22. Sometimes it's better
Sat May 2, 2020, 12:41 AM

to let things go, despite a desire to "get even." We teach our children this stuff. Unfortunately for us, we have a juvenile pRes who won't listen and can't be reasoned with.

He'll keep on until he has our economy broken beyond repair. Just look at everything that we import from China. "Made in China." There are many people who think that we have too much dependency on China, but we made that decision years ago, and we can't just decide to not pay our debts, nor can we decide to not import anything from China.

We need a well reasoned effort for adjustment. I think that no one is fooled anymore by Trump and his histrionics that he uses to distract us
from the fact that he effed up and is continuing to eff up. This is all over the election and our determination that he needs to go, along with his idiot advisors and sycophants.

All I would gently discuss with the Chinese is what are they going to do to curb those open air markets. Because there is so much that we do not understand about this virus and what is going on with it, we cannot know all there is to know about that bio lab. We just can't. And Trump's bluster, his threats, and desire to blame the Chinese won't fly with other adults who are busy legitimately fighting a world pandemic.

Oh, I am so tired of Trump. So tired of this crap. Can we please get a divorce from him? Please? Please? Let's pay him to go away. Him and all his friends. Let's make an exception, a one-off Fuck You, and offer to pay him to disappear.

Everyone has a price. What's his? Someone ask him.
