Democracy survives another round, but we don’t know about Apesh*t’s mind.
The sense of relief we all felt overnight Tuesday into Wednesday has for me settled into feeling like the whole thing was anticlimactic, like a movie that was just OK. It was fine! The world wasn't going to end in any event, but there is even a little bit of satisfaction.
Yes, the continued iron rule of a seriously incompetent GOP regime in Texas is a real drag, but even that set of disappointments, from Beto on down, is at least clarifying.They keep telling us who they are, we should believe them and focus on something else. Like, focus on what we're good at! City councils, school boards, county offices, water and soil districts, what have you. The Texas Republicans do not dare redistrict all the veteran Dems out of the Lege because they would lose so much valuable expertise; this is where we build that expertise. This is also where we can most effectively take over where state government is derelict. The last session showed us that there is no meat to GOP messaging, so just ignore them and see what happens.
Likewise down the ballot in the three Council races going to run-off. Each pits a man against a Latina. So this is already awhich is good for candidates to have when they can't raise as much money as better-connected opponents. Voters in these districts had more choices than the de facto binary for mayor , and I'm looking forward to talking with the remaining contenders more than we had a chance to in the very large endorsement meetings.
I have reached the point that I no longer care what happens to our president once-removed. I have a hard time believing any legal consequences are headed his way . I just want him to be powerless, which he basically is, and the dumber he looks the more so he becomes. If Trump were not diseased, damaged, and bent, he could play the changes of white Christian nationalism more effectively and not step on his own d*ck so often.
