Bozo docs

 

We thought he was at last gone,  We thought last November, and then again on Jan 20, that our 4 year nightmare had come to an end.  And in some very consequential ways there was reason for a collective sigh of relief.  Bozo no longer controlled the nuclear button.  He couldn't appoint any more wing nut alcoholic judges.  He couldn't pardon and let loose on the public any more despicable hardened criminals.  And the tweets were gone.  There was a lot to be thankful for.

 

But there was still his horrible legacy to deal with.  And while we thought he was gone, like Freddy, he keeps haunting and horrifying the nation.  And the world. 

 

Bozo is a pathological liar. He is an incompetent sociopath who spews lies, falsehoods and racist hate on a daily basis. Anyone who supports him has serious mental health issues. See See the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, DSM-5, Delusional. Its clinical.  His cult believes things totally contrary to easily ascertainable facts. 

And those of us who were not mesmerized into the delusional zombie cult were waking up every morning for 4 years wondering what new outrage the overweight bald guy in pancake makeup and a fright wig had perpetrated during the night.  It was obvious before the 2016 election – to anyone with half a brain -  that he was an incompetent sociopath.  And Bozo confirmed the obvious on a daily basis.  At first, we thought, day after day, that it just can’t get any worse.  The nights calumnies were the absolute worst.  He could go no lower.  But after a while it sunk in.  There was no bottom to his depravity.  And the outrages just kept on coming.

And we naively thought that after January 20, 2021, Bozo’s deleterious effect on America’s psyche as well as its politics and culture would at last come to an end.  But it didn’t.

Bozo brought out the absolute worst in American culture.  A lot of it has been there since the beginning.  Racism, misogyny, xenophobia, etc.  But the better angels seemed to be making progress addressing these well-known problems.  Bozo inspired and led a resurgence - a regression really, into blowing up and exacerbating the country’s worst problems.

It is somewhat of a relief that he doesn’t have the power of the nuclear button as well as all of the other powers of the presidency that he routinely corrupted and abused.  And even though Lindsay Graham will back him on another run, the likelihood of Bozo moving back into the Oval Office is remote.  Not that we can afford to relax for a minute.

While there is no question that Bozo doesn’t have a prayer of winning a fair election (true for republicans in general) he seems to be mounting a diabolical effort to totally undermine the election process - and democracy - at every level.  While it is well documented that the United States functions more like a plutocracy than a democracy, (try getting elected to any office, including dogcatcher, using just your own financial resources) at least the plutocrats have been held somewhat in check by the existing electoral process – inadequate as it is.

Now Bozo wants to undermine that process completely, and turn the US into what would essentially be a repressive dictatorship, with sham elections akin to those of his mentor Vladimir Putin.

It remains to be seen if Bozo will be successful in his effort to eliminate democracy in America.  In a recent article in The Atlantic, Robert Kagan, a plutocrat himself, sums up the worst possible case scenario.  And his fears could come to pass – but not easily.  The rule of law still has substantial influence in the U.S., in spite of the regressive tendencies Bozo injected into that institution with his judicial appointments.

It shouldn’t be remarkable that over 60 efforts by Bozo and minions to bring the big lie into court failed miserably even with republican appointment appointed judges.  One reason for that is that Bozo is a hypnotist, and both he and his acolytes are clinically delusional.  (See againDSM-5, Delusional)  The greatest legal system on the face of the earth responded robustly to the delusions perpetrated by Bozo.

There is also some hope that, though slow, the law is coming.
