Obama Swagger v. The Clown Car

    As we move within 12 days of the most important election ever, things just get crazier and crazier. Between Rudy with a hand down his pants, Trump's continued antics, and the supporters themselves, some like me just feel exhausted. Last night we got a taste of comfort when Barry took that stage. My liberal swagger returned

   First off,  I must say that the concept of Obama's rally was ingenious. Repurposing the parking lot of a sports arena into a drive-in was a marketing win in every way. Not only did it provide social distancing, but it also added a nostalgia vibe to Obama's amazing speech. 

   I still love Barry, and his words last night sang to my shattered heart. Hope has been scarce during the past few months, and his eloquence and swagger was like a hot fudge sundae for my spirit. Contrasting how the GOP reacts to Trump's scandals, to how they would react to him acting as foolish really focused on just how hypocritical the GOP truly are. I also loved how Obama mentioned the pandemic playbook they left, and joked about it being used to level a table. He pulled no punches, and attacked Trump, but in the smooth way only Obama can pull off. This is why he is still my president. Watch for yourself, this is what leadership looks like.

   In comparison, Trump was at another super spreader rally, lying and denying his way through as usual. He sang all of his greatest hits, gaslit the audience about Covid some more, and of course the cult cheered loudly through it all. Diaper Don is like the Grateful Dead, touring the country with Donnie's kids, but without the talent, kindness, or sense of any community. These people brag about herd immunity killing millions, there is no empathy for others within the cult. They don't want anyone different to have rights, people to earn living wages, and yearn for their neighbor's healthcare to be cancelled. They have lost their humanity, and are violating the very bible they use to justify their venom. I no longer have patience for them, as can be verified by my numerous bids in Facebook jail..lol

   As for Rudy caught with his hand down his cookie jar. (In more ways than one..lol) I absolutely cannot wait to watch him be humiliated by Sasha Baron Cohen. I'm actually planning to stay up to watch as soon as Amazon drops it. I gleefully anticipate the day his ghoulish ass is thrown in jail. He's the Penguin without the class and warmth. Just another drunk like Bannon, pretending he is in any way relevant. Even his own daughter thinks he's done. 

   The only way out of the reality show/circus we are experiencing is to vote. We need to cone out for Joe and Kamala the way we came out for Obama in 2008. His speech last night only further enhanced why Trump needs to go. Joe has the compassion and empathy we will desperately need in the post Trump era. I'd rather have a beer with Mr Rogers than Caligula, and I voted accordingly.

Vote Mother F***ers


 Now you all knew I would chime in with my humble (LOL) opinion about THAT other Amy at some point. Watching these hearings is like watching the senate scene in Revenge of the Sith on a loop. To quote Padme, "So this is how liberty dies, with thunderous applause."

  I DON'T FUCKING THINK SO!

  Even if that cuckoo Church Lady is pushed through as is expected, I still believe that we can avoid the dystopian nightmare we all fear. To do this we MUST vote in record numbers, make such a blue tsunami that we drown these racist stormtrooper militias, Senator Palpatine McConnell, Darth Trump and the rest of the ghouls and dark side scum in the Imperial GOP. Show them that we aren't taking their shit anymore, and their jobs aren't lifetime appointments. Get these geriatric cavemen out of OUR congress. 

  To do this we need to fight as hard as the Rebel Alliance did in the holy trilogy. If we can win both houses in congress, we can impeach and remove these unfit judges and Supreme Court justices being rammed through. Trump fired federal judges when he was elected, and so can we. Liberals need to stop taking a French tickler to a gun fight, and grow some testicular fortitude. Trump sycophants only know how to play dirty, they're setting the precedent so let's call them on it.

  Many will say that liberals need to keep the moral purity, and to be bigger than the swamp. This will only continue to get us steamrolled, and could even hasten the destruction to our democracy. We can't continue to be the proverbial Charlie Brown having the football pulled away by Lucy Van Pelt. What McConnell has done is abhorrent, and he laughs about it. This should be a slap in the face to every American, especially when this current fiasco has Trumped needed aid to people affected by Covid-19. (Pun intended.) It's nothing more than a gross abuse of power, and it's time for liberals to counter punch.

  Even though The Rise of Skywalker sucked ass, it did depict good people fighting for right and defeating evil. At the end of the saga balance was brought back to The Force, despite the sacrifices made with the losses of Han, Luke, Leia, and even Ben. We may have sustained heavy losses under Orange Vader, but we can overcome just like Rey, Finn, Poe, and the rest of the Rebel Alliance. We just gotta fight, and I've got a burning fire in my belly. (Could be an ulcer...lol)

  On my way out, I'd like to suggest a film about the very issue of voting that is having it's premiere via Facebook this Saturday at 8pm. It's called "Vote, Motherfucker", and you can reach it by using the link below. I'm personally pretty psyched about it, even if I must confess my positive bias of the filmmaker..lol
