Life Under Dictator Don: The People’s Mandate

I am going to start a short-run series of posts that focuses on what life will be like under Dictator Don. Allow me to begin with the people’s mandate. Oh, yes, I said it, and I mean it. His victory is absolutely nothing short of a mandate (although it is a mirage), and there is no other way to interrupt the win. Dumbass Democrats were absolutely slaughtered across the country, save a few bright spots here and there, but as a national contest, they lost control of the Senate by what will probably be a 3-seat margin, wipping out the need to rely on recalcitrant RepubliKKKlan voters like Collins and Murkowski. The jury is still out on the House, but I doubt Democrats will take back control. Even a slim RepubliKKKlan majority in the House is more than enough to keep them in line, knowing they own the White House and the Senate. Every RepubliKKKlan will follow their marching orders to the T. Mark my words. Unlike in Dictator Don’s first term, Congressmen, Senators, executive officers, et al. will be singing from the same songbook. There will be no dissenters, no independent thinkers, or any people with a conscience in the RepubliKKKlan Party to push back. Those days are over. Thus, Dictator Don will run the country with complete control of Congress! Imagine that! (Don’t worry. I will imagine the worst for you since, apparently, morons of America failed to conjure up their worst fears before electing the Don to office.)

A word about the raw numbers behind his mandate. At the time of this writing, it appears that when all the 2024 numbers are tallied, Dictator Don will best his 2020 popular vote by a few hundred thousand, but using the numbers currently reported by Wikipedia, he received just over 50 percent of the total vote, his best showing ever. However, compared to the voting-eligible population in 2024 (~245.7 million people), he garnered approximately 29.9 percent. By comparison, in previous elections, Dictator Don received 27.3 percent in 2016 and 30.1 percent in 2020 of the voter-eligible population. In short, he has never received more than a third of the vote from all those who could vote. To put it more succinctly, the smallest minority will be ruling over the vast majority because Americans are simply too f***ing stupid to care. To be sure, there are, no doubt, tens and tens of millions of people (non-voter eligible and eligible voters alike) who fully support Dictator Don but didn’t or couldn’t make their voices heard via the ballot box. Do these “unheard” voices mirror the actual vote, or are they indeed the silent majority who protest against Dictator Don? If it is the latter, then there may be some hope for America. If it is the former, then God help us!

Of course, dumbass Democrats are more to blame than anything because according to the exit polls and the election results, Dictator Don improved upon his 2020 numbers across the board — with most demographics in 49 states, including D.C. Yet, as I just stated, he improved his margins significantly with barely breaking his popular vote total from 2020. In other words, he improved his numerator but the denominator remained the same. How can this be? Well, I’ll tell you. Dumbass Democrats failed to show up to vote. Full stop! Thus, Americans handed him a mandate by defaulting to doing nothing. How quintessentially American! And therein lies the rub: He has a mandate that is no mandate at all. But I promise you that’s not how he’ll interpret his win. Oh, well.

To be sure, Dictator Don will be unchained, knowing that he has (rightly) a mandate from the rabble! That means he’ll be uninhibited in thought and action — as if he could be any more unconstrained, but he’ll find a way. Unwittingly or not, Americans have given him a blank check and the confidence to do whatever he wants. (Remember, his first term was just practice with a JV team; his second term will be professional ball, so to speak.) I can hear it now when anyone questions his actions or methods — “The people gave me a mandate!” And guess what? He’d be right, absolutely f***ing right, because I live in the dumbest country on the planet! It would be an understatement of galactic proportions for me to say that morons of America have no idea just how much power they’ve given him, RepubliKKKlans, MAGA morons, evil evangelicals, and QAnon kooks. So, that’s the starting point: A dictator completely without a conscience who can do whatever he wants with the blessing of We the People. Fan-f***ing-tastic! Only in stupid, stupid America! I’m counting down to the end.

No More Traitor [T]rump

Given the election results, it’s clear that I can no longer use the “traitor trump” moniker. In all their glorious stupidity, Americans have absolved him — and to their peril, I might add. But whatever! Stupid is as stupid does! So, I have a new nickname for him, Dictator Don, which is a description he probably won’t find all that offensive. I’ll keep the capitalization as such because I was sick of Grammarly constantly trying to correct “trump” to “Trump,” and they seem to want to do the same for “don” to “Don.” I’m not messing with grammar anymore to keep proving a point that obviously falls on the minds of morons. Nonetheless, idiots of America found him not guilty across the board for his transgressions. So, good luck with that, you f***tards! Welcome to stupid America! Too dumb to keep its democracy, and they proved it!

I Was More Right Than I Thought!

At the time of this writing and as the numbers begin to shake out of the 2024 presidential election, more of my predictions seem to have come to fruition. But I’ll start with my big failure: I thought, for sure, that Dictator Don would never win the popular vote, but would win by more than he received in 2020. I was gravely wrong in those respects. However, as I think about those specific prognostications, they do contradict my other predictions, namely that Black and Hispanic men will kill democracy (i.e., not vote for Harris), and people would gladly give up democracy for a few more pennies in their pocket (i.e., it’s the economy, stupid). Both these things can’t be true, as it turns out, and not inherently mean Dictator Don would not win the popular vote. Of course, if the former two circumstances are true, then naturally, he must win the popular vote. And that’s precisely what happened.

But I nailed it on other counts! (As I usually do!) I nailed it when I claimed Black and Latino men would get Dictator Don elected. Allow myself to quote myself from an earlier post: “To be sure, Harris is trailing among most demographics compared to Biden in 2020, but it seems to me that Black and Latino men, with whom the force of misogyny is strong, my young padawan, will gladly risk their futures by not voting for Harris.” As the exit polls manifest themselves, it has become obvious that many more Latino men switched their votes to Dictator Don from Biden, as did Black men to a lesser degree. But Black men failed Harris in a more devastating way: They simply stayed home, which is why, in large part, Harris received nearly 14 million fewer votes than Biden did in 2020! Black voters still highly favored Harris as a percentage of the total vote, but in absolute numbers, the total fell well short of what Biden received the last time.

As it relates to the economy, again, allow me to quote a specific example from myself, “Thus, voters — as I’ve said a thousand times before — will turn their backs on democracy if it means a few more dollars in their wallets.” I’ve long predicted this, and you can do a search of my posts about capitalism, authoritarianism, and the like. But in short, f***tards of America will gladly give up their freedom and democracy for a few more Shekels in their pocket. Full stop! It’s that simple. So! People get the government they deserve and desire, which is not going to be what they thought they voted for, but it’s way too late for that now! Because I promise you that the economy Black and Latino men thought they voted for (or passively engendered) by electing Dictator Don is not going to be the one that makes their lives better. (I am definitely going to write a separate post on that soon-to-be sh*t-show!)

I also predicted America’s apathy would kill America’s democracy. Again, I quote myself as just the latest of many like examples, “Whatever! I give up! I called this race three years ago, and except for a month of believing Harris could win, I’ve never changed my mind because I understand the essence of this nation of morons. And that essence is this: People don’t want democracy anymore because they’re too f***ing stupid to apprehend the danger we’re in. It’s that simple. An idiot conman came along to promise the people riches and the ease of never having to think again. ‘Only I can fix it.’ ‘You won’t have to worry about elections anymore.’ And people believe him. Welcome to stupid America! No one cares, as the end is clearly in sight. Mark! My! Words! F***tards! Remember, morons, you did this to yourself.” Again, as I’ve said many, many, many times, people are too stupid and apathetic about keeping their democracy. And given the lackluster number of votes in 2024, it is apparent that millions and millions of people failed to show up to the polls and essentially allowed Dictator Don to win by acquiescence. That apathy will bite Americans in the ass — hard! Mark my words, morons! Oh, well.

And a few other lesser points. First, abortion rights were never going to save our democracy or Harris, as I knew it would not. Moreover, I correctly predicted that people would gladly vote in favor of protecting abortion rights at the state level and then turn right around and vote for Dictator Don. Bingo! I was right again, of course! As the red states showed, they passed amendments to their state constitutions enshrining abortion access and then voted RepubliKKKlans into office. Apparently, these morons are utterly oblivious to the fact that once in the White House, Dictator Don can unilaterally make it impossible to access abortion drugs, which is the primary way abortions are conducted. So, forget about a federal law banning abortions; he can do it by advising the FDA to withdraw approval of medications used for abortions. The irony is that morons in these states will force their women to utilize surgical abortions, which is more dangerous than medication abortions. But whatever! Nothing matters! Second, and on a related note, if women refused to make abortion a primary motivator, then there was no way they would save America’s democracy. I did not put this prediction forth as blatantly, forcefully, and regularly as I did with my other ideas, but it was something I said a couple of times but inferred more. Women were not going to save abortion rights, which is almost axiomatic with women not going to stop Dictator Don from taking office! You can’t have one without the other! Last, I am very, very proud to announce that my First Axiom holds, which I created and state thusly: Ain’t no president or ex-president ever going to be convicted of a crime or go to jail — ever. And just a bit of a caveat here: Dictator Don may have been convicted in New York of a crime, but there is a good chance he may not be sentenced. Furthermore, the judge may dismiss the case altogether. Is a conviction without a sentencing still a conviction? That is far less of a philosophical question than you may think. Also, his other legal cases were not criminal in nature; they were civil, in which he was held liable, not guilty, so the First Axiom does not apply and still holds.

I will end with this: Since I’ve proven my ability to foresee the direction of the nation years in advance, I’m going to make some pretty scary forecasts about Dictator Don’s next term. Now, either you morons can continue to ignore me at your own risk, or you can brace yourselves. I would say you could muster the courage and will to fight to get your democracy back, but honestly, it’s a bit too late for that. You f***tards killed America’s democracy, and we’re not getting it back peacefully, and I sincerely doubt Americans have the stomach for a fight. Like Nazi Germany, Americans will gladly welcome fascism as a replacement for democracy. Now, it’s a matter of survival. The end is here, morons. Look at what you did to yourselves, you stupid, stupid people! Welcome to stupid America!

I Told You So, F***tards!

How many times did I say it? How many f***ing times? You, stupid, stupid, stupid people. I told you that Americans are simply too f***ing stupid to keep their f***ing democracy. Americans don’t want democracy; they want fascism, just like half the world does. Abortion rights were never going to save this election for Democrats because, once again, abortion rights are always someone else’s problem. Always! Always! Always! How many f***ing times have I said this? How many f***ing times? So many times that I’m sick of screaming it into the void! And women were never going to save democracy. America is too misogynistic and racist to elect a woman, sadly. Hate and fear always win over hope and joy. Christ-on-the-f***ing-Cross! What part of this do you morons not understand?!?! And lest we forget the well-worn adage: It’s the economy, stupid! Always and forever! Furthermore, RepubliKKKlans actually understand that it is better to be strong and wrong than weak and right. And, of course, this is who we are! We are a racist country that hates women in power and the “other” more generally. All these things (and more) I’ve been saying and warning about for years, but no one believed me! I hate to say I told you so, but I did — often and repeatedly. I understand this country. I’ve lived in it long enough, and we consistently take one step forward and two steps back like clockwork. It never f***ing fails! But this, my f***tards, this is two steps back from which we will never recover.

So, get ready, you f***ing morons of the highest f***ing order. You guys just killed your own democracy, and you’re not going to get it back. The end is here, and we’re just getting started with the hatred! The Democratic Party is in shambles and will be entirely incapable of fighting back against RepubliKKKlans. Mark my words and mark them well! I was right to warn you idiots about dictator don starting two years ago, and I will be right about America becoming a fascist country. However, there is one prediction I got wrong; it looks like Harris will not win the popular vote — incomprehensibly — and this only strengthens MAGA world’s resolve. So, America is royally screwed because now dictator don is going to rightly claim he has a mandate. To be sure, a convicted criminal is going to win in an electoral landslide when all is said and done. I hate to break it to you, but that’s what this election was — a red tsunami! Christ! America is f***ed, and maybe we don’t deserve to keep our democracy. We did this to ourselves.

A second dictator don term is going to be just as bad as you think it will be. (Well, I mean for those paying attention, for clearly, the hoards of morons that voted for him are clueless.) I promise the next four years will be a disaster! And no one in this sh*t-for-brains country f***ing cares! No one! Because everyone always thinks dictator don’s threats and hateful vision of America don’t apply to them. They’re in for a rude awakening. America f***ed around is about to find out. Oh, well. Americans get the government they deserve and desire! Welcome to stupid America, the dumbest place on the planet. Next stop: Civil War II. Mark my words! I guess I’ll be using this blog to chronicle the demise of American democracy and the rise of American fascism. And, finally, may you live in interesting times! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Jon Meacham Is a Sh*tty Historian!

Well, I heard it! I definitely heard it this morning on Morning Joe! Idiot boy Jon Meacham admitted that it took him too long to recognize that traitor trump is a threat to America’s democracy. Meacham was a guest on Morning Joe to help promote his op-ed in The New York Times, in which he stated, “When Donald Trump began his rise to power in 2015, he struck me as a dangerous but recognizable demagogue. … To me, Mr. Trump was a difference not of kind — we had long contended with illiberalism in America — but of degree. Since the Civil War, no figure with such illiberal views had ever actually won the White House. Then, he proved me wrong.” Of course, he was wrong because he’s a moron and sh*tty historian, so he put his stupidity in writing and advertised it on a morning political news show. Fantastic!

It’s sad, really, because listening to Meacham over the years on Morning Joe has not only been insufferable but has also turned me off to other T.V. historians (except for Ken Burns; he’s a historian’s historian of AV media), who I used to revere for their knowledge and wisdom. I can’t even listen to his contemporaries — Doris Kearns Goodwin, Michael Beschloss, and Douglas Brinkley — without a jaundiced view of their interpretation of history, which is unfair to them because those other historians genuinely do have a better sense of the present moment than moron Meacham. Thanks to him, I lump them all together, and I usually turn the channel when any of them appear on MSNBC or CNN. Today, though, I did not turn the channel and heard his confession of ignorance and naïveté. (You know, precisely those qualities one looks for in a historian worth his or her salt.)

It is this ignorance and naïveté that is so troubling in a historian to me. For what is a historian? In short — and in my own words — a historian is a storyteller. Not just any storyteller but an educated, knowledgable, well-researched, and analytical storyteller. Moreover, historians do not tell stories just for the hell of it. They tell meaningful stories. Relevant stories. Impactful stories. Meaningful, relevant, and impactful to the present and the future, for we cannot understand our future without knowing where we came from in the past. Yet historians have a more important function: They provide the context and analysis of past events, revealing their significance to the present. It is this historical importance to today that is noteworthy and was a bit of wisdom, which I never forgot, imparted to me by my favorite high school history teacher.

So, Meacham completely failed in this singular task of apprehending the importance of history to understand and recognize the present. For all the times he’s been on Morning Joe discussing traitor trump before, during, and after his presidency, he always gave traitor trump the benefit of the doubt. In some instances, he declared traitor trump’s shortcomings as merely being stumbles of someone learning on the job. Oh, yeah! He’s learning alright — all the wrong f***ing things. But I guess that’s not important. He was rarely critical of traitor trump. Meacham was more an appeaser than seeing traitor trump for who he was — a dictator in training. So, the question is this: How can a historian be trusted to tell stories if he is so clueless and blind to the rhymings of the past with today? The guy talks about totalitarianism, yet can’t see the signs in traitor trump because why? The signs aren’t significant enough? Does he think America is so “exceptional” that we can’t slip into fascism? Is he so blind that he can’t see traitor trump is not an anomaly but a symptom of a greater issue in America? History is rife with examples of societies undone by a strongman. Yet he thinks traitor trump means well but can’t shoot straight? Is that Meacham’s take on the guy (before his conversion)? The orange man is not dangerous, just incompetent. In the end, don’t buy Meacham’s f***ing books or trust his storytelling, for I’m sure he’ll spin a yarn about how Hitler was just a misunderstood failed painter who stumbled into the Holocaust. (Eh, don’t worry. It’s not important.)

Yes, Harris Has the Momentum in the Final Days, But…

Is it enough? I still think not, sadly. Perhaps I suffer from PTSD over Hillary’s loss in 2016 — a victory I never thought would come to pass; that was my first correct call in this traitor trump era of mass stupidity. Then, in 2020, I miscalled Biden’s loss. I guess you could say I’ve always thought traitor trump would win every election because he truly is the Everyman of Americans; people look in the mirror, see traitor trump, and fall in love with the reflection. Nonetheless, I’m still sticking with my gut in 2024. Perhaps I’m just being stubborn at this point, unwilling to take in new information, but I can’t shake the feeling that misogyny and racism are simply too great in America — still in the 21st Century — for Harris to overcome. I just don’t think there are enough angry women over the end of Roe to beat traitor trump on the margins in the “swing” states that count. Yes, women are the most reliable voting block. But there are plenty of women who really do want traitor trump as their protector. And, yes, young men — the cohort that traitor trump is doubling down his courtship, hoping to woo to the polling booth — are the least reliable voters. If I’m wrong, then I’ll be the first one to admit it, and perhaps this blog becomes moot. We’ll see.

No Vaccines for You!

According to NBC News, “Former President Donald Trump said that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. would have a ‘big role in the administration’ if he wins on Tuesday, telling NBC News in a phone interview that he was open to some of his more controversial ideas. Kennedy, who ran for president as an independent this year before dropping his bid and endorsing Trump, has long spread conspiracies and falsehoods about vaccines and other public health matters. He has, for example, frequently claimed that vaccines are linked to autism, even though for decades, studies have debunked this theory. Asked Sunday whether banning certain vaccines would be an option during a second term, the former president didn’t rule it out. ‘Well I’m going to talk to [Kennedy] and talk to other people, and I’ll make a decision, but he’s a very talented guy and has strong views,’ Trump said. Trump declined to talk about specific roles Kennedy might play in his administration, but in recent public appearances, Trump has made clear that he is envisioning a prominent role for him.”

This is where an immensely f***ing G.D. stupid country is about to f*** around and find out — the hard way. Let’s just be clear: Neither RFK nor traitor Trump will explicitly ban vaccinations, but they would withdraw FDA approval. And what does that mean? Well, it means insurance companies will no longer cover vaccines that are not approved by the FDA. I guess the question is, What vaccines will lose the government’s blessing? Surely, COVID. And maybe every other childhood vaccination. RFK thinks childhood vaccinations cause autism. (They don’t!) So, good luck with that, f***tards! I suppose people can get around unapproved drugs by invoking the Right to Try Act. In the meantime, a vaccine that was free or required a di minimus co-pay suddenly costs hundreds of dollars because the insurance companies can get away with charging exorbitant prices. So, much for lowering Rx prices. Parents — smart ones, at least — will still want their children to be vaccinated against diseases like polio! Make childhood diseases great again! This is the government you morons are about to elect. Fantastic! Did I mention the RFK is not even a medical doctor? Eh, whatever! Nothing matters! Welcome to stupid America!

The Traitor [T]rump Abortion Ban: Let Them Die!

Mika Brzezinski from Morning Joe, airing on MSNBC, has been doing daily segments highlighting the consequences of traitor trump’s abortion ban on women’s health in various states. (As an aside, I still haven’t forgiven Mika for her Hillary-bashing during the 2016 election.) In her special segments, she reports on the health impacts on pregnant women, ranging from sterilization to death, from states’ explicit abortion prohibitions or vague statutes that often leave doctors erring on the side of caution by delaying life-saving treatment until — in many cases — it’s too late for fear of breaking criminal law. ProPublica has been reporting on similar abortion stories, all in an effort to build awareness. Of course, this is all too little, too late, because awareness should have been stoked during the 2016 presidential election, yet it was not. This will come as no surprise to anyone who has been following my posts, but I welcome these tragic stories and the death of women, not because I’m a misogynist or cruel, but because this is the reality that this sh*t-for-brains country wanted. And, again, as I have so often said, people get the government they deserve and desire. Moreover, people should live with the consequences of their votes or actions. (I find it insufferably annoying that these abortion stories never report a woman’s political perspective or, more importantly, who they voted for to be President, Senator, or Representative. Elections matter, f***tards! If they voted for traitor trump, then why the f*** are they telling their story of woe? What they’re going through is precisely what they voted for. Full stop!)

As usual and right on cue, morons of America are surprised about the fallout from overturning Roe as if women dying is some unusual and unforeseen consequence of allowing the state to determine women’s medical care. What could possibly go wrong? Well … everything that is being reported in the news! This is a direct result of America simply being too f***ing G.D. stupid to comprehend … anything. And this goes for some Democrats as well, who thought RepubliKKKlan justices would never overturn Roe (But stare decisis! Christ! Kill me now!), nor would RepubliKKKlan politicians ever allow Roe to be compromised. All stupid, all the time. Ending abortion has been a 50-year crusade, and Democrats are surprised RepubliKKKlans jumped on the chance when they did; and people are surprised that women have been thrown back to a point in time before Roe, which is a distant memory for some and a completely new reality for most. It is this new reality that most interests me. It is no surprise to me the suffering befalling women; but, apparently, most women have been completely caught off guard. Yet, many (most) still don’t care. So, let them die. Oh, well, I say. When enough women die and when enough people have been impacted (i.e., parents, husbands, siblings), and when women take to the streets to demand equal justice under the law (Where are the regular “march for our lives” protests? Nowhere!), then maybe, just maybe something will change. But until that time, women will continue to suffer and die while everyone else shrugs.

And let me say something more. Women needing an abortion should not be allowed to travel to another (blue) state to get the procedure. F*** that! These women in red states need to fix their sh*tty state first instead of running off to a blue state to be free. I’m getting a little sick of residents in red states coming to blue states to get their equality while people in blue states have to collectively suffer from the decisions of those RepubliKKKlan politicians that red states send to Congress.

Oh, and another thing. I am so f***ing sick of people thinking every pregnancy is some miracle of perfection, that every fetus is viable, and that nature always produces optimal results. A misdeveloped fetus is no different than those funky-looking vegetables you might see at the grocery store or those other anomalies you might find in the wild: a lamb with a fifth leg, a snake with two heads, or Siamese twins. While these are examples of viable variations, imagine all the unviable instances. Am I being callous to equate fetus abnormalities to freaks of nature? No! It’s just a fact of life. I think people expect too much from modern medicine and technology. Everyone always thinks everything is fixable. Well, genetic problems in the fetus rarely are. A fetus where the organs develop outside of the abdominal cavity or where the head lacks a fully formed skull or where the fetus lacks limbs, as examples, are probabilistic errors in nature. Nothing more, nothing less. We’d be a lot better off if people understood that fetal abnormalities are merely a part of life (nature). Not every union of a sperm and ova produces a successful zygote. People should know that there is a good chance that a pregnancy may not come to fruition and stop being all upset, torn up, or overly protective of a fetus that may not develop correctly. It’s just nature taking its course. It’s no one’s fault. Accept it and move on; try again. Christ! Get a f***ing grip, people! Nature is imperfect, fatally so in many cases! Call it God’s will if you must!

Come at Me Bro!

On the off-chance that Harris wins, and I mean win definitively, as in well more than 270 electoral votes and beyond the blue wall, then I welcome MAGA morons rising up in protest and rebellion. I say bring it! For I welcome the coming slaughter of MAGA morons, RepubliKKKlans, evil evangelicals, and QAnon kooks that Biden — as commander-in-chief and protector of the union and Constitution — f***ing better unleash on these f***tards! (Eh, who am I kidding? He won’t!) So, I guess that’s when the real patriots must step in and do the work for Biden and the rest of the American people. And don’t worry. Liberals are well-armed, too. Don’t confuse MAGA morons and the like who must own dozens and dozens of weapons — any one of which can only be used one at a time — with Democrats and the like who may have fewer guns but understand that you can only shoot one gun well one at a time. If anything, MAGA morons’ arsenals are just asking to be raided.

Look, f***tards, I’ve been saying this for years now: Civil war is coming, and I welcome it. We’re not going to make the same mistake twice by allowing the red states et al. to lose and then welcome them back into the fold with open arms. Oooooh, hellllll f***ing no! We must vanquish MAGA morons, RepubliKKKlans, evil evangelicals, and QAnon kooks root and stem. We must wipe the country clean of these vermin. They are a cancer on the country that must be excised entirely. No mercy. No forgiveness. No compromise. Only vengeance and complete and utter destruction of these traitors. We can no longer live together, and I don’t want to live with these people in my country. I don’t want them as friends, neighbors, co-workers, or acquaintances. They are fascists. Period! End of story! Full stop! Welcome to stupid America! As I’ve repeatedly said, the end is coming. One way or another, for one side or the other!
