Everything Is So Dumb

While I know I’m being extremely paranoid to think fat fuck Mike Pompeo cares what I say about him on a very obscure blog, he IS very petty and autocratic so I would believe it if you said he did.

But, for the record any FBI agents looking this blog — I’m extremely harmless. It’s just whenever I think of America’s slip into autocracy, I think of smug fat fuck Mike Pompeo lurking in the wings to be Trump’s handpicked successor. I must note that it’s not like there’s anything particularly special about fat fuck Mike Pompeo — there are a dozen other people Trump could pick as his veep who would do exactly what Pompeo would do as POTUS.

The Man Who Would Be Autocrat

So, lulz.

But there are a few issues about Pompe that really fucking rub me the wrong way. They are issues that make me feel like getting drunk and ranting about how dangerous he is as possible autocrat.

One issue is what he did to the the State Department. Apparently, he was a horrific, corrupt Secretary of State who demeaned the the staff that he wasn’t able to drive out. Something about that really bothers me.

Another thing that bothers me is his hostile relationship to the Voice of America. All his dick moves towards reporters there is part of a broader effort on the part of the MAGA New Right to make the VOA official state media. They were working really hard to turn the VOA in a FOX News clone in the final days of the first Trump Administration.

Once Trump is POTUS again, they’re probably going to have at it again. They want the VOA to be the TASS of our coming Trumplandia autocracy. Something about that, too, really rubs me the wrong way. They’re just reporters trying to do their job, not need to make their lives and and careers pawns in the autocratic shenanigans of the MAGA New Right.

Anyway, remember, once the autocracy comes, things won’t change overnight. And, really, once Trump is president again, what will really be going on is we’re all going to be waiting to see when his veep becomes POTUS and, as such, becomes America’s Putin.

Ron DeSantis

Trump is so degranged that I find myself vacillating widely as to who he will pick to to be his veep. The logical choice is DeSantis. But Pompeo WAS really loyal to Trump in during the slow moving coup of late 2020, early 2021. But this is Trump we’re talking about, so it could be Gen. Mike Flynn that Trump picks.

Talk about a holy shit.

But one thing is for sure — 2023 – 2025 is going to be fucking lit. Chaos will reign. Impeachments will happen repeatedly. There may be a Certification Crisis. There may be a civil war. Who knows. All I do know is a lot of America’s macro problems are going to be worked out one way or another starting in January 2023.

Good luck.

Ivanka & Charred Wreckage That Is The State Department

I hate to break it to you, guys, but I’m afraid Trump is prepping Ivanka Trump to be Secretary of State in this second term. That’s the reason why she keeps running around the globe for no apparent reason. That’s the fucked up rationale MAGA will use to cram her nomination through the Senate. “But she knows everyone in the world!”

Now, it’s my impression that State is ruined for the foreseeable future. Trump’s administration has done everything in its power to destroy Foggy Bottom. What’s worse, it’s not like the partisan dipshits Trump put in place there are going anywhere should we ever get another Democratic administration. They’re going to hunker down and do everything in their power to make life for a president they don’t like hell.

So, Ivanka will be at State in Trump’s second term. I’m little nervous that it will be her, not Don Jr. who runs for POTUS in 2024. It would be just like MAGA to do everything in their power to make sure Ivanka is the first woman president so she can be so bad that we never have another female president.

I feel so bad for State. They deserve so much better.
