A betting man.

Over my morning coffee, I was treated to a wonderful breakdown by Ali Davis at the Wonkette sub-stack site of the fitness of our Toddler in Chief, the melting SCROTUS administration and what comes next after he's cast off (in any form).  

  JD Vance sits in a white chair on the CPAC stage. He is wearing a light blue tie that waterfalls down over his crotch, and skinny-leg suit pants. Sitting down has made the pantlegs hike up o 

A worthy read, it does a superb summary of the strengths, weaknesses and ineptitude of the administrations cabinet members, and their chances of succession once the inevitable occurs... soon.  

I do concur with Davis, I believe that Stephen Miller is going to gun for a high-control spot, if not ascension into the role of POTUS, that Constitution thing be damned. 

"Stephen Miller, who has (Allegedly!) already been doing the job of the President as well as the jobs of a few Cabinet secretaries, is absolutely going to make a move. Laws or no laws, I don’t see him prying his gnarled little claws one-by-one from the reins of power, even if he were physically capable of doing such a thing."

Personally, I suspect that with Trump gone, the GOP will try and come back to some sense of civility, because they are (hopefully) learning that servitude to an Evil Overlord is not playing well to the masses, no matter HOW the maps get gerrymandered. 

Davis has a Part II to this outline that offers additional focus on Vance. Everything in these outlines really jibes with the piece-parts that I've read over the past months.  Feels like I am reading a Cliff Notes version of all that; broken down, digestible.  

The always interesting Keith Olbermann posits this morning about "Why do they keep giving Trump cognitive tests?"


So much press... so much discussion... I can only hope the end to this nightmare is coming soon. 

Onward,

Rade

Look to Russian history for a warning about authoritarian coup succession. After Lenin came Stalin.

But I can't think of Stalin without thinking about the marvelous movie, "The Death of Stalin"...

I don't I think Cankles is getting cognitive tests. He keeps rambling on about the one and only one he's gotten. I doubt they do it --- they know his brain is mush.

I don't see the Republican party ever coming back. They are just getting more and more crazy and lunatic acting. Power hunrgy bitch serving bastards. The next few in line are even worst......... At this point it like trying to get rid of the Kardashians.
