"A MAGA Shade of Fail"---by Protocol Scare 'em

They danced the right wing tango
As they voted to acquit
I thought that I might be sick
But, then, in just a bit
The Donald turned to blackmail
In a phone call to Ukraine
And, his claim the call was perfect
Just confirmed that he's insane!

But, all this happened later
After Mueller told his tale
That Barr, at first just ghastly,
Turned a MAGA shade of fail.

After reading the memo from Trump's doctor, I have a question. Since I believe that the

"potential benefits" of blonde hash "outweighs the relative risks", if I find a doctor who agrees with me I can visit Alice legally, right?

This may be a little "Hokey".

We vote Joe Biden in
We kick that Trump guy out
We vote Joe Biden in
'Cause he knows what it's all about

We throw Trump in the pokey and we never let him out
That's what it's all about!

"It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall!"

To those in Trump's employment:

You KNOW he's going down, right? I mean, yeah, intelligence and judgment aren't exactly requirements to get in Trump's ass-kissing line, but surely most of you aren't THAT stupid! You surely understand that, historically, tyrants and their wannabes never "end well". The fortunate ones get to slink away in disgrace, but some die in prison and some---well, let's just say their exits from the world stage are "more colorful".

And, Trump's supporters---those who helped him rape and plunder---what is in their---YOUR--- future? Do you really think there are enough fascist/racist/white supremacist/homophobic/religious nut-job enterprises to hire all of you? Do you believe any other type of employer will want to be associated with someone who knowingly assisted the maniac who suggested injecting "disinfectants" while tens of thousands of us died?

I have a possible escape route for a handful of you, but I doubt you have the spine it would take to choose this path. If you publicly resign, disavow the Don and BLOW THAT DAMN WHISTLE on all of the corrupt CRAP you witnessed or took part in while being a "good German" in Trump's service, you just might be able to regain enough credibility to avoid both prison and being spat on each time you are recognized for the rest of your days. One way or another, the piper must be paid.

Ladies and gentlemen---the President of the United States:

"I'm rubber; you're glue!
Bounces off me and sticks to you!
NEENER-NEENER!"

Questions?

A report from the trenches:

Our local paper printed a news item concerning Covid 19 testing now being available at one of our medical facilities.

FIRST Facebook comment: "Great! Good to finally have testing available!"

SECOND Facebook comment: "No! Only if you are sick. If have too many positives, governor will keep us shut down!"

Again, welcome to my world.

So, Georgia has a problem with an invasion of four and a half foot lizards that eat "anything

they want".

I wonder---could they trap a couple dozen and release them on the Mar-A -Lago grounds?

No one in the Obama administration asked that Gen. Flynn be "unmasked".

Several, though,did ask that the unnamed US citizen who was having frequent extended telephone conversations with Putin's ambassador be unmasked and that Putin pal turned out to be Flynn.

I have no doubt that Trump and his base are too damn stupid to understand that if Biden, Brennan and others had KNOWN it was Flynn talking with Kislyak, there would have been no need to "unmask" him. But, do you know who DOES understand that? BARR---and that means that what the others do ignorantly, he does intentionally.

In a just world, Mr. Barr would die in prison. To quote his boss: "We'll see what happens."
