An excellent and timely post. The one thing that I disagree with is the notion that Trump's guilty convictions are "sad." On the contrary, they are a joyous repudiation of his evil and a a glorious expression of justice. What is sad is that Trump ever became president, and that the Republican Party is still all in for him as their presidential candidate anyway. Those things are sad, pathetic, disgusting, or any number of other adjectives you can come up with. But his convictions today are cause for relief at worse, celebration at best.
It’s a glorious day when 12 resistance fighters carve a F for felon on the forehead of a fascist pig for all the world to see. I feel no jail time would be an injustice to the common citizen, leaving the door even wider open for proof of white privilege. So yes, lock him up! Let Hillary do the honors in a photo op. 🤞 Cheers 🍻
Great writeup Jack! I don't know how I feel about the convictions, but I am not sad about it. I remember the thousands and thousands of threats I've received due to his lies. And people I know who have been threatened by his lies. And all the people he's hurt. I think it's ok to enjoy the moment. After the hell he's put us through.
"a seething cult devoid of deep political thought" -- 'deep political thought'? These ... "people" ... are devoid of the abstract possibility of any kind of thought what-so-ever.

I suppose “sad” can be relative. I certainly don’t disagree, and I was pretty giddy, sitting by a hotel pool in mostly red southern Oregon. 😊😝

Thanks, Scott. There’s a sad aspect to it, but I’m also very happy. ‘Bout damned time, yeah?? 👍
Absolutely :)

I know, right? "Deep" seems unthinkable.
Last time i checked it was De Niro and not De Nero
Nero? The Roman fu emperor?
I know, right?? 🤗 /s
