    Trump has waged a war on irony! I hate it! Transport yourself back a few years and imagine...........

    THE DEATH OF IRONY
    In the beginning, you derived much pleasure from the ironic tweets. You'd smug-smile and think: "This guy is fucking idiot." Can no one else see this?!?

    The hundredth time it happened, you might be bemused, and maybe share with a friend. "How is this even possible?" you might ask. "Our president is such a dumbass." But the low-hanging fruit can be kind of disappointing. You don't even have to work for it; it's just there. You reach out grab it and what?

    By the trillionth time you are just letting the fruit drop to the ground and rot. It's overwhelming. It's gone from funny to not funny to terrifying. But it's hard to even muster the strength for outrage. You've exhausted the haha part of your brain. It's just a blank stare and a muttering to oneself these days... Your kids will never believe that irony was once entertaining and humorous....

    THE END

    I believe this is what will cause his failure in the upcoming elections. The country is just tired of having to baby-seat the president. People at times do not understand that too much of anything (even if it is a good thing, something I do not blame the Trump administration for - just to be clear) is still too much and people tire of it.

    I know the twitter in chief loves to call our next president "sleepy" - but frankly, as any parent that had to deal with the tantrums of a baby knows - sleepy is good.

    It was wild driving through Paducah, KY. Not Far from Nashville, TN for the record. Confederate flags and statues able to be seen from the interstate.

    The hilarious thing is the uproar over kneeling during anthems being the supposed disrespect towards the flag.

    That is more disrespectful than flying the confederate flag at a public statehouse? Don't be dissin the flag, my ass.

    Hey Wisie, peace man. I know you’re not dense in fact you are very knowledgeable.
    You are 100% correct in that if Floyd wasn’t murdered non of the riots would have taken place. I’m on board with major reform and shaking things up! I’ve always been one to look at how people are effected by major events. And I saw Floyd’s Brother and fam Plead for no violence and damage and I also agreed with them.
    It’s crazy that’s why Wife and I hooked up the cougar and headed East. Maryhill park in the Columbia Washington side.
    I’m sipping on a little Wild West bourbon Relaxing in the sun!
    Feelings aren’t right or wrong there just feelings!
