Look, I don’t like the White House Correspondent’s Dinner any more than anybody else, but to shoot at it? That seems a bit extreme, and it was rude. This guy clearly didn’t think about all the work the kitchen staff did to prepare that fine meal, all the effort that went into staging this annual blowhard bunk. People got dressed up and reporters made ready to hob-nob with politicians and their staffs. Then this guy selfishly messes the whole thing up.

I find myself wondering if it’s a real shooter, or are they staging things again? That’s clearly not beyond the realm of possibility for Team Evil. They’ve done it before. As of this morning, we’re told the shooter was “targeting members of the trump administration,” and that “likely included the President (sic),” but the shooter has not been charged with trying to kill 47 as of this writing.

47 will tell you of his harrowing, narrow escape, though, you just watch. Actually, what he did was use it to promote his “Militarily Top Secret Ballroom.” His words. It’s SO tippy-tippy, top-top secret, he keeps telling everybody about it, all the time. Way to keep a secret, there, Donny.

It sounds wrong, for some reason. The suspect was said to be armed with “a shotgun, a handgun, and knives,” and tried to simply sprint past a security checkpoint. He didn’t get far. At BEST, that’s a lousy plan, practically guaranteed to fail. What good did he think a shotgun was going to do? They’re very good at close range, lousy for distance shooting. Knives? After simply running past security, how close did this Bozo expect to get to President Pedo?

The one thing we can trust for sure is that this regime will do everything they can to capitalize on the fracas. We’ll hear all about the shooter, of course. The press is already using all three names, a sure sign he’s headed to the “attempted assassin” file. This is the propaganda regime. We likely won’t know the factual details until after Donny leaves office, however Donny leaves office.

I don’t mean to sound callous but this isn’t much of a news story to me. Nobody was hurt. Security held. At worst, the attendees had to swing by some fast-food joint on their unexpectedly early way home. I should add, I hope nobody kills him. I mean, I wake up every single day, hoping to see the headline, ‘Trump dead at 79,’ but I don’t want anybody to kill him.

If he survives, naturally, long enough, I’m looking forward to his days in court. I’m looking forward to him facing charges for his war crimes and crimes against humanity and I don’t want anybody to take that away from me. But if you’re going to try to save the world from his dark self, try to plan something a little more… possible than “grab my gun and charge!” You know what they say, anything worth doing is worth doing well…

I saw a meme. It deciphered 47’s true message whenever he uses one of his catch-phrases. I thought it was very accurate so I thought I’d recreate it here.

When he says “Fake news,” he means, “This is true and I hate it.”
When he says “Low IQ,” he means, “Their intelligence intimidates me.”
When he says “Horrible person,” he means, “They tell the truth about me.”
When he says “Witch hunt,” he means, “I did it and hoped nobody would find out.”
When he says “Hoax,” he means, “This is a damning indictment of me and my criminal activities.”
When he says “Many people are saying,” he means, “I just made this up.”
When he says “Believe me,” he means, “What I’m saying is not true.”
When he says “Nobody knows more about <subject> than I do,” he means, “I know almost nothing about <subject>.”
When he says “Very unfair,” he means, “I’m being treated the same as everybody else.”
When he says “Total loser,” he means, “They criticized me or stopped supporting me.”
When he says “Great guy,” he means, “They’re loyal to me.”

One simply has to know the code to understand how 47 operates…

Do these morons in the White House really think the commutative property applies to percentages? Wait a minute, do you? Okay, look. If something costs $10 dollars and the price jumps to $20 dollars, that’s a 100% increase. The cost has doubled. But if a $20 dollar cost drops to $10 dollars, that’s a 50% decrease. The cost halved. It doesn’t work both ways, no matter how many times they say otherwise. Thank you for your attention to this matter…

Yesterday, I wrote, “The primary is a short time away and there’s a real risk that only Republicans might end up on the final ballot.” I’ve been asked to explain why that’s the case. California uses what is commonly called a “Jungle Primary.” We’re all going to go out and vote for the candidate of our choice. THEN, the top two vote-getters stand against each other in the November General Election, regardless of party.

There are only two Republican candidates. There is a field of Democratic candidates. The risk is that while Dems spread their votes around, cons will only have two guys to choose from. The concentration of votes means the two Republican candidates could end up the only two on the November ballot.

The state Democratic Party knows all of this, of course. They’ve been trying to get various candidates to stand down. Some have, some haven’t. I suspect they will, but the ballots are already going out with all of those names on them. Hell, even that pervert Swalwell is going to show up on the thing. We really could end up with a Republican governor again.

I don’t really have anything against Republican governors. We’ve had them before. But these two guys aren’t just “Republicans.” They’re MAGA, through and through. I don’t know how much damage either of them could do with a Democratic controlled state legislature, but I have some idea of how much good stuff they might stop – or try to stop just because it might help somebody…
