I have finally found a way to utilize both of myselves by combining my knowledge of and passion for psychology with my snarky alter-ego.

Did you see that defense on day one of the impeachment trial? You try explaining that ineffective hot mess. This time we address the role of cognitive dissonance. Pray that I don’t have to explain the role of the Ol’ Pussy Grabber’s narcissism in it, that’ll be a mini dissertation.

Let’s face it after this long national debacle that is the Ol’ Pussy Grabber is over, we’ll have Repubes distancing themselves and disavowing and pretending like they were lambs in the wind pure as dribbled on snow.

The most effective way to influence the government is through calling your MoC in this case, your senator! And, when I say call, I mean using the phone, sending postcards, using their website contact form, or using social media.

We take a look at some of the posts that best characterize each of those years and trace out our recent national history ending with a bold prediction for 2020.
