Post-Culture Review @PostCultRev Dude has pardoned literal child murderers and the thing that gets them mad is he suggested actually giving a little extra to poor people.'

    I am disgusted beyond words; with Trump, with his enablers, with those who have back and said nothing, with his cult of followers, with the entire Republican party. He's worse than Nero fiddling while Rome burned, he's pouring gasoline on the fire.

    Dear Lord:

    This last year has been very, very hard. You have taken my favorite actors, Sean Connery, Kirk Douglas and Diana Rigg; my favorite television host, Alex Trebek; my favorite 50's singer, Little Richard; even Charlie Daniels and Kenny Rogers, my two favorite country western singers. And from sports you took Gale Sayers and my favorite basketball player Kobe Bryant.

    I just wanted you to know that my favorite politicians are Donald Trump, Mitch McConnell, Ted Cruz, John Cornyn and Lindsey Graham.

    Amen.

    If that will do it, I add my big AMEN to Wren's prayer!!! Seriously, I have never wished for people to actually DIE before the Age of Donald Trump. I have also never sworn so much in my whole entire life as I have in the last 4 years. I am coming out of this a really mean pirate!!!!

    Welcome "home," QuinnCat--we missed you. Is your part of CA still "red?"

    My sincere wish is that out on the golf course at Mar-a-Lago, while Trump's back is turned, everyone behind him forgets to yell "FORE!" when they swing. Death by golf-ball would be SO fitting.

    Meanwhile, I hope Congress hasn't formally adjourned--so long as they are technically in session, if 10 days (not counting Sundays & federal holidays) pass without a veto or signature, it has not been "pocket-vetoed" but rather automatically becomes law. Pence plans to formally declare Biden the winner on Jan. 6, and then get the hell outta Dodge, heading to Israel and Bahrain. He may never come back, foreclosing any attempt to have him invoke the 25th Amendment, take the Oath of Office, and pardon Trump. I really don't think the Trumps will return to the WH either--just lay low golfing & skiing.

    Wren, that is a perfect prayer. I have a couple more names for the last list, but you know they are almost interchangeable as on that side almost all are worthy in some way.

    As well I can identify with a change in things I'm now willing to say. I may not feel them totally 100 % but oh boy, how easy to think and say. It has been such a shock to not only see how easy for the Reps. to fall in line behind Trump, but so painful to realize there were so many people who have little if any care for their fellow travelers on this Earth. The only consolation for me is that there are more good people than bad, more loving than hateful and more I think who have the ability to change rather than stay rigid.

    I do know in the last case, for the most part those who were changing were conservatives that realized what would happen to their party if Trump were allowed to go forward. So, yes, it was out of selfishness and party preservation -- but at least they could see it and DID respond, even if not completely altruistically.

    I hope it is possible to change when our government is far better. I also hope that we Democrats become better over-all. I am a Democrat because I think it has always been the better party, but anything decent usually needs refining along the way as to what works for all. We won't be there for a long time.

    I am happy about this but rather surprised. I really think the push-back must have been pretty heavy to be able to get through to Trump who I think was enjoying doing pay-back. Someone must have told him how much more hated he was going to be and how many more historical derogatory things would be plastered to pages connected with his time in office.

    Axios

    Trump agrees to sign COVID relief bill, averting government shutdown

    Why it matters: Trump's delay in signing the $900 billion stimulus bill and $1.4 trillion government funding measure caused unemployment benefits for millions of Americans to lapse overnight.

    Hoo-boy! After all that, Jackie, I think you're right:

    He was told or it hit him how much more he'd be hated than he already is if he didn't do this....

    Hmmmm....

    Or, sadistic whims satisfied, did he just feel he'd gotten his pound of flesh out of it?


    Ruth--It's not LIKE dealing with a two-year-old-- he IS a two-year-old!

    Now wondering what the next insult will be -- or maybe Trump will concentrate on pardons again for a bit -- just to throw us off a little.

    He makes me sick. To hold millions in thrall to his whims, his ferocious insecurities, hostage to his sociopathic needs! How wrong if we thought we'd put evil to bed when Hitler shot himself. Evil can take so many forms. (Hitler was a sophisticated deep thinker compared to Trump!) It can look like a temper-tantrum-throwing toddler....

    I wouldn't be surprised if right now he's grinning, envisioning himself as the Hero, swooping in, pen in hand, to "rescue" us (yeah, rescue us from his own cruelties, indifferences, and wickednesses.)

    They speak of Madoff and his ilk who compartmentalize--keep their nefarious deeds separate from their wives, husbands, kids, friends, domestic world...I think Trump is so compartmentalized his brain spread out would probably resemble a honeycomb, made up of hundreds of rooms, thin-walled, ugly as one of his lousy hotels.....

    Yeah, well you know he is going to turn around now and make McConnell give us all more money because that is what hero's do. Then we are all going to be so sorry we ever doubted orange slug. We will all say such nice things, and maybe even help the Reps. take the election away from -- ah, well NOT. Trump is just afraid of jail and losing all his money -- a lot of it being a lie anyway. I think he can sell that stupid coat Melania bought for Christmas. Over $6,000.00. Most of us are lucky if we can pay more than $60.00 for a coat.

    When some time has passed I think this four yrs. will seem almost unbelievable, but I plan to remember and remind when necessary. No one should ever forget this time -- so much that didn't have to happen or at least nearly as bad were it not for a WH full of criminals and a**holes.

    So Uncle Scam signed the bill, but "red-lined" portions he didn't like. Idiot doesn't know there's no such thing in Federal law as a "line-item veto." Signing a bill enacts the entire bill, vetoing a bill kills the whole thing unless resurrected by Senate override. He could Sharpie-doodle all over it (all 600+ pages, which I'm sure he read between holes of golf--yeah, right) to no effect.

    Still no motive for that Nashville explosion (which turned out to be a self-immolation as well). I'd have said that there are less extreme ways to express one's distaste for country music, or resentment over being denied a recording or publishing deal--but if so, he'd have blown up Music Row, not downtown.

    Super-creepy is that after the final recorded warning just before the explosion, the perp's RV was playing the first lines of Petula Clark's "Downtown." Yet another song ruined forever. Was also dismayed to see the Old Spaghetti Factory was destroyed--it was always a go-to for us whenever when in Nashville we got tired of BBQ, There is speculation that because of the location in front of an AT&T relay building, the guy could have been a QAnon follower or other conspiracy-theory nut believing that AT&T, cell towers and 5G are plots to spy on our thoughts and control our brains (just before the pandemic, just such a yo-yo came to our alderman's town hall meeting, handed out flyers, and babbled on incoherently when called upon during the Q&A period). But speculation is no more valid than are conspiracy theories.
