Paging Wayne Newton---

Schadenfreude, Donald, Schadenfreude.
I don't care if you're quite annoyed.
"Lock her up!" was your favorite chant
Now, there's been a hitch,
You're in the ditch- Karma's a bitch!

Schadenfreude, Donnie, Schadenfreude----------

Supposedly, Trump has challenged Joe to submit to a pre-debate drug test and says he'll submit

to one also. A couple of questions for him:

1,) Instead of just a urine screening, which would show up drug use in the past several days, will you consent to a hair sample analysis, which will reveal drug use---including amphetamines, i.e., Adderall---during the past 90 days?

2.) As long as a lab will be involved, why not a drop of blood (or whatever) for a DNA test? (Several women might find that useful.)

At Tuesday's debate, when Trump starts belligerently demanding that Joe answer his

venomous questions, Joe should just smile, shake his head and say something like "Mr. Trump (not "president" Trump), only a fool would bother responding to your irrelevant and unhinged questions. I am not a fool" and then move on with comments about the topic the moderator asked them to address.

Whenever possible, he should ignore Trump. Whenever Trump starts coming unwrapped about being ignored, Joe should laugh at him and, again, get back to the topic that Fox chose to be discussed in that time frame.

We may watch Trump "have the big one" on national tv.

Trump has the ethics and uses the techniques of a child molester.

To get what he wants, the molester might offer all sorts of short-term enticements: candy, a puppy, the promise of a movie. Or, he might employ fear and anxiety to enable him to use a child: "Your Mom was in a bad wreck! I'm here to take you to her in the hospital!" Either way, he does not care at all about the welfare or happiness of the children. It's ALWAYS all about him.

After years of vile racism, Trump offers making Juneteenth a federal holiday to African Americans.

After announcing policies that would end Social Security by 2023, Trump now waves the fantasy of "3.3 billion dollars worth of pharmacy coupons" to beleaguered seniors.

And, he has tried, unsuccessfully, to scare suburban women silly by predicting that "Biden and BLM" will bring violence and squalor to their neighborhoods.

Trump is a pervert and a perp.

"Eyes on the prize". Whatever it takes.

Consider some of the people whose lying could have a great personal impact on your life:

your spouse, close friend, pastor or other faith leader, foreman, supervisor, doctor, counselor, superior officer----others that may be unique to you.

Now, how many thousands of lies would you endure before you found some way to sever your relationship and disassociate yourself from that abuse?

Would you respect anyone who just continued to allow the daily insults to their intelligence and value by transparent lies that no reasonable person could possibly believe?

The price of STILL supporting Trump is simply the abandonment of any smidgen of self respect. People who can be persuaded to think so little of themselves must be so spiritually bereft that they see no alternative.

Tha past four years have demonstrated that Trump couldn't organize a two car parade and would

tear up a shot put if anyone left it in his care.

And, this is the guy who's going to coordinate a multi-state scheme involving hundreds of state legislators, engineer veto-proof votes to steal electoral votes and then bribe or threaten at least 5 on the SCOTUS to cloak the coup in constitutionality?

That hair-on-fire hysteria should cause you to spew your coffee all over your keyboard.

So, Trump won't "commit to a peaceful transfer of power". SO. EFFING. WHAT?

Why even ask him if he will? Doesn't just asking him imply that he has a CHOICE? He does not have a choice!

He does not consent to the election. Will that stop it?

He does not consent to being criticized. Has that stopped it?

He probably would not consent to Joe's next breath. Is Joe still with us?

We will drag his skanky ass out of the White House if he refuses to leave after losing the election and it will mean NOTHING that he doesn't "consent"! All the breathless outrage about his arrogant statement has done just one thing: it has moved 203,000 covid deaths to the back burner.

When has "I don't consent" ever stopped a criminal from going to prison?
