Silver Lining, Day 1410

 Rudy goes "woof"

Ivanka goes "meow"

Donnie goes "tweet"

And Pompeio goes "squeek"

Jared goes "moo"

Don Jr goes "croak"

And the McConnell goes "toot"

Lame Ducks say "quack"

And Pence go "blub"

And the Lindsay goes "ow ow ow"

But there's one sound

That no one knows

What does Fox News say?

"Lie-lie-lie-lie-lingeringeding!

Lying-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding!

Lying-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding!"

What does Fox News say?

"Antifa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-pow!

What Fox News say?

"Squad-squad-squaddo-squaddo-squad!

Squad-squad-squaddo-squaddo-squad!

Squad-squad-squaddo-squaddo-squad "

What Fox News say?

Big red lies

Conspiracy nose

Chasing fraud

And finding no holes

Tiny paws

Up the hill

Suddenly you're standing still

Your leader is orange

So pitiful

Like a devil in disguise

But if you meet

A friendly Hannity

Will you communicate by

In-san-san-san-ity?

In-san-san-san-ity?

In-san-san-san-ity?

How will you speak to that

Han-ni-ni-ni-ty?

Han-ni-ni-ni-ty?

Han-ni-ni-ni-ty?

What does Fox News say?

"Frauda-frauda-frauda-but how?

Frauda-frauda-frauda-but how?”

What the Fox News say?

"Fake-kaka-kaka-kaka-kow!

Fake-kaka-kaka-kaka-kow!

Fake-kaka-kaka-kaka-kow!"

What the Fox News say?

"A-O-C ha-hee!

A-O-C ha-hee!

A-O-C ha-hee!"

What the Fox Newssay?

"A-oo-oo-oo-ooo!

Woo-oo-oo-ooo!"

What does Fox News say?

The secret of Fox News

Spin conspiracy

Somewhere deep in the South

I know proof is hiding

What is its sound?

Will we ever know?

Will always be a mystery

What does Rudy say?

You're my fallen angel

Hiding in the news

What is your sound?

(Lie-aa-way-do, wub-wid-bid-dum-way-do, wa-wa-way-do)

Will we ever know? (Biden-budabud-dum-bam)

I want to (Kamala-dum-day-do) I want to, I want to know!

(Tooay-manay-votays bum-bum bay-do)

We’ll never know.

Silver Lining, Day 1409

Every time a bell rings, an angel gets its wings. And a Trump election lawsuit is dismissed.

Silver Lining, Day 1408

 Donnie to retire and become night manager at Señor Fraud's.

Silver Lining, Day 1407

 We've entered into the "Donnie on Bath Salts" stage of the presidency.

Silver Lining, Day 1406

Thankful that this is my last Thanksgiving silver lining. (And thankful for all of you who have told me they will miss my silver linings.)

Silver Lining, Day 1405

The Law and Order President just pardoned Michael "Lock Her Up" Flynn, who pled guilty not once, but twice, to lying to the FBI. In case you needed an extra side dish for your Thanksgiving feast tomorrow, there's plenty of Tangerine Horseshit Pie* to go around!

 *(sorry Kermit)

Silver Lining, Day 1404

 In a rare break from tradition, Corn the Turkey pardoned Trump in the Rose Garden today.

Silver Lining, Day 1403

Thank you, Muse, Melanie for the inspiration.....

There must be some kind of way outta here

Said the POTUS to the Chief

There's too much collusion

I can't get tax relief

Republicans, they drink my lies

Fox News helped with my rebirth

Never level on the line

Nobody kept his word

Hey, hey

No reason to get indicted

The Chief, he slyly spoke

There are many here among us

Who feel that Don is but a joke

But, uh, but USA, we've been through that

And this is not our fate

So let us stop talkin' falsely now

The hour's getting late, hey

Hey

All along the Trump Tower

Putin kept the view

While all the lackeys came and went

Barefoot swamprats, too

Well, uh, outside in the cold distance

A Democrat did growl

Two riders were approaching

And the wind began to howl, hey

All along the Trump Tower

All along the Trump Tower

Silver Lining, Day 1402

I wanted to post this a couple of weeks ago, but he keeps digging in, and I have to keep adding verses. Another R.E.M classic revised for the Lunatic in the Asylum:

That's great, it starts with an escalator

Mexicans and rapists, crazy talk

And Hillary is not afraid

Eye of a shitstorm, white supremacists reborn

MAGA serves its own needs

Don't underestimate Trump greed

Speed it up a notch, sad! grunt, no, strength

The ladder starts to clatter

With a fear of Right, non-White

GOP on fire, losing candidates

And a government haywire and an alt-right fight

Left her, wasn't winning in a hurry

With the Swing States breaking Red, what the heck?

Poll by poll, reporters baffled, trumped, tethered, cropped

Look at that Fox News, fine, then

Uh oh, overflow, population, Q-Anon

But it'll do, save yourself, serve yourself

Donald serves his own needs, listen to our hearts bleed

Evangelicals and Rapture and the reverent on the Right

You vitriolic, hate-riotic, racist fight, not-so-bright light

Not feeling very psyched

It's the end of the Trump Administration

It's the end of the Trump Administration

It's the end of the Trump Administration and I feel fine

Six o'clock, Fox News hour, don't get caught with a foreign power

Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself spurn

Lock him up in uniform, book burning, bloodletting

Shady motive escalate, constitution incinerate

Light a candle, light a motive, never step down, never step down

Watch your heel crush, crush, uh oh

This means lots of fear, cavalier, renegade and steering clear

A tournament, a tourniquet, a monument of lies

Offer me covfefe, offer me hamburders and I decline

It's the end of the Trump Administration

It's the end of the Trump Administration

It's the end of the Trump Administration and I feel fine

I feel fine (I feel fine)

Four years fly by riots and cultural rift divide

Giuliani drops a line, Roger Stone does time

Vladimir Putin, Scaramucci, Kellyanne

Stormy Daniels, Mueller punts, impeached and boom

You symbiotic, unpatriotic, slammer-bound fright, right, right?

Election day, what do you say? Priming up the Proud Boys

Forgot about the Virus. Plant the seeds, suspicion breeds

Voting early, acting surly, Florida stays Red (I’m Dead)

But Michigan and ‘Sconsin then Arizona and P – A

When Georgia Flips Blue I say what the Hay?

Election over, no concession, full regression

The Gee Oh Pee has no shame

Moscow Mitch and Lyndsay Graham,

total mayhem

It’s still November, lawsuits come and lawsuits die

He’s never giving up and they’re sticking with his Lies

I started this weeks ago but he’s not giving up

And I wonder why

Then I see his followers sending ca$h as he bleeds them dry, and don’t forget COVID and our citizens continue to die and die.

So it’s clear, my dears, as I add verse after verse

Donnie’s gone from bad to worse,

dragging us, dragging us, ALL of us, down….

So here I go, I’m calling it,

thank you for bearing with this shit,

we’re almost there ....

It's the end of the Trump Administration

It's the end of the Trump Administration

It's the end of the Trump Administration and I feel fine

Silver Lining, Day 1401

Donnie was golfing and landed in a sand trap. He blamed the media for affirming that sand exists, claimed he had a hole in one but the green was rigged, and hired Rudy "Drippy" Giuliani to sue the head groundskeeper.

Silver Lining, Day 1400

Don Jr. with COVID-19. I guess you CAN catch it on Parler!

Silver Lining, Day 1399

Trump suing the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences demanding a recount for the 2004, 2005 and 2006 Emmy Awards. Rudy Giuliani says it is the greatest fraud in reality programming award recognition!

Silver Lining, Day 1398

Andrew Gounardes and Mathylde Frontus! Thank the heavens!

Silver Lining, Day 1396

Our president needs to shut the fuck up and maybe try and save some lives. 

This is from just before 9am. TODAY. 

Friends and family, Democrats and Republicans, alike. I implore you to PLEASE contact your elected representatives in Congress and beg them to curb our Orange Julius Caesar!

Silver Lining, Day 1395

On the bike today, I saw a truck with a Trump 2020: Make Liberals Cry Again decal. 

Tears of Irony.

Silver Lining, Day 1394

It really is remarkable how little Donny-boy cares about the United States. His antipathy knows no bounds.

Silver Lining, Day 1393

Is it considered an ass-kicking now?

Silver Lining, Day 1392

Q-Annoying

Silver Lining, Day 1391

Apologies to R.E.M. 

Oh, lies are bigger 

Are bigger 

Than you and you are not me 

The lengths that I will go to 

The resistance in your eyes 

Oh no, I've said too much 

I set it up 

That's me on the golf course 

That's me in denial 

Losing my election 

Trying to keep up with Q 

And I don't know if I can do it 

Oh no, I've said too much 

I haven't said enough 

I thought that I saw you laughing 

I thought that I heard you cry 

I think I thought I saw you try 

Every denier 

Of every waking hour 

I'm choosing my suppressions 

Trying to keep an eye on Q 

Like a hurt lost and blinded fool, fool 

Oh no, I've said too much 

I set it up 

Consider this 

Consider this 

The fraud of the century (that’s me) 

Consider this 

The slip that brought me 

To my knees, reality 

What if all these fantasies 

Come crashing to the ground? 

Now I've said too much 

I thought that I filed a lawsuit, or two, or ten 

I thought that I heard Giuliani 

I think I thought I saw you lie 

But that was just a dream 

A deluded traitorous dream 

That's me in the White House 

That's me in the Twitter 

Losing the election 

Trying to fuck it up for you 

And I don't know if I can do it 

Oh no, I've said too much 

I haven't said enough 

I thought that I heard you Joe-lecting 

I thought that I heard Mitch scream 

I think I thought I started to cry 

But that was just a dream 

Try, lie 

Why try? 

This is just a lie, just scream, just scream 

Scream

You can kiss next year's Nobel Peace Prize goodbye, too, you big orange baby!

Silver Lining, Day 1389

For a party so resistant to science, it makes sense that they'd have a problem with math, as well.

Silver Lining, Day 1388

Something to chew on. Keep in mind, toward the end, the Trump campaign was cash-poor and had been vastly outspent by Biden.  

Imagine, had Trump embraced science from the get-go, and started mass-producing, selling and marketing MAGA masks , and crimson Trump Masks, and all the variations (I'm convinced "Lock Her Up" masks would have still been best sellers). He would have sold these to his followers by the boatload (one for every day of the week!), and his campaign could have had a huge influx of cash AND his supporters would have worn those masks with zealous abandon. 

Think about it. Not only about the financial possibilities, HOW MANY LIVES WOULD HE HAVE SAVED, especially among his own base? 

One can argue that, had he not mishandled the pandemic from the onset, this election would have gone a much different way. His supporters may not agree, but he also mishandled a huge marketing opportunity that, I argue, would have made a difference and changed history. 

An astute businessman should have known better.

Silver Lining, Day 1387, pt 3

Down one "friend," who blocked/ unfriended me after I left a very empathetic reply on one of his posts. Seriously, folks, give some love to your Trumpsters. They have serious Stockholm Syndrome and need some reprogramming. They have a Supreme Court conservative majority as a consolation prize and still have a shot at controlling the Senate, so keep that in mind. Oh, and there's a fucking pandemic going on. Take care of yourself and one another. Be safe. Wear a mask. COVID-19 doesn't care how you voted.

I'm "claiming" Gold Lamé Duck.

Donnie has a serious case of BLUE balls.

Silver Lining, Day 1386

Trump supporters are going to need their own 12-step recovery plan when this is all over.

Silver Lining, Day 1385

Guys, I am having second thoughts about my choices. 

After watching what has transpired over the last couple of months, I have seen a lot of hate spewed toward a man who has, time and again, proven to be a winner and overachiever, and I get it, that's what the people who support him like about him. Yes, he's been caught in lies and twisted the truth a little, but he still shows up every day and is there proving his haters wrong time after time. It's normal for people to be jealous of someone who is successful, powerful, and has a lot of money. Throw in that beautiful wife, steadfast by his side, and they hate him even more. I realize now that you may not have wanted him in his role, but he's there now and there's nothing you can do about it. I know it’s possibly going to get worse over the next several days, but I am sold. I'm flipping the script and, love him or hate him, I'm giving him his props .... Tom Brady is really truning things around in Tampa.

Just swirl this around your brain a little. Source: NYTimes... 

Andrew Bates, a spokesman for the Biden campaign, said the push for a recount was not the behavior of a winning campaign. “When Donald Trump won Wisconsin in 2016 by roughly the same amount of votes that Joe Biden just did, or won Michigan with fewer votes than Joe Biden is winning it now, he bragged about a ‘landslide,’ and called recount efforts ‘sad,’” Mr. Bates said. “What makes these charades especially pathetic is that while Trump is demanding recounts in places he has already lost, he’s simultaneously engaged in fruitless attempts to halt the counting of votes in other states in which he’s on the road to defeat.” 

And yes, Michigan has been declared for Biden now. 

I'm crossing everything I've got to cross.

Donnie's SAT scores were so low, he couldn't even get wait-listed for Electoral College. #funnierinmyhead

Richie Torres and Mondaire Jones. Congratulations!

Maybe now that #MoscowMitch and #LustyLindsay have won reelection, they can find their spines and muzzle their yapping orange chihuahua? [Please, no hate mail from chihuahua lovers. Thank you!]

Silver Lining, Day 1384 (c)

Every minute that he can't declare himself a winner, he is becoming more unhinged, saying stupid fascist shit that is full of misleading statements and lies that are swallowed whole or disregarded by his supporters. In other words, it's Wednesday.

Silver Lining, Day 1384 (b)

Count every vote. Every vote counts.

Silver Lining, Day 1384 (a)

Stepping in dog shit doesn't seem like such a big deal anymore.

Silver Lining, Day 1383

We here at Silver Linings, Incorporated, endorse Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, even though a Biden Presidency would shut down the Trump Silver Linings plant in Brooklyn. We can deal with shuttering our operation if it means ousting the sexist, racist, xenophobic, vile excuse for a human being from the White House. A hearty thanks to all the Americans who are working as poll workers and doing their part to strengthen and protect our electoral process, a cornerstone of our democracy. Your hard work is recognized and appreciated!

A couple of friends have posted this from Bay Ridge. I stole this shot from my city councilman's Twitter feed. It says everything that needs to be said and perfectly encapsulates my view of the Cult of 45.
