What you call reveling, I call holding people in power accountable. I think it's important to point out that the people who are supposed to serve the public are instead serving themselves. And since legacy media has bowed down to Trump and are spinning the news in his favor, it looks like the rest of us have to take up the mantel and call it what it is, a load of crap.
Elon Musk is a Bond villain come to life. He has unlimited resources, zero empathy, and gets off on cruelty. He is a "brother from a different mother" with Trump who also shares these traits. I applaud people who set up to tank Tesla's stock and refusal to buy their cars. It shows that even the richest man in the world is vulnerable. He is only rich because of his father handing him a huge inheritance. He's played himself. People see him for what he is- a malignant narcissist man who gets off on power trips and cruelty.
And I think that there is a special place in hell for Kristi Noem. As you said, the puppy and goat killer. Superficial people see an attractive white woman. I see someone without a soul. She fits in perfectly with those on Trump's cabinet. Zero empathy with complete focus for what she can milk out of her current position. Did you hear that she asked for a new plane and has pitched the idea of a reality show where immigrants compete, like the show the big race, in order to win citizenship? It's complete madness.
JD Vance has the charisma of wet toast. He is so unlikable. I think Trump intentionally picked someone who wouldn't overshadow him. He knew that Vance was never going to garner the support needed to run for office after Trump. He is the worst version of someone who came from poverty and forgot what it's like to live paycheck to paycheck. He is a complete sell out.
So no, you are not a bad person. You are calling out the glaring personality flaws that a lot of people are content to overlook. For whatever reason, other than racism and "owning the Libs," I have no idea. In the end all of us are going to be collateral damage when and if this madness ever ends.
Don't beat yourself up Norm. You are providing me a much needed dose of Schadenfreude. It's the only way I can cope with what it going on. Keep up the good work!
Thank you for the kind words, Sarah. Often when you comment or post, you write something I wish I had written. “JD Vance has the charisma of wet toast.” Hahaha, that was a good one. It’s funny, and it describes him perfectly. I may have to use that someday.
Thanks Norm. I feel the same way. I see the way your phrase things and say to myself, "Why didn't I think of that?" That's what's so great about reading other people's post. You find new ways of saying things.
I have 3 days off from work for the Memorial holiday. That in itself is something to celebrate.
Hope you are enjoying your weekend as well. Take care.
And DT sees all woman he "hires",as "Trophy wives." Would love to know the inside relationship info on each one of them. $3000 Noem was allegedly carrying is probably just some of our tax money.
I agree with all your comments and am angry every day...even reach my highest blood pressure levels at the sound of DT speaking, knowing every word is a blatant lie. Vance is horrible. He over-acts to the point of emoting into the facial expressions of DT, his father image. He appears to have used clear Gorilla Glue on his forehead to hold his scowl in place, no matter what the topic. I guess he's struggling trying to find a brain cell up there. Pence is a Choir Boy compared to Vance, and Kamala is Saint Mother Teresa compared to any of them. Mother Teresa once quoted: "If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other." Magas belong to no one as no one wants any of them. Keep reminding us that we have to belong to each other. Hang tight and we will get thru this Hell on Earth.
Hi Kate. As you know, there is a lot to be angry about these days. I feel lucky to have a forum such as this to release my anger. I don’t want my Substack to always be an angerfest, although sometimes it must seem that way. It’s going to be a long four years, that’s for sure, but I’m confident we’ll survive it somehow. We always do.
Yes, we have to move on. I try to move away from it but our cloudy and cold days don't help. It's hard to live in Disneyland when I'm not really there. Wherever I am, there I go....and his face and words make me so angry I have to turn off the TV and kick a can or drink one. It's sad. I used to be a happy person. I am an Aquarian, after all. I hold too many feelings inside. Your blusters on occasion make me feel not so alone with my thoughts. Empty them out of you soul whenever you need to. We all understand your anger and frustration.
Absolutely true! But, if I let it rip by the way I feel all the time each and every day and night, I'd have to change my Substack to "Let it Rip" and release all my anger with cuss words I don't even know the meaning to. And I'd get dumped. After all, I am a 'lady' as my grandmother always told me, so there is a lot of pressure trying to live up to that when I wanted to be a cowboy when I grew up

Sometimes, you just have to let it rip. Can’t keep it all bottled up inside. I’m sure it’s therapeutic for me to write the stuff I do.
