Not to distract from natter about the walkout--which, I'm so proud of I just can't express it--but I've been thinking and here's where I need to express what I've been thinking about.
I've been remembering the inauguration, the solemn, somber, and somewhat sorrowful transfer of authority, and the gleeful celebration of having grabbed the brass ring out of the hands of thoughtful and deliberate public servants. And here's the thing.
If by some miracle, we manage to actually *have* elections in 2020, and gerrymandering hasn't managed to engineer liberal Democrats out of their votes, and we motivate Voters Who Think to get to the polls and actually vote 45 out of office?
I don't want a peaceful, pomp and circumstance transfer of power on inauguration day. I want a perp walk. Can we do that? Who's with me?
That would be so sweet, Beverly.
Aha, I found some local coverage that walkouts were planned, but not anything yet about the actual walkouts.
I want a perp walk. Can we do that? Who's with me?
I'm onboard. Although, if we flip Congress in November, I'm hoping for a perp walk much sooner than 2020.
I'm all for plentiful preliminary perp walks. You betcha. But I just want to see the cheetoh in a jumpsuit to match his hairdo, his tiny hands in shiny chrome cuffs, his jowls flapping as he's escorted by two large uniformed LEOs while his Secret Service contingent stands by, smiling and waving, out of the WH past the remainder of staff and crew he hasn't managed to drive off.
Or really, I'd be happy with a verbal account, no cameras, a denial of his need for the limelight as he's ushered quietly into an existence of anonymity and public erasure.
I've always striven to rise above vindictiveness and revenge. I'm not going to achieve that this time.
Yay, someone noticed my pi shirt, and that made him realize it was 3/14. I have served a purpose today.
I just saw the reports of the Boston kids coming to school on the snow day to protest. So proud of them.
The idea of a "perp walk" just reminds me too much of all the Hillary-haters out there who want her to be doing the same thing/photoshop her in a jumpsuit/chant "lock her up" etc. :(
I'd be happy if we just didn't have him and the accompanying madness anymore--I don't want impeachment hearings, I don't want headlines, I just want it over....
Perp walk gives too much attention to his narcissistic ass. Worse for him and better for the rest of us if he just disappears. Never gets his face on TV again, quietly rots in prison forever.
waves little MA pompoms
Did you know that ALL of MA's congressional delegation gets 0s from the NRA?
