Too bad they can’t ask for their deposit back (though I suppose they got what they paid for in a way …).

Watching a goldam _TV show_ tonight and got mad all over again. I’d unsubscribed from all the Trump threads several weeks ago. A few days after that, I weaned myself off of going back to them ‘manually’ and checking for anything significant. But a habit built up over years, with so much emotion and tension invested in it, can’t be dropped overnight, apparently.

We still would have had COVID deaths, still likely in the hundreds of thousands. But we wouldn’t have nearly as many as we do if not for that one man, that one mentally-ill man. We can talk about his followers, his enablers, his sycophants, and all those for whom he proved to be a Very Useful Idiot. But without _him_, with almost _any_body in his place, we as a nation would have done much better fighting this pandemic. Among many, many other prices we’ve paid because of that man, we can arguably add hundreds of thousands of unnecessary deaths to the bill.

It is not healthy for me to want this, but I want that man to _suffer_. And suffer. And suffer. It isn’t humanly possible for that man to suffer as much as (I believe) he should; he’ll not suffer near as much as he should because of even one of those unnecessary deaths. My heart genuinely cries and my soul aches (okay, maybe I’m waxing poetical here) and I despair when I think that he will not be punished in any way, ever, at all. He will not suffer.

I’ll rephrase: I do not want him dead. I want him to live, and to suffer because of what he’s done, and I go a little crazy every day when I know that he will not suffer. _That’s_ how he’s pissed me off today, and that will be the reason he pisses me off every day for the rest of my life, unless I can find a way to turn it off.

Don’t be ridiculous. Had they politely knocked on a legislator’s office door, they would have been [arrested and dragged away](https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/georgia-park-cannon-arrested-capitol-voting-b1822852.html).

ThelmaLou heartily endorses every word of this rant. 👍🏽

And I think it IS healthy to want someone who has caused-- yes CAUSED-- so much suffering to suffer likewise. Would it be “healthy” to be blase about it? When there are still people dying every day due to the chain of events he did nothing to stop? THAT would be unhealthy. We must Never Forget.

There are so many levels and nuances to my disgust for trumpy’s way of handling (or not handling) the pandemic. They vie for Most Infuriating. Today at the top of the hit parade is his utter callous indifference to the suffering he caused. He did not bother to become informed or aware. He looked away while stuffing his tiny fingers into his ears.

I don’t think he will continue to piss you (and me) off every day for the rest of our lives. I think the fury and rage at the current level will naturally decay due to entropy and other stuff demanding our attention. But Never Forget completely.

On his last day in office, Individual 1 imposed sanctions on the Venezuelan oil industry and international corporations who work with them. Caught up in all that is an Italian guy who owns a pizza place who discovered his bank accounts frozen because he has the same name as a person who does business with Venezuelan oil.

By “rigged” I take it he means “voted in”. And by “destroy our Country CAPITAL C” I suppose what he intended to say, were he not an imbicile, was “preserve our democracy”. Yup, it takes a special kind of fucking stupid to be a hero to Republicans, and by golly, that boy’s got it.

Might be tricky for him, as Coca-Cola’s market cap is $228 billion. Real billionaires like Jeff Bezos or Elon Musk could by Coca-Cola, but fake billionaires like Donald Trump couldn’t even get a seat on the board of directors.
