Two for two

 I remember in 2016  writing a piece about how unfair it was that we lost Muhammad Ali and gained Donald Trump.  I think I regarded it as one of the worst trades in history along with the Mike Piazza fiasco.

As I look back on 2020 I realize the Universe might have tried to even the score.  We lost Kobe but we gained Joe while losing that Trump goofball.

Today Joe Biden has been President for 13 days and has executed 750 Executive orders and still needs 35,000 to offset the damage done by that TV game show host.

Of course it's my turn to exaggerate but I hope you get my point.

Environmental issues should be the priority because The Donald was busy right up until he left trying to undermine anything having to do with Clean Air and Clean Water issues.  The EPA standards introduced by previous Presidents from both parties and almost totally destroyed by Trump should start to be noticeable within a few months.

Richard Nixon started the EPA in case you didn't know.

Scott Pruitt and Andrew Wheeler, the last two heads of the EPA under Donald Trump, might turn out to be the worst appointments in the history of President appointments.  And if you think I'm exaggerating I simply ask you to research both of those men and concentrate of what their backgrounds were before being selected to oversee the one position in a cabinet that concentrates on making sure our health and the health of our children's children is a priority.

13 days and we've had 12 press briefings.  I hope you've bothered to take a few minutes and watch one or two of those briefings.  The attitude in the room is relaxed with questions being asked and answers being given that don't seem robotic....

By the way the drugstores in Washington DC lost about 90 percent of their blond hair color business when "President Biff" hit he highway.  Trivia questions...how many blonds worked for Donald J Trump in the last fours years?   Answer......all of them.

Roger Ailes and Donald Trump came from the same cocoon.

I don't want to mention her name but that woman from Georgia who is a QAnon follower and somehow got elected to the House of Representatives needs to be sent to detention.  Maybe a few days with Sister Mary Margaret from the rectory in Atlanta might straighten her out.  She and the Pillow Guy need to find an island north of Greenland and start a family while they wait for spaceship from the Andromeda Galaxy.

Just a reminder to read the book Shadow Network by Anne Nelson.

And one more thing....I realize the Corvid situation is very much a priority and wearing a mask should not be an optional situation

BUT

doesn't everything seem a bit calmer over the last two weeks?

Seriously
