Mate, that video insert of Trump talking crap in your earlier post auto-plays when you open the blog page, so I had that audio running over Clapton for several seconds there before I realised (Sunday morning not completely awake sorry). Anyway it was unholy. Saw Clapton twice. Once in Australia when I was still a teen and then once at the Budokan in Tokyo. Something to remember.
I am sorry to say that a Clapton concert I saw in the mid-1970's stands in my mind as probably the worst performance I ever saw. From the moment Eric came on stage, it was clear that he was so loaded with Heroin that he barely knew where he was. He could barely make it through 12 bars of one of his solos, and shamefully had hired another guitar player who stood in the semi-background, who finished his leads. At one point, a string broke on his guitar, and it confused him so badly that he just stood there staring off into space until a guitar tech came out and changed his guitar while he stood there doing nothing, and then resumed lamely trying to finish the song.
I guess he finally got off junk and recovered, but I will never forget that.
The woman in this picture, equipped with the weapons and ammunition shown, was found outside a National guard base. She is apparently a big Glenn Beck fan, and believed that the base was a FEMA concentration camp. Think she's the only one out there? You just know this sort of thing is not going to end well.
How can you look like a decrepit old geezer and an out of control two year old at the same time? I thought it might be nice to look in on wingnut world to see how they are taking yesterday's $83 million dollar Trump legal loss. You kind of know that they will decide it shouldn't affect their opinion of him in any way, but it might be helpful to see just how the Republican party has trained them to reject any fact they don't like. Not that surprisingly, a lot of the usual wingnut suspects didn't touch this loss at all, preferring to just ignore anything that interferes with their hateful daydreams, but here are a few excerpts from an article at Gateway Pundit, along with a sample of the hundreds of comments it received. Enjoy. Or not. "Trump attorney Alina Habba WENT OFF after the crooked New York City court slapped President Trump with an $83 million judgment for speaking out against the disgusting lies of a crazed woman who said he lured her into a Bergdorf Go
And nobody hears it, is it really running for President at all? First of all, a note about my absence lately: My wife got me to sign up for an account at Threads, which is sort of like X without the assholes. I've spent a little time establishing myself there, and I have to say, I do like the relatively immediate exchange of views, but I don't mean to give up my blog- there are still so many things that can't be dealt with in a couple hundred words, so, perhaps to your dismay, I am back. So, what motivated the above question is the fact that the Sunday New York Times today had seven articles about Trump, and absolutely zero about Kamala Harris. The Republicans have a problem with Harris, in that virtually everyone who sees her likes her and immediately understands how qualified she is to be President. They have tried mightily the last month to find some way to smear her, but have been spectacularly unsuccessful- the tactics of character assassination that worked so we
