Observing from a safe distance, I hope, that which I wish to. It hurts to admit, but so far control over what I wish to is also out of reach.

Everything is . Of course, he's never done anything wrong, and the nearly 100 against him are just evidence of what a poor, persecuted victim he is. It's all just one obscenely enormous involving thousands of public servants led by (from his basement coma suite). This is the abject bullshit is hoping you believe, which is why he repeats it everytime a camera is nearby. Persuasion through repetition.

I try to bear in mind how we, as an electorate, will get what we deserve. This buoys my spirits, because who can be truly upset in the face of fairness and justice. If we're stupid enough, as a society, to elect Herr Rottencrotch, we're stupid enough to suffer for it.

Analysis: recent poll on voter intentions

About half of all voters would replace both candidates on the ballot.

62% of Biden-supporting voters would replace Biden.

Voters have little confidence in either Trump or Biden, including re fitness for office, personal ethics & respect for democratic values.

Pew research shows 49% of registered voters favor Trump, while 48% support Biden.

This trial hasn't even started yet, not one witness. Yet...

I'm getting Doomers galore in my feed.

A Trumpy helped convict him in an earlier trial.

The prosecutors are vetting the jurors carefully.

I am not Dooming. Not yet.

Can we wait for the trial to be in full swing before predicting the worst possible outcome? Or do people thrive on constant pessimism? I just don't.

Thanks so much for listening. Let's try to be hopeful.

In defense of the doomers, most have been smelling this particular shade of orange sh!t for about a decade now. A lot of them probably have grown dismissive of any notion that smell will ever abate. Don't look for optimism on death row.

@GottaLaff

Is not asking folks to be hopeful at least kinda like asking them to be optimistic? I agree that chicken littling before things get started in this case is unwise, unproductive, and unhealthy, but I understand how folks can jump to defeatism after having suffered what so many would term... "defeats." Will avoid using synonyms going forward.

@GottaLaff

"Let's try to be hopeful" Is pretty close to "let's be optimistic." I'm just saying optimism is in short supply. I've read much of what you posted today (and for the past several). I enjoy your feed. Not sure where/why we're at odds on this.

Trump reminds me of the snakes our dog routinely “catches and fetches” from our fields. She arrives, snakehead in mouth, wagging her tail in time with the snake's frantic thrashing. As the snake slows, so does her tail, until both are still. Disinterested, she drops the neutralized reptile. The kids rock-paper-scissors to see who gets to drape it over the fence for the hawk that patrols our farm. The bird swoops then darts into the nearby woods to our collective relief. Good doggy.
