Please be patient with me...

I know this initially seems convoluted but hang on...

Many years ago, MAD mag did a sendup of Mandrake the Magician. He’s traveling in a car with his two assistants and gets a flat tire. He immediately stated that he will fix it with his powers of hypnotism. His trusted bodyguard Lothar says: you can hypnotize us into thinking it’s fixed, you can even hypnotize yourself into thinking it’s fixed, but how are you going to hypnotize the tire into thinking it’s fixed?

Trump and his idiotic minions may have to come to terms with the fact that you cannot place stupid hats on viruses and mass-convince them that the ruler possesses the Divine Right of Kings. All the talk, all the BS, all the lies won’t wirk. It’s possibly the closest thing to Divine Intervention, if you are a believer, that has occurred recently. The funny part of all this is that the Fuhrer is a prime candidate for complications: obese, poor nutrition and thus poor immune system, cardiovascular issues including I believe, but not limited to CHF and I’ll bet he’s st the very least pre-diabetic. It’s like an additional chapter in Stephen King’s The Stand.


It should be interesting....

So the story goes that on an early date Donald takes Melania home and says to her,”Hey baby how about a goodnight fuck?”
Melania’s reply, “Ok. Goodnight, fuck.”

As I’m writing this it comes over as a flash that Dow futures are plunging again Sunday night. Looks like a “Goodnight, Fuck” to me.

I also remember your post from a few weeks ago saying "I am awaiting the Deus ex Machina. It will happen. Believe me. It always does. "

You were right.

I am sure you, like me, don't wish misery on millions, but if this pandemic and/or market meltdown brings down the Scumbag-in-Chief and his minions, it will be one less ongoing crisis.

Story goes that Mickey was sitting at a bar, more than a couple under his belt when a sweet young thing comes in. Mickey, ever the smooth-talking devil, turns to her and asks her "Hey, what would you say to a little fuck?", to which she, never missing a beat replies "Goodbye, little fuck".
