    There are parts of this that are soooo true, but then there are the other things -- like Wren -- I'm afraid it is not going to be easy to rid ourselves of this orange menace -- and I do think even if Biden wins Trump will make as many issues as possible on the way to that win, and on leaving the WH.

Americans, even those who voted for Trump in 2016, just want it to stop. We are ALL tired of hearing his DAMNED NAME EVERY DAMNED HOUR OF EVERY DAMED DAY. We're tired of his Tweets, his comments, his family, his stunts, his smirk, his apologists, his bluster, his shuffle, his voice, and his face. We have simply had enough.'

    He won't leave unless Pence pardons him for all Federal crimes (past, present, and future--as Ford did for Nixon); but nobody can pardon him for state law violations, of which NY & DC have a ton. So he will hang on until he drops dead or bullies SCOTUS into declaring him the winner.

    So in the face of all these revelations about his dissing of our military & war dead/disabled, and recordings of his admission that he early on knowingly suppressed info about COVID, why is he still so beloved by his base? Because they haven't heard about any of it--it just doesn't get printed, posted or aired in their alt-right media bubble; and they are so brainwashed that when confronted with damning audio & video they just accuse it of being "deepfakes" (as the right itself is so skilled at creating). Unless and until he is caught on a hot mic dissing them as his dupes (maybe not even then--"deepfakery" again), they will stick with him because he hates whom they hate, incites them to keep fearing whom they already fear, encourages them to exercise their unfettered "liberties" (except defense of minorities and public criticism of him), and promises to elevate fetal lives over already-born, especially Black, lives.

    And as to Barr saying DOJ can rep Drumpf in civil suits against him (E. Jean Carroll) if his actions were a "routine" part of his functioning as President, can Carroll's lawyers have the judge order the DOJ to stay out of the case? Do they (or any citizens) have standing to challenge the legitimacy of the DOJ acting as his personal attorney (I don't know, especially since the appellate back-and-forth over the Emoluments Clause lawsuit hinges on the plaintiffs' standing to sue); and can the NYS Bar Assoc. (or whichever entity in NYC or NYS controls attorney registration & discipline) disbar Barr?

    Now I'd like to see karma come for Louis DeJoy. According to my USPS "Informed Delivery Daily Digest," there are 25 pieces of mail I was supposed to get since Thursday but they haven't arrived. Among them is the letter from UIC Health containing the access code to set up a MyChart patient portal account so I can finally read my biopsy path report to find out the prognostic markers for my ocular melanoma. But they won't text it or send it to me via e-mail, and because of the pandemic (and an impending nurses' strike) I can't get through to Patient Accounts via phone (and if I could, they likely would refuse to tell me). Not just that, but USPS claims that it tried to deliver 2 packages yesterday but "location could not be accessed." (My f-ing FRONT PORCH was inaccessible)? I've been home, sitting up front, for the past 2 days waiting--and I have the backache to prove it.

    I think it's time for Pence to cut bait, promise the Cabinet members he'll keep them on, and get the Cabinet and House Repugs. to vote to invoke the 25th Amendment. Pence is awful (a la Handmaid's Tale) but Trump will kill us all.

    Sandy, I do believe you are right. I think the latest fiasco ( sitting 18 times with Bob Woodward for interviews which now have tapes to back up what the orange one said ( rather hard to lie your way out of that ) should be certainly enough to help with the trump sins catalog of not really being a president. He is a golfer ( cheats at that too ) and when not golfing watches tv. Never was presidential -- too busy lining his pockets . So broke he has to have Barr defend his latest rape allegation and it is substantial because Barr wouldn't be helping him. Is there really anyone in the world right now that would loan him money?

    I think he'd have trouble getting cab fare across town.

    Nothing going right, almost everything going wrong and the sins are piling up higher and higher. Campaign out of money, Trump is up against it for coins, and his poll numbers have not really improved. Biden's have held steady. I'm not sure how the man gets up every day. Not much to look forward to it seems to me if your Trump. These rallies he is having of late don't seem to be moving the needle either. coming up on a week-end and maybe another book. Chickens seem to be finding their way home now. Yes, I sure think if I was Trump I'd have trouble trying to find a reason to keep banging my head against the wall. Apparently he does not think of what is going on as losses accruing on his side of the ledger.

    Trill: Karma -- the fickle finger of fate. Comes for you when you are not looking.

    Hi Di, I worked as a hospice nurse from 2013 until last April. My doc said it was too dangerous for me to be working in so many nursing homes, hospitals and private homes. It's ok, I had planned on retiring next May when I reach full social security age. It happened so suddenly that I was kind of in shock going from 90 MPH to the social isolation we are all going through. I have always gardened but this summer we grew almost all of our vegetables and it has been a lifesaver. My dog Henry and I go out first thing every morning to check on everybody, work until it gets too hot then we goof off. DH is very happy.

    Hospice was very fulfilling work - hard but worth it. I feel blessed.

    At this point, I don't even care if Trump serves any time for any crime. I would accept simply him being voted out of office on November 3rd. If he is voted out, I do not expect him to serve time regardless of who has what on him. I would be satisfied for him to just be gone and he go back to Maralago. He can be pardoned for all his sins, I don't care.

    We all remember President Gerald Ford's infamous phrase at his swearing in after Nixon resigned: β€œMy fellow Americans, our long national nightmare is over." That's all I want. That would be good enough for me.
