I do think the last one is truly appropriate, in fact the MAGAs remind me so much of those conservatives who wailed relentlessly as they waited for another Reagan. Their inability to let go hurt them terribly at the ballot box for so long.
#1 - even if ours wasn't/isn't as ignorant, crazy and self-absorbed as yours, the similarities were still too conspicuous to be glossed over. Would that yours could have been going as quietly (relatively)!
Being English and a Labour Party supporter, I naturally applaud the image of Johnson leaving the stage and casting a chillingly familiar shadow. There are several disturbing parallels.

ReplyDeleteThe thing is, they come out against any Repug who isn't Thing 45 and that will end up shooting them all in the foot.

ReplyDeleteThe United States of Guns.
DeleteA sad state of affairs... I wish I knew how to successfully emigrate. And I wish it was easy to do so.

ReplyDeleteOurs is far more childish and self-entitled and enabled, I think.
DeleteGood collection, Bob, if depressing.
ReplyDeletexoxo :-)
Gotta keep us on our feet so we don't give up the fight.
DeleteThe evolution one about sums it up.
ReplyDeleteAnd at least Boris knows when to throw in the towel.
True about Boris, though he really had no chance; Thing 45 still has a great many in the GOP bending over for his tiny orange mushroom dick.
DeleteGood selection this week. I'm hoping that first one is a hint of things to come in the US. And I agree with the last one 100%.
ReplyDeleteHopefully both come true!
DeleteInjustice is rife, the reversal of evolution is almost funny, but a lot of people seem to be headed that way anyway.
ReplyDeleteIt's funny cuz, sadly, it feels true.
DeleteI just returned from a couple of days in the land of he who must not be named, guns and all.
ReplyDeleteGlad you made it home safely.
