Wear brown.


It is after all, a shitshow....

I'm pretty sure I was dressed mostly in black...for the death of decency in this country.

Trump doesn’t want to be president. He hates being president. He’ll flap just enough to save face, then go whinging off into the sunset. He’ll mollify his followers by spending the rest of his life complaining about how the election was stolen from him.

He has to be president. Once he leaves his squat he's in a whole host of legal trouble and he'll be penniless.

The only way he doesn't die in jail, methinsk, is if Putain sicks his goons on Trump first.

To be honest, decency in this country, such as it is, has been dying since 1980, put on life support by 1994, were in a vegetative state by 2008, cremates by 2016, and ashes scattered into a dumpster by 2017.

Trump will win by a landslide ... civil unrest in a democracy is always better than communism.

The truth is who ever wins isn't going to change the fact that the world is about to enter a deep depression between now and the next 18 months starting with a massive stockmarket crash within the next 6 months... I want the arsehole to win so he can cop the worst 4 years in recent American history. It couldn't happen to a better man.

Just because you're in a place of deep depression, don't be projecting.

There is absolutely no reason why that has to be true, even if we ignore the fact that a whole lot of different things can be called democracy and communism by different people, and the pool of things that are sometimes called democracy by some people and the pool of things that are Sometimes called communism by some people overlaps, and even those two “some peoples” May partially overlap. 

For example, many right wingers still call Pinochet’s regime in Chile “Democracy”, and Scandinavian Style social democracy “communism”.

Also, I think it is absolutely not just for reasons of idle pedanticism and Interpretive technicalities of electoral college system that right wingers at Faux news and our very own OLB sound out and push the proposition that this country is a “republic and not democracy”.
