My goodness, this country is headed for utter chaos. That opening statement not nearly profound enough for you?
Okay, here’s one: Bernie Sanders is in cahoots with Fearless Leader who is delighted to see Uncle Bernie come back into the fray. Oh, and happy hump day everybody. In case you’ve been hiding from your television set over the past 24 hours or so (smart person that you are), Bernie Sanders (aka, Uncle Bernie) announced that he’s running for president again in 2020. We’re doomed. First, a couple of updates. So last night, former acting FBI director Andrew McCabe was on CNN hinting that Donald Trump may very well be a Russian agent. Yeah, you know, I’m not sure Fearless Leader is clever enough to be a Russian agent. If I were a Russian intelligence type (which thankfully I’m not), I would want an asset who could think on their feet. An asset that would do whatever I asked, whenever I asked. That’s not Fearless Leader. He can’t see past his next shot on the 13th hole. And, he is happy to comply until the moneyed packs (read as PACs) begin stirring then it’s all about him being an evangelical (snort), a science-denying idiot (“Dinosaurs that lived 500 years ago were too flatulent and now we have global cooling!”), a war-waging hawk (“I’ll defeat everyone! The Germans haven’t learned their lesson yet!”), or a fencing company salesman (“No, no, concrete walls is so Cold War…we’re talking steel slats baby!”). McCabe is trying to sell books. That’s all. He was fired one day before he was set to retire. So, he lost his pension. If that had been me, I would have been kicking and screaming all the way into court. McCabe claims he still hasn’t decided whether he’ll sue the government for his pension. Really? There’s something very wrong there. So, let’s see, oh, the other update is that smug, arrogant creep Roger Stone is being hauled back into court to explain to the Federal judge overseeing his case what precisely was his intent with the whole rifle scope pic on Instagram. The judge has informed his legal team that it better be a good explanation otherwise she is likely to revoke his bail and drop him into a cell in that (reportedly, I’ve never been there personally) deplorable Federal lock-up in Manhattan. Okay, back to Uncle Bernie. So, I made the statement above that Uncle Bernie is in cahoots with Fearless Leader. Do I mean on an ideological level? Oh my, no. Although to be honest I can’t figure out what Fearless Leader’s ideology really is. As I pointed out above, it seems to shift with whatever individual(s) are willing to throw cash at him. Ah, maybe that’s it! Fearless Leader’s ideology is cash! Yeah, that’s it. Although I can probably say the same about Uncle Bernie. His announcement that he was throwing his hat into the race in 2020 was followed by another announcement later that afternoon that he had raised $4 million in a matter of a few hours. I will say this for Uncle Bernie, he is a master at raising large quantities of $$$ from small donations from a whole lotta people. I also guess I must give Uncle Bernie some props for kicking the progressive movement off its lazy ass back in 2016. Instead, we wound up with Hillary…judas priest (not a fan). Does Uncle Bernie have the support and momentum to take it all in 2020? Possibly. What really worries me is that having Uncle Bernie in the race (if there’s a hiccup along the way) almost guarantees a win for Fearless Leader. The problem here is that Uncle Bernie is just a bit too far to the left for most Dems. That means if he loses out on the nomination again, he may very well move over to where he’s most comfortable, running as an Independent with that vacuous idiot Howard “Mr. Coffee” Schultz. Uncle Bernie will eat Mr. Coffee for breakfast. But… If that were to happen (Uncle Bernie making a run as an independent) it will almost assuredly win another term for Fearless Leader, assuming he isn’t indicted for something in the meantime (remember Nixon?). Nixon’s still dead, right? That’s why I say Uncle Bernie is in cahoots with Fearless Leader. Fearless Leader even spoke almost fondly of Uncle Bernie yesterday following the announcement that he’s in the race. Fearless Leader sees the writing on the wall…it’s his ticket to reelection. Barf. That is all! Comments are closed.
