I ignored Trump and the GOP for two weeks. The volume of stupidity I missed is unreal.

To get a full sense of the Donald-Trump-led Republican bunk and balderdash that awaits us this year, I had to step away for a couple weeks.
The daily doses of unhinged social media posts and “I’m not a threat to democracy, YOU ARE!” nonsense don’t do justice to the volume of weird, dishonest and destructive Trumpian blah-blah emanating from the husk of what was once the GOP. It becomes – in the most literal sense possible – white noise.
But I took a little time away from it straddling the end of 2023 and the beginning of 2024. I ignored the chaotic goings-on in our political world. And I returned Monday, caught up on what I missed and saw the frightening scope of right-wing mania spouted during two weeks in absentia, a veritable tsunami of stupid.
Donald Trump's daily ravings start to add up
Let’s start with Trump, the man most responsible for turning Republicans into the worst versions of themselves. On Christmas, he posted the following: “Merry Christmas to all, including Crooked Joe Biden’s ONLY HOPE, Deranged Jack Smith, the out of control Lunatic who just hired outside attorneys, fresh from the SWAMP (unprecedented!), to help him with his poorly executed WITCH HUNT against “TRUMP” and “MAGA.” Included also are World Leaders, both good and bad, but none of which are as evil and “sick” as the THUGS we have inside our Country who, with their Open Borders, INFLATION, Afghanistan Surrender, Green New Scam, High Taxes, No Energy Independence, Woke Military, Russia/Ukraine, Israel/Iran, All Electric Car Lunacy, and so much more, are looking to destroy our once great USA. MAY THEY ROT IN HELL. AGAIN, MERRY CHRISTMAS!”
