Prickly City by Scott Stantis for April 21, 2024

gotta love his optimism

The Trump trial should shed some light on Republican shenanigans.

And it is a long, long train.

Then it comes to be that the soothing light/At the end of your tunnel/Is just a freight train coming your way — Metallica, “No Leaf Clover”

I rode a hand car.

Only if it’s the Stable Genius.

Respectfully Mr. Stantis, you need to realize this is the race we have and complaining will not change it.

The good news for you, this will be the last race for both candidates.

I have a solution to the train wreck concept. Vote for Biden. He’s done a respectable job and will continue to be respectable. No wreck. And we might even get a break from having to hear the latest nitwityness from TFG.

And it will be huge, I tell you, huge!

It’s OK to be brave, Stanti.

No, it’s a mirror…

One of the most disturbing moments in “Civil War” shows a camouflage-clad fighter threatening the journalists. When they insist they are Americans, he asks, “What kind of American are you?”

Carlos Lozada in The Times

The light at the end of the tunnel does not exist under Joe Biden’s administration of despair. A second term of a Joe Biden presidency would be lethal for America and American Workers. Vote Republican to remove Joe Biden and to remove every Democrat from office. Vote Republican 2024

^ You’re right, were all living in sunshine now.

Except the rwnjs who insist on cowering in their caves.

I burned my nose on the light at the end of the tunnel.

The rare time I’ve wasted my time looking on former Twitter I’ve ran across this maroon going “Trump Train”. I’m thinking “going off the rails on the crazy train”.

jump off the track!

A trump train ?

Many unused railroad lines were converted to bike trails. The instructions tell people that they should get off their bike and walk it through as the darkness is disorienting, and it was hard to balance. We got to experience the “light at the end of the tunnel” in a FUN way.

“Gettysburg, what an unbelievable battle that was. It was so much, and so interesting, and so vicious and horrible, and so beautiful in so many different ways—it represented such a big portion of the success of this country.

“Gettysburg, wow—I go to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, to look and to watch. “And the statement of Robert E. Lee, who’s no longer in favor—did you ever notice it? He’s no longer in favor. ‘Never fight uphill, me boys, never fight uphill.’ They were fighting uphill, he said, ‘Wow, that was a big mistake,’ he lost his big general. ‘Never fight uphill, me boys,’ but it was too late,”

.

The Stable Genius has NO IDEA what took place at Gettysburg, except there was a battle. He could probably guess which side won. And the Address? “Person, woman, man camera, TV!”

And the MAGAts cheer his incredible insights.

An old judge named Julius Hoffman was criticized for tying up and gagging unruly defendants.

But a precedent HAS been established…..
