Its almost done..Squirrely polls.. squirrely people.. but its almost over

whew what a campaigning nightmare Trump has been for both parties.. I am afraid we may have become so entrenched that it will be decades before the parties can work together.. so for the health of the country we need one party in office with the backing of at least one of the houses of Congress.. better yet two..


But thank GOD its almost over..

And next week the 2020 campaign starts.. count on it

The establishment repukes will point to the 2012 post-mort um and try to get control of the GOP back from the angry mob people. Brietbart and infowars aren't going anywhere so... I predict a split.

So we get possibly 2 years to watch them carve each other up.

I hope it lasts to the midterm. I hope the idiots DO try to stop government from functioning, no SCOTUS nominee gets even a hearing, etc.

That might be the only thing to finally wake people up and we throw them all into the dust bin of history and elect a solidly blue House and Senate... and finally tackle Climate Change (the most serious threat to humans and wildlife as we know it... oh the planet will survive just fine, but it won't be the planet that we have known for the last few thousand years).
