I knew he would put us through hell between the election and Biden’s inauguration. In fact, once I got through the nerve-wracking hurdle of determining that Biden had won, I turned my angst to: “Now what?” Gulp. And here we are!
Ultimately, it’s pathetic. The coward asshat hasn’t uttered a word in public for a full week, which is unheard of, albeit welcome to the vast majority of us earthlings. (His silence is the concession, and probably all we’ll get from him. Which is fine, right? I’ve thoroughly enjoyed NOT hearing his grating, low-intelligence, godawful voice). He claims fraud with no evidence. He has ordered numerous court filings that have all failed (because no evidence, and also idiotic assertions, and the judges have reamed the asses of his lawyers). He has forbidden any of the U.S. agencies from accepting contact from the Biden team for transition protocol. The GSA administrator, who releases funds and provides passwords, office space, equipment, and transition access to all of the agencies—a standard given immediately after the president-elect is called—refuses to sign the letter that releases all of that protocol and allows the transition to move forward. Thankfully, Joe has been fine with circumventing this, since he knows the government and knows a lot of the people and knows how to get around much of this shit. But, it’s true that his blocked access to trump’s Covid team means that a lot more people than who need to, will die.
Trump has even prohibited anybody in the White House to even utter Joe Biden’s name or else they will be fired. Think about that. Tin Pot Dictator Shit. Oh! And also, he’s fired the Secretary of Defense, as well as a number of his high level defense deputies, 70 days before the transfer of power, so I figure our global adversaries are fully aware and may well take advantage of all of this failure. What is his intent? He’s installed completely unqualified, politically extremist, experience-absent people in these important positions. Is it just because he perceives our military as not “loyal” enough—to HIM, and so he’s doing his final punishment? Or is he building an army of radical, extremist loyalists to try to secure his “rule?” Is that what this is?
I’d love to hear from my brother about this. He supports trump, thinks he’s “all that.” Is demolishing our democracy A-Ok?
I expect crickets.
