Often, pride goeth before the fall. Remember how smugly certain everyone was about Clinton in 2016?

I'm expecting that the two-party system will again win the election in 2020. The realist in me can read the tea-leaves, and sees that the binary polarization of politics in America, in terms of the conviction of the electorate, continues to increase.

At this point, I'll just be happy if the probable civil unrest next week doesn't have too major an impact on my daily commute, or result in my house or workplace burning down.

More classic cancel culture hysteria:

People are calling to boycott Home Depot after its co-founder said he was voting for Trump and encouraged others to do the same | Markets Insider


This is supposedly a Murrow award winning writer, no less:



Of course, it doesn't matter at all that:

"Bernie retired from The Home Depot about 20 years ago and does not speak on behalf of the company," a Home Depot spokesperson told Business Insider. "The Home Depot does not give money to presidential campaigns or endorse presidential candidates."

yes, well sometime around May after their three-month lockdown period after cases started going back up. That's why I circled the date of that article.

Here's what I know:
  1. Masks don't work -- but are getting sick from their disgusting usage habits.
  2. Lockdowns don't work for the long-term.
  3. Protests/Riots do not spread viruses.

Rule-Of-Thumb: If you find yourself having to board up your business after an election, you've probably been voting in Democrats.

Waiting for him to post about my God Emperor Trump group. I know he's busy, but it's important.
