Never-Trumpers

The Birkenstock crowd fill their bumpers

With twisted rants as never-Trumpers

They claim him to be a hifalutin

Secret fan of Russia's Putin

They wear "pussy" hats to show resistance

To any who might support his existence

They protest the Wall and the travel ban

And claim his love for the Klu Klux Klan

They stay up nights concocting zingers

And give his limo their middle fingers

They mock and sneer and call him crazy

But somehow never deem him lazy

They fear his thumb on the nuclear button

And diss him as a McDonald's glutton

They want his head like John the Baptist

As punishment for being neo-fascist

But most of all these liberal Seraphim

Wish Robert Mueller would castrate him ...

Binary World

There are many things in life that are of a binary nature. Generally one either loves cilantro or one hates it. You either detest the thought of mayonnaise or you savor it. You can't get enough of McDonald's breakfast or you would need to be starving to death to entertain the thought of its Sausage McMuffin. And, of course, politics is often a binary choice. Watching CSPAN this morning exemplified this. Just about everyone calling in on the "independent line" was either a rabid liberal or a conservative. The "golden middle" has become a shrinking compromise.

And, unfortunately, the more radical the support or anathema there is toward an issue, the likelier it is adorated or deep-sixed -- respect for the American flag, women's "reproductive rights," smoking (except doobies), Confederate hero's statues, etc. George Soros and other bubble-headed billionaires believe that their way is "the way" ... and are willing to bribe others generously to support it ... witness Tom Steyer's recent vicious and unprecedented anti-Trump TV commercial ... see: Real Clear Politics Video.

I love cilantro ... and pray to Obama nightly that the haters don't outlaw this pleasure of mine and many other's.

What Now?

About two weeks ago I offered here some tongue-in-the-cheek suggestions as to how to adjust to a Trump victory. Surprisingly, since this event actually did occur last night, I think I might reprise these suggestions here:

- Open a relo service to Canada and New Zealand 

- Go into the construction business along our southern border

- Make sure your dead uncle's vote was counted

- Cancel your subscription to the New York Times

- Buy coal company stocks

- Abandon writing a book on the Bush family 

- Buy deep-discounted Russian bonds

- Swear to your friends you voted for her

- Open a McDonald's franchise near the White House

- Get a job

- Rescind your pledge to contribute to the Clinton Foundation 

- Short Goldman Sachs stock

- Buy a gas guzzler

To this list I might also now add the following events:

- All the printers at the Clinton Foundation will run out of paper due to the slews of resumes being produced there

- A number of media members will change their professions

- A number of polling organizations will start selling Slurpees

- Huma Abedin will convert to Buddhism

- Hellary Clinton will start raising money for her Almost-Presidential Library

- FBI Director James Comey and Anthony Weiner will be put on suicide watches as notes to those ends have already been discovered

What if Trump Wins?

On the off chance that The Donald wins on November 8th, here are some suggestions:

- Open a relo service to Canada and New Zealand

- Go into the construction business along our southern border

- Make sure your dead uncle's vote was counted

- Cancel your subscription to the New York Times

- Buy coal company stocks

- Abandon writing a book on the Bush family

- Buy deep-discounted Russian bonds

- Swear to your friends you voted for her

- Open a McDonald's franchise near the White House

- Get a job

- Rescind your pledge to contribute to the Clinton Foundation

- Short Goldman Sachs stock

- Buy a gas guzzler

Inured

Do you sense that we are growing accustomed to terrorist strikes? I do. Sunday, in Ansbach, Germany a suicide bomber from Syria blew himself up injuring 12 ... 3 critically ... and near Stuttgart, Germany, a pregnant woman was hacked to death by a machete wielding Syrian refugee and two others were wounded. The rest of the world has taken little note of these events ... see: Express Article and Yahoo New Story. German police are reluctant to say that these were terrorism ... but, then again, what were they? Pyromania and Misogyny? And this came just two days after an 18-year old Iranian immigrant killed nine youngsters at a McDonald's in Munich, Germany ... all the while yelling Allahu Akbar! I don't think this translates into, "I didn't get special sauce on my Big Mac!" Do you? And this all then echos the July 18 ax attack by a 17-year old Afghan/Pakistani immigrant severely injuring five people on a train near Nuremberg, Germany. Was he just practicing for his Boy Scout Trail Blazing merit badge? I don't think so. (These dire consequences cannot reflect well on German Chancellor Angela Merkel's policy of welcoming hoards of Muslim immigrants.)

And let's not forget Nice, France ... and that Muslim ice cream truck driver ...

As the pace of these attacks by those from the "Religion of Peace" quickens, it seems that much of the world is becoming inured to these brutalities and, because of some liberal-mind malfunction, is very reluctant to call them wannabe Muslim terrorism or motivated by ISIS. I find this bazaare and predictably quite dangerous.

Horsing Around

Burger King has egg on its face.  One of its meat suppliers in England and Ireland has been found to have included horse meat in its hamburger mix … see: USA Today Story.   I strongly suspect that this is just the tip of the iceberg lettuce in the fast food industry … with more revelations to come.  There is, after all, intense pressure to keep costs down … and what better way …?

How many readers remember that, in the 1960’s, McDonald's was accused of using kangaroo meat in its hamburgers?  I haven’t been able to validate this on Google, but it seems a very clear memory to me.  This is one of the problems with our information age ….  vast rivers of newer revelations swamp the older data to the point that it virtually disappears.  Can anyone verify this 50-year-old kangaroo-meat memory of mine?
