For the longest time we complained about how far too few ‘Muricans bothered to vote and now here we are, staring into the abyss waiting for the sweet darkness to overtake us and wishing most of the people who schlepped their lardasses out of their recliners had just stayed home to watch reruns of The [&hellip

Picture it: January 2018, Trumpmerica. A year has passed since Donald J. Trump, née Drumpf, was sworn in as the 45th President of the United States of Great America. It only took reporters 30 days to be able to say “President Trump” without nervously giggling and less than that for RNC Chairman Reince Priebus to [&hellip
