Biden? Trump? The Heck With It – A Post-Debate Follow-Up

I watched the debate last night – or at least as much of it as I could until I had to turn it off.  Unfortunately, I missed the golf handicap segment.  Which is amazing.  We had the world, including people like Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping, and Kim Jong Un, i.e., people who have nuclear weapons, watching, and the two candidates for our top job are arguing about their golf handicap?

Donald Trump was his normal fact-free self.  Nothing new.  As for Joe Biden, I’m only surprised by how many people were surprised.  I don’t know what the Democrats are going to do vis-à-vis November.  But, more importantly, I don’t know what the United States is going to do until January.  Who is making the decisions in the White House?  Who is Joe Biden’s Edith Bolling Galt Wilson?

Biden? Trump? The Heck With It.

Readers of this blog may have noticed (they have even been grateful) that I have not been posting as much lately.  After getting back from our break and seeing that things are pretty much the same as they were before we left (which was to be expected), I can see why: Biden v. Trump, again.  Progressives v. right-wing populists constantly. 

When George W. Bush was president and while Barack Obama was president, I posted a lot because there were things I wanted to say.  That even continued, for a while, under Doanld Trump.  But then I got tired complaining about Trump, especially when the other side didn’t seem any better. 

When Joe Biden came in, I posted things, but the number of them has dropped.  He’s been bad, his policies have been bad, but so many on the other side seem bad, too.
