Biden has the immunity power to rebalance the SCOTUS court, and save democracy, before he leaves office. An 80 yr old with nothing else to look forward to in life.

I've been hacked again and it's hard to complete a post. Those sons a-bitches are relentless. I have to remember what I start to write so that I can complete a thought and sometimes I just lose it, literally and figuratively. I have lost respect for our government, and it saddens me. This is unbearable to admit, but it's like being abandoned as a child. It's a very lonely feeling knowing that you are not cared for. It is a cold threatening world now with no protection from the evil that lurks around every Republican Nazi corner that we will fall victim to.

Rick, congrats on the incredible prediction! You sure know how to predict it! Kamala won by a landslide, the Trump campaign was in shambles, he cant even form a sentence! Love your insight! You are a mans man Rick! You definitely have high testosterone, I was wondering what gender do you think your kid will be? Keep it up Rick 🇺🇸😜

I haven't stopped praying and doubt if I ever will. This has been devastating for us all. But we have recovered from far worse. Trump is just an in-your-face ugly son of a birch. His haughtiness is stomach churning and the way he flaps his arms/hands, whatever, oh God, he's just awful to watch. I haven't watched any news yet. I've only kept informed via Substack. It's about all I can handle at this time. Thank you, Rick, for hanging in there with me. America needs you.

All I hear from Sludge is hatred and getting even with others. Getting back at those who he could not get his way with. Trump is not a well-balanced individual so that these next 4 years are not going to be fun for most.

Rick, how are you? Haven't heard from you today and am concerned. No doubt you feel devastated

about the election results, particularly when you have sacrificed so much to keep the devil at bay. But

know that your work has been very much appreciated. If you need a bolthole to rest and recover

before taking up arms (your pen) again , you are welcome here in Canada. Stay safe.

18 Million less people voted this time around, inclusive of both parties. A lot of GOP people could not bring themselves to vote at all, and a lot of democrats too. So they stayed home. This is America. In a democracy, one gets the government one votes for.

Its because of Democratic cheating in 2020, are you kidding me with this logic?

Expand full comment

Hard numbers pal, there was no cheating. 154 million people voted in 2020; in 2024, 136 million. Apathy won.

We the People have spoken.

And for at least 2 years we're all stuck with that.

Someone called last night an "American selfie" and, for me and millions of others, it's not a pretty picture. But for millions more, it's the start of a new Golden Age - or so they hope.

In reality, it's just another example of the Ruling Class of Billionaire elites who have duped the country into thinking they (Trump & Co) are in it for you (the People).

But as always in history, the Rulers are in it for themselves.

I'll give Trump credit for this: he's the Greatest Conman in American History.

But his snake oil is toxic, it's the old fascist poison in a new red-white-and-blue bottle. It's "American" snake oil, which apparently makes it good enough for 70 million people.

Well, it's an old adage that says "absolute power corrupts absolutely" and Trump now has absolute power: WH, Senate, House of Reps, SCOTUS, and "immunity". Knowing Trump as we all do, he will not use that absolute power benignly. And who knows the depths of his "retribution". He'll release the Jan.6 "patriots", he'll implement Project 2025; will he get a firing squad to shoot Liz Cheney in the face? probably not, but he'll make life hell for her and all of his political opponents. Who's gonna stop him? SCOTUS has made him literally "above the law" - IMMUNE from the law.

So, the narcissistic conman cons a nation into giving him total power, promising a Golden Age, when his heart is filled with hatred and retribution.

The People have spoken, like they spoke in Germany in 1932 and gave another narcissistic psychopath total power. And that did not end well.

So we'll see ... was JD Vance right when he called Trump "America's Hitler" (that was before Vance got invited into the Mar-a-lago billionaire's club). Stay tuned.

The only quality Trump has is a lack of morals or conscience. The rest is an opportunity offered by a corrupt GOP, led by a radical Heritage Foundation, and a corrupt Federalist Society. And corrupt ES&S.

A best friend from the way back, a tragic alcoholic, had the best expression to describe this and I have no evidence to suggest it's not original:

Democracy is the form of government where everyone gets what the majority deserves.

No but it's okay that He likes the man who fucj a small child and gets her pregnant and then leaves without supporting the baby. That's nothing but crap in my book!
