Now that Trump has shot his own self on Fifth Avenue with a giant scuzzball Nazi bullet, so to speak, the Mercers are all set to get their pasty pure Dominionist into the presidency. The man that Indiana was all set to vehemently deny another term as governor is all set to sashay into the oval office. That man is Pence. Pence is not good for the country. He hates just as surely as Trump does. But there’s some things the country doesn’t quite get yet. Let me elaborate.
The Trump turds are of two different ilks. One ilk is the Putin ilk. Those include Flynn, Mannafort, Tillerson, Donald Jr., Miller, Gorka, and wannabes like Nunes, Giuliano, and Christie. That ilk has been pretty well pegged, and Mueller’s all over it. We have, after all, been dueling it out with Russia for a very long time and we got a good handle on them. The fantastic investigative reporting, and Rachel Maddow’s stellar broadcasts that make it so digestible for us, has got the Putin ilk of the Trump turdness pretty well defined and contained.
The other ilk is the Mercer ilk. That’s the ilk that the country doesn’t get yet. That ‘s the Bannon ilk. Bannon’s not gonna get pegged on the Russia thing because that’s not where he plays. He plays in the Dominionist realm. That’s the Ted Cruz realm. That’s the Kelly Anne Conway realm. That’s the Devos and the Prince and the Falwell realm. They’re every bit as dangerous as the Putin ilk, but the psyche of America hasn’t been scratched by it yet.
It’s time to focus on the Mercer ilk really much. Bannon is gonna go balls to the wall to make Pence be the next president as soon as possible. The Mercers will fund it. Sessions, by the way, is in the Mercer camp way more than he is in the Putin camp.
Rachel Maddow opened some of this up tonight, but didn’t draw the direct line between Bannon’s departure from the White House and Pence’s ascent to the presidency. I think that line needs to be drawn. The Putin wing’s influence is wilting because of the intensity of the light being shined on it, but the Mercer wing is thriving in the dark, damp corners of what’s happening right now. Time to turn up the heat on the Mercers and all their lackeys. This is a two front war.

I’m just coming off vacation and I totally recognize this is a link lite and pretty much stream of consciousness diary. I just want to get it up here as a heads up. I’ll try to post more source stuff in the coming days. Meanwhile, Rachel’s show from tonight gives a taste for what I’m talking about.
