WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Responding to “a situation of utmost urgency,” President Biden released the nation’s Strategic Alcohol Reserve just hours before Election Night. Immediately following the announcement, the price of vodka dipped below three dollars a gallon and Biden’s approval rating surged to 94 percent. But even as Americans cheered, experts warned that excessive liquor consumption could cause severe mental impairment akin to that exhibited by undecided voters. Statistics show that the nation’s alcohol supply has been under acute pressure since November of 2016.
The Donald gets to vote today only because Florida has a law that allows convicted, but not incarcerated persons to vote. He would have to be incarcerated in New York, not Florida.
I am now convinced that a very high percentage of humans can be convinced to do anything, say anything , believe anything , no matter the facts of ANY situation. Something is seriously wrong concerning much of humanity on this little globe hurtling through space. Even the so-called innocent are going to pay "the price ", sooner or later, IMO. Vitiation trumps amelioration every time.
Megyn Kelly Was One of Donald Trump’s ‘Nasty’ Women in 2016. Now She’s Endorsing Him for President excerpt: "One day before Election Day, Megyn Kelly helped Donald Trump deliver his “closing message” to voters, capping off her endorsement of the former president. A Donald Trump endorsement from a former Fox News host shouldn’t be surprising, until you remember Trump and Kelly’s relationship the first time he ran for president. In 2016, Kelly was one of the few Republicans willing to call out Trump for his misogynistic remarks. In return, Trump described her as a “nasty” woman, just like his opponent Hillary Clinton. While moderating the GOP primary debate in 2015, Kelly asked Trump outright to address his history of using derogatory terms to describe women. “You’ve called women you don’t like ‘fat pigs,’ ‘dogs,’ ‘slobs,’ and ‘disgusting animals,’” she said. Afterward, Trump told Don Lemon on CNN, “You could see there was blood coming out of [Kelly’s] eyes. Blood coming out of her wherever.”"
Operation backfire, also known as shooting yourself in your own foot. If Trump does win, you'll have yourself to thank. Karma!
