I Didn't Say It ...

Hillary Clinton, political icon, on how LameDonaldDuck has changed since she ran against him in 2016:

"Where is he now? Look, I think that he's lost the plot. You know, back in 2016—10 years ago, think about that—he had a theory of the case, he knew how he wanted to present himself, he had people around him who had at least some ability to rein him in or to say no to him. He's totally unfettered and unhinged now. And for him to go to the Reflecting Pool, one of the great failures of his efforts to redo Washington, and stand there as though it's a huge success and go on and on about all of his projects ripping up Washington, destroying the East Wing, building an arch that will interfere with air traffic control navigation in and out of Washington, I mean, you can't make this up. He is so focused on himself. You know that old poem, 'Ozymandias,' he wants to build tributes to himself, in the image of himself. I mean, he’s truly lost the plot of being president for the American people, of winning a midterm election that would be better than what I think is going to happen to him tomorrow. And I do worry about how much more out of control he might get. And therefore, having a Congress and having the courts and having state attorneys generals and others all working to try to control the damage that he could do is going to be really important.”

I’m with Her, still. Just think of America had he never been elected and she won.

No tariffs; no wars; no dust-ups with our allies and no ass-kissing to despots and tyrants. No criminality and grifting and enriching yourself and your criminal family off the White House.

What a wonderful world this would be if racists didn’t get out to vote and Democrats who weren’t sure about her hadn’t stayed home.

Jessica Tarlov, the lone voice of reason on Fox “News”, on Nazi Stephen Miller’s promotion to LameDonaldDuck’s Chief of Staff:

“It boggles the mind that Republicans could look at Tuesday’s results and say, ‘You know who needs a bigger job? Stephen Miller.’ Tuesday was a repudiation of everything that [The Regime] stands for. And they need new talking points because ‘Oh the Democrats are going to do Medicare for all’ isn’t scaring anyone. Texas is blue. The largest victory in half a century. Incredible. And this is the guy who demanded 3,000 deportations a day that terrorized American communities to the point we haven’t seen a Latino surge like this and a youth surge like this. If you want to win elections again, I think this is one of the dumbest things you could do.”

This shows who LameDonaldDuck really is, and who the GOP wants to be in charge at the White House.

A racist bigot for the last two years of a dementia-riddled gas bag of flesh.

Amy Acton, newly elected Democrat governor of Ohio, on refusing to take Vivek Ramaswamy’s call on election night:

“I think we can’t normalize behavior like this. It was so beyond the pale. So, No, I have no intention of speaking to him. I do believe leaders’ words matter and we need to hold folks accountable.”

The fact that men are astounded that Acton wouldn’t speak to Vivek, after that vile political ad, shows how Republican men feel about women; less than.

Ana Navarro, GOP co-host of The View,  on the midterms:

“I’m really proud of the American people because we showed that we don’t storm the Capitol, we storm the ballot box. And [on election day], you know, [LameDonaldDuck] said, ‘Pretend I’m on the ballot.’ And Americans said, ‘Okay, we will.’ And they grabbed him by the ballot box.”

I love Ana’s way with words. I love that she calls it exactly as she sees it. She’s my favorite Republican.

Jessica Lange, actor, saying that at 77 she still has parts to play but also wondering if her time is up:

“I actually feel like I’m coming to an end. Maybe it’s not a bad way to end, that last film being Long Day’s Journey Into Night and playing Mary Tyrone. There are a couple projects that have been in the works forever that may or may not happen. I don’t know. It doesn’t seem easy to get things made anymore. At least not the kind of films that interest me. I’ve been incredibly lucky. I love acting, and I’ve had decades of being able to do it, which has been a joy for me. Difficult at times, balancing family and career and locations and dragging my kids here and there. But it all was a great adventure. I’m so grateful that [it] came my way.”

She is one of my favorites; I don’t think I’ve ever seen her when I wasn’t amazed. Even in King Kong because that really started her journey.

If you’ve never seen her in A Thousand Acres and can find it, I suggest you watch it. Lange is one of those actresses who can speak volumes in silence.
