Now What?

OK -- the Senate had it's "trial" -- and frankly, Stalin couldn't have staged a better show -- acquitted Trump (no surprize there -- Moscow Mitch told us right up front that was going to happen), all this just after Trump gave his State of the Union address, as usual chock full of lies. Nancy Pelosi ripped up her copy at the end.



Cue the right-wing outrage -- "How disrespectful!". Trae Crowder -- a/k/a the Liberal Redneck -- has some thoughts on that:


Of course, it's all Democrats, out to destroy America. (Just a reminder: it's called "projection".) Franklin Graham is just one example:

What we saw from President Donald J. Trump’s opposition last night during the State of the Union address felt like a very personal resentment and hatred for the successes of America that had just been spoken of. How could leaders in Congress be so indignant about good news for the people of this country?

It gets better:


You may remember that Gaetz is not only rabidly pro-Trump, he's not very intelligent.

There. That's my summation of the news for the past few days.
