Virtually nobody

 Wall Street doesn't donate:  it bets.  And according to CNN it's doubling down on a Biden victory despite an advanced program of election abuse.  Apparently cutting corporate taxes to pre-World War I levels just doesn't buy as much loyalty as it used to.

It's not just Trump who's shaking the tin cup.  Lindsey Graham went on "Two Foul Balls and a Miss" to whine that "they" are showering money on Jaime Harrison because "they hate my guts."  No, Lindsey, you have no guts.  

Trump told a mob of maskless fans in Swanton, Ohio, to chill about the Trumpandemic:  "It affects elderly people.  Elderly people with heart problems and other problems...You know, in some states, thousands of people, nobody young."  Then someone reminded him that old people who are still alive can hear him, so he announced a scheme to bribe them with a $200 "gift card" to pay for prescription drugs.  That would cover about two months for some people and would cost over six billion dollars, but nothing's too good for "our wonderful senior citizens."   So this is the prescription drug reform he's been promising for four years.  Can you use it at Wendy's? 

Chanting "Vote him out!" mourners at the Supreme Court booed Trump as they waited to walk past Ruth Bader Ginsburg's coffin.  So Republican congressional leaders paid her the tribute of staying the hell away as she was brought to lie in state at the Capitol.  Perhaps Andrew Cuomo will reconsider his decision to put a statue of RBG in Brooklyn.  I am against all statues except the image of Elvis in butter which graces the Ohio State Fair.  Spend that money to hire more public defenders, Governor. 

John Cornyn's campaign has branded his Democratic opponent MJ Heggar a "radical" because she has progressive policies and a lot of tattoos.  Heggar retorted, "They cover my shrapnel wounds from when my helicopter was shot down" by the Taliban in Afghanistan.  Unless he's being uncharacteristically modest about it, Cornyn never put on a uniform.  If the race tightens they'll probably claim Heggar made the whole thing up.  It worked with Max Cleland and John Kerry.

Julian Assange is fighting extradition in London and his lawyer says his situation will be worse if Trump is re-elected.  Yes, Julian, everyone's will, but most of us were not instrumental in installing him in the first place.  Let me refresh your memory:  "But her emails!"

Idiot Quote of the Week:  "Is man really capable of altering the course of an infectious disease through crowd control?" Rand Paul asked Dr. Anthony Fauci.  I didn't go to the Duke University School of Medicine, Senator, but I thought of one straight off:  Dr. John Snow had the handle removed from a single pump and ended a cholera outbreak in London in 1854.  No drugs, no vaccines.  That settles it --   Paul is not doing my laser eye surgery.  Read the whole exchange, it's glorious.  Fauci must be thinking, "I'm 78, why am I still dealing with cafones like this?"

The Mexican president Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador is described as a "nationalist," which is code for "asshole."  Farmers in the state of Chihuahua are enraged because he is repaying "water debts" to the US while they endure a drought.  Greg Abbott is annoyed that Mexico is not watering Texas as required by a 1944 treaty.  This is going to come up again as the climate inexorably changes and politicians like these pretend it isn't.  The US will quit the Paris climate agreement on November 4,  just as the election violence kicks off.  Like the coronavirus, the planet doesn't care about our politics.

Attica Scott, the only Black female state representative in Kentucky, was charged with first-degree rioting for protesting the murder of Breonna Taylor.  Taylor's killer, who "wantonly and blindly" (said the Louisville PD) fired ten times into Taylor's apartment, will face one charge of endangering the lives of her neighbors.  Yeah, that 1619 Project is way off base.  No racism here!

Trump's keepers need to make sure that he's not only powdered and diapered before a hate-rally but also gets his Lunchables.  He's become weirdly obsessed with food.  First it was the free ad for Goya products, then protesters were destroying cities with bags of soup.   Then he practically soiled himself describing how cops threw MSNBC reporter Ali Velshi around "like he was a little bag of popcorn."  Now it's canned tuna.   "They throw it, it's the perfect weight...put a curve ball on it."  (Trump was recruited by all sorts of teams.  Steinbrenner came up to him with tears in his eyes...)  Stop at the golden arches, I'm begging you.
