28 VI 2021: Trump’s lost cause

Donald Trump persists in his claim that the election was stolen from him. His claim may become comic, for I think investigation into the Trump Organization will show that it has usually been Trump that did all the stealing. Trump’s big lie campaign will continue to be enfeebled and soon members of the Cult and lying politicians will be the only one’s keeping the Grand Old Pretense alive. So I’m wondering if we are going to see “Stop the steal” transformed into another “Lost Cause.” We’ll see statues of Trump erected in the courthouse squares of all the most backward counties. These will be paid for by a new women’s organization, The Daughters of the Chicanery. And racists, misogynists, homophobes, and well-to-do preachers will, in their cups, shed a tear for their lost cause.
