If there was any doubt that Trump is unhinged, the last 24 hours verified it. In that time frame, he has insulted Native Americans and Liz Warren, dissed the Democrats to such an extent that a government shutdown appears likely, said that he thinks the Hollywood Access tape is fake, even though he already said it was true, accused Obama of being from Kenya AGAIN and now just tweeted three anti-Muslim videos that have pissed off just about everyone not a racist, including the British whose video feeds were shared through a right wing site and tweeted by Trump. When is it going to be too much because I crossed that line a few years back. What is wrong with some people in this country? Hillary was dead on that way too many are irredeemable deplorables in this country and a reckoning is coming if they continue trying to force fascism down out throats.
Who exactly still supports this lunatic? Evangelicals apparently who must now be treated like the American Taliban. These fuckers need to go. Treat anyone from this religion like a leper. Show them how actual discrimination feels like. They want the ability to pick and choose who they do business with, that sword swings both ways assholes. Show up outside their churches and scream hateful things at them. Follow them home and do the same thing. Treat them like they have been treating us. These fuckwads are STILL supporting Roy Moore who is one of the most unfit for office people in all of American History. If you are worse than Sarah Palin or any Bush, you've achieved quite the accomplishment. When Democrats get control of both houses, which now may actually happen come 2018 considering the amount of damage they are about to do, a reckoning will happen.
The Tax bill may actually pass the Senate and then the real problems start. It will go to committee where they will hash out bringing the two together. That is where this whole thing will most likely implode because what the House wants, the Senate doesn't and vice versa. Stuff that people like Corker and Collins want will be stripped from the final bill as it has no chance of passing the House. But take those things out, and the Senate bill dies. As they are forcing this thing through with little regard to how it works, just like Obamacare, and no idea what is in the final bill,we have no idea if it will pass. Considering there has been no vote today to advance it says they are still shy of the votes needed for passage.
The funny part about this is is that this bill will not work. As a matter of fact, it may spell the end of Republican control of Congress. Some House representatives, like Peter King (NY) knows if this bill passes, he has no chance of reelection. I don't care how Republican you are, no one votes for someone who just doubled their taxes. And that is exactly what is going to happen in high tax states, all blue, all coastal. Any Republican in those states, 63 to be exact, are going to lose and lose badly. That alone will give control back to Democrats and that is not counting other places they might win, giving them even a chance at the Senate, as this tax bill may be so unpopular, it could sink their majority overall.
Of course they may still lose a vote in Alabama which shows a clear trend of Roy Moore losing support. Some have crowed that recent polls with Moore show he still has a lead, but either those polls were highly suspect or showed a severe downward trend. Emerson polls showed Moore up 22 points in September. In October that dropped to 10. It's now down to six. And that poll showed way higher support for Moore than any other. But even as an outlier, the downward pattern is obvious. Doug Jones could still win in Alabama, which would be a huge upset for Republicans and a big hearty laugh for the rest of us.
But as the Tax plan and out insane president dicker, North Korea is leading us toward war. Chances of us getting into some sort of skirmish with them is near 100%. There is only one option at this point and no president since Kennedy has done it. Draw a line in the sand with North Korea, Russia and China. Tell Russia and China they can either help us or face the end of the world. Give them until the end of the month to show demonstrable efforts to side line North Korea. If at that time, a full blockade of all goods and services to North Korea isn't implemented, we will have no choice but to launch and all out nuclear strike on the country. And if either China or Russia so much as look like they are helping, the world ends and we all die. Kennedy threatened Armageddon versus the Russians and meant it. We need to do the same now. You are with is or against us. If the planet has to die because they are too stupid to realize this has gotten out of control, so be it. Better to die on your feet than live on your knees. If we let this get to a place where North Korea does have parity with us, the chances of WW3 are near 100%. There is no way he doesn't invade the South, thinking because he has nukes, we won't do anything. Chances are high we will and no one survives. We have run out of road people and the choices are stark. No matter what, millions are going to die next year. Bet on it.
So we have an insane president more interested in starting a race war than dealing with the problems we have. We have a Congress more interested in grab ass and stealing from the public blind. And we have a public too stupid to know better. Enjoy Christmas because there won't be another one. Happy Holidays all.
