    Oh, what’ll you do now, you crazy-haired bum?

    Oh, what’ll you do now, you senile old one?

    .

    You a-goin’ to back out ’fore the rain starts a-fallin’?

    To jet through the night to live in Las Vegas

    Where your people are many and their heads are all empty

    Where the chips of all colors are drowning their reason

    Where the hotels downtown all house desperate losers

    Where the executioner’s guns are always well hidden

    Where greed is worshiped, where ideals are forgotten

    Where red is the color, where none even wonder

    .

    And you’ll sell it and tweet it and speak it and breathe it

    And deflect from the truth till no one can see it

    Then you’ll gloat in your room until ya start stinkin’

    But you’ll know your fate well before ya start dyin’

    .

    And it’s a hard, it’s a hard, it’s a hard, it’s a hard

    It’s a hard rain’s a-gonna fall

    C’mon, be realistic; so long as he doesn’t croak, it’s 6 more years. His base is as strong as ever, if anything ever comes out of the Mueller investigation it ain’t gonna stick, and the Democrats are still putting forward dinosaurs like Pelosi to be their public face (I can’t wait to see who they are going to run against Agent Orange). Don’t call me a pessimist, just calling it like I see it all around me here in Murica’s heartland.

    Icebreakers! The Coast Guard is operating with only two old icebreakers and has been fighting for decades to get up-to-date ships built. You want to fund something, that’s where the money should go, not a stupid stationary wall.

    Today’s Trump reference, “it is a tale, told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.” Apologies to Shakespeare.

    Federal and state investigators are scrutinizing the employment documents of immigrants without legal status who allegedly worked at President Donald Trump’s golf club in New Jersey, according to their attorney.

    Anibal Romero, a Newark attorney who represents five undocumented immigrants who say they worked at the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, said in an interview Saturday that he met with investigators from the New Jersey state attorney general’s office and two FBI agents in November, before the workers began to go public with their stories.

    Romero said he turned over fake green cards and Social Security numbers that supervisors at the golf club allegedly gave one of his clients, Victorina Morales, a 44-year-old Guatemalan national. He also gave investigators the pay stubs of Sandra Diaz, a Costa Rican native who now has legal status but said she was undocumented when she worked at the club for three years.

    The FBI agents told him they would “coordinate” with the New Jersey state attorney general’s office, Romero said.

    Actually, I too am hoping for 2 more years — 2 more years in which the White House will be powerless to wreak any more havoc because it’ll be completely consumed fending off investigations, subpoenas, and the full, drawn-out impeachment process. The alternative is that we get President Pence, his Dominionist agenda, and a subservient GOP-dominated Senate that’s willing to give him everything he wants in a desperate effort to retain some shreds of relevance.

    “If we want to be governed by someone we wouldn’t do a business deal with because their — their background is so shady, if we’re willing to do that, then that’s in conflict with who I think we are. And so I think it’s necessary at those times to take a stand.” Four-star Army Gen. Stanley McChrystal (retired)

    Wait, wait. This is a portrayal of Baby 2019? He’s in really bad shape before he/she’s even started. Wouldn’t he/she have been just born?

    If there’s any justice, less than that.
