No one. Nary a soul won a clear and distinct victory yesterday, though many hints to the future were given. For sure, the law lost. Trump fought the law and he won - in a way. He was acquitted in this abortion of a trial, but his guilt is out there for all to see and even the GOP Senators acknowledged it, first denying,then admitting, then saying it was not an impeachable level. So what did we need to impeach? Perhaps Trump singing the Russian national anthem, or wearing a uniform of a general in its army, or perhaps throwing open the gates of a new detention cmp for Ukrainians or even Americans who disagree with him. There is nothing, I repeat, nothing to stand in his way now as long as he claims it is for reelection. So the wimpy Senators have said, so they have determined. The only one with the courage of his convictions was Romney and shame on the rest. I hope they get their just desserts come election time.
The loser of the State of the Union was us. Yes, us, as we were subjected to not a serious and meaningful speech, but to a rally, yet another political rally for his reelection. Shame on him and shame on us that we have allowed this country to sink so low, to have a dangerous buffoon as its ostensible leader. And yet, perhaps that a-hole lost as well when he displayed his rudeness towards Pelosi and then was shamed by her ripping up his speech for so little was it worth.
This man has caused us to be shamed in front of the world, cheapening all things that matter. He has been handing out medals that are supposed to be earned by great efforts and contributions and he topped it off by giving one to Rush Limbaugh!!! Seriously? And next up is David Duke? Putin? The Charleston rioters? He has cheapened anything of value and made America a running joke in the world. Losers all of us.
But there is hope. Buttigieg is leading in Iowa and Klobuchar has pulled double digits so if the papers would give her a fair shake she could go far. I believe she is the best we have, steady, a woman, a winner, a sensible person with head on straight. Perhaps we will pull this off but at least, the very least, get rid of Trump for if not, we will lose America.
Those who stood with courage bring all this time, Pelosi, the head House honchos, Romney, well, they are winners. Trump and the other GOP cowards are losers and I hope they go down the drain, Collins and Murkowski and Alexander among them. As for Graham....!!!!Speaking and then ignoring your own convictions to follow party crooked lines, well, it speaks for itself and oh, by the way, let them justify his cost of billions of dollars to maintain that horrific wall he is building, all the better to imprison us. At the same time, he threatens to veto aid to Puerto Rico after their awful earthquake. His meanness and vindictiveness is just intolerable!
Well. In any case I am ready to go out and enjoy a country where there are crowds and beautiful people and history and no Trump waiting to take over as King. Though I do believe he thinks he can do so in America!! At least he thinks so and wishes so.
Well, Shalom for today, and go and come back from your day's trips in peace.
