The Skeeter Daddle Diaries

Well, we are past the virtual conventions. Actually, considering Trump gave his nomination acceptance speech from the White House and his Sec. of State offered his endorsement while on a state sponsored trip to the Middle East, we are past conventions period. Laws too. So now we can go down the home stretch in what will no doubt be the ugliest of ugly elections in our history. Huugely ugly.

And in case the circus wouldn’t have three or more rings under the Big Top, we have police killings, Black Lives Matter protests, antifa rioting, white supremacists offering vigilante assistance, Post Office shenanigans, the continuing Covid plague, the whole shebang plowing fertile ground toward the November election which will no doubt take a few days to count all the late mail-in ballots. After that all hell breaks loose, count on that and take it to the bank.

Nobody is going to feel unsullied after a couple of months of mudslinging lies and horrorshow scare tactics. If this thing is close, batten down the hatches, a Cat 5 storm will flood the country until after Christmas into a bleak New Year. I’m like you, I’m really forward to what’s coming. America is going to be great. Again. What I think Mr. T meant, but misread his teleprompter, was America is going to be greater. You might even get tired of so much greatness. Our suburbs are going to be safe for white women. Again. Our employment numbers are going to be the best in history. Again. Not like they are now. Like they were back when America was great the first time. Or was that the second? The stock market is going to keep going through the roof so if you have a job you might consider calling your broker. Or get one. Use that payroll tax break. By the time you have to pay it back your stocks should double. That’s how the Big Boyz do it and now you can too. In the Greater America.

In the second term, if Mr. T wins, racism will be a thing of the past. Although in this term it doesn’t exist. Biden wants to defund the cops even though he says he doesn’t want to defund the cops. There goes the cities. And the suburbs will be sure to follow, all those looters and rioters and rapists, worse than the immigrants, wanting equal rights when we all know they have equal rights already in the pretty great America but nothing like the greatness that’s coming to this land of the free.

My friends are worried this guy will get a second term. My friends obviously don’t want a greater America. They think the election will be rigged or that the guy won’t leave the White House if he loses. Some of them think he might start a war with North Korea or who knows who, wag the dog, declare a national emergency, make Ivanka queen, send in the troops to restore Law and Order, ban MSNBC and the NY Times and lock up Bezos for distorting the truth in the Washington Post. Me. What, me worry? I’ve already seen what a great America looks like. I’ve already learned what kind of fellow citizens I have in this already great country. I know for a fact that we get the Leaders we deserve. Me worried? No, I’m scared to death….
