Note to Red State governors taking up space yakking about their reactionary plans: Shut up.

The governor of Texas was featured in breaking news about his profound plan to get over this COVID nuisance for the future of his denizens. This would be one Greg ABBOTT, whose wheelchair is a reminder that one of his few accomplishments (before becoming governor?) was to spearhead putting a cap on what other victims could recover in lawsuit compensation, AFTER he got something like $15 millions suing after a rotted tree fell on him putting him in a wheelchair. The cap for others who might sue is far less ($250 grand?).

The rest of what he does as a Repuke is to refuse to expand Medicaid for the most needy, persecute Choice clinics, oppose OBAMAcare, aim for voter suppression, blah blah the usual.

So, if W. Bush could squat in the Texas Weak Governor job, *anybody* can! Like if SHITLER is “presidunce” *ANYBODY* can be!

So his deep plan consists of parroting any catch-phrase from SHITLER’s writers that he could: “Executive order… open it up … invisible enemy … (naming endless list of rich business owners)“ plus playing gracious EmCee introducing his prop stooges and on and on, delivered with that charming Tough Guy tone and dazzling smile. It would never occur to him to expand Medicaid and delete other cuts he has made all these years.

Oh, and his Select committee for making up more plans for the future consists of all of the Repukes squatting in statewide offices, almost all of whom have personal court cases against them. Maybe they’ll take another clue from SHITLER’s KARDASHIAN reality policy of getting their selected cases out of prisons – could come in handy later!

Surprisingly, he forgot to mention China, or “Gee-eye-nah,” which the wingnut yakkers in media are chirruping gleefully about so as to take a break from having to dig for something to defend SHITLER with – Gee-eye-nah Gee-eye-nah Gee-eye-nah! SOMEBODY ELSE TO BLAME, breaking momentarily from “divisiveness” in blaming Dems, so as that way they don’t have to talk about all the empty wingnut policies like Deficits, no-cash-for-programs-or-prevention-or-research. Their next step will be for the sea levels to cover coastal cities before they get serious about climate change.

But then, when the result of wingnut policies will be WAR brought on by starvation, dirty air and water, and economic disparity – the wingnuts will be in their Heaven, consisting of WAR spending, throwing bundles of cash like Shrub’s footballs and SHITLER’s paper towels.

The two-bit politicians (as opposed to the true public servants) are having what drew them to politics - bloviating, captive audiences, posing as square-jawed "leaders" and being able to yell direct orders at people. Here's a plan for them: Shut up, get out of public offices, go into preaching or entertainment jobs, realize the True-YOU!1

2. The problem with most Republican Governors is they don't believe in governing.

They like power and what it brings.

They also have the ideology that the people at the top (them) are "naturally" destined to be on top. They want to keep people in their places and will do whatever it takes to make that happen.

3. "don't believe in government" - exactly, want no regulation on themselves, "freedom" for themselves

but are zealous about imposing their side of social issues on everybody else.
