What Will I Do If Trump Disappears?

Yesterday afternoon I woke up from a brief nap feeling about as unsettled and worried as I could be. Did I have Covid symptoms? No. Did I receive a phone call telling me that one of my grandchildren was seriously ill? No. Did the IRS send me a letter saying that I owed the government $40,000 in back taxes, interest, and penalties? No.

What happened is that just before I fell asleep, I read a brief story about a speech that senile Joe delivered at a kick-off rally at a high school in Rockville, MD where he stood up in front of a large crowd and basically said the GOP was now the ‘MAGA-Republican’ party. At a back-yard private fundraiser which raked in a million dollars prior to his speech, Biden told his donors that MAGA represented a ‘semi-fascist’ ideology that threatened America and needed to be defeated and thrown away.

Why did Joe’s rant bother me? Because now the November vote is being defined as a context between Socialism/Communism versus MAGA/Fascism — and what if the Democrats win? What if the Democrats pull off a mid-term result which nobody believed was possible one month ago but all of a sudden, things seem to have changed?

Don’t believe me? Both YouGov and Politico have the Democrats up by 5 in generic Congressional polls.
