Somebody Please Explain to Me

Somebody please explain to me why tArse, President Muskrat and the dysfunctional association formerly known as the Republican Party are hell bent on destroying the American economy, the social safety net, our relationship with the rest of the world, the climate, and on and on…

A  new day, and another day of a stock market meltdown.

A  new day, and another day of other countries responding to this unfathomable trade war.

A  new day, and another day of praising dictators and disparaging anyone not genuflecting to his Royal Assness.

Someone please enlightened me.  Try as I might, none of this makes a lick of sense to me that this clown alley of misanthropic, malevolent misfits are attempting to accomplish.

¿Tienes tú vergüenza de tu presidente?

I was doing my Spanish lesson via Skype with the young man in Guatemala, Manolo Castillo.  He is not big on talking politics which is fine by me.  I need a break from being so angry about our current political situation.   However, tonight he was telling me about a story he had read about DJT and he asked me “¿Tienes tú vergüenza de tu presidente?”  Are you not ashamed/embarrassed of your president.  All I could say was, “Claro que sí, mucho.”  Of course, a lot.’

The whole damn world knows he is a nut case except for the rednecks in the red states of this fine country.
