Comeback Kid

The Empire Strikes Back

There are now three candidates for POTUS - all white guys over 70. Over 220 years of old, white guys, a new presidential election record by a mile. These three amigos were born at the very beginnings of the baby Boomer generation, the generation who's motto was "Do not trust anyone over 30." Baby boomers are now driving the 'do not vote for anyone under 72' movement. Moreover, Boomers' distrust of the Establishment is now 180º to 'do not trust a radical' a.k.a., Bernie. Therefore, it will likely come down to Old Joe verses The Donald. That is 150 years of old, white guys, which makes Kennedy verses Nixon seem like a race for the high school class presidency.

The Democrat Establishment is 100% behind Old Joe and, as with Hillary, should be able to push Bernie aside. It may seem like a 2016 rerun, because it is. However, it will be entertaining, especially to the Republicans.

Setting the Stage

Unusual Suspects Americans face seemingly insurmountable problems and need someone to blame. We have mastered the world. America is the most prosperous and powerful country on Earth, and we tend to take credit for that success. However, we cannot do everything and some things we do have unintended side effects that we cannot control. For example, we do not treat everyone equally. While many things point to why, the greater truth is we have not figured out how to make that workable. We have created a great deal but consumed a great deal to do so. This has created problems such as pollution, which we have struggled for decades to ameliorate with minimal success. We invest trillions in our military but cannot stop wars, and we provide others with weapons to fight. We reached the top but now watch others climb past us. We are the wealthiest country with the highest debt and have no plan to settle it....

Alabama Plays the Trump Card to Defeat Georgia Candidate Trump wearing Georgia Red with Crimson Tide supporters The only thing more divisive than this year's election would probably be the Alabama/Georgia game. While everybody in the stadium was probably as red as blood, the shades made all the difference. Mr. Trump sat with the Alabama Tide because one of his Mar Largo members offered an invite that probably included a campaign contribution. His support was widely noticed in the Tuscaloosa stadium, much to the chagrin of the Georgia fans, who watched as the Tide kept the Bulldogs from reaching the winning goal in the final minutes while tolerating the constant chant 'Eat Them Dawgs' from Tide fans, who were referring to the rumors of Haitians eating neighbors' pets in Springfield, Ohio, not the Bulldogs. Mr. Trump got caught between high Tide and many potential Georgia voters. It was more entertaining than the halftime show.

2024's Longest Running Joke Finally Has a Punchline

Ron DeSantis finally ended his Goofy quest with a whimper of a misquote , which seemed to punctuate his campaign. Churchill would be baffled, as were the voters. Perhaps, Ron was quoting former president George W. Bush, who was also famous for malapropisms.
