A Dark Day of Nothing

I hate to be cynical, but what exactly is there to be excited about when the clueless pundits get up on their little hind legs and bark about "the worst hour of Donald Trump's presidency" or "Donald Trump's nightmare news day" or even "a dark day for Trump"? How does this translate to staunching the bleeding of Lady Liberty on the courthouse steps? How does this present the roadmap to excising the festering boil of authoritarian nincompoops infesting our republic? A couple of pathetic excuses for criminal masterminds are going to jail, maybe.

Does that somehow reunite refugee children with their parents? Does this horrible day for Doughfacedonny somehow put some stolen tax revenue back in the treasury? Does it get Kavanaugh out of consideration for the Supreme Court? For that matter, does it undo the stolen Supreme Court seat currently occupied by Gorsuch?

Are we so hard up for victories that Cohen and Manafort finally, maybe, possibly, exiting stage right qualifies as one? There have been so many false dawns, so many first dominoes falling on this criminal conspiracy occupying the Executive Branch that I've lost count. Doughfacedonny is so goddamn oily that nothing makes a dent. Scandal after scandal, screwup after screwup, blatant cruelty, openly flouted racism, and utter incompetence has racked up for almost two years; what is there to show for it?

I just don't see the roadmap for prying these fuckers out of office.
