The Geek's Raven
[An excerpt, with thanks to Marcus Bales]

Once upon a midnight dreary,
fingers cramped and vision bleary,
System manuals piled high and wasted paper on the floor,
Longing for the warmth of bedsheets,
Still I sat there, doing spreadsheets:
Having reached the bottom line,
I took a floppy from the drawer.
Typing with a steady hand, I then invoked the SAVE command
But got instead a reprimand: it read "Abort, Retry, Ignore".

A very real and plausible danger to Donald Trump and the Republicans next year

Although statistically possible this year, it is highly improbable that the Democrats will get the 67 votes in the Senate necessary to themselves, on their own, actually remove Donald Trump or SCOTUS justices entirely on their own, next year. However, as oil prices rise, and the economy weakens, and a stock correction becomes probable, another powerful and dangerous scenario presents itself to the Republicans. It is looking more and more probable that the Democrats could well take House and Senate by solid margins, and, in addition, take the governorships of Texas and Florida, as well as the Texas House of representatives. All of these are well within the realms of reasonable probability, perhaps 50:50 possibilities. Other states may fall to the Democrats as well. Facing solid opposition in both Houses of Congress at the federal level, and having no support base of any significance at the state level anywhere in the entire country, Donald Trump, who has just lost a major war with Iran, possibly the greatest disaster in US military history, will face an historic level of political isolation, both domestically, and internationally. I cannot see how he could possibly govern the country under these circumstances, he would just be an extremely unpopular, eccentric old man. I doubt that he would be tolerated to complete his term of office. #politics #geopolitics #news
