It’s nice to wake up in the morning knowing I have a light schedule.
Campaigning is a bitch. No other way to say it. But these last few days with nothing to do, it’s been spectacular.
Ok, so today I do have to do a rally with Sleepy Joe. But no questions, smile a little. Say some words written on a prompter — have some wine. Easy.
But then… I’m up getting my coffee and there is a little gift left for me. Even addresses to Kamalanomenon. I’m thinking — how very sweet of someone!
And I open it. It’s a coffee mug. Ok, helpful. Then I turn it around and it says:
“You can’t just leave those who created the problem in charge of the solution.” ~Tyree Scott
And I’m thinking…. Did they mean me? That’s bullshit.
Yes, inflation bad, gas prices up, food prices unreasonable, crime ridiculously bad —- war everywhere. Chaos in the streets; antisemitism rising. Gangs taking over apartment buildings, people feeling unsafe in their own homes? All of these bad things (and probably a few I’m not immediately thinking of) in last 3 1/2 years. While I was there, in office, in the room, with responsibilities. But who’s counting?
I’m just the Vice President. What could I have done? When I’m in office, as the President, my magic wand will fix all those things. Hopefully, because my policies… well… they are much of the same that got us into this mess. Whoever left this for mug for me… fuck ‘em. It might be an accurate and appropriate quote – but fuck ‘em anyway.
A little Baileys in this mug with the coffee — and I say — screw everybody. I brat.
