He is the Id of the American White Male. This group of people see how Black, Latino, Asian, Gay, non-Christian, and female people are so much more VISIBLE than they were in the 1950’s. That’s it. That’s all of it. From this paranoid fixation, combined with demographic realities we have 70 million mostly armed malcontentsContinue reading “Trump and his Ilk”

Here’s an idea. From now on, we refer to Trump as “34.” That’ll really put a bug up his Depends.

Why the U.S. is Becoming Unlivable
A) Women’s rights are drying up more quickly than Lake Meade. This process has been catalyzed with Republican support for the kind of misogynistic myths that would warm the heart of Phylis Schlafly. Examples include “women should remain in violent marriages,” and “A rapist should have access to children born from his attack.” Margaret AtwoodContinue reading “Why the U.S. is Becoming Unlivable”
I Suppose It’s Just Me…
…but shouldn’t 100% of the Republican Party condemn Trump’s explicit call for termination of the Constitution (https://www.cnn.com/2022/12/03/politics/trump-constitution-truth-social/index.html)? And if the party is incapable of such an obviously decent reaction to a call from a presidential candidate to dissolve the key document on which U.S. government is based, shouldn’t the Democratic party be trumpeting Republicans’ moralContinue reading “I Suppose It’s Just Me…”
Are We Coming to Our Collective Senses?
What I have always found so frustrating about the rise of Trumpism is not that he was such a revoltingly bigoted and ignorant grifter, but that he had so many mindless followers who were praying for him to shoot someone on Fifth Avenue so that they could ignore it. It appears, mercifully, that the crestContinue reading “Are We Coming to Our Collective Senses?”
Me? I live in the United States of Oceania
With a rightist billionaire taking over CNN, and Florida and Texas trying to get rid of investment funds that don’t buy fossil fuel stock (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-08-25/esg-pros-say-republican-anti-woke-bashing-hurts-regular-savers ), western U.S. states crossing their arms like there is no water crisis, and red-state neighbors thinking they have a right to know why someone visited an abortion-legal state, it’sContinue reading “Me?

3:10 to I am Legend?
Republicans Dust off their most outrageous slur: https://www.politico.com/news/2022/03/20/republicans-2022-campaigns-00018591 The slur is the acronym “RINO,” or “Republican In Name Only. Frankly, I was expecting the N-Word; or Immigrant;” or the anti-gay “F-Word,” or “Communist,” or practically any hateful word at this point. There is not a caliper accurate enough to measure my indifference to Trump-inspired kvetching.Continue reading “3:10 to I am Legend?”
Hard at work on his 2024 Platform, Donald J. Trump is a Master Strategist.

Self Evidently Speaking….
Two Revelations: A) Putin is an infinitely more dangerous enemy than Osama Bin Laden ever was. Nearly everybody was willing to do pretty much anything to bring the latter to justice, whereas now, one-third of the country is fine siding with someone who is seriously threatening nuclear war…you know, the kind of thing that wouldContinue reading “Self Evidently Speaking….”
