Trumpworld Knows What the Rest of Us Know: Its All Over But the Shouting
TWO DAYS AND COUNTING
The old tricks arent working. The October Surprise surprised nobody. Junior says nobodys dying. But like, a lot of people still are.

Madame Tussauds in Berlin dumped its wax version of Americas worst president in a dumpster in anticipation of Tuesdays election. But its not just about getting rid of wax sculptures that oddly look more lifelike than the president himself. The world seems like its ready to toss Donald Trump and his terrible administration into the dustbin of history. His old tricks seem to no longer be working. The 2016 playbook isnt even penetrating the mainstream media. Trump seems like he's malfunctioning, spreading lies about doctors during a pandemic. More and more it feels like Trump himself wants to lose.
There is a low whine of panic emanating from Trump, and his terrible surrogates, his children. If youre quiet you can almost hear it. Friday night, the far-right website The Washington Examiner magically produced ANOTHER Hunter Biden laptop because the first one didnt work. But Rudy Giuliani and Steve Bannons October Surprise surprised no one. In fact, Bannon and Rudys October Surprise managed to completely embarrass the almost unembarrassable New York Post and opinion side of The Wall Street Journal. No small feat to make the WSJ opinion page blush.
None of the old tricks are working. The Trump administration, which is really just the taxpayer-funded arm of the Trump campaign, decided to make Friday a national day of remembrance for Americans killed by illegal aliens. It was a typical Trumpian xenophobia play, likely cooked up by Americas favorite Jewish Santa Monica Nazi, but the problem was that were in the middle of a pandemic, so it immediately prompted the question of why hasnt Trump made a day of remembrance for the more than 230,000 Americans whove died of coronavirus?

I've got an old laptop here in my closet. I "thought" it had belonged to one of my kids, but the more I think about it, I'm betting that it was most likely HUNTER'S!
REALLY, I MEAN IT!!!!!!
Tell you what: Meet me at the airport and bring $20,000 cash (no check, you understand, don't you?). Why don't you just fly in on Air Force One - nobody would suspect anything..........
See you there!!!!!
