Get The Popcorn Ready

Oh, the 2024 U.S. Presidential election race, as I ponder on it with my head's empty space. Our nation is so out of joint, our political differences at a breaking point, with name calling rife in online blogs, I would rather listen to bellowing bullfrogs. Republicans, Democrats, Independents, liberal, moderate, conservative, it's malevolent, people attacking each other, well, if I had my druthers, I'd nominate my hound dog mix, Beau for President, he'd legislate from a canine-run government. He makes more sense than a lot of people do, the inept Secret Service can pick up his poo. In three months this election mess will come to us voters so weary, I think many of us will be bleary. Keep your nerves steady, and get the popcorn ready. ~

Gee, such a great suggestion for what the Secret Service can actually do -- pick up your dog's poo! lol... And, like you, I am bleary-eyed already from all the election 'malarkey,' to quote the beleaguered lame-duck in the Oval Office. ~ Gershon

Lol! Gershon, yes I'm definitely bleary-eyed too. Election night is going to be a long one, but I'm going to bed at 8:30 p.m. like I usually do anyway. Sending you a soupmail on the state of the U.S. political landscape this weekend. Shalom u'vrakha
