When a blogger has a bad day

Doesn’t it feel like we’re being punked?  I wake up everyday to hear or read some other “this really can’t be happening” bit of info.  Honestly starting with that stupid wall, then he bans immigrants from seven nations that never attacked us (sound familiar?)  The country’s that have the history of attacks are the ones he leaves alone.  Does that make sense to anyone else?  What else, he’s going to reverse the order to allow the mentally ill to purchase guns?  He’s going to reverse the regulations previously set by the Interior Department barring coal-mining companies from conducting any activities that could permanently pollute streams and other sources of drinking water, because I guess it doesn’t really matter who we kill with polluted streams and lands as long as we can put people back to work.  Right?  We don’t need to breathe or drink water apparently.  And then what was today?? Something about repealing a law that would enforce Investment counselors to keep their “client’s” interest in mind – so now I guess you can be lied to and lose your money and not have any recourse or be able to hold your counselor accountable. Too bad for you.

Then I actually heard that he thinks Frederick Douglass is someone who is living? (read up on Frederick Douglass here) – You know it’s okay if “we” are not quite familiar with Mr. Douglass.  Many of us slept through history but he said this during a Black History Month event.  I mean aren’t you the least bit embarrassed for him?

And how about when he announces at the National Prayer Breakfast that he wants them to pray for Arnold Schwarzenegger and the ratings for The Apprentice?

And he picks a fight with Australia?  AUSTRALIA?

You just can’t make this shit up. Although “they” can make up stuff with alternative facts – like the Bowling Green Massacre.  Let’s just start making up shit – on top of the real shit.

There ae 318 million people in the US according to the US Census from 2014. Out of that 318 million, 242 million are adults, of voting age. Of 242 million, 63 million people voted for Trump.  That leaves 179 million adults to deal with his shit.  Not to mention 76 million under 18 that he’s supposed to be working in the best interest of.  How is this possible?  How did we let these 63 million people decide the other 255 million’s fate?  So 25% of the people are responsible for this. Do you see why EVERYONE must vote??  Well I hate to say it but we deserve this fate.  If that many people thought he was better than the other, or didn’t think it made a difference well kind of a good wake up call.  Everyone was so afraid of Hillary and her emails on the wrong effing server that we elected this moron that probably doesn’t even know what a server is. Does anyone for one minute think he’s using a secure server? Something is wrong.  Something is very very wrong.

Well this is probably going to be the last of my outrage…because I.Just.Can’t.  Is that how we write it now for emphasis? My doctor and I discussed the possibility of me having a stroke and well I told her I didn’t want to know (she actually could have given me a percentage of probability) I figured it would just worry me more than necessary. I’m not going to have a stroke because I am going to stay away from the news, the radio, Facebook and thank God I don’t have TV.  Mom of course wants me to keep her informed with what is going on in the world.  But again I.Just.Can’t.  Although this really is not the time to not do anything.  We see now what happens when we do nothing. So today I’ll let off some steam and then I will try and go back to being normal. Although my normal these days is probably a lot like this day.

Well don’t take my word for it.  The rest of the world thinks we’re the biggest idiots that ever lived, that our President is a complete moron, and I’m going to guess Iran will be bombing us before long. He’s going to get us all killed because of 25%.  Of course that will somehow be Obama’s fault.  Well let’s just hope I am being overly dramatic, over exaggerating. Because well you know, he’s so “sane” I’m sure he’s got this all under control.

I don’t want to compare but really the people who “hated” Obama? Really?  Really? Obama might not have been a very effective President, I didn’t love him a lot of the time, although I sure do now in comparison, but what did he do that was so wrong?  I don’t get it.  He was respected around the world. The world.  Here’s a guy that never had a scandal, certainly one of the most intelligent people on the planet, well never mind.  It doesn’t matter. He was black. I guess that’s all that mattered, right? The good ole boys have taken over now – they’ll just do whatever the hell they want.  If they get “blocked” by the senate or whoever they’ll just change the rules – that’s how Democracy works right?

God Bless America.

  1. The rest of the world doesn’t think you (as a country) are the biggest idiots that ever lived. We think the tool in charge, his puppets, and all of the people who voted for him are. We see the protests. We see the rebellion. We know what’s going on.

    It isn’t just Americans affected by Trump’s actions, the whole world is on some level. No country is an island. Well, some are, but you know what I mean.

  2. Tell it like it is, girlfriend! Great post – I am wondering how I can put your link to your blog onto my Facebook page and gather a few more peeps to your followers. Tell me how.
    I’m going today to an “indivisible L.A.” meeting. There ARE things to do.
    It helps! We do get results, though it takes a village. A huge village.
    Because of engaged people, here’s what we did so far:
    1. Federal hiring freeze is reversed for VA (Veteran Affairs).
    2. Court order Partial stay of the immigration ban for those with valid visas.
    3. Green card holders can get back in country.
    4. Uber pledges $3M and immigration lawyers for its drivers after #DeleteUber trends on Twitter.
    5. Obamacare (Affordable Care Act) enrollment ads are still going to air.
    6. The ACLU raised 24M over the weekend (normally 3-4Mil/year).
    7. HHS, EPA, USDA gag order lifted.
    8. EPA climate data no longer scrubbed from website.
    9. More people of different career/religious/economic/race backgrounds are considering running for political office than ever before.
    10. The government said they were issuing waivers to nearly 1000 refugees to be allowed the country, despite the refugee ban.
    11. MOST importantly, since we live in a participatory democracy, the people are engaged.
    While more is needed, sometimes you have to celebrate your wins.

    So, keep blogging, keep talking, keep writing, keep calling.
    People can find their rep info on: https://www.usa.gov
    Once in, up at the top, click onto “gov agencies & elected officials” and start working. It’s gonna be a long haul but it’s all we have.
