A few choice words

Considering, nothing but the wishes of Putin, the jealousy that Barack Obama had been nominated for a Noble Peace Prize, and of course lingering in his own delusional darkness, lit in sin by the ever so good ass licking and enabling Republican Party leadership, Trump, jets off to Viet Nam, pretending that his best bud the ex-“Rocket Man”, is seriously considering denuclearization of North Korea. And, any normal American who still maintains his or her sanity is supposed to go along with this charade, this Putin foreign policy, this affront to American democracy. All of THIS, of course, while there is a declared National Emergency on our newly established most dangerous plot of geography our Southern Border! And low and behold, at the same time, suddenly out of thin air, the world witnesses the Russian Foreign Minister, Sergey Lavrov, has decided to join the two Authoritarian Loving Goons, Trump and Jong-un and have a “menage a trois”, in Hanoi! Sergey Lavrov is the same ex KGB dude who, along with a few other ex KGB buds spent ALONE time, with Trump in the Oval Office.

And all of this bull shit, all of this sheer indulgence to make Putin a happy man somehow is of no concern to the GOP, who must understand that Putin has a whole of SHIT at the ready to present to the nation regarding everything from money laundering, dark money gifts, prostitution, and God only knows what else on the RNC…And somehow, as an American, I am supposed to respect the office of President, and pretend, Trump and his associates are NOT COMPROMISED, AGENTS…What the fuck America, we must fight back…we are in dire, I meant to say DIRE days of doom.

I have many words for the current state of affairs in which we find ourselves…but I will refer to some Yiddish words my Grandmother and her sisters and cousins, of her generation, would mutter, in hushed tones, when what the fuck was just not good enough, to describe a moron!

Bukes Not a word for polite company. Bubkes or bobkes may be related to the Polish word for “beans”, but it really means “goat droppings” or “horse droppings.” It’s often used by American Jews for “trivial, worthless, useless, a ridiculously small amount” – less than nothing, so to speak. “After all the work I did, I got bupkes!”
gornisht More polite than bupkes, and also implies a strong sense of nothing; used in phrases such as “gornisht helfn” (beyond help).
mishegas Insanity or craziness. A meshugener is a crazy man. If you want to insult someone, you can ask them, ”Does it hurt to be crazy?”
schmuck Often used as an insulting word for a self-made fool, but you shouldn’t use it in polite company at all since it refers to male anatomy.
