Unsustainable

 Robert Reed (not the dad from The Brady Bunch, the retired police officer from East Lampeter, Pennsylvania) says the election was "stolen from Donald Trump."  He is, however, ready to move on.  I know the feeling, Mr. Reed.  Four years ago the lady got 2,868.686 more votes than your guy and all she won was a trip home to Chappaqua.  I had to move on, too, grousing all the way -- read this blog if you don't believe me.  But I respect your willingness to be an adult about this.  There should be more Republicans like you.  Start a blog, you'll feel better.

It seems that Mr. Reed and like-minded voters are a lonely minority.  Most of the Mouse King's base are still roiled with rage, egged on by office holders and propagandists for reasons of their own.  For example, the pride of the Peach State, newly elected Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, tweets, "Every Republican that isn't fighting for @realDonaldTrump's 2020 landslide victory is supporting the Chinese Communist Party takeover of America."  She didn't just read that in the QAnon Qarterly, either -- it's a drumbeat among the NeverBidens.  Lin Wood, the Darrow of the Dirteaters, knows why Mitch McConnell did treason yesterday:  "Mitch McConnell is NOT a Patriot.  Ask his wife.  She knows."  McConnell's wife, Secretary of Transportation Elaine Chao, was born in Taiwan, which is not only not Communist China but is desperate not to become Communist China; nevertheless, guilt by racist association and/or geographic proximity.  Happy as it makes me to see McConnell the recipient of racist slander for a change, this is extremely fuckbonkers even for Wood.  Taylor Green was praised by freshly pardoned Michael Flynn ("Now here's a Georgian who gets it & is demonstrating courage unlike many other Republicans"), while Sebastian Gorka chimed in, "@Senatemajldr caves to the mob, refuses to wait for the final January 6th Electoral College count."  With friends like these, Mitch...

Some dead-enders promise to make all sorts of trouble when Congress accepts the results of the electoral vote.  (Will Lauren Boebert bring guns for everyone?)  Ron Johnson (R-WI) says he won't play.  He will, however, hold hearings because "a large percentage of the American population don't view this election as legitimate."  A large percentage also question the moon landing, the shape of the earth and the death of Natalie Wood, but Johnson won't be looking into those because they offer limited opportunities to repeat "HUNTER BIDEN'S TAXES" at least thirty times.  As a witness he plans to call Ken Starr, who is still outraged over Trump's impeachment.  Can you wait to hear what he has to say about election fraud?  Then perhaps one of the Democrats can ask him about his stint at Baylor and the rapey football players, which is certainly just as relevant.

China -- excuse me, Communist China -- is so toxic among the profas (opposite of antifas, I just coined it) that David Perdue is sending years of his life down the memory hole to escape the taint.  Before he was a senator he was a Sara Lee executive who specialized in closing Georgia facilities and finding cheaper labor in Asia.  He did the same for Pillowtex, a "failed North Carolina textile manufacturer" of which he was CEO.  Not only has he scrubbed his own CV, he likes to accuse Jon Ossoff of taking money from the CCP and being endorsed by the Communist Party USA.  So do not waste time looking at this picture of the Perdues visiting the Great Wall, because they would never.

There is hope, even in Washington, it seems:  Mike and Cindy Pompeo invited 900 close friends to their Christmas coronavirus party; only 70 RSVP'd and even fewer decided that eating canapes with a failed Secretary of State was worth risking their lives.  Mike is currently quarantining, so he can finish off all the party food while he waits for another test result.

Fox News is dead.  Trump said so.  Also he's annoyed by all the "unedited commercials" and says they're "floating in limboland."  (Could he mean "Limbaughland"?)  But it's still the place to go when you want to get a message to Dear Loser Leader, and it's where Lindsey Graham went to express his support for a special prosecutor to investigate All The Bidens.  Poor Lindsey, he'd give Trump a lap dance if he had a lap.

Dear, dumb Kelly Loeffler had no idea she was posing with a former Klan leader.  She thought Chester Doles was just an ordinary militia founder and Trump supporter who marched with "Unite the Right" in Charlottesville.  She would like you to ignore this picture and help her save America from dangerous extremists like Rev. Warnock.

OK?  OK.
