Fuck Your Feelings" for 4 years, talked shit, taunted those that had taunted them, or were just happy and expressed relief. What happened? Those on the right that called the left "Snowflakes" protested outside of counting stations in Arizona, Michigan and Pennsylvania. There was a bomb threat in Philly. They screamed to stop counting votes in some places and screamed to keep counting votes in others.

I never thought I would see a day when American citizens would chant and scream to stop counting votes. That is how brain washed Trumpers are. They are willing to throw democratic elections right out the fucking window. Yet if a Democrat spewed the lies and bullshit Trump has about the election, these clowns would storm the place ready to kidnap and kill whoever those Democrats. So why the fuck should I care about their feelings?

The vast majority of Republican leadership has gone along with Trump's baseless lies about mass voter fraud. The talking heads on TV are saying they are just trying to smooth this out and let Trump have time to process his feelings, to accept the election results. FUCK HIS FEELINGS! This isn't little league. Not only is he a grown ass man, (clearly not mentally) but he is the acting President of the United States. We don't have time for feelings. You golfed, had a cry, now grow the fuck up, take your loss and do what is right. Feelings? This mother fucker has never once cared about the feelings of you, me, any Democrats, or for our fallen soldiers that her has referred to as "Losers" and "suckers." He has not cared about the feelings of the families of the 240,000 dead Americans from COVID. He has not cared about the feelings of the overwhelmed and overworked doctors and nurses who have never taken a day of from trying to clean up his COVID mess, which is spiraling out of control again.

Republican leadership, like McConnell, Cruz, that cocksucker Graham...Yeah, we know you love the cock in your mouth Graham! These fuckers keep supporting Trump's lies of voter fraud, yet they completely accept their victories. McConnell and Graham had sound victories in their races...Why the fuck would some grand conspiracy not take you two lying crooks out too? I'll tell you why, because there wasn't on. Plenty of Republicans, maybe some Dems voted for you and Voted for Biden. That's why Biden was the nominee, he was the only Dem (in my opinion) who could pull some solid Republican votes his way.

This happened in on of Trump's idiotic court cases yesterday in PA.

There was no Fraud! 

But wait...

Allegheny County PA has found 1, yes 1 case of “voter fraud.” A woman voted by mail before she died. So apparently if you die before Election Day it doesn’t count. Her vote was cast for Donald Trump! Thank you for getting rid of that poor woman’s vote, I like running up the score! You know why I like running up the score? "FUCK YOUR FEELINGS!" that's why!

Trump's fraud bullshit isn't just being spewed by him and his idiot sons, whore wife and daughter, crooked con-in-law, and GOP dipshits like Cruz, Graham, Rubio and Secretary of State Pompeo, RNC leadership, his blonde bimbo Press Secretary. Half of FOX News has helped fuel this bullshit, along with far-right websites. You see, the far-right doesn't believe in real democracy anymore. They only believe in what they are told to believe and they are very close to slipping up and verbally admitting they are all for an authoritarian, Trump lead government. So, why would a patriotic American like myself give a fuck about their feelings? I don't!

I found myself bashing Megyn Kelly for a couple days as she also spewed Trump's rhetoric, and while doing so scolded people for celebrating and not caring about Trump supporter's feelings. Bitch! Trumpers never cared about anyone else's feelings. FUCK THEIR FEELING! Kelly, you'll remember had no problem begging for everyone to care about her feelings and not care and not Trump's when Trump was mean towards her. And she wanted everyone to not care about Roger Ailes feelings, but hers after we learned he was a pig. Funny, seems like not only did she really like having Ailes, gross, fat, old limp dick pushed in her, but she clearly liked having Trump's orange jizz running out of her wherever. So, Megyn Kelly, 'FUCK YOUR FEELINGS!"

There is no widespread voter fraud. There is no proof of these asshole claims. Multiple Independent reviews have also found these claims to be false. Trump's cases have been repeatedly thrown out of court. The courts don't care about your feelings either.

I find it sad that we have so many of these people that call themselves leaders, but they all act like cunts. It's time fuck your feelings and swallow your pride.

Otherwise you are an enemy of this country.

The Day After

 

It is the day after the election here in the United States and we don't know who won yet. As stressful and annoying that is, it's okay. I want every single person who voted, to have their vote counted, unlike the sitting President who last night said he wanted the counting to stop. 5 Pennsylvania Republicans also filed a lawsuit trying to stop the counting of provisional ballots. I don't understand how a party that always beats it's chest talking about our greatness and how we are example of Democracy for the world, is trying to silence/void people's votes.

I guess it all falls in-line with the Republican HYPOCRISY  I have posted about MULTIPLE  times. I won't put in all the links, just scroll, you'll find them.

There is a something that popped in my head yesterday that I tweeted out and I stand by it. If the Democratic Party would have run Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson for President, he would have won in an epic landslide. The landslide so many of us wanted. That's how fucked up this country is. That's how fucked up politicians are. People don't like or respect them (generally speaking) anymore. We have a "Reality Tv" star/conman as our President, and he would have been smoked by a professional wrestler/actor. This is where we are.

I'm truly baffled by the number of people that voted for Trump. What are they voting for?  This Orange, jackass who has LITERALLY LIED PUBLICLY EVERY SINGLE DAY. This is a man who has supported White Supremacists, Domestic Terrorists, Lied about how bad COVID was going to be. (It's on tape) Continues to lie about how bad COVID is. We are over 230,000 dead Americans. Over 1,000 died yesterday. He had children taken from their parents and locked in cages and now we have over 500 kids who's parents we can't find. So those immigrants/refugees so many of you didn't want here. They're here and your tax dollars are paying for them. So what is it that you are voting for? You voted for a lying, racist, conman, who supports the idea of domestic terrorists kidnapping a Governor. WHY? Please explain why? And you are not allowed to say because of the economy. 1. The economy is shit. 

2. Analysis of economic performance since World War II under Democratic versus Republican presidents shows that the claims that Republicans are better at managing the economy are FALSE. Data has shown that the economy has performed much better during Democratic administrations...Economic growth, job creation and industrial production all have been stronger.

So why? 

Talking heads keep hyping up the highest voter turnout ever and Biden winning the highest popular vote ever. Yeah, so? Idiotically we don't count popular vote. Also, While Biden has gotten the most votes ever, Trump is number two on that list. that's sad and frightening.

Let's talk about Polls. Can we all agree that Polls are stupid. They are religiously wrong. Pollsters don't look at a big enough sample and oh yeah, people fucking lie. Stop listening to Polls. Stop doing Polls because it doesn't matter what media group, news outlet, or independent agency is doing them, they are all bullshit.

 

As for the election process, the stats that came out today that key battleground areas had their postal service processing production slowdown from 95% to between 61% and 82%. And then there is this...

That's a lot of missing ballots. I say this as not just as a Democrat but as an American, all these missing ballots deserve to be counted and the fact that they are missing gives both campaigns reason to bitch. Mail-in voting has greatly leaned towards Biden and he should contest every state with missing ballots, including those he has won. This is an election where a padded lead matters. Remember we are living in a "Reality TV" presidency and optics matter.

It's 2020 and the country that brags that it is the pillar of democracy can't seem to figure out how to do fair and unfucked with elections.

In the end, nothing changes at all. No matter who actually gets to 270, nothing changes with the Congress. Two sides dug in so hard that they refuse to work together and refuse to work for the people. Yes, this election shows Dems making inroads with the people of Texas, Arizona, Georgia, North Carolina, but also showed Republican support increasing in Ohio, Pennsylvania, Iowa, Michigan and other places. It seems that that party lines mean more than issues. It means more than 230,000 dead fellow Americans. It seems the country is more divided, and unwilling to try to come together.

 While there was huge voter turnout, races (not just presidential) are very tight. I see this as a chance for a third party to step up and try to reach from both sides and bring people together. I don't want to say make compromises, but building on the things "we" can agree on instead of what we don't.

But somehow, the two parties will come together to crush any hope of that.

America is broken as fuck.

Election Day Message to the Hypocritical Trumpers

 

Honestly, I could just leave it with that, but I just thought I would share a few more things. A month and a half ago I did a post the MEME NATION we have become and I thought I'd take that road again.

My one brother got suspended for 30 days on Facebook for pointing out irony and the hypocrisy of Republicans. this is what he posted.

Funny how Republicans and Trumpers love to call people "Snowflakes" yet they are the ones always crying foul and reporting people's posts that hurt their feelings.

Speaking of "Snowflakes"

About these hypocritical Trumpers blocking traffic and intimidating people...

That's right, only people that agree with them are allowed to exercise their First Amendment rights. #CUNTS

There was a video that broke tonight on Twitter, of a large group of Trumpers who chased a 20 year old who had a Black Lives Matter flag on her car. They ripped it from her car followed her, surrounded her in a parking lot. Then men and women threatened her, one man approaching her, armed with multiple guns, challenging her to come at him. When police arrived, they let all the Trumpers leave and treated this young lady as if she was the criminal.

Johnny Patriot, your Thin Blue Line, Blue Lives Matter, racist fucking flag breaks Flag Code. You're no Patriot!

How about some more Republican hypocrisy!?! The Pro-Life party that is riding along with Trump as he says COVID is not a big and it's going away, while 230,000 Americans have died and cases are spiking in 42 states. Or the fact that they are okay with ripping kids from their parents and locking them in cages.

And aren't the Republicans that always say they're the fiscally responsible party. We have a local race here in PA, that is driving me nuts. Here’s an idea, how about we outlaw these idiotic election fliers and ads I get every day in the mail. That way the postal system won’t be as bogged down with useless, nonsense mail and maybe we save some trees. Republican, Dan Laughlin, I don’t need a flier every single day for the last 3 months. The amount of money your campaign has wasted on shit that literally gets thrown in the garbage daily, is astonishing!

Doesn’t come across as very fiscally conservative or intelligent!

But that falls in-line with the Republican hypocrisy.

To be fair, I’m not a huge fan of Laughlin's opponent Julie Slomski either. They both have lame attack ads. He his a Republican attacked for voting like a Republican 97% of the time. How Shocking! (Sarcasm)

She is attacked for accepting her salary at her job. Holy shit! She got paid! Oh the humanity! (More sarcasm)

Well shit, how about we try to end this with a positive.

Oh, and don't forget to vote. Fuck Trump's bullshit and lies. #AllVotesMatter

Monday Moaning : Answering Some Questions

 

My longtime friend, blogger and former partner in YGS, B.O.B. posted a blog Sunday posing questions about PREPARING FOR A BIDEN WIN. We don't always agree on politics, and he openly seems to hate both parties on a pretty equal level. But we are able to have a back and forth with each other that many can't. Hell, I can't do it with most people. But we get that there are plenty of things that we agree on, and we can understand each other's view when we do disagree. So I posted in the comment section of his blog not realizing I blew way past the character limit for my reply. So I said screw it, make it this week's Monday Moaning. So click that link above for his blog and see his questions and ranting, then come back and checkout my response.

If Biden wins' who is running the country? Well, technically it is not just the job of the President but it is suppose to be shared duties with the congress...But we all forgot that long ago. Biden will be running it but I assume he will actually take the counsel of his staff and cabinet which is something that Trump is portrayed as not doing. The Squad does not have the power social media leads people to believe. The Democratic establishment in Congress  tries to hold them back a great deal, because the Democratic establishment is not that different from the Republican establishment in Congress. All those lifers cast a great spotlight on why we need term limits.

The Electoral College should be done away with no matter who wins...It should have been done away with ages ago...It invalidates people's votes...Say you, in California vote Republican, but this system says 'well more people in California voted Democrat, so all of our votes go to the Democrats...It's idiotic and I don't understand why it has lasted so long. We all have love to talk about how great democracy is, but this system is fundamentally not democratic. It should have and should always be a straight popular vote...No matter who wins, no matter what party is in power, that shit should be wiped out, and term limits installed.

The "not my President" thing...Listen, you know, I hate Trump. I never said that chant, and I will always root for the President to do well and good for the country. We he shows he's not doing that, I will be vocal and speak out, but that phrase is silly. I didn't like Bush (#2) but respected some of what he did and respected the office. I liked Obama, but there are things I disagreed with and actually looked at Romney instead of just blowing it off and saying 'I'm democrat I'm voting democrat.' 

You will go to Twitter jail...They really don't like speaking truth to power. It's also odd how politicians and media cans spew bullshit, lies, hate, division, but a regular guy calls them on it, or calls them an asshole (or worse) and they shut you down.

Pelosi and Schumer need to exit with McConnell and Graham and a mountain of others from both sides of the aisle. The National retirement age is 67, so why aren't these old ass, over 70 year olds being forced out.

I don't care if you say you don't trust Harris and don't care what you say about her. I said that didn't trust her and there were things I don't like about her during the primaries. Everyone somehow forgot how Tulsi Gabbard shredded her and put some facts and history out there during the primary debates and the next week Harris dropped out. 

People will make fun of Biden's gaffs...You sure can. SNL already has been for a month.

I never understood calling protesters or people who speak up for what they believe in "Snowflakes." By that same logic, I would be calling Trump or some of his supporters "Snowflakes" every time they complain. Should I have called him a "Snowflake" after he complained about the 60 minutes interview? I didn't. I called him other things. LOL! There is nothing more patriotic or American than protesting or speaking up for what you believe in and we shouldn't be belittling them for it or threatening them for it. I hate the Klan and Neo Nazis and Confederate flag wavers, but I never took a crew of armed friends to any of their rallies.

Last I saw from the FBI Joe Biden didn't do anything illegal with the Ukraine so I don't know why you played that card. 

An issue I have with this post is, "If a state votes for Trump, are all the people in that state deplorables?"  You are saying this as if us on the left is doing this crap. When in actuality this is the type of thing Trump himself has harped on. Saying he "won't give COVID funding to Blue states"...Trashing states with "Blue" governors and ignoring "Red" Governors who have fucked up. He has trashed my governor (Blue) for not opening up the state and not having kids go back to school...Except we did reopen. We had a high school football season. We did send kids back to schools, our governor just left it up to individual districts as to how they wanted to go back or open up the schools. My kids district gave the parents 3 options to choose from. We opened businesses slowly starting at 25% capacity and them 50%. Guess what has happened by the way? cases are spiking like crazy The last 5 days we have had our 5 highest new case totals. 

Ohio's governor (red) was one of the very first to shut down and he locked shit down hard there and they didn't go back to in person school until 2 weeks ago and Trump didn't trash him at all. BTW, many districts in Ohio went back to 100% virtual after a couple weeks back.

I know you are good man, and a busy man, but I think there are some things that have gotten past you.

Who you pray for is entirely up to you.

In 2016, I was furious...With both parties for the candidates they gave us. I hated both of them, Clinton and Trump. I was disappointed in our system and our choices. I understood why people went with Trump, even though I didn't agree with them. But after the last 4 years and now this late push to try to invalidate votes, I can't be quiet and not try to point out the flaws in the idea of giving Trump 4 more years.

 I'm voting for Biden to stop the madness our country has been in. To pump the brakes and try and get things back on track. He is not the guy I want but he's guy with a proven track record of working with both sides of the aisle and he's more level headed and can listen to reason. He also believes in science. 

You talked about Biden being Imbecilic and at another point who'd be running the country. I ask you, who has been for the last 4 years? Trump is in way over his head and cares more about twitter and rally sizes then doing any good for the country.

There is a book I read called "The Toddler in Chief"...The DC and military and intelligence establishment were all concerned about Trump as President. Especially when they saw how he blew off briefings and just babbled cluelessly and nonsensically about things, but they felt we would get through because there were plenty of "Adults in the room" to guide him. Then he started firing them or forcing them out. 

This is the type of President we have and that is a bad and scary thing. What bothers me the most are 3 things. 

1. The constant lying and just straight up, making shit up. Today, he said Biden is controlled by Fidel Castro. Castro who has been dead for 4 years.

 2. Ripping kids away from their parents and putting them in cages and now over 500 kids are without parents...And guess what, they are completely being supported by taxpayers, so what the hell did this all accomplish? We are a country built on people seeking a better life, free of Persecution, only to stop people coming here seeking a better life free of persecution and locking their kids in cages. That's not who we say we are...I guess we're full of shit. 

And 3. his lying and stupidity about COVID. 230,000 deaths and still counting. Many of those could have been prevented.

I love you and wish you and the family well. Again, I'm glad we can go back and forth on topics like this. Wish the DC dolts could be more like us, because God knows they won't let us in there. 

Hey Erie...Hey Pennsylvania...Trump Doesn't Care About Us

 

Trump came to town this week...They had attendees for the rally at the airport stage at the parking lot of Waldameer Park, not far from my home...Beside the idiotic Erie residents that support this orange faced, lying clown, they also has bus loads of people brought in...This has been a typical Trump campaign move going all the way back to his 2016 campaign...In typical fashion all local stations were masturbating all over this visit, while when Biden was here, only one station broke in and covered his speech....

Trump's speech was his same old song and dance, full of lies, and misinformation and hate...Yes, he pushed his racist claims about saving the suburbs...Which any adult not wearing Trump colored glasses knows, that means, 'Let's keep those Blacks out of your neighborhoods'....But besides his normal, bullshit, he also made it clear he doesn't care about Erie, PA...He just wants our votes and will go back to ignoring us regular, middle-class, (and lower) blue-collar folks as soon as he can...

Hey Erie, this is how little Trump thinks about you...

“Four or five months ago when we started this whole thing, because you know, before the plague came in, I had it made.” Trump said to the crowd in Erie, PA...

“ I wasn’t coming to Erie. I mean, I have to be honest, there was no way I was coming.”

The lunacy continued, “We had this thing won. We were so far up. We had the greatest economy ever, (lie) greatest jobs, (lie) greatest everything. (Lie) And then we got hit with the plague and I had to go back to work. Hello, Erie, may I please have your vote?”

"Had to go back to work." This fucktard thinks campaign rallies are going back to work...Listen you kid fucker, work would have been slowing down the spread of COVID...Not lying about it and letting 221,000 (and counting) Americans die from it...Work would have been getting together with bot parties and getting a real relief bill together instead of one that paid huge corporations, including some of your friends and your own businesses....Fucking Kanye is a legit billionaire and you let his criminal ass have COVID relief money...Fuck Donald Trump!

Trump didn't make America Great...He made a shithole! He didn't drain the swamp...He is the fucking swamp...
