It is rare to find writing that infuses humor into a sad situation. The character of our present dictator is summarized in this column. Great choice of descriptive words. (At times, I have to look up a word used by this columnist, which I find refreshing.)<br /><br />The humor in Neil's column caused a number of chuckles. This is an era when we need a sense of humor to get through it.

Go ahead and vote for the guy with the loud voice who hates minorities, threatens his opponents, doesn't give a shit about democracy, claims he can fix everything, acts on hunches, and causes the deaths of staggering numbers of his own people.

First, he doesn't need to pile on -- his minions and the media are keeping the spotlight shining on Biden, regardless.<br /><br />More significantly, this plays right into a more essential line of reasoning that he seeks to promote. If, indeed, the accusation against Biden is false, well then... the 20?, 30?, dozens? of accusations against our Maximum Leader must be false, too, right? That's just obvious. Not to mention dear old Brett Kavanaugh and the merciless treatment he received, when he just liked to drink beer, for crying out loud. False equivalency is the only response that most of his die-hard supporters know how to implement in the face of each and every outrage that their guy is guilty of, after all.

There are lots of bad folks out there -- but how many so demonstrably manage to hit for the "seven deadly sins" cycle?<br /><br />I just love the fact that Neil tosses in a succinct reference to Rabelais, with no explanatory clause, in a daily newspaper. There's not a chance in hell that Orange Foolius knows who Rabelais is, despite his gargantuan appetites and Ivy League degree.

That ship sailed long ago.<br /><br />Trump himself has been oddly subdued about this, with none of the crowing we've come to expect, so far. Maybe he's developing a sense of shame, or at least of what is and isn't appropriate. But I doubt it. I'm sure that as the election approaches, he'll be back to his usual crass tweets.Bitter Scribehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04645909858616987997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3972382144120426476.post-73242290514212207912020-05-04T08:24:13.609-05:002020-05-04T08:24:13.609-05:00I don't want to put ideas in anyone's head...I don't want to put ideas in anyone's head, but wouldn't it be interesting if both Trump and Biden died (of natural causes of course) before the election.<br /><br />john<br />tatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06215684866966011198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3972382144120426476.post-14396911314061207402020-05-04T07:59:35.980-05:002020-05-04T07:59:35.980-05:00Sure, the Trump supporters allow anti-choice and p...Sure, the Trump supporters allow anti-choice and pro-gun rhetoric to cloud their vision of Trump but lets not forget what his mantra was..."Build that wall."<br />White nationalism is also a common thread that ties this group together. <br />The GOP has always found a way to flip the story.
