the gut

Three gnawing items today, among the million other gnashing and growling prickly points eating away at my gut. ( am beginning to wonder if the thought process, the emotional core, and my conscience NOW originates from my gut and nowhere else), But in the Age of Trump nothing makes sense, and even making less sense is that 30% of Americans find him with a favorable rating, 100% of those Republicans in the House and Senate (You too Aunt Bea, aka Susie Collins, and the Prince among the peasants, Mitt Romney), and local state legislators have hard on’s and try their darndest to emulate the callous, collusion and criminal acts of a man drowning in dementia and delusion!

So the first items for today, April 24, 2019: A Pastor in San Diego, whose church has reached out to Immigrants, and Asylum Seekers, has to close down, as there is no  more space for the innocents seeking refuge, due, as the Pastor commented, to the inhumane policies of the Trump Administration. One of the biggest worries, the Pastor has, was, what will happen to the pregnant women, if they must just roam the streets.  And in the Confederate States of Christian America the GOP have established the 6-week fetal heartbeat abortion ban…which, in essence, can place both the doctor and the MOTHER in jail facing a death sentence. Uh-huh, you say, or what the fuck, jail time for the women who decide that they want jurisdiction on their own bodies…but fuck the mothers of brown babies, who most likely from malnutrition and lack of proper medical care most likely will find that their fetuses may never be born or if they do may suffer lifelong health consequences!

The second item for today is number 20. Yep, Joe Biden just jumped onto the Crazy train and declared his candidacy for the Democrat Party presidency. 20 folks, begging to be heard, pretending that American life will continue onto 2020, because, the Republican Party/Vladimir Putin/Mitch McConnell and the hand-picked “you owe me Trump Supreme Court Justices are going to let democracy remain in power. And on top of that, the Dems have a whole bunch of litmus tests as they devour one another. Will the Bernie or Bust Dems get all hissy and vote for Trump as they did in 2016 if Bernie does not win? Will the People of Color stay home from voting as they did in 2016 if a Person of Color is not the nominee? Will women just sit on their hands if a female is not a nominee. Will the Establishment Democrats, get huffy and puffy and use their bias to either support or not support, a candidate if he or she is NOT from the Elite Democrat hierarchy? Of course, the hacking by the Russians with the permission of state Election officials and very restrictive voter restrictions, and God only knows how many ballots were just tossed helped Trump win the Electoral College numbers, not the actual American one-vote process. But the Dems led to the demise of democracy also, by acting as spiteful idiots… 20 candidates so far, and I haven’t heard word one on how they will coalesce, with great earnest, to form ONE perfect union to not only get a Democrat elected as President but to maintain majorities in the Congress.

And Number Three, because, every day is another (as the Talking Heads and even really professional journalists proclaim) new precedent in making the already lawless bar lower, Trump continues to hide his crimes and falsehoods, lies and finances by JUST giving the middle finger to the Constitution and ignoring the law of the land…and he continues to get away with it. Lots of threats from the Democrat House, and complete silence from ALL Republicans. Ya wonder who is really going to win… my bet is maybe the guy, who has WON by being a crook, his entire life!
