Clay Bennett for January 22, 2021

Glue is good, as is duck tape. But some things he broke basically cannot be fixed, like trying to glue fine china back together. Can un-dig those mines. Can’t un-pollute the atmosphere without spending a lot of time at it. It’ll even be harder than it should be to hire top quality people to places like the FDA and the CDC.

Still, it’s a great image, and it’s PERFECT if you focus on “the nation” and not the details.

“I’m a douche-bag, you’re glue!…”

“We’re gonna need a larger glue tube.”

The problem is, Trump petulantly shattered a lot of things, but did try to put them back together sometimes — with Crazy Glue. Unfortunately all his life he never was any good at doing even jigsaw puzzles. He impatiently jammed the pieces together and demanded people agree they were done, or he fired them. (—

Just one glue tube?? He’ll need a whole pallet of glue tubes … STAT!!

Trump is bewailing the lack of a bigger hammer.

Now we now how “SUPER GLUE” is being used for a broken Fascist’s Administration after Trump was a Bull in a China Shop.

My congressman is chasing a Trump WTF:

Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi sent a letter to Christopher Wray, Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) – in the wake of the U.S. Capitol building attack – inquiring as to why the FBI never completed a report on domestic terrorism, which was required under the 2020 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA).

Joe’s gonna need more than one tube!

Einstein supposedly said doing the same thing over and over with failed results is stupid or to that effect. So why do we do it to ourselves. A Republican administration comes in and screws up everything. Then a Democrat is elected to fix it. As soon as it is fixed, a Republican is again voted in to screw it up worse than before!!!

I know it’s only imagery, but, the only tool t$$$p ever had in his hand was “his own”.

I don’t know how long this euphoria will last, but I’m enjoying it, while I can. Life has a way of bursting bubbles.

I guess drawing trump with a wrecking ball is harder than just giving him a sledge hammer.

I hope ol’ Joe sticks to his guns! (’Cause you-know-who surely will.)

Joe is late getting his cabinet due to Trump. No one person can do everything needed to run this country effectively, as Trump showed. Unfortunately with the senates rules we are shown that only one traitor can gum up the rules. It will take as long as the senate wants to delay the conformations. Republicans may no longer be in charge but have enough traitors to seriously slow the conformations. Biden needs many other patriots to help him bring things back to normal.

There was a guy from the National Archives whose job it was to follow trump around with scotch tape and piece together all the documentation trump ripped up, in violation of the Presidential Records Act.

Of course, Trumpers don’t think that Trump should be held accountable or get punished for any damage he’s done or laws he’s broken… although they’re quick to demand Biden should be punished for things they allege he did – but even their own GOP investigators can find no evidence of… it’s their definition of “unity”…

What President Trump accomplished. A huge tax cut, which benefited 85% of taxpayers, cut corporate tax rate, which created millions of jobs and primed the economy. When he took office the Dow stood some 18,000. As he left, it is 30,000. How many trillions of dollars does that represent?He revitalized the military. Investing more than 2 trillion in modernizing the obsoletemilitary left by BHO. He created a new branch of armed forces, the Space Force.He attacked excess regulations. He got rid of at least two obstructionist regulations forevery new regulation: the actual ratio was something like 16 cashiered for every new one.That opened the spirit of entrepreneurship and made it possible for his administration to oversee Operation Warp Speed. That brought at least 3 effective vaccines for theChinese virus to the market in less than a year, something the experts (like Dr. Fauci)predicted would take 5 years.He was unable to get rid of Obamacare because John McCain voted with the Democrats. Still Trump managed to get rid of the onerous provision, the individual mandate.He cleared out the Veterans Administration and made sure that those who served our country would not be subjected to second or third class medical care.Trump nominated and saw confirmed 3 constitutionalist Supreme Court Justices andat last count 234 federal judges, a stunning achievement.He brought peace to the Middle East. Trump saw normalization of relations between Israel and several Arab countries, something his predecessors going back to JimmyCarter had tried but failed to obtain.He drastically cut illegal immigration across our Southern border. He largely unwoundthe insane witch hunts undertaken on college campuses under the auspices Title IXmandates.These are just a few specifics. Behind them was the populist spirit that Trump embodies. It’s the anti-globalist, America first spirit of individual liberty.Article by Roger Kimball, Epoch Times

LOL, Muddy is at it again spinning propaganda…

Trump’s tax cut was biggest and “permanent” for the rich, whereas everybody else got far less and it expires soon. Instead of creating millions of jobs, companies used the money to buy back their own stock – simultaneously artificially pumping up the stock market to their own benefit, and increasing their own holdings. The Dow mainly benefits the rich, and not much else since trickle-down doesn’t work. The military was not obsolete, and Trump took money away from it for his wall. He did not create a new branch of armed forces – he just renamed an existing department of the Air Force, and he never set up any facilities for this “Space Force”. He attacked regulations that suppressed unregulated business abuses and pollution… maybe the ratio of 16:1 Trump regulations that favor his rich buddies at the expense of the population is true. Operation Warp Speed has proven to be a disappointment at best, and a lie about resources at worst. The first COVID-19 vaccination was developed without using any Trump money or effort, and so far there are only two – not three – vaccinations available to the public. We’re still waiting for Trump’s “beautiful replacement for Obamacare that will be released in two weeks” (perpetually, since Trump never had one). His VA changes were continuations of what had already started under Obama. Trump did appoint a lot of judges, thanks to McConnell’s obstruction to create so many vacancies… but all Presidents appoint judges. Peace in the Middle East? Then why all the turmoil still there, plus now Iran is more heated up than when he first took office? Illegal immigration has mainly slowed at the southern border because Trump’s failed economy killed off too many jobs. “Witch hunts” are misnomers Trump applies to legal investigations that he doesn’t like, and Trump sure had an affinity for starting new witch hunts based upon conspiracy theories. 30,534 Trump lies.

Or to repair.

I told you Unhappy Gilmore couldn’t stay away; he just changes sockpuppets. (He’s been doing it so long I’ve forgotten the name of the first one I ran into.)

Excellent visual — good job Clay ♥

Morning Sam, morning Ralph.
