the dustbin of history

  The Qanoners, like Trump, have no particular love for the Republican party. They see him as some guy who is there to root out all the pedophiles in government which they assume are mostly democrats but probably a few republicans also.  He is a double agent in that they think he is working for them and not the republican party.  

At first all the rep candidates said (truthfully) terrible things about Trump, especially those who later became his biggest sycophants, but at the debates nobody would take him on.  They knew that he would attack back and that he had that fearsome horde behind him, and they all hoped that one of the the other candidates would have the guts to take him on, but that never happened.  They didn't wait for the election, they all hopped right into bed with him the moment he secured the nomination.

I don't go for the canard that this is just a part of the normal yingyang of one party wins and then the other wins and it is just the typical ebb and flow of the way the US does politics.  There is nothing normal about Trump.  I don't think I need any backup for that statement.


I am surprised that neither of the dogs has taken up on that poetry thing.  I know Beagles has a fondness for Service, and I'm sure there is plenty of Kipling that he would like, and surely some whiff of poesy has touched the heart of Old Dog as he walked the streets of his hood.

But anyway:

And for all this, nature is never spent;
    There lives the dearest freshness deep down things;
And though the last lights off the black West went
    Oh, morning, at the brown brink eastward, springs —

Last night that Joan of Arc (who, don't get me wrong, I highly detest) took on the Trump lovers in the house and defeated them handily 145 to 61. and that Qanon chick, though they didn't harm a hair on her blonde head, they made her step back and sort of apologize for her Qanon leanings, which may sound like weak tea, but a heady brew indeed for a Trumpist.

There is still the impeachment.  I expect maybe ten rep sens will vote for it, and the rest will be against, though more on a procedural grounds than that stolen election crap.  The dems, busy with bringing social justice and prosperity to all, will not want to raise a fuss about it.  It seems at this point that Trump has been shuffled into the dustbin of history.

Of course I have been wrong about this many many times before.
