I said it last night when it was over - we have a government so big no one even knows what it does anymore. It’s certainly not there to protect the people, the culture, the borders or the cats. The government is so large it’s like a bad set of yoga pants at Walmart- what’s underneath is technically covered up but it leaves nothing to the imagination. The empire is in the last stages of its diabetic death.
Thought for a moment you were being sexist… nevertheless, our 35T was a glaring omission. Are we incapable of being free, governing ourselves, our can the virtuous among us recover American from this death spiral?
I was thinking it's like an MMA fighter passionately lecturing us on astrophysics, versus a lead salesman arguing that gravity goes up. And the lead salesman is entry level, repeating talking points and making practiced facial expressions.

the state won, we lost, and everything said by either Mr Douche or Mrs Turd is just noise
That's definitely how the smart money is betting. But I am a sucker for the long-shot. I'll never quit fighting.
Nor will I

LOL. That is delightful. That's why I love your stuff, Bernie!
I didn't watch the low-IQ, low-ethics debate.
Your list of markers is a very good framing. And on a light-hearted note, I especially like that they number a Spinal-Tap-ish 11 :-)
Lol. I didn’t even notice that. “Our demise goes to 11!”
Spinal Tap is always front-of-mind for me when the number 11 is discussed. I've explicitly done it in my own writing: https://goodneighborbadcitizen.substack.com/p/spinal-tap-edition-this-blog-goes
