126 days left until the election (#4168)

     Today marks 18 weeks left until the election. I keep telling myself these little molestones on the way to the voting booth are important to note because we are winding down to the most important day in the lives of way too many of us. For so long it was all about how we were going to be destroyed by trump starting from his first day. That long time ago seems like an eternity now and that is okay because those of us who are still here are still here. 126 days is a drop in the bucket compared to the well over a thousand days we have already endured. Endured is the right adjective because I am so damn weary from it but nonetheless undeterred.
     Yesterday we found out that trump was briefed orally by walrus bolton way back in March of 2019 about the russian assassination scheme aimed at killing American and coalition troops. So his defense told by his press secretary yesterday that he wasn't briefed in February of 2020 has all the earmarks of a loousy attempt to lie. He knew and decided that doing nothing was in his best interests.  So his coverup is now another despicable act however not as bad as his letting American troops die without trying to protect them. this is no shock to me becasue I have known all along that trump is a selfish bottom feeder who would sacrifice anyone and anything if it gave him a personal advantage.
     We should see some movement today from the courts on his taxes but I don't hold out much hope that we will get the decision we want. Yet Chief Justice Roberts may still end up on a 5-4 decision siding with liberals and rule that trump must turn over his tax returns. Becuase Roberts, although conservative. is trying to salvage his legacy and surely he won't destroy his reputation for a traitorous conman like trump but then again he probably will. I will close now and go check out the decisions of the court and some vote totals that are due in Kentucky later today.
