“and don't speak too soon
for the wheel's still in spin”
----Bob Dylan
He is a turd on the run. The days of reckoning are fast approaching. Disgustus, once the predator is now the prey. He is the proverbial cornered rat. With the fast changing political landscape, our Disgustus is found scurrying from Nebraska down to Alabama in desperate attempts to rally his dwindling political forces in what is increasingly a lost cause.
Two years ago, it didn't look like this. Stoked with 270 million dollars by Felon Musk, the South African rat, and buoyed by the always reliable strains of racism and misogyny, Disgustus, as Karl Rove and Dubya before him, crowed that we had now entered the promised land. A new 'permanent majority' was now at hand and ReSCUMlickans would reign forever. Enough self-hating Latinos and Uncle Toms had now joined forces with White Nationalists to ensure that they would rule, if not forever, for at least the next half century.
This, of course, is what the Greeks would call hubris. Somehow this political platform, constructed as it is out of middle class angst and upper class greed, minority aspirations and white racism, would hold together under the combined impact of tRUMP's unfathomable ignorance and the mendacity of Stephen Miller's ICE raids. The internal contradictions quickly unraveled the movement, as black males and Lastinos, who held their noses and their breath long enough to cast their votes for the Orange Turd in '24 have recovered their sense of smell and are now nowhere to be found. White farmers and ranchers, savaged by his tariffs, crippled by his immigration policies, and stung by his importation of foreign beef, are now in open revolt. The stench that always precedes a tRUMP arrival hanging over his presence like a waste treatment facility, has proved too overpowering. Ignorance, like we used to say of virginity is its own punishment.
Our Caesar has spoke too soon. He told us that if we voted for him in '24 that we would never need to vote again. Now, he finds that Texas is in play, Latinos, especially along the Rio Grande river valley, terrorized by Miller's Gestapo tactics, his building of concentration camps, and his raids upon schools, cathedrals and farms have quickly driven them back into the arms of the Democrats. So too is Kansas, Nebraska and, increasingly places like Iowa, Idaho and Montana where ranchers and farmers, under siege by the implementation of determined ignorance feel the sting of his trade and tariff policies, his gutting of USAID, food stamps, and school lunch programs; his terrorizing of farm labor by Miller's thugs; his raising the cost of fertilizer and diesel fuel by his ill conceived and incompetently conducted war with Iran. Hell, even Senate races in Florida and South Carolina are now in play. Disgustus, increasingly, has nowhere to run.
On Sunday we found him in Alabama sweating and stinking before a crown measured in mere hundreds. His recently launched 'tRUMP TV' a YouTube like venture has gathered a mere handful of viewers, fewer than 8 hundred at 'launch'. Podcasts featuring toenail clipping have greater audiences.
He, and his bowel movement, have become unbearable with job approval numbers now in Nixonian territory. With his body deteriorating, his mind rotting, and his political movement disintegrating, the Grim Reaper, both figurative and literal, stands impatiently outside the door. His days are numbered.
An' Bre'er Putin, he jus' stand back and holds his nose.
Another “No Kings” protest is to be held on Saturday.
Impeach. Convict. Imprison.
