Atticus's JournalAny truth to the rumor---which I'm starting with this post---that a large "Shredders-R-Us" truck is
parked behind the White House wall?
America is a victim of its own ( understandable) naivete.
The Trump disaster has forced us to confront the fact that much of our Constitution, many of our laws and most of our customs assume that our leaders---those we select to govern us---will operate in good faith; will make decisions based upon what is best for our nation.
We have, until 2016, taken it for granted that even the most partisan politician would never be so brazen as to consistently choose to increase their personal fortune and power at the expense of our national welfare---sometimes even at the expense of American lives.
We never anticipated the possibility that our national judgment would be so impaired that we would select a genuinely amoral sociopath as our Chief Executive; our Commander in Chief; the "leader of the free world".
As we move on from this national nightmare, many of our laws will need to be reviewed and the question "How could a Trump evade or pervert this?" asked about each of them. We need to anticipate another unhinged shameless liar seeking the presidency and protect ourselves and future Americans from him or her.
If you had a gangrenous toe, you would not just ignore it and hope for the best.
The swollen, discolored, foul-smelling toe would not get better or go away simply because you did not want to deal with it. Untended, the disgusting thing could kill you.
As painful as the decision may be, amputation is sometimes the only remedy for a gangrenous toe---or a foot---or a leg---that has been ignored for too long.
You may or may not see similarities between a gangrenous toe and a rotten White House resident.
So, how do you get a former Trump administration employee off your front porch?
Pay for the pizza!
If you saw someone walking around your neighborhood, pouring and igniting puddles of
gasoline, would you simply follow them around repeating "Please don't do that! You're endangering all of us!"?
If a neighbor purchased a tiger and placed it in an ordinary dog pen in his backyard, would you stop at verbally criticizing them for endangering your family?
If someone began a walk through a crowded mall wildly swinging a Samurai sword, would you just point at him and tell him he "should be ashamed"?
Why in hell are we responsible patriotic mask-wearers not getting loudly pissed off at non-maskers polluting our air? At the least, why are we not summoning management and insisting that either the self-centered ass leave or wear a mask?
These idiots must be shamed, shunned and, if necessary, arrested.
Jenna Ellis, if you happen to browse here, I suggest you cut to the chase: just hang a sign
around your neck which reads "I am a hateful dumb-ass".
Those who read or hear your "legal" opinions and gratuitous online vulgarities will come to that conclusion about you, but the sign will save everyone's time.
As banks and other corporations are about to begin an avalanche of evictions, foreclosures and
repossessions, would it be politically possible to "call a time-out"?
Temporarily barring all these actions while also temporarily suspending any accrual of interest would give America a chance to catch their breath and heal; a chance to re-acclimate to a new reality in which good faith and integrity were once again associated with government.
Landlords and banks could be persuaded that helping their customers survive would be "good business".
Do I have all the details worked out? No, but people smarter than me could do that if they accepted the premise.
Dear Chris Twisty---I just heard you comment on TV that Trump's legal team's efforts to steal the
election for him have been "a national embarrassment". While that is certainly correct, I am compelled to ask "Who told you that?"
You are apparently unaware that, not only has Trump himself been a national embarrassment for at least five years, YOU have been and continue to be a national embarrassment.
My point, Mr. Twisty, is that you are hardly a person at all qualified to judge who or what is embarrassing. In fact, you might be interested to learn that most of us just assume that all who work with and publicly support Donald Trump are incapable of embarrassment as they have absolutely no sense of shame. It's like a job requirement.
So maybe just get off TV and go play with some of those traffic cones again. As your buddy, Clint Eastwood, says: "A man's got to know his limitations!"
ATTENTION---all TRUE Americans! Announcing a new service for Trump-lovers: "POO-Anon"
Our name is derived from two sources: we are comprised of People Often Overwrought AND we intend to sling so much POO on those damn "facts" the Biden camp thinks are important that no one will want to dig them out. With that introduction, take a look at our astounding first explanation of how Biden is trying to steal the election.
THIS HAS BEEN AN "OWIE"! ( Other World Influenced Election )
First---of course Mr. TRUMP has been aware of all we are about to explain. He knows EVERYTHING. He and Putin have been fighting the electoral influence of---ALIENS---for over a year. And, by "aliens", we ain't talkin' Mexicans---we're talkin' Venusians!
That's right---beings from the planet Venus, in collusion with Soros, Che Guevara ( whose death was FAKED! ) and, of course, both Joe and Hunter Biden, have used a device that combines electro-magnetism, Cheeto dust and dark matter essence to cause Trump's ballots to totally disintegrate and Biden's ballots to multiply at least four times by a weird form of never-seen-before asexual reproduction.
That recent SpaceX launch of four astronauts was just the cover story ingeniously employed by Trump to conceal the real purpose of the launch: the total destruction of the dark matter essence refineries on Venus. Once supply of this stuff is stopped, the Trump ballots will spontaneously regenerate and Biden's will shrivel into gelatinous globules so tiny they will be dispersed by the slightest breeze. When the TRUE vote totals are thus revealed, Trump will have won a minimum of 450 electoral votes.
Both Elvis and "John-John" Kennedy will join Mr, Trump on the stage as he is inaugurated as POTUS on January 20th before the usual record-breaking crowd!
POO-Anon! "WWG,TWA"! ( Wherever We Go, There We Are! )
Who will make this pledge with me?
Trump is already discussing---in private, of course--- how he intends to make big bucks giving paid speeches to big corporations and "business interests" after he is evicted on January 20th.
Corporations and "business interests" should know that hiring this sociopath to ramble and repeat and drone on and on about how great he is WILL have negative financial consequences. Remember: "Everything Trump touches dies!" Many of us have pledged to totally boycott any business associated with this brazen lining of the thug's pockets. I am one of them.
I so pledge.
