Anyone else besides me suffering from the debilitating disease TOES?

Trump Overkill Exhaustion Syndrome?

Y’know, when the world’s most unpunished law flauter just keeps on and on and on, and you just cope with the transgressions, as a helpless bystander with:

So?
And?
Yeah yeah yeah…
(Sigh) Really? Oh wow,,,,
Whaddaya gonna do?
That’s MAGA for you…
So you want a President Vance, eh?


And so on…
Don’t get me wrong, I haven’t given up on the Democrats doing the right thing IF they win the midterms (and if you don’t acknowledge the Big IF, you ain’t been payin’ attention). But in the meantime these are heinously ghoulish people who have skillfully figured out how to heist this country and destroy our image the world over playing the long game since the Southern Strategy slithering into turning the party from GOP to GROYP.

Meanwhile, our wonderfully BLUE party continues to get hammered by the MAGAts obviously, the so-called “Never Trumpers” singing the “Both Sides Hymns” and coaching with unsolicited advice to change the messaging and move further to the right, the MSM Sane Laundry Service, and the virtue-signaling litmus testing one-trick ponies who conveniently forget that winning elections is STILL key.

And we haven’t even finished year one.

I don’t follow all the news. I look at the headlines.

This fascist criminal syndicate is run by republicans. Until Republican voters detox themselves of hate, racism, lies, and anger …there’s no stopping this.

Yes, the courts and several Dem states are doing a great job in the courts ,

But about 1/3 of the people love the constant chaos.

I’m hopeful for the midterms, I’ll do everything to get out the vote ! However, I expect there will be widespread voter harassment and manipulation of the vote tallies.
