Palin - Trump & The Age of The Rise of Schmuckism
With esteemed history writers and pundits already referring to the time period between the rise of The Tea Party with the ascension of Sarah Palin in 2008 to the ascension of Donald Trump in 2016 and beyond as “The Rise of The American Schmucks” i thought i might peruse over that for the benefit of my followers.
I suppose you could look at this time of our cultural collapse as a period when - (let’s stick with the adjective “Schmucks” as it immediately designates and implicitly conjures up the demo i am addressing here, without any fancy pants esoteric parsing that might cause confusion - (and also has a nice talmudic ring to it)
SUDDENLY! - Schmucks all over America suddenly looked at Sarah Palin - Maybe the biggest schmuck ever to run for VP and a Woman to boot AND hand picked by a man of serious esteem and rectitude and intelligence. (I mean here’s a guy who frequently quotes Marcus Aurelius pinning his hopes for The Presidency on an ignorant tool/fool Barbie Doll from a shithole town in Alaska?)
And these first class American schmucks all said to themselves - “Well i’ll be god damned - Look at her! -Sheeet! - If SHE can become vice president then i certainly could be too or even run General Motors or maybe some fancy University or at least manage a Bowling Alley? - Them libtards has been keepin us down from perspiring to greater positions with their phony fancy -impossible ways of telling about stuff! - OH and thank The Lordy for our war hero John McCaine for showing us the way!”
“Can Do! -”Can Do” -”Pass The Pipe!”
Well from there to Trump was just a walk in the park! -A cakewalk down the lane! -A stroll from Schmuckville USA to the Oval Office and a whole political party manned by schmucks from top to bottom ( some women too)
Personally i forgive McCain for giving American progressives and ALL intelligent kind American’s in general - The biggest cornholing in our history AND now i’ll tell ya why!
It’s a story as close to the human condition as it gets from the days of the caves!
A Once viral Heroic Alpha Prime Male now degraded in his once awesome hormonal appeal to the vast array of hotties he has enjoyed throughout his life BUT -Now -Still in a position of great power AND politically positioned potentially to choose The next Vice President of the good ole USA! (and who knows - maybe even president?)
A lusty busty long legged hot primitive eager and fiercely competitive athletic woman whom he can raise to greatness with one momentous announcement AND a woman who knows he can do it! -NOW!
SO -How long do you think it took her -A gal known in Wasilla, Alaska High School for her second rumored achievement after her prowess as point guard for The Wasilla Warriors -”She can suck The Chrome off a Trailer Hitch” - To turn poor old McCain into her cheerleader AND ardent political supporter in the face of strong opposition from all of his most trusted acolytes -advisors and the entire revulsion of the mainstream media. (And alas his subsequent defeat and demise) -Irony worthy of The Bard)
I mean -Mitt Romney and The Presidency OR one last great piece of ass???
Sounds like a no-brainer to me!
Announcement. On August 29, 2008 the day after the Democratic Convention, John McCain introduced Sarah Palin in a speech at Wright State University in Fairborn, Ohio, a suburb of Dayton.
“By and large, the GOP base adored Palin. Its loving embrace of such an unhinged figure was an early sign that the Republican Party was far more willing to tolerate qualities once thought to be disqualifying for public life than many people understood.”
“ It’s not as if Republicans hadn’t worn the badge of anti-intellectualism before (see: Ronald Reagan, George W. Bush). But Palin personified a dangerous new strain. She (infamously) didn’t read much; put forth few policy positions beyond “drill, baby drill”; excelled at whipping up crowds into a frothing frenzy; and attacked Barack Obama in brazen, personal terms. “ NY Magazine
WELL my amigos -The rest is history - As the inexorable parade marched down the slippery slope paved by tens of millions of deplorable schmucks into the GOP trump trog pit it is today - Initially Led by a basically flawed simpleton dumbo schmuck with big tits - Who then passed the Baton along to the deranged Orange Clown and his GOP knuckle draggers - (the absolute nadir of American Political Culture) -Culminating in it’s arrival in our Capitol on Jan 6!
AND The Age of The Rise of Schmuckism Continues Unabated
PS -It is facile to draw a straight line from Palin to this sad state of affairs. But it is striking that, even as he lay dying, McCain wouldn’t fully reckon with the forces he helped unleash. -The blow jobs that ruined America.
