Whether it’s Donald Trump, his evil spawn Ivanka, Rudy, or any of the other of his flesh eating hoard, I can barely wait to say to myself “good riddance to bad rubbish.”
I am sick and tired them inhabiting my brain. I am weary of writing about them.
It wasn't news about Donald or even Rudy this morning who prompted "I can't wait to say good riddance to bad rubbish" to pop into my mind. This time it was the one Trumper that seems to illicit the most bile in me because had her face on three stories at the top of the RawStory website (click to enlarge image below)
I am tired of listening to one pundit say that Trump can’t possibly overturn the election to having my anxiety reemerge by reading articles like “Rudy Giuliani's demented ‘strike force’ fights to overturn election: Could it possibly work?” by Heather “Digby” Parton, to which RawStory, which republished it, added to the title “don’t be sure it can’t succeed.”
Do I need to keep reading stories like this as the main article on Daily Kos: “Ignore the hair dye and conspiracy claims, the United States is genuinely under threat?”
I am even weary of reading articles like this by Bandy X. Lee “Trump will not hesitate to cause violence to stay in power: psychiatric expert,” reading a experts are diagnosing him as having fallen into hypomania, and seeing Mary Trump explain Trump’s psychopathology on MSNBC.
I hope all of them go out as ignominiously as possible, disgraced, shamed, and humiliated to the point that even some of their previous supporters begin to realize that they drank the Kool-Aide. I want to see them not only mocked on Twitter and late night talk shows, but with clips like those shown on Morning Joe this morning, brutally comparing Rudy Gulliani sweating so much it liquified his hair dye with classic scenes from TV shows with characters like Newman on Seinfeld sweating as he was interrogating a cool and calm Jerry:
True justice dictates that where there were violations of federal law these criminals ought to be investigated by the Biden Department of Justice and if tried and found guilty should end up in the federal correction system. It would be karmic irony that this where Trump got federal prison guards were be part of thug squad used to attack peaceful demonstrators.
Of course federal trials are unlikely to happen since Trump will issue pardons to all of his minions, including to himself. None of his criminal coterie have the moral fiber to decline a pardon, which implies guilt but does not constitute an admission of guilt, and decides to be judged in court by a jury and clear their name.
Regardless of this, I think most federal prisons are too good for them. Enough of them committed crimes in New York State that while some may skate, others will be ground up in the state with the fitting appellation that is said to go back to the man who refused to be king, George Washington: The Empire State.
Trump fancied himself the king of New York City, Ivanka and Jared wanted to be A list stars of the city’s social scene, Rudy loved to be called America’s mayor, the smug Eric and Donald Jr. believed they actually meant something there. Some like Steven Miller may not have committed crimes in New York so he may wriggle his slimy racist body out of town free and clear but I’ll settle for a few wearing prison orange.
I really want them all to be hauled off to one of New York’s grungier prisons.
Since I can be there in person each time one is hauled off in handcuffs I want to be able to watch on TV as they are perp walked into a prison van so I can say “good riddance to bad rubbish.” Even this doesn’t happen I want them to start seriously worrying about the prospect of prison.
All this being said, even if none of them get their just deserts, I still will be relieved to finally say “good riddance to bad rubbish.”
