The Derp State
I wondered what Draco Malfoy was doing yesterday asking Comey questions. Turns out that was Trey Gowdy being his regular Republican asshole self. Republicans like Gowdy are not elected to govern. they are elected to fuck shit up. Gowdy was doing his damnedest to fuck up those hearings yesterday. Muddy the waters. Give the wingnut press some molehills with which to build mountains of outrage among their empty headed subscribers and listeners. If you edited the Republican portions out of the hearings and listened to the Democratic and Republican sections separately, you'd never guess they were taking part in the same hearings...on the same day...on the same continent... during the same century.
When you think about it, Trump wasn't elected to govern "The United States of America," he was elected to fuck shit up in a country that only exists in the right-wing's imagination. He is applying himself to that task with alacrity, and the results are splashing onto us here in reality. Steve Bannon, the most powerful man in Trump's White House has a "disturbing history of bigotry, nihilism, and apocalyptic delusions" should not be allowed within 1,000 miles of power and yet, there he is. We are not Bannon's fellow citizens. We are mere bystanders in the vicinity of the GOP's mental breakdown trying to avoid random kicks and punches.
