Let’s play, ‘If Obama …’
Remember when MAGA (née Tea Party) morons freaked out over Barack Obama doing things like … oh, I don’t know … fist bumping with his wife? Or how about when he wore the infamous tan suit? Remember how those were the most horrible things that defaced the noble office of the presidency? So let’s play…

MAGA doesn’t care if the Orange Menace lies to them
What does the current presidential administration have in common with professional wrestling?

Why does MAGA fall for this?
The cartoon above shows how easy it is to manipulate MAGA devotees. Their worship of their incontinent Orange conman, rapist, felon, racist leads them to parrot the most inane stupidity ever spewed by an American president, and this president is the one that has spewed the most. But why is MAGA so venomous? Perhaps this:…

I want this bobblehead of Schrödinger’s senator
It’s been months since anyone heard a word from Kentucky’s Schrödinger’s senator, Mitch McConnell. He was carted in an ambulance in mid-June, and his constituents haven’t heard a word from him since. But since I keep referencing Schrödinger, I should at least provide a simple explanation of its significance. But if I write it all…
