I May Be Wrong, I May Be Right
Monday 4 November 7:30 a.m.
The weekend’s over but I’m still hanging at my girlfriend’s pad.
My Trumpy girlfriend, Joan.
She’s a good kid. Though she’s a Trumpy…
That’s right. A devotee of Trump. A Maga follower. A real diehard believer.
If we were living in Medieval Times I’d need to turn her over to the inquisition to be condemned as a heretic and burned at the stake. I’d have to. Otherwise she’d turn me in as a heretic and I’d be burned at the stake…
Old Believers being burned at the stake in Russia
That’s the way it worked in the old days. They didn’t put up with MAGA people. Unless…unless you-know-who was in power.
T.V.’s blaring Fox News
Joan may be going deaf. Three days I’ve been here. Since Friday evening. Three days of nonstop fox news. She’s got a T.V. blasting in each room. Maybe she’s going deaf.
Two T.V.s upstairs. Her office and her bedroom.
Two T.V.s downstairs. One in the kitchen. One in the Livingroom.
Wherever she moves in this house, She’s always within range of a blaring T.V..
Just between you and me? Say I don’t wanna listen to Greg Gutfield or Shawn Hannity or Judge Jeanine or the lunatic Mark Levin or any of the other Maga talent on Fox News. What do I do? I can’t really go around smashing her T.V.s. cuz this is Joan’s pad and these are her T.V.s. I can’t turn the volume down because she’ll just turn it right up again. I think maybe she’s going deaf. I can’t complain about the same damn channel playing all the time, either. I tried once. I tried to reason with her like a normal adult would do with another normal adult by suggesting she might try listening to CNN for a change, or MSMBC, or any of a panoply of blog casts on YouTube, or anything, anything as a way of getting a more balanced perspective on the news. (I didn’t mention NPR. I was trying to win my case.) But she wouldn’t listen to my reason. No, the only channel worth watching in her fervent maga mind is Fox news. Oh, and Newsmax…a platform even more maga than Fox. She’ll watch Newsmax on occasion. Especially when she’s pissed at Fox for veering left. (Her notion of veering left is when they share too much air time with RINOS. People like Heraldo Rivera or Carl Rove or god forbid Nikki Haley or Ron DeSantis. These are not actual Rinos but Rinos in the minds of TRUMPIES.)
It’s hard to crack through the stainless steel maga noggin with a tool as soft as REASON. You might as well go outside and machine gun a chicken like Hemingway once did when he was overcome with emotion. I wouldn’t do that because I kind of like chickens.
So what do I do?
What I do, I plug in the laptop headphones and groove on my own liberal maga shit. CNN, or MSMBC, or, God Forbid, THE NEWS HOUR on NPR…..
I watch my liberal news shit and stare out at the Lagoon.
Still, after a couple days at Joan’s pad, I’ve reached my limit of the background MAGA noise.
I bug out to my boat.
But Lately, I got no Boat
That’s right. I sold my boat to Ronnie. He gave me a pile of cash. Paid the delinquent tax. Transferred the ownership at the DMV. into his own name. Making him the legal owner! Scruffy is his boat now. Free and clear. I keep pinching myself. He’s the owner now!
Ronnie’s a bald dude with a beard. He’s fifty one years old. I like Ronnie. I really do. He’s like a son to me. Hopefully, as the immensity of the project he’s taken on by purchasing Scruffy dawns on him, we’ll remain friends. It’s not like he didn’t know what he was getting himself into when he purchased Scruffy. Maybe he didn’t. Time will tell…
In the meantime, he drives up here from L.A. where he lives, and spends his weekends on Scruffy. Thinking he’ll fix up my former “project from hell” like it’s no big deal. Like it’s easy peasy. He’ll come to his senses sooner or later. And it’ll be an awful moment for him. But I don’t want to dwell on Ronnie’s great awakening.
This was his first weekend. He’s heading back home this morning. Any minute now he’ll be gone and I can go back and hang on Scruffy until he returns the following weekend. He’s paying half the slip fee. I’m paying the other half. So far it’s working out. I don’t know how long this arrangement will last. He’ll need to take charge of Scruffy. The sooner the better. But until then, I’m good, I guess. I got a place to crash during the week. For the time being.
I’m a for the time being kind of guy.
Except this weekend I had to hang an extra day at Joan’s pad. Cuz Ronnie didn’t leave until this morning. That’s an extra day of Fox News.
What I need to do, I need to fix up my van. That way I’ll have a second option.
The van life. I’m almost there. One more day of tweaking and the van will be ready for camping. Took out the seats. Built a bed. Portable Toilet. Power pack for charging devices. Ice Chest for vegies and booze. All I got left to do is make some window covers. Window covers are critical. With no window covers people can look in at me while I’m sleeping in my van!
Like I’m some kind of freak hobo bum loser!
This elderly man has window covers attached in his van. See them? Window covers. I plan to make mine with cardboard and black spray paint. I’m not making a political statement. I’m just cheap. Custom Window Covers on Amazon will run you a couple hundred bucks. I can make a full set for 8.99…
Whatever the case, You gotta have privacy!
What was the point of this blog post?
I had a point. I remember distinctly I had something I wanted to talk about. At seventy one, I’m really starting to lose it. I can’t remember why I do stuff. Maybe I’m getting like Trump. He’s really losing it, too. Much as I despise Trump, I’ve been watching him a lot lately, especially with this election campaign wrapping up, and what I’ve noticed, and very graphically, I might add, is how he’s declined. He’s slow. He shambles around on stage. He says pretty much anything that comes out of his mouth. The usual Vile shit. Typical for Trump. Except now he’s doing really WEIRD shit, too, like motioning with his microphone like he’s sucking a dick. No really! I’m serious. Check it out on YouTube. Meanwhile his camp followers act like it’s no big deal. Fox News acts like it’s no big deal. In fact, they blame the “liberal media” for branding his weird shit weird. IF you go by Fox News, Trump is doing fine. He’s as good as ever. In fact, he’s BETTER than ever.
But I know the real score.
Trump’s rally act is now a Elvis Vegas act.
Trump has become the last gasp of a fat Elvis.
Once upon a time, Trump was formidable. Now he’s a tired joke. Talking about legal immigrants eating cats and dogs. Adding shit-slinging comedians to his act. (pissing off a half million Porto Ricans, who vote). Threatening to serve Liz Cheney with a firing squad (nine guns is a firing squad, by the way). Bragging about how beautiful his white skin is behind all that pancake make-up. (who does his make-up, I wonder?) Shit. I almost feel sorry for the pathetic bastard. HEY WAIT A MINUTE! I just remembered the point of this blog post! The election. I meant to write something about the impending election! THAT WAS THE POINT OF THIS BLOG POST.
What do you know! I did a Trumpian Weave and found my way.
Tuesday 5 November 10:51 A.M.
I put off finishing this Blog Post. Like I put off everything. Now it’s too late. Too late for predictions. Today the vote count begins.
I’m not gonna predict the winner. Because I did already. Two or three blog posts back, I predicted that Kamala Harris will win. I stand by that.
The question remains: How big?
I say she’ll win big. How can that be? All the polls are claiming the the race is dead even. Razor thin. Every fucking poll out there keeps insisting this is the tightest race in electoral history.
I say the polls are bullshit.
The race aint gonna be that close. It won’t be close at all. We’ll know by tonight who’s the winner and that winner will be Kamala Harris. I predict it’ll be a blow out.
Why do I think this?
WOMEN…
Women are fed up with Trump and his crowd. Trump and most of his Maga fans (including Joan) are too stupid to see the handwriting on the wall. I mean, Trump vows to protect women, “whether they like it or not.” He actually said that! How fucking stupid can he be? He actually thinks women respond favorably to that kind of attitude. It’s hard to fathom the depth of his stupidity. He’s like a caveman dragging his woman by the hair.
Trump doesn’t know shit about women.
Women are done with Trump.
More women vote than men.
All women, except Maga Women, will vote for Kamala Harris.
Simple as that.
This election will be defined by Gender.
Of course, I may be wrong.
But, then again, I may be right!
