Where does one start? Idiocy abounds, morons unite, and everything Mark Twain ever said about congress will come true.
Not only has Margarine Greene demanded and received concessions and support from Kevin “Slinky Spine” McCarthy, no one else in the Caucus bothered to step up to help him out or to stand up to her cultish sect. Their silence speaks volumes.
Kevin can expect the same amount of support in the future, even if he somehow buys votes from his caucus to earn the title of Speaker. Having never acted as a leader or organizer (other than to quote Nancy Reagan on drugs, regardless of the topic), and given the craven way he crawled back to Marred A Lagoon, begging forgiveness, it is impossible that some foreign entity, buried deep inside whatever may be left of his dark and dank soul, consisting of honesty, integrity, wit, tact, and strength could ever be dug out and empowered. Even if he did find something wholesome inside of himself, just one glance from Trump would be enough to turn any resolve he might have had into a bowl of jello.
So, what has Margarine promised us?
- Investigations (Biden, Hillary, Pelosi, CDC, DOJ, just to start with)
- Support for J6 folks in prison
- Hunter Biden, each and every news cycle
- defunding Ukraine
- Building a wall
- Investigations (Biden, Hillary, Pelosi, CDC, DOJ, just to start with)
And did I mention Investigations?
Not one comment from any GQP member of the house about future plans, dealing with Climate Change, inflation, Russian influence on elections, freeing ourselves from Chinese tech monopolies, COVID, the unbelievable destruction of Twitter (which only helps China, Saudi Arabia, and Russia). Not one comment, not one issue, not one goal or aspiration. It is a deliberate, willful abdication of their oaths of office, duties under the constitution and generally an insult to the American people. It is also doomed to failure.
Every new administration has a honeymoon period, sometimes a month, sometimes longer. These cretins do not realize that their political credit card is already overdrawn and if they show no mutually beneficial policy efforts, not only will the masses turn on them, even our fickle and inept Main Steamed Media will turn on them.
Clearly they do not recognize the danger they will soon face, at least not the GQP current leaders. People like Gym Jordan, Matt (I like the little ones) Gaetz, Liberty Biberty Boebert (if she survives) and others will drive the House off the cliff, as though another hurricane dropped in on them. Even more than Trump, they will permanently scar the face of Republicanism in this country.
The Yute will not just disdain and laugh at them, they will never, ever vote for anyone sporting an “R” next to their name. The Elders? With upcoming attacks on Social Security and Medicare/Medicaid, they will actually march on DC to complain, walkers, crutches and wheelchairs, to boot. And the middle-aged, Muddle Class? A growing fire in their guts, and a cold determination to fix Congress before it destroys us all.
Disney once cruelly drove lemmings off a cliff to entertain (?) the yute of the whirled. Today’s Freedumb Carcass will do the same to the GQP controlled House, and potentially to the country. Sure, it will be entertaining to some, like the moron conservatives whose sole goal is to “own the libs.” But, sad to say, we will have to suffer for some time before things really get ludicrous and bad before things improve.
Steny Hoyer and Nancy Pelosi both decided to move aside and allow new, young, fresh blood into leadership. Their timing, as usual, is impeccable. Until we have time to compare how professional and talented they were over the decades, compared to the trailer trash that now controls the Republicans, I don’t think we can fully thank them enough.
