mikalcharles's JournalA point that doesn't get stressed enough
Is that the quality of the people that are elected to serve in Congress by the Republican Party over the past twenty five years has been on a steep decline. The buffoonery of the clapping just witnessed when Ted Cruz rose to challenge the electors from Arizona is evidence enough. The party which couldn't even come up with a party platform in 2020, that has no legislative agenda, that is incapable of being a ruling party is an albatross around the neck of these United States.
Let's not refer to this party as the Republican party
anymore. They are the Maga Party, a party that seeks to do away with the will of the majority to stay in power. The Republican party is dead.
This bullshit about the WHO is really getting under my skin
Look-the WHO doesn't have intelligence services. The United States does. There are numerous articles which document that US intelligence agencies knew in late November that there was a problem in Wuhan. If anything the United States should have informed the WHO about what it knew was going on. I'm so sick of this asshole getting away with shit.
When Trump says the United States has tested more people than any other nation
why doesn't someone point out that the reason we have to do so much testing is because we have so many cases because he screwed the pooch. Its really not something to brag about. It suggests failure, not success. I'd much rather live in a country without so many symptomatic people. (And we aren't even testing all of them.)
The Triumph of Bullshit
From Frankfurt's On Bullshit "Someone who lies and someone who tells the truth” are both responding to the facts. “The response of the one is guided by the authority of the truth, while the response of the other defies that authority and refuses to meet its demands. The BSer ignores these demands altogether… He pays no attention to it at all. By virtue of this, BS is a greater enemy of the truth than lies are.”
And this “Just as hot air is speech that has been emptied of all informative content, so excrement is matter from which everything nutritive has been removed.”
This country has had to deal with Republican Bullshit for decades. I think the Donald Trump should be referred to now as
the Bullshit President and the Republican Party as the Bullshit Party.
I know this has been said a thousand times here
But the press has to come up with another approach to this. Maybe get together and agree to follow each others questions by going after what Trump just said because the way it is now someone asks him a question and he lies then the hands all wave someone asks him a question and he lies the hands all wave someone asks him a question and he lies and the lies just pile up on the floor like a stinking pile of shit that everyone pretends isn't there...its just an embarrassment
