Somebody Save Us
Wow…political events have all of a sudden gotten very “exciting.” Trump got winged in the ear and Biden stepped out of the presidential race leaving the vice president the “front-runner".'“ Since I have friends from both political parties - and those that fall all over the political spectrum - I’ve been seeing a lot of memes and posts in my Facebook news feed and over Messenger. Some funny. Some quite a stretch. But let me ask every single one of you this question:
What has our government done for you? In your entire LIFE, what has the government done for YOU? What makes one political party better than the other? Neither will own up to their fuck-ups; neither will do WHAT IS CORRECT AND TRUE for AMERICANS; neither will EVER know the struggle most of us “little people” endure day in and day out; neither party WANTS the American people to think for ourselves. The only thing ALL political parties WILL DO is say what will get them elected or re-elected, and to do that is to create division.
Oh. Look. They’ve done that.
Now, there are some who think Trump is the messiah or something. Funny, I remember the Democrat party heralding Obama as the messiah some years ago, so…sumbody lyin’. Personally, I don’t like Trump. He’s a narcissist if I’ve ever seen one and quite frankly, this country has enough narcissism - we don’t need someone that’s the frigging embodiment of it. Having said that, I will say out of all the presidents I’ve had in my lifetime, Trump was THE ONLY ONE to make good on his campaign promises - not that I, nor the majority of Americans were able to see a demonstrable benefit, but the man did most of what he promised he’d do. Granted, there’s no wall, but then COVID “happened” and that pretty much derailed those plans.
Kinda interesting that, innit?
Anyway, COVID and the fuckery that wrought. But let’s blame Biden for the economy going to shit and groceries costing 3 times as much. Lest you “maga” people forget, it was Trump who shut the country down. Before you say, “Oh, it was Fauci,” don’t forget that presidential orders are a thing and Trump could have done what Obama did with N1H1 back in 2009. Abso-fucking-lutely nothing. DESPITE the fact N1H1 was a real virus - it’s called swine flu and has been around FOR YEARS - no closing of borders, no lock downs, nothing. All Trump had to do was put on his big boy undies and tell the Democrats to shut the fuck up - he’s the American president and he’s doing what’s best for Americans.
Except, lest we all forget, Trump is a businessman. As such, he’s not stupid. Businesses will NOT suffer loss of profits. Period. And even during COVID, prices rose. Sure some was supply and demand, but most was corporate greed. Then the supply line got hit and toilet paper became scarce, along with thousands of other things. It was a fucking nightmare and Trump was to thank for it. I fucking lived 2020 taking care of my dying husband and getting fucking NOODLES was like finding a goddamned unicorn - don’t fucking tell me the growing prices and lack of anything is Biden’s fault.
No, the fault of Biden is in his lack of doing ANYTHING for the American people. Oh, he did PLENTY for business - take a look at which companies posted RECORD PROFITS for the last 4 years. Record profits that beat their previous year’s record breaking profits. But he did jack shit for everyone else. Those profitable companies CERTAINLY didn’t pass those profits down to their employees, and Biden could have done something about that. But he didn’t. He was more worried about the Ukraine, and constantly nagging Russia about what they were doing. Honestly it was like watching an old guy yelling at the neighbor kids to quit their bickering. No lie, I was waiting for Biden to tell them to get off of his lawn. Why did people vote for him again?
Back to current events. Quite frankly, I find the whole “assassination attempt” to have been a publicity stunt. I’m sorry Trump’s son had to witness it - my heart breaks for the poor boy - but this whole thing reeks. For starters, it was like the Secret Service agents weren’t in a real hurry to cover the man. The audience behind Trump weren’t in a hurry to take cover. And the shot…it stinks of the JFK assassination. Any sniper with ANY modicum of talent would not have missed if Trump was, indeed, someone the sniper was assigned to take out. I think this was some bullshit cooked up by the RNC if not Trump himself - as if they needed to do something to win against a doddering old man. If so, shame on him and the entire Republican party for putting that boy through watching his father get shot. If it was the Democrat party, then, well, it’s about par for the current state of the Democrat party - fuck it up, cover it up, and blame “the other guy.” Kinda like January 6, 2021.
We CAN do better and we SHOULD do better

Now, it’s no secret I have ZERO respect for ANY person in ANY federal office. Frankly, every single one of them has only proven they just want a turn at the trough. Don’t believe me? Look at their earnings prior to running and taking office and compare that to their earnings upon dismissal of office, either by retirement, death or their constituents elected someone else. Think Trump hasn’t increased his own earnings? Check it. Do some digging and think for yourself and draw YOUR own conclusions - don’t let anyone spoon-feed you. You will find that, yes, Donald Trump has made a veritable fortune as the president either by way of his hotels or his other business ventures. Anyone who thinks just because he took an oath he just let his business set for four years is either naive, stupid or part of the fucking problem.
Biden withdrew from the 2024 lying contest…I’m sorry, election campaign, and now the VP is the one Trump needs to beat. First off, why is this a surprise to ANYONE with half a gnat’s brain? For fucks sake, my CHICKENS knew Biden was gonna withdraw and we aren’t even political at my house! And now, because it’s Kamala Harris, everyone is all a tither for whatever dumbass reason. I’m not going to lie, when she announced her election campaign back before the 2020 elections, I was curious about her positions. She had some pretty good ideas, but that’s all they were - ideas. I wanted to know how she was gonna make them realities. Unfortunately she got bribed by either Biden’s campaign or the DNC to withdraw her election bid and we never heard more from her except sound bites curated for the media once it was clear she was going to be Biden’s running mate. Frankly as it sits, the woman has no gumption and she folds like paper. She has no substance; no backbone. Kinda like Trump with COVID in 2020.
I’m gonna be straight up. I ain’t gonna change what I’ve done for the last 12 years on election day. Go to work, bite my tongue when people laud how they’ve done their “patriotic duty” and voted and watch the shitshow we call an election unfold without casting my vote. “Oh, then you don’t get to bitch cuz you didn’t vote.” Really? We are supposed to be voting for someone who represents us and ain’t a goddamned swinging cock or dried up cunt running for president even comes CLOSE to representing me, nor understand the challenges I face as an American. Do you really think EITHER of them know how much a gallon of milk costs? Do you really think either of them knows what a gallon of gas costs -if they knew that then maybe they’d stop with the forty fucking limos just to take the president to the fucking airport. NEITHER of them represent ME. If they represent you, then by all means vote for the devil you know, but I’m done with having to choose between Satan and frigging Lucifer - it’s the same damned person just dressed up different. This year, I might just take the high road; maybe get stoned; maybe have too much of something terrible (God I love that song - I think I still have some shit to process from the ex).
Anyhoo, just my few cents on the political drama unfolding. It’s a smokescreen for something else, it’s a publicity stunt, it’s a piss poor assassination attempt - take your pick. Just stop sending me memes about it. Send me chicken videos. Or cat videos. Or dog videos. I’ll even accept spider and snake ones. Just no more political shit since all the federal government has done for me is made my life much harder than it needs to be.
