So this post kinda crystallizes why Trump is not only the essence of fendy but why I, and others like me, will give precisely zero fucks when Trump, or someone like him, has his hands firmly on the levers of power. Our culture is already far down the road of criminalizing dissent and the global warmening example here isn’t even the most egregious. Almost 20 years ago, Bill Clinton survived impeachment for perjury, witness tampering and obstruction of justice by adopting a novel definition of the word ‘is’. Conversely, Scooter Libby was convicted of perjury for misremembering who he spoke with on the subject of Valerie Plame. When Martha Stewart wondered what was up with the Imclone thing that was egrounds for prosecution and conviction. OTOH, although MF Global illegally transferred client funds to Europe to purchase sovereign debt, John Corzine was never indicted; it was… complicated. More recently, it turns out that an employee using personal email for campaign purposes during work time is grounds for prosecution and conviction of their supervisor in Wisconsin (did the IRS illegally collude with WI prosecutors to harass said supervisor and other Walker supporters? Bonus fendy!) but actively working a sitting politician’s campaign on gov’t time in Pennsylvania… not so much.

So if Trump does get elected I’ll be sure to have plenty of popcorn just to see what he does with these weaponized bureaucracies that we seem to have these days. Much like the CIA whining about how the Lightworker never listens to them and has screwed everything up or the outrage of the EUnuchs that we have an administration that would rather spout the same sort of BS that they do rather than actually taking action, these people all richly deserve each other and if I can’t precisely escape their influence I can at least point and laugh as they start to tear each other apart. Shame the country has to go with them, but that horse left the barn back in Lincoln’s day.
