another fortnight of propaganda...then the machinations begin

the numbers are looking grim for the trumpists...the cadre has started to distance itself...the cabinet is desperately changing rules as the window to do so begins to close...donny has floated the idea that he might leave the country ( one supppses to putinland to bunk with snowden ) which would be necessary if he doesn't want to land in a new york penitentiary and the signs are a majority has had enough of the jesse ventura mold of presidential behaviors...
the new york times spent sunday calling him a liar, cheat, dimwit, and thug...
and today in one breath they are saying he has one foot out of 1600...
and in the next that consevative judges and the ruskies are going to make decisions and hack voting machines in an efort to upend the poll numbers...well...i would not expect this to end in two weeks...a defeat at the polls isn't a guarantee near as i can see ( let us recall 2000's "hanging chads" and a second presidential election that was stoloen in florida...see rutherfraud b. hayes for details on the first ) of being denied office...the lawyers are staying up late these days looking for precedents and reading up on the sophists as their moment approaches...yes, there could be an anti-climax...it is possible that donny is giving up although his capacity for actually dealing with reality is suspect...they have a lot to lose here and while there may be a negative note sounding they are also desperate...and desperate people do weird things...we will see what happens in fifteen days.
