Sometimes it’s like we are all characters in a strange & wicked fascinating show. You know, one of the ones on Netflix or something where ya get written out one season only to reappear later so they can screw with you some more.
We are getting used to this crap by force of repetition. Oh, right now we are over-sensitive to every prick of injustice and immorality, but to stay sane we become increasingly de-sensitized. The candidates running against Mr. Trump will face incredibly close scrutiny. Not one of them will measure up in the current atmosphere of an oversensitive anti-Trump camp.
What was once unthinkable weirdness and outrage is well on its way to becoming normalized. And every time the courts – or the court of public outrage says NO we can’t do that, this is not who we are, the thing becomes a real possibility [ as in well, ha ha, we actually could do that]. It’s an all too real gas-lighting of America.
Trying to live up to our ideals and doing what is right is just so hard. Maybe we aren’t supposed to be the good guys! Being bad is way easier and a lot more fun and like… interesting!
Serious people think of catastrophe and tales of disaster & immorality as cautionary lessons. For real maybe we’re just being set up for next season’s exciting adventures.
DeVos statement on President Trump supporting Special Olympics: “I am pleased and grateful the president and I see eye to eye on this issue, and that he has decided to fund our Special Olympics grant. This is funding I have fought for behind the scenes the last several years.”
GOD, she’s as much of a bad liar as trump himself!
Thanks, Mr. Two Bulls. Nice job. I see that you have made Ms. DeVos over in the fashion of Mary Poppins, complete with a grimace that approaches rigor mortis.
Great one, Marty! There is so much to love about this one. I especially love it that you gave Betsy the ruby slippers and Wicked Witch stockings. If only we could drop a house on all of those clowns.
I was astonished that even a Republican would want to cut Special Olympics! The Special Olympics are NOT on the CuttingBoard!Although if anyone did it would be a republican, but Still…It’s the Special! Olympics !!

Has she become a liability ?

Republicans are used to humiliation. It’s a boiler plate job requirement.
.
Do even Trump Disciples believe that Betsy made either decision on her own?
Just another needed distraction and deflection from the suppression of the Mueller report.

But she is so representative of Republican’s gut feel that education works against them and actually DOING something about it.

Being thrown under a school bus would be the height of irony.
Love the way the big sleeves make for tiny looking hands. Nicely done.

The ruby slippers are a nice touch.

A beautiful rendition of the clueless expression of DeVos. I am so enjoying your work here!

It wasn’t only that she was cutting Special Olympics. She was also cutting funds to teach blind and deaf students.

Normally I do not approve of people being thrown under the bus. But hopefully she’ll drag him under with her.
