Holy shit!!! Today's the day. The day I never expected to see...the installation of Donald J Trump as the leader of the free world. Even though I'm an atheist, I'm going to say it: God help us.
I guess I shouldn't be surprised by all this, after all the Republicans ran a clown car full of unworthy candidates for president. Actually there was one sane guy running, Governor Kasich of Ohio but he was far too sane and and still an establishment insider...definitely too intelligent to appeal to the voters. The Democratic establishment ran the far more qualified person but so much shit has been written about her that the electorate preferred a lying con man to a woman who would dare to break the ultimate glass ceiling. People are a lot crazier now than they were during the Bush years. A lot of nasty "Mo Fo's" out there now that are loaded with hate and are going to exploit that hate for all they can until they're stopped. By whom? No clue. It appears that American society is on the verge of civil unrest and who the hell knows how the next few years will turn out. I have serious doubts that I'm going to affected by the new administration (Barack never called me to thank me for my vote or ask my opinion of anything). Change takes time and at my age, by the time anything significant changes come about I suspect my ashes will be dust in the wind. Am I going to watch the festivities on television today? Shit no, I've got a bottle Gentleman Jack and some damn fine weed to smoke. No, I think I'll watch one of my favorite DVDs: Apocalypse Now.
