OK, there’s a diary, and I participated in that diary. We’re all pointing and laughing at the Republicans. Yes, it’s OK to have a little schadenfreude. BUT...
Hold the celebration. You are making the assumption that we’ve already won in November.
That is a BAD assumption to make.
You have to understand something. We live in a nation where half the population are morons who vote against their own best interests, and the other half is difficult to motivate to get to a damned ballot box.
We pointed and laughed at Ronald Reagan. He won.
We pointed and laughed at George W. Bush. He won. Okay, with an asterisk, but he still got to shit on our country for eight fucking years.
And if we just point and laugh at Donald Trump and his mobs of mouthbreathers, we could be left wondering on November 9th how the fuck we lost to those bozos.
Trump has words. He has all the right words. And he has only one policy on his platform: “Build a wall”. We laugh, but Trump knows his audience, and he knows them well enough to do his Satanic Sesame Street routine all the way to the Republican Presidential nomination.
Van Jones is right. We have to be fighting, not laughing.
