As the 2020 Presidential campaign cycle rumbles to life, let’s consider this sage advice from Robby Mook – famous to many as the guy who ran a $1.5 billion Presidential campaign into the ground:

Beware: Russian operatives will try to divide Democrats again in the 2020 primary, making activists unwitting accomplices.

2020 resolution: think before you like or share. It might be foreign propaganda, not “news”.

…and there you have it – a big, hot sloppy load of Cold War drama queen queefage. Cripes, did he compose this himself, or was it an intern? It’s as if he was trying to channel Stan Lee or something. The only thing missing is “evildoers”, but Junior Bush pretty much used that one up.

So, the next time some devious stranger tries to attack Beto O’Rourke by bringing up his piss-awful voting record, remember: they might be Russian. And if you pause to consider Beto’s entirely non-progressive voting record instead of blindly buying into the hype, then you might be a Russian, too. Mwwoooooaaahhh ha ha ha ha ha haaaahhhhh. Now, ve are takink care of Moose and Squirrel.

Needless to say, yesterday’s conviction of former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort for tax and bank fraud made for what Liberals call “a juicy news day”.

No doubt everybody in Flint, Yemen and all of Jeff Bezos’ employees who are living in their cars are absolutely thrilled to pieces over this news.

So, this makes it official: the Democratic Party doesn’t care. They aren’t running in the midterms on the issues of skyrocketing college tuition, income disparity, police terrorism and murder, or any other issues directly affecting anyone remaing who bothers to vote — they think they’re going to surf that “Blue Wave” into a majority on the Hill by ramping up the krazy on their empty, hollow conspiracy theories and bargain-basement McCarthyism.

Those of you from outside the US looking in on the state of politics and media discourse here might guess that you were watching a community theatre production of an Ionesco play, and you would be absolutely right. The worst of it, though, is that those of us living here are all pretty much trapped in the play whether we like it or not.

Well, the latest news from the “Blue Wave” midterm election scene actually isn’t looking that good for the Democrats. Despite a Reuters poll showing a 9% drop in Milennials’ support for the Democrats and – on top of that – the Chump Schumer DACA sellout, the Doug Jones disaster, their support for a massive war budget and the bombing of Syria, their continued support for Saudi brutality in Yemen and Israeli barbarity in Gaza, the collapse of the Russiagate freakshow and the whole Joy Reid hot mess, the Democrats are still acting all cocky and talking smack about a “Blue Wave” this November that will supposedly flood the House of Representatives with new and better Democrats.

Uh huh. I’ll go heat up the Jiffy-Pop.
