Bye Bye, Baby

"Some people aren't loyal to you. They are loyal to their need of you.

 Once their needs change, so does their loyalty."

~Unknown

Donald Trump is loyal to no one. He always has put himself on a golden throne, as he is a king in his own mind. While folks have sat back and laughed and smirked at the at the way Trump has treated people over the years, both the loyal and disloyal alike, they never imagine that one day Trump will chew them up, and spit them out, despite of their being a long history of just that. In the last few days, Trump has thrown two Department of Justice figures under the bus, Todd Blanche and Jeannie Pirro. Both are about to see their careers ruined, and the very real possibility of at least one of them will being disbarred. Everything Trump touches dies, and right now the careers of anyone in his orbit and in particularly the ones who tell the truth or refuse to do his bidding will be the next to go.

Are numbers, letters now?

Fuck it!

So, who gets fired first?

Who will quit first?

I predict Pirro will be gone by the end of the week, but there will be quite the mean tweeting between now and then. I'll get back to you.

Inside The Mind Of An Introvert: Comics, Deep Thoughts and Quotable Quotes

Ugh. Blech. On Thursday night, Trump will deliver a primetime speech, which has all the possibilities of being one of his most terrifying moments our country has faced. I am already stressed out. Will he end free and fair elections in his speech? Will he declare Martial Law? Will he unseat the two senators from, Georgia? Is he panicking? Will he simply deliver his usual long string of  unhinged, repetitive, whiny nonsense? Or has his Acting Attorney General, Todd Blanche, provided him with fake evidence that brings all of their favorite election interference conspiracy theories to life? Who knows what he will say, he almost always goes off script.

What do we do if he declares the 2020 Georgia election results invalid?

 What happens then?

I am terrified about so many things. Todd Blanche has a confirmation hearing later today and I have a little hope that he won't be confirmed, but at this point I hate dealing in hope. I will be watching it. It starts in a little 3 hours from now. At least I hope I will be awake. It's my plan to be awake. Sigh. I mean who can sleep? I still have so many questions just ruminating through my mind. Trump needs to be impeached and removed from office for obvious reasons. The only hope we have of that is the upcoming election, when we can take the house and senate.

Growing up I didn't have any idea that this would be what my life would be at 64. I knew physical pain came with growing older, but I never knew that I would be facing the stress of my own country becoming an authoritarian nation, led by puny tin pot dictator. On my wedding day, when hubby and I looked into the future, all we could see was incredible happiness. We were blind on love and hope. Life was shiny and happy for a long time. Then we lived through our share of tragedies, as most folks do in the course of a lifetime, but the last 10 years, better know as the era of Trump, has been among the worst of our life, for so many reasons. 

So yes, I am stressed.

But his speech isn't until tomorrow night. Let's get through today, shall we?

I hope Todd Blanche isn't confirmed.
