I have been hearing on the TV machine

that these hearings are shredding Trumpty Dumptey's credibility.


I find this statement less than credible, because

HE DOESN'T HAVE AN OUNCE OF CREDIBILITY LEFT TO SHRED ! ! !


The fact that there is anybody left in this world who think that he does is, to use his own word:
SAD.

when she started saying really absurd things on camera and Tories were asking each other if she'd dropped a few cards out of her deck. Everybody else knew she'd been barking mad the day she got into office and had been getting steadily worse, the final straw being her idiotic poll tax idea that had people rioting all over the country. Eventually she was patted on the head and led away so John Major could take over for the poor dear.

Mental illness has to be undeniably obvious and consistent before conservatives will recognize any of the signs, IMO. They missed it completely in Nixon, missed Reagan's Alzheimer's (which my mother spotted in 1982 when he tried to go off script) and they'll consistently miss it in Dolt45 unless he does something like start to eat the wind resistant cover on one of the micorphones in front of him and talking with his mouth full.

I'm afraid the bedrock conservative in rural areas isn't going to believe his credibility is shredded for a very long time. If we do manage to get rid of him sooner rather than too late, the average conservative will carry the same bitterness that bunch has over Nixon.
