Paging Jerk Biden

Democrats need their own bully to oust one.

I hear President-Elect Biden wants to heal the rift in our nation.

What a lovely thought. I do wish he would shut up about it. It isn’t helping him, or us.

At the moment, healing our nation is a pipe dream. I am not proposing that it won’t ever be possible to work together. I am pointing out that Americans need to be willing to heal in order to do so.

As anyone with a family knows, there is no rift-healing when one of the parties prefers to cling to resentment. If there is a single defining characteristic of a Trump voter, it is clinging to resentment.

When one considers how resentful Donald Trump is personally, he and the GOP voter are truly a match made in bitter heaven.

It’s not just the resentment of the right, though. Over here where I stand, in the Land of the Libtard, we aren’t too keen on letting Trump’s crimes go unpunished.

Although it’s a noble idea to mend fences, the Republican party is supporting a man in office who is trying to overturn over 200 years of democracy. Why on earth would we want to work out our differences with people who would sell out this nation over something as puny as their careers?
