Despite everything people say about Donald Trump, I get this sinking feeling that he and maybe more so the players around him are always three or four moves ahead of the rest of us. They appear to have this uncanny ability to anticipate reactions and outcomes, and their bag of tricks appears bottomless.
It’s difficult to know if the choices of Miller and Jordan were reactive or planned. Either way, the Republicans are poised to do more battle or at least to stonewall and muddy the water and keep anything constructive from being accomplished. What’s sick about this is that they also appear to care very little about doing the work people elected them to do.
It’s been an unfunny joke from Day 1. Intentionally!! They want to make us poor and dumb and needy, and they are trying to position themselves to be the only ones we can turn to for sustenance. This is where they want to head. It is most certainly sick and hateful, and we can’t let it happen.
They are treating the Blue Wave as mere window dressing. In some ways, it’s just another bump in the road, because they are playing a longer game than most of us can envision.
