Delaware’s 10 Most Gullible Dumbfucks

Filed in National by on November 30, 2020 5 Comments

The most gullible dumbfuck is Michele Rollins of Greenville who contributed $58,400 to Trump and Trump supporting pacs.

See the next 9 most gullible dumbfuck (measured in money) below the fold.  Three notes on my methodology:

1) Looking at totals contributed isn’t really fair to the broke-ass gullible dumbfucks who really felt the $500 they donated while to Michele Rollins, $58,000 is nothing.

2) Rollins and the other top ten most gullible dumbfucks might be much dumber than these figures show. I only searched by “Trump” in the title and they may have contributed to any number of “Patriot” “Jesus” “Horny for the Flag” PACs that supported Trump without putting his name on the masthead.

3) These figures explode the myth that there are sensible “Mike Castle” Republicans hiding out in “Never Trump” enclaves like Greenville, waiting to take back the party.  The wealthy Republicans are every bit as susceptible to Trump’s racist bullshit as the broke-ass losers. The chateaux country zip (19870) contributed $366,490 alone.

Song of the Day 11/29: Raspberries, “Overnight Sensation (Hit Record)”

Filed in Arts and Entertainment by on November 29, 2020 1 Comment

Though they’re now acknowledged as founding fathers of power pop, Raspberries weren’t fully appreciated in their time. Their Mod-based sound was considered lightweight, their teen-angst lyrics banal, their matching-suits look either eight years too early or eight years too late. In 1972 their bubblegummy “Go All the Way” hit No. 5, and several lesser hits […]

MAGAs threaten to boycott GA Senate runoff; President Donald Trump’s demonization of mail-in voting may have cost him votes in the recent election. Now, his demonization of Georgia’s entire electoral system is hurting his party’s chances at keeping the Senate. Driven by Trump’s insistence that Georgia’s elections are indelibly rife with fraud, conspiratorial MAGA figures […]

Song of the Day 11/27: L.T.D., “(Every Time I Turn Around) Back in Love Again”

Filed in Arts and Entertainment by on November 27, 2020 0 Comments

For reasons that don’t matter anymore, disco mostly sucked. But it was closely related to funk, which meant some truly funky music got dance-floor exposure, too. L.T.D. (it stood for Love, Togetherness and Devotion) was founded in 1968 by four horn players from Sam & Dave’s backing orchestra; by the time they landed a recording […]

Song of the Day 11/26: Poi Dog Pondering, “Thanksgiving”

Filed in Arts and Entertainment by on November 26, 2020 1 Comment

This song has nothing to do with the holiday, but I don’t care, I just like the tune. For me it’s the standout song on “Wishing Like a Maountain and Thinking Like the Sea,” the 1990 breakthrough album for what was then a world-music collective based in Austin, before leader Frank Orrall moved to Chicago […]

Song of the Day 11/25: Bruce Springsteen, “Last Man Standing”

Filed in Arts and Entertainment by on November 25, 2020 2 Comments

Bruce Springsteen’s “Letter to You” album, released a month ago, got reviews I would characterize more as respectful than enthusiastic. Many of the songs replicate the arena-rock template Springsteen laid down 40 years ago, but most are neither written nor delivered with the passion he had in the ’80s — Springsteen said he wrote nine […]

Song of the Day 11/24: Dave Clark Five, “Glad All Over”

Filed in Arts and Entertainment by on November 24, 2020 3 Comments

When the Beatles led the first wave of the British Invasion, the band that challenged them in popularity wasn’t the Rolling Stones, who were still playing blues covers — it was the Dave Clark 5. Unlike the skiffle-influenced Merseybeat sound of the Beatles and other Liverpool bands, the north London-based DC5 were straight-up rock-and-rollers. They […]
