I’ve long suspected cons are so loyal to Trump because they think AS cons, they’re safe from his attacks. But are they? As he melts down trying to find a decent and not hackneyed attack on Kamala, he has taken to lobbing insults at other Republicans, too. Their sins? Speaking truth about Trump. He hates that. He WILL work to tear you down, Republican or no, if you don’t kiss his ring.

But it’s not just that. He tore into Tennessee Governor Billy, no, Bill Lee, the chair of the Republican Governors Association, for being a “RINO.” (That’s a ‘Republican In Name Only.’ One can be a DINO, too…) What did Lee do? Well, months ago, Lee endorsed a candidate. More recently, Trump endorsed that candidate’s opponent. That puts Lee on the outs.

Meanwhile, the racist, criminal, and very OLD weirdo Donald Trump is trying to distance himself from his Public Display of Racism at the NABJ by calling Kamala “Kamabla.” Yeah, that should work, name calling. How VERY second grade. Except, nobody knows what Kamabla is or means.

I’ve digressed a bit. The point here is, even cons aren’t safe from his attacks – and one doesn’t even have to actually DO anything to him. If he even THINKS you’ve done something he doesn’t like, he works hard to bring you down, Republican or no, and right now, he’s just flailing at anybody and everybody as he falls further and further behind in the race…

Recently, there was an economic blip, a huge sell-off in the rich people’s casino. The GOP immediately dreamed of an economic crash and started trying to pin the hoped-for economic slowdown on Kamala, calling it the ‘Kamala crash.’ Had it been an actual crash, I STILL think it would be more closely associated with the specter of Trump seizing power in January, after losing the election in November.

The cons CAN steal the election. They want to, they have a plan to, and they can. They’ve put the pieces in place. But would the country just sit idly by and let it happen? Or, would the largest economy on Earth, the one so many other countries depend upon, be destabilized? Are the world markets spooked by the prospect of a Trump return, either in November OR in January?

MAGA lives in a dream world of delusion but the rest of the world remembers Trump’s first term. The rest of the world knows that the American economy was already suffering under Trump’s mismanagement even before Covid-19. His stated plans for his return promise to do even greater damage than he did the last time. Maybe, the closer we get to the possibility of his actual return, the more rich people feel like they need to protect their own positions…

So, this mystery buffoon (I’ll let you see if you can guess whom) goes on Fox Not News and takes questions from bikers at the Sturgis rally in South Dakota. One person explained that rents are too high and asked what our mystery buffoon (it could be any MAGA) plans to do about it.

His answer? Drill, baby, drill because bacon is expensive! Yeah, you think I’m kidding. You think I’m poking fun at a mentally challenged person. You think I’m treating him like he treats disabled reporters. None of the above. Drill, baby, drill because bacon is expensive.

Okay, so that isn’t an exact, word-for-word quote. But it was absolutely his message. He said energy costs were causing high housing prices. (He’s wrong.) This is one of the falsehoods MAGA holds on to. The US is currently – that means right now, today – producing more oil and gas than we ever have before in the entire history of the once-great nation. But nobody told MAGA and they think we’re not drilling at all. (They’re wrong.) Besides, the US is mostly incapable of refining the oil we take out of the ground under our feet. In short, we HAVE to sell it. Drilling more just improves oil company profits. It doesn’t lower prices at the pump one cent.

The food gouge HAS increased the price of bacon – just like they’ve increased the price of everything else. Greed kills. Greedy grocery chains aren’t the reason that guy’s kids can’t find a decent place to live at an affordable price. That’s Wall Street greed. Totally different.

Drill, baby, drill because bacon is expensive. Dear MAGA, I know you love him. I know you’re going to vote for him, but you’re voting for a moron…
