We had a shit load of rain yesterday, anywhere from 2 - 5 inches. We're supposed to have more storms this afternoon. And tomorrow. And Tuesday. And heavy thunderstorms on Wednesday.
I only left work 15 minutes early yesterday - that's fine.
Being that it is Sunday, I made pancakes for breakfast - early. The dogs go me up around 0430. They have no idea what the hour is, or that I might want to sleep a little early. The were rewarded yesterday for going out in the rain - they hate getting wet, however they love biscuits more, besides, they think toweling them off is some sort of game.

A lot of you are wondering when this nightmare is going to end. The answer is probably a bit more complicated than you want to hear. After he was elected, I gave him 2 years... well we've got about 6 months left. If you look at what Republicans are saying on the sidelines, and, more important, what they are not, they almost in panic mode, not about the Idiot Jerk, but about what he's doing to their party. You see their Conservative, hardcore base is small. They rely on Centrist Republicans, Centrists, and feeble minded fools to get themselves and a president elected. The Centrist crowd is not liking this Russian bullshit at all. Their votes can no longer be counted. Instead of growing the base, the Idiot Jerk is constantly those voters so necessary for party survival.
To make matters worse, the military, which has always been reliably Republican, is being served turdburgers daily. They are more than a little upset by all this Russian bullshit.
The Idiot Jerk is on the verge of stepping across a line even the GOP can not ignore, and so, on the sidelines, they are quietly assessing the number of votes they have in congress should they choose to take the impeachment route (which daily seems more and more likely). They are preparing to move into damage control mode.
After that, we'll have to deal with Pence. His association with the Idiot Jerk will pretty much turn him into a wet noodle. His failure is certified.
Use your anger.
Grow the vote.
The GOP will have his back until his base no longer has his back, and then and only then,will they act like they can put country over party.
ReplyDeleteFuck 'em all.
Party Base will align with their decision, his base will not. There is a difference. They need the party base votes to get re-elected.
Deleteblueberry pancakes! YUM!
ReplyDeleteputzy pence is in thick with the russians also.
I can't wait for Trump to meet his demise. Then we get the ass Pence...a no win. Looking forward to the midterms so that we can start getting things back on track.
ReplyDeleteReconstruction will most like begin before Pence even gets voted out of office.
DeleteI wish they would grow balls and impeach the bastard. I know in some ways Pence is more evil, but I think he'd be easier to take out in an election, and I don't know trumps supporters are so loyal to him.
ReplyDeleteMeanwhile I made vanilla waffles today, with fruit. It was heavenly. No pool for me today, looks like rain acomin'
Didn't you get the rain yesterday? We had about 4"
DeleteOh, and you're so right about Pence
DeleteYes...we had a ton of rain yesterday, but today has been glorious here.
DeleteI think there won't be any serious talk of impeachment until after the midterms. If we can deliver a strong "blue wave" then we can start to take down Trump and his enablers. If the day ever comes when he's impeached, it's going to be a joy to behold!
ReplyDeleteHis ego is fragile to take an impeachment. I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't say 'fuck you America,' and leave for Russia.
DeleteI take the dogs to bed with me there is no getting up early
ReplyDeleteI must have big dogs with little bladders.
