Distraction, Anyone?

It's obvious that Republicans are desperately trying to deflect attention away from Trump as he, his family, his associates, et al, are being bombarded with an ongoing barrage of negative news.

From the revelations coming out of the January 6 Select Committee to the announcement that his accounting firm, Mazars, is getting out while the gettin' is good, it's clear that there is no joy in Trumpville tonight - nor will there be anytime soon.

So you Republican powers-that-be have decided that the best defense is to be completely offensive, by pointing to the Durham Report as a "bombshell" - despite the fact that it's more akin to a Fourth of July sparkler that fizzled out ten seconds after it was lit.

What you GOP clowns need to recognize is that the only thing that will distract the voters from Trump & Co's crimes is a ten-minute long video of Hillary Clinton eating a live baby while the Obamas engage in a three-way with Stormy Daniels, as Katie Porter draws obscene images on a whiteboard while Jamie Raskin hoovers-up ten lines of cocaine in the background as Adam Schiff slits the throats of his own children - and the entire video has a dynamite soundtrack composed by Bruce Springsteen in collaboration with John Williams.

If you have anything less than that, you've already failed.

Lies, deflection and gaslighting never stood the test of time. The last few days have been brutal for him and his friends and family. All in time for the midterms.
Good bye so long and see ya.
