November 1, 2024: Garbage Man, Stench of Death, Skulduggery Afoot

 

At a campaign event, our once and future Caesar Disgustus was recorded approaching, uncertainly, a garbage truck. With some difficulty he opened the cab door and climbed inside. Wrong end of the machine, I thought to myself. Smiling and waving he rode off into the sunset and, as he passed, a huge Trump for President sign appeared on the business end of the vehicle. How appropriate.


Caesar Disgustus has always been nothing but garbage, and rotting stinking garbage at that. This campaign has the stench of death about it, and it is appropriate that he should now be seen taken out with the rest of the trash.


He can't fill a respectable high school auditorium. Many of those who do show up are soon seen filing out the doors, mid-speech, as he mindlessly drones on, careening from subject to subject, often at mid sentence in an endless, senseless word salad so incomprehensible even his most devout maggot cannot digest.


Nevertheless, I am worried. Steve Bannon, tRUMP's 2016 campaign manager and the troll under every bridge, was quoted as saying that “the Democrats won't know what hit them”. I suspect skulduggery afoot.


The polls show the election narrowing, some even show Disgustus in the lead. But the “cross tabs” show otherwise with Harris leading by several points among independents. The electorate, divided among Independents, Democrats and Republicans in that order. Harris leads among Independents and among women. With independents being the largest of the three voting blocks, and women who vote in greater percentages and are 52 percent of the population, it is difficult to see how Disgustus can fashion a plurality, much less a majority, given those numbers. That is, unless there is villainy afoot.


It has become ReSCUMlickan practice to flood the polling at this time of year. In recent election cycles polls no one has ever heard of pop up yielding surprising ReSCUMlickan performances. This, I fear is done to build momentum in the final days and lay the predicate for falsely claiming, in the aftermath, that the election was “stolen” from them. A famous tRUMP tactic to keep himself front and center and relevant in exile. It worked the last time, it kept him on the front pages for Biden's entire term. In fact, it stole Biden's presidency.


In any case, given the history of this party fucking with elections, I wouldn't put anything past them.
