Up until the inauguration, I was anxious over Trump taking over in a coup. Even after the capitol terrorists were beaten back and it looked like the play had failed (Trump's play that included replacing many in the pentagon hierarchy with his sycophants, which tied down the national guard) I was worried. The National Guard in every area in DC was NOT comforting. Hell, using the military to deal with insurrection was precisely how Chile and Uganda fell to Pinochet and Idi Amin respectively. I used to think that those leaders made some dumbfuck decisions in trusting these generals, pretty much on par with making Hitler the chancellor in some idiotic gambit to control the uncontrollable.
Now I think that they had a ton of shit options and they chose the one that seemed the least shitty. So DC was using the least shitty option and thankfully it didn't lead to an even worse military coup. I'm not being herded into a fucking stadium to be murdered. Ok, I wouldn't be in the stadium. I'd be in the third or fourth wave of people who disappear for being a smartass. I might try to help out but I'd be totally fucked in that deal. The second guy that I trust would be the damn informant.
It did help that American Intervention wasn't behind the coup. Sure there was Russian intervention but as the Cold War proved, the Russians can't pull off the big fuck overthrows. They can support the shitbags who already have power. They have been doing it for the past decade with Syria and their boys in Ukraine but that's no Chile coup with an assassination of a democratically elected leader, thousands of supporters and a military in charge for 15 years.
So I feel relaxed. I feel like the worst case scenario didn't happen. I feel like Trump is going to die alone and loved by people who are going to die alone and unloved.
I'm even buying dogecoins. That's really some dumb shit investment. But they go up and down so damn fast that might as well. And hell, I can dream of a bitcoin explosion.
I mean my other major dream for money is for the lawyers to finally file a class action suit against Isabella Geriatric, the nursing home that killed my mother (I almost didn't name it) and getting that wrongful death payout. But that's looking more distant. Fuck Cuomo.
Seriously fuck Cuomo - which I saw as someone who knows that Trump and his minions are worse, but fuck them too for making Cuomo look good.
