Well, Oklahoma is now going to institutionalize wrongheadedness. Lovely. Students in Oklahoma schools now have to identify “discrepancies” in the 2020 election. Specifically, the new curriculum standard says the students need to, “Identify discrepancies in 2020 elections results by looking at graphs and other information, including the sudden halting of ballot-counting in select cities in key battleground states, the security risks of mail-in balloting, sudden batch dumps, an unforeseen record number of voters, and the unprecedented contradiction of ‘bellwether county’ trends.”

I’d be in trouble if I attended school in Oklahoma, these days. With that kind of standard, they will likely start teaching kids that Japan won WWII, as well. I mean, why not? If you’re just going to make things up anyway, why not go all out? I’ll tell you this: I didn’t like Oklahoma’s new standard, so I fixed it. It should read like this:

“Identify fictional discrepancies in 2020 elections results by looking at fake graphs and other fraudulent information, including the sudden halting of ballot-counting in select cities in key battleground states that never happened, the security risks of mail-in balloting that don’t exist, sudden batch dumps that never happened, an unforeseen record number of voters furious at the Feckless Fuckup’s handling of, well, everything, really, and the unprecedented contradiction of ‘bellwether county’ trends that come with being such a complete loser of a President.”

This is simple, folks. Donny got his ass handed to him in 2020 because he did a terrible, terrible job. Hundreds of thousands of people died needlessly and he flat-lined the economy. The only President in history who has done a worse job than 45 is 47, who is working overtime to be worse in every measurable way – his only “success” and, sadly, succeeding at THAT brilliantly. The only real mystery is how he won so many people back to support him in 2024. Of course, Americans could offer an actual and honest class about how to steal an election based on 2024 but I’m guessing The Felon and his minions don’t want anybody looking any too closely at that “election…”

Oh, crap, have you heard? Taylor Swift isn’t “hot” anymore and, apparently, Bruce Springsteen is “not a talented guy.” He was talented enough for 47 to use his song without permission during the campaign but, apparently, not any more. If the Failure President has declared it, it must be (the opposite of) true.

The dude’s skin is a thick as the papery skin of an onion, isn’t it? Swift preferred the other candidate during the election, and she said so. She might not have, except Donny tried to lie her into his camp. He claimed she supported him. She set the record straight. Now he doesn’t like her, publicly, at least. As a general rule, Donny doesn’t like ANYBODY that tells the truth. Springsteen was a little more direct.

Springsteen stopped his show in England to declare 47’s corrupt, incompetent, and treasonous regime, “corrupt, incompetent, and treasonous.” That just seems accurate, to me. He called on “all who believe in democracy and the best of our American experience to rise with us.” He also called on his audience to “Raise your voices against authoritarianism and let freedom ring.”

Apparently, that infuriated Donny. Apparently, 47 doesn’t WANT to let freedom ring. So, he got mad at Springsteen and declared him lacking in talent. Secretly, I think Donny is just jealous that both Springsteen and Swift have earned more honest money than him, but that’s just a suspicion.

Oh, but when Donny’s panties are in a wad, he simply can not let it go. He wrote, “This dried out ‘prune’ of a rocker (his skin is all atrophied!)” [Editors note: look who’s talking.] “ought to KEEP HIS MOUTH SHUT until he gets back into the Country, that’s just ‘standard fare.'” He added, “Then we’ll all see how it goes for him!”

Wait, let me guess: ’86 47′ is a clear “threat,” but “Then we’ll all see how it goes for him!” is just standard Donny-being-Donny kind of funny, right?

Have you seen the Don of Destruction’s latest? Well, I don’t know if it’s his “latest.” He’s so stupid, so fast, so often, it’s likely he’s been outrageous thirty or forty more times since, but this is a good one. He told Walmart they aren’t allowed to increase their prices based on his tariffs. I honest-to-God did not know 47 had a voice in Walmart’s board room.

MAGA used to understand this. They’re not allowed to, now, so they pretend they don’t, but they used to. Try to implement a tax on something. MAGA will say… no, MAGA used to understand that retailers would simply add the cost of the tax to the end-sale price of that product. Increased sales taxes lead to higher prices. ‘Tariff’ is simply another word for ‘tax’ – and it’s a sales tax. But The Felon has been lying to his base that the tariffs won’t increase prices.

Amazon said they were going to highlight the added cost of products by showing the additional cost of the tariffs but they backed down from that after The First Felon spoke with Bezos. The prices are still going up, there’s just no breakout number to highlight the added cost of tariffs. Walmart warned their customers that things were going to get more expensive because of the tariffs – so 47 told Walmart they can’t raises their prices. Instead, he suggested, Walmart should “eat the tariffs.”

I don’t like Walmart. I don’t trust them. I don’t shop in their stores if I haven ANY other option. I think Walmart – and every other national retailer in the country – will raise prices based on the tariffs whether they need to or not. It’s an opportunity, and Capitalists NEVER take a pass when they have an opportunity to screw customers. At the same time, tariffs are taxes and taxes get passed on to the consumer.

So, while he’s over in the middle east illegally securing billions of dollars in business for himself based on the Presidency, he’s ALSO telling Walmart they’ve earned enough, so they should just suck it up and eat the tariffs.

I’ll tell you this: it’s one thing to attack and destroy defenseless Americans. It’s another thing, entirely, for him to start telling billionaires they have too much. Poor people? Sure. OBVIOUSLY, they’re taking far too much, but billionaires? Billionaires are twisted people. They don’t know what “too much” means and they’re certainly not going to let a proven dumbass tell them. I expect Walmart’s prices will increase based on the tariffs, just like Walmart said they would. And I would NOT be surprised to see some serious push-back from the billionaires now, it seems, in 47’s crosshairs…
