What is Normal?
Author: BobR    Date: 12/16/2020 13:40:05

We are now just over a month away (36 days) from the end of the tRump pResidency. I have to be honest - I am sick of writing blogs about what a piece of shit he is. I am tired of being outraged on a daily basis over the jaw-dropping self-serving insanity he pelts us with constantly; it's exhausting. Imagine a world (he said in a deep dramatic voice) where normal politics force us to report on world events, the actual state of the environment, and other "normal" things. What a dream - to have everyday problems return.

But, since it's yet another day in this hellscape, we must look into the orange turd's crazy-bullshit-of-the-day. Remember way back on Nov 27th (Soooo long ago), when tRumpy said he'd leave office if Biden won after the Electoral College voted? Well of course he won't concede - he is physically and mentally incapable of acknowledging defeat. He is still at it:
The briefing came the day after the Electoral College voted to confirm Trump’s election loss, and hours after Senate Majority Mitch McConnell recognized Biden as the president-elect for the first time.

McEnany refused to acknowledge that the Electoral College sealed Trump’s election fate.

“The president is still involved in ongoing litigation related to the election,” she said. “Yesterday was one step in the constitutional process.”

There are just two steps left: the counting of the Electoral College votes in Congress, on Jan. 6, and the swearing in of Biden as president on Jan. 20, Inauguration Day.

McEnany said she had not spoken to the president about McConnell’s acknowledgement of Biden’s victory.

Funny that Putin congratulated Biden on the win shortly before McConnell did. Apparently, tRump wasn't happy about it:
President Trump told Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell in a tweet early Wednesday that it was too soon to "give up" after the Kentucky Republican conceded that President-elect Joe Biden won November's election.

"Republican Party must finally learn to fight," Trump added. "People are angry!"

In his tweet, the president shared an article titled "Trump's allies slam Mitch McConnell for congratulating Biden."

Well of course the cultists are going to slam McConnell. However, Moscow Mitch took his cues from Putin - not the increasingly irrelevant tRump. Some Republicans in the House (like their leader McCarthy) are unwilling to acknowledge the win. This will bite them in the ass.

tRump has hollowed out and destroyed the Republican party from within. Even long-time Republican stalwarts like Steve Schmidt are defecting to the Democratic party. Once the smoke clears from the rubble of the tRump presidency, and life returns to "normal", it may not be a normal that we recognize. That's something we should all be prepared for.

Morning

Mornin'!

Well then, I'm slowly getting things put away at the new house. And I realized the network cable I have is about... 2 feet too short at least. Or I need to move where the modem sits.

I slept so good last night. No noise from neighbors, no worrying about waking someone up when I walk.

Good morning. At least I don't have to go out in the storm. Not that I could walk in it anyway. Fat Donnie can't leave soon enough and I hear the neighbors don't want him living at Mar-a-lago.
