Republicans, The Next Four Years Are All On You (Redux)

Yes, Republicans and all who supported and voted for Donald J. Trump for president, after today, he and all he does and all the ramifications are all, every one of them, on you.

Sure, Mr. Trump is already taking us down his deep, dark "rabbit hole" and we'll all suffer but his actions? The blame for what he does and says and tweets and all the ramifications? Even the ones from the election to today, while he was only president-elect, everything from November 8 to today and for as long as he is president, it's all on you. We have you and your vote and your actions to blame.

The economy?   On you.

The nation's international standings?

You.

Any debt or debts he accrues?

Wars?

All.

On you.

And believe me, if he should do anything right and/or well and good, sure, you absolutely get any credit there.

Should that occur.

Same for Mike Pence, as Vice President or, God also forbid, President.

You get all the blame.  It's all on you, to repeat.

You wanted this. You voted for it. You supported him and all he represented then and represents since.

Yes, he's all our President, the nation's President but not because we voted for him, not because a majority of us voted for him.  You did this.

So buck up and suck it up, kids, because Mr. Trump has already shown us all, since that fateful November election day last year that this is going to be a bumpy, bumpy, unpredictable ride.

Any debt. Any wars. Any bloodshed. Any diplomatic and/or international political mistakes and/or miscues.

It's all on your hands.

The Trumps Say They Won't Prostitute the Office of the Presidency Directly Any More

According to the New York Times today:

President-elect Donald J. Trump’s son Eric Trump says he will no longer directly solicit contributions for charities because of the potential for donors to try to use him to gain access to his father.

How comforting.

So, in the first place, these people, including this man soon-to-be-President, they were all going to pimp his own presidency, pimp the nation, really, all of us, for big-time funds just because enough of us were foolish, if not stupid enough to have voted for him. That's horrible enough.

Now, his son says they won't do it "directly."

Now they'll have a middle-man do it, no doubt.

What's bizarre, first, is that it would and did even occur to them to do this. Second, someone had to no doubt tell them how completely and utterly inappropriate it is, if not thoroughly illegal.

Fantastic.

Again, thanks, Republicans and Right Wingers and all the racists and Obama haters out there who voted for this clownish, infantile buffoon.  It's already paying off for them---and maybe for you, too?--and he's not even inaugurated.

Quote of the Day -- God Help Us

The one thing I want to hear in the State of the Union address

That is, I want to hear the President push Congress for jobs programs. We have a great deal of highway and infrastructure jobs, projects and work across the country that need attention and work, as we all know. I'd like to hear him push this Congress for bills and programs that emphasize that so we can get and keep America back to work and so our highways, streets, sewage--everything--is as it should be and not 10 or 20 years behind in maintenance. Then, I would like to have this Congress and all parties in it get behind him and support it for the betterment of the entire nation. The political party division in the country is ugly, senseless and needs to stop. We need to all work together as Americans, as the country used.

On tonight's State of the Union address

"Go big, Mr. President, tonight. Go big. This is the moment when the transformation away from the old politics happens; when the baby-boom battle recedes; when the extremism of the GOP finally eats itself; and when a saner future can be born. The real moment of transformation will be the re-election of a reasonable president in an unreasonable time. But tonight is the harbinger, the marker, the rally moment. Seize it." -— Andrew Sullivan, English-American author, editor, political commentator and blogger. For what it's worth--my take on it is that the President needs to push for jobs and jobs programs from this Congress and shove it down their throats. I feel sure the American people are solidly behind him on that.

Mark my words

Put down the date: June 12, 2008.

It's the day I predict that the American people are going to have the largest and most public celebration ever for this quadrennial event--including dancing in the streets (it will be on the news that evening) next January 20, 2009, to celebrate President George Walker Bush taking leave of office.


It's one of the few good things that will come from these last 8 years--and his tenure.
