In the words of Jimmy Kimmel, “Shut up. Just shut up.”
There’s nobody to blame but yourself for the drubbing that the Republican Party took in Tuesday’s midterms. We were all sad when you did so well in 2024 — “triple whammy” as my gay, Irish, trump-loving ex-friend called it — and now it’s time for you to eat humble pie … which was predictable all along for anyone who’s ever read history.
Joining you two will also be my ex-friend in Texas, who I’m sure must be delighted to be living in a blue state again after leaving a blue state (Virginia) to be among like-minded MAGA morons in Texas. “Minded” being a “term of art”, because there are no actual minds involved in the term “MAGA”.
Anyway, we who predicted your inevitable fall have been gloating for the last two days, secure in the knowledge that when the pendulum swings the other way, which it inevitably will, you’ll be nowhere in sight, unless we happen to be doing a tour of famous and stupid peoples’ graves.
Yeah, you’ve got the power of the veto, but only someone as stupid and short-sighted as you could use that, and you will gum up the moronic American political system for the last two years of your LAME DONALD DUCK presidency, showing just how much you don’t care for the American people.
Such delicious irony. We’re looking forward to whatever trick you next pull out of your bag. Surprisingly we haven’t yet heard you say anything about a third term, but that will just be another in your long list of unconstitutional actions. We’re expecting the wounded animal to act like a wounded animal; we’re ready.
The reason we need to remember him is the same reason we need to remember any other fascist in history. That’s why you’re supposed to read and understand history before you run for office, so you don’t make the same mistakes that your predecessors have already made in the past. It’s why we teach history in schools.
As for my two ex-friends — who are “ex” of their own volition — you know who you are and I hope to welcome you back.
