I don't drink much. I'm a lightweight. I need days or sometimes weeks between drinks before my 49 year old self can fully recuperate. Politics likely pushes me to imbibe more than any other force on Earth, our only home.
Today,
When I read that John Bolton is calling on GOP leadership to explain to Trump MAGA supporters that Trump lost and Biden won, I was struck(with joy, of course).
The sky is falling around Trump. His bloated ego is crashing down around him. Bolton was a Trump ally. He was a Trump foreign policy and national security advisor.
Love or hate Bolton, but he gave a gut-punch to the GOP's disrespect to the newly elected Prez-elect, our beloved Joe.
Bolton gave a middle-finger to Trump as well.
And that's why I had two shots of fireball whiskey today.

I do admit it's entertaining watching that bloated slob struggle to come to grips with the fact that cheating raised to the level of sabotaging an essential government service still wasn't enough to give him a false win, while walking the knife edge between denial and outright delusion just so he can keep fleecing his sheep for a few more weeks.
As for Bolton, he's as wrong headed as they come, belligerently so, but he isn't completely divorced from reality. Even Sheldon Adelson has seen through the bluster. About all Dumdum has left are Robert and Rebekah Mercer and if he manages to take them down with him, he will have performed an inadvertent service to the country he has refused to support.
