      I don’t care if Tuesday’s fucking ugly

      and Wednesday’s worse

      Thursday, Friday, no remorse

      Monday we’ll all fall apart

      Tuesday, Wednesday, realize we all smell like farts

      Oh, Thursday doesn’t even start…

      It’s Friday, I’m in love still fucking glad I voted

        I don’t care if Monday’s filing cases without evidence to clog the courts

        Tuesday’s prematurely declaring victory and Wednesday accusing fraud because vote count went overnight due to unsupported and disproven gop challenges of voting machines

        Thursday, trucks with ski masked people pulling up to the Capitol with assault rifles

        It’s Friday, I’m in a camp for suspected Marxist socialist antifahs!

        Monday, barricades at politician’s homes can fall apart

        Tuesday, Wednesday, break my elderly neighbor’s hip when cops break the door down at the wrong home and tackle her for being a suspected “illegal”

        Oh, Thursday doesn’t even start because musk/trump dept of efficiency has outlawed clocks and calendars so there can be no more legal labor challenges of unpaid overtime, no weekends and no holiday pay

        It’s Friday, I’m in only the second week of trump’s second, never-ending term as America’s dictator clumsily toppling 250+ years of democracy


        You know you can do the right thing here. Go register, go vote. It’s fast, simple and painless. You know we have to tell ourselves the above could never happen here to feel safe, but you also know it’s closer to reality then ever before and you can do something, right now.

      Wait until all the bullshit ramps up by Saturday. I totally imagine escalating bullshit for several weeks if not more.

        Nothing will make this bullshit worth it. Not even a good president, and all Harris has going for her is that she’s not trump.

          “all Harris has going for her is that she’s not trump” is a whole fucking lot right now, bud.

          Another woman, a girl actually, who never saw her 20th birthday, was just murdered by Texas politicians and voters for having a miscarriage.

            It’s a good reason to vote for her, but it’s nothing special. Most people aren’t trump. Nixon wasn’t trump. I’d vote for Nixon over trump. That doesn’t mean he’d be a good president.

                Well, you see, someone can be a bad candidate and still be better than the worst candidate. Being better than trump doesn’t make her good. Most people are better than trump. You don’t get a cookie for that.
