It's been five long years of blogging the Trump years. We've laughed, we've cried, we've pulled some of our remaining hair out, but we've made it. It is almost done and our democracy, nation, and souls are still largely intact. Unfortunately, we're not through.There is much more to come as we stitch ourselves back together like some kind of common Frankenstein monster as we recover from the PTSD that Trump gave us and the needless deaths and suffering from #COVID19. We also have to #BidenHarris honest, oppose Republican obstructionism anti-democratic tendencies, and whatever other black swans await us. All of which will be addressed using good old-fashioned snarcky, sarcasticky, profaney fun and psychological insights.

Read up on why we need to support average Americans by putting cash in their pockets during this unprecedented crisis! The benefits of the CARES Act end on 31 July. A new stimulus check of $1,200.00 per adult and $600.00 per week bonus to unemployment insurance is badly needed. The senate will only have eleven days to get it done once they return from recess, 20 July. Call your senator today and everyday urging them to pass the HEROES Act without delay.

I KNOW, how could it be longer than, “He’s a narcissist! ‘Nough said.” But that’s not much of a blog post, though. I explain why narcissism makes him more likely to blunder into treason and be manipulated by Putin into committing treason than doing so as a result of blackmail.

It is unbelievable that 51% of the population thinks he is providing strong and decisive leadership in during the time of COVID19. And, we’re killing people over social distancing and wearing masks? People are taking hydroxycloroquine, calling about the safety of bleach, and not wearing masks? Why does Trump have any credibility with anyone since we all know it is bullshit? Science can explain…

I get it that the Bernie Bros are upset that their man didn’t make it… AGAIN! And, that it is just inexplicable that the entirety of America weren’t swept off their feet like they were, so there must be something WRONG. There is something wrong: they don’t understand how democracy works.

The Ol’ Pussy Grabber is back to his narcissism-driven fun and games! He’s trying to gaslight us into believing a pandemic isn’t a pandemic and the sick and dying aren’t the sick and dying. And won’t we all go out and buy stocks again? If not that, let him give the rest of the budget to the billionaire class? It would really help him a lot.
Even the Repubes seem to believe that Congress should mandate the amount spent, where it comes from, and how it’s spent. Do your part to keep them on the straight and narrow: Call your MoC!
