Dread Knock

Dread Knock

The closet nihilist in me
is really looking forward
to January twenty
when the orange shit
splatters the fan
and the clown show
rolls into town..

The day when our national penance
will commence
as our tribe wanders the wilderness
for four fucking years..

Such is the price of mass ignorance
compounded by the arrogance
of the dumb ass majority
awash in apathy
and emotion fueled delusions..

Maybe crash and burn
is the only way
for the fever to break
so the body politic
can purge this MAGA virus
from our national consciousness
once and for all..

Then again
maybe I'll be wrong
and this new administration
will be a hit sensation..

Perhaps the projected pessimism
is all in my negative head..

If so, I will be happily mistaken
because unlike the many zealot partisans
on my defeated side of the political divide
I want my country to succeed

I am never optimistic when people of such low moral character
are in charge, but let's see what happens

For myself as a Libertarian and one who never voted for Trump, I am relieved that liberal control of our country is falling apart.  Trump was only elected in 2016 and now in 2024 because of the BS from the left.  Everything you all have accused Trump of being you are.  Censorship weaponizing the DOJ, ALL of the real crimes the Biden family has done.  The greatest thing coming from the election is it shows how big of liars your party and the media are.  Biden stated the most important thing was to provide Truth to the American people, and then he pardon his son.  We all would have pardoned our son, that is not the issue.  The issue is he stated he wouldn't and he believed in letting the Jury decide it

I'm not going to bother debating the merits of Biden or the Dems because they are yesterday's news..

It's all on Trump and his crew now so let's see what they can do over the next four years,,  Zero excuses will be tolerated

Well you can always follow Ellen DeGeneres over here to Europe, it's all good over here, they lock people up in Europe for saying something offensive. Fantastic.
