“It’s going to be messy… but we’ve got to get back to Law & Order”

I overheard an 70-year old lady saying this to her friend this morning at the local YMCA. She was a trumper trying to convince her friend that what’s happening is all for the best.

I just wondered, “Is she taking crazy pills?”

Her point of view is so far removed from reality that it just makes the head spin.

Over the last 4 years:

  • Murder and violent crime rates are down
  • US inflation rates are better than the rest of the world
  • Amazing stock market gains
  • Record low unemployment rates
  • And we’ve been able to sleep at night!

But none of that matters.

For someone, who I assume watches Fox news all the time, everywhere you look it’s all bad, bad, bad.

So I just wanted to ask her – if more people die, is she going to own that? That’s what she voted for, after all. She said that things getting “messy” was an acceptable means to an end, so is she going to take responsibility for that? Was she really telling her friend she wants some people to die so things will get better, in her opinion?

If she really believes that… if she really thinks that’s the only way forward, I hope she gets a “T” tattoo so she can own up to a little regret in her heart while the families are burying their dead.

But I know she won’t. Playing the victim card every time you want to blame others and then playing the ‘It’s not my fault’ card when your side is in the wrong is easy when you’re ok with lying.

Hey lady, remember the 1 million Covid deaths that happened because your dearest leader was in charge and did nothing?

That’s the kind of mess she just voted for.
