Well, I had that conversation with My Friend From Fifth Grade last night. It was a short one. She said that she and her sister think it was all just a conspiracy by the Republicans to get sympathy for Trump and it was fake blood and he never got shot and maybe it was an inside job etc. etc. etc.
And I said no, it was an actual missed assassination and she said no it wasn't, and I told her she and her sister could sometimes be little pieces of shit and that I'd talk to her next week.
Yes, I agree with you a trazillion percent, there's no shortage of incompetent morons in the world and local law enforcement is like the magnet that attracts 'em and smacks 'em up against responsibilities they ain't got the least capacity for like watermelons bursting on sidewalks.
Take a look at the photo in the Daily Mail Online today contrasting Trump's SS detail last night in the convention, and on Saturday. It's so grimly hilarious you'll cry.
It will perhaps not shock you that her sister was an elementary school teacher and she was briefly a HS teacher and then went on to a long civil service career.
And I have always been the poor dumb one who went wrong early.
TDS sets up brain dysfunction so theyтАЩre really vulnerable to all the propaganda. Sad. I know people like this too. Amazing how the people dubbed the poor тАЬdumb onesтАЭ are often the smartest in the room, and have more common sense.
My feelings towards Trump, until Saturday, were entirely a sort of pitying contempt.
I still feel pitying contempt for all the times he utterly failed to meet the moment but finally he met the moment and rose to it. There ain't enough ginger tea in the world to ease my kishkes.
No, I have been throughout the entire course of my life been extraordinarily fortunate in my friendships, and this one has been there for me a few times when I really absolutely needed her. I ain't been hanging on with her from sheer masochistic thrillseeking.
I get that. My little sister says, "never mistake her quietness as agreement or passivity. SheтАЩs quietly weighing your worth, and if you escape unscathed itтАЩs because the scales were weighted in your favor."
Lots of people never graduate from school...and grow older but never become adults...I tend to think if high school was really good and fun for you( ie you were head cheerleader 9r prom queen) ....you never manage to mentally leave. If you hated it like me..school was torture until i could get the he'll out. No happy memories.
When I went to my 10th high school reunion, I saw those types of people and what the real world did to them: Bitter divorces, drugs and alcohol problems, poor choices. I was happily married with 3 kids. Went to my 20th and more were mature but a couple still held their high school mentalities. Last year was my 45th. We all got along great because we've all experienced real life. The one queen bee in high school showed up with her high profile husband in their brand new Range Rover expecting to be treated like royalty. They were actually kind of shunned and I saw it on her face. It humbled her. Yes, I'm still happily married (45 years next month) with still the 3 kids, 2 grandkids, and 1 great-granddaughter. Moderation is key in all things.
She was skipped twice in elementary school and then was in the accelerated two-year middle school track as I was and she was always one of the youngest in class while I was always one of the oldest. She started college at 16. Was never ever properly with a peer group. It's bad to be very very smart and very very young in all your classes. She never fit in anywhere but I think she thought she was less weird than I was.
This amuses me because they have spent the past four years loudly painting all of us as crazy conspiracy theorists, yet now they have the granddaddy conspiracy of all! Do they even seen themselves?? ЁЯдг
The two of them are still trying to work that all out.
I had no patience to argue further. I'm queasy enough right now, knowing I must make that awful walk to the polling station and trash my integrity etc. etc. etc. Not much more I can handle.
I briefly considered the idea that this event was staged from TrumpтАЩs side but ultimately it just doesnтАЩt make sense for them to do it. They were probably already going to beat Biden fairly handily so a move this desperate doesnтАЩt make a lot of sense. Too much risk for not much reward. The only thing it accomplishes is that it probably makes it way harder to fake election results unless the democrats can find a way to replace Biden.
To stage this from Trump's side would require the collusion of Biden's Secret Service or The Invasion of the Body Snatchers turning all of those guys into pod people.
I'm gonna go now and rewatch In the Line of Fire for the trabillionth time because maybe only John Malkovich can cheer me up today.
It wasn't scolding so much as completely out of patience, after this weekend, and this is a combat-pay grade level friendship. When she's not complaining about her sister to me, the two of them are mocking that I fell into the Dark Web.
IтАЩd mock them for believing the Russian collusion conspiracy theory and HunterтАЩs laptop. These two sisters would hop on the first train to Crazyville if the conspiracy theorists on their tv told them to do so.
Actually she, who watches many news channels had never heard of the Steele dossier or Hunter's laptop. She was baffled when I mentioned them recently in reference to election interference.
Lmao this comment. (To think I once did not *like* you SCA. To my lasting shame.) Anyway, I really read this first as you currently having a little 5th grader friend that you occasionally discuss current events with.
In fact she is quite little but only a year younger than I. It was a great annoyance to me always to be treated as some big hulking girl when I hit only 5'4" at maturity.
And heck. If you been around here a long time you've seen how I grow on people. They start out loathing me and eventually we're falling on one another's bosoms as the events of the day may require.

Your friend sounds like she never graduated from fifth grade. Either did her sister.
It will perhaps not shock you that her sister was an elementary school teacher and she was briefly a HS teacher and then went on to a long civil service career.
And I have always been the poor dumb one who went wrong early.
Come over here and sit by me.
Just make tender stroking motions from afar and I'll feel 'em.

Had to look up 'kishkes' and was not disappointed.
A little familiarity with Yiddish is good for everyone.
Lmao
Trust me there's zero hilarity. Since Saturday I've been unable to find the words to describe what I'm feeling.
You poor soul
No, I have been throughout the entire course of my life been extraordinarily fortunate in my friendships, and this one has been there for me a few times when I really absolutely needed her. I ain't been hanging on with her from sheer masochistic thrillseeking.
Substack needs a laughing button
When they add this feature, SCA will jump straight to the Top 10 Board.

Me--like you I hated school.

The true glory of the situation is that she voted for Trump in 2016 and I voted for him never.
Too funny!
And to stage a fake assassination they murdered a 20-year-old kid and a certain Trump voter, and risked killing many others in a swing state?
The two of them are still trying to work that all out.
I had no patience to argue further. I'm queasy enough right now, knowing I must make that awful walk to the polling station and trash my integrity etc. etc. etc. Not much more I can handle.
My admiration for your efforts is unbounded! As Yoda might say, the TDS is very strong with some people.
Let me make clear to you my feelings about Trump:

Nice, honest essay. I try, every time I get to thinking I actually know someone in the public eye, to think of O. J. Simpson and John Lennon.

It was definitely staged, for what purpose I can't understand.
Civil war?
The entire event was staged. No one was shot.
Nothing in the narrative adds up.
When has there ever been a Trump Rally that did not
have thousands of people? This was a controlled set with actors and extras.
Yes kid you've solved it.
Peggy Hall lays it logically here.

Absolutely. Sure. Totally nails it. The genius problem-solver we needed.
Let's review the questions and try to make some sense of things.
Why were there so few attendees at a Trump Rally?
Where is the proof of Trump's injuries?
No, absolutely, Peggy is the one, thank God she saw the Masonic hand, that was all the guarantee I needed of her discerning genius.
Did you mention the death and injuries from the тАЬfake assassination?тАЭ
Can you prove that anyone was actually shot?
They're trying to fit those into their theory. Like I said, I cut it short, I ain't got the stomach for it this week.
there has been a few on substack that have written about the set-up. That is insanity.
I refuse to even go there.
I am glad you have friends that you can scold and still be friends with.
It wasn't scolding so much as completely out of patience, after this weekend, and this is a combat-pay grade level friendship. When she's not complaining about her sister to me, the two of them are mocking that I fell into the Dark Web.
Definitely you should come and sit by me. We have a lot in common it seems....
IтАЩd mock them for believing the Russian collusion conspiracy theory and HunterтАЩs laptop. These two sisters would hop on the first train to Crazyville if the conspiracy theorists on their tv told them to do so.
Actually she, who watches many news channels had never heard of the Steele dossier or Hunter's laptop. She was baffled when I mentioned them recently in reference to election interference.
Alternative takes, and fair questions.
