Plan A and Plan B

Every morning I check the news to see if someone responsible is in charge yet. And all I see is a bunch of stories about Trump. It feels like things could not get any worse, but they almost certainly will. How can they not when the same people that got us into this mess are the ones who are proposing to get us out of it?The GOP does have a strategy. Plan A is to push the deaths out of the news so the markets can rebound. They figure that since most of the dead will be minorities and old people, they're dog bite man stories. People will get sick of them. If people still don't feel like shopping or if white people in red states are also dying, then there's Plan B, which is to postpone the election or disqualify its results. Then they can finish packing the courts, abolish what's left of Obamacare, privatize social security, burn all the coal and gasoline that they want, and end the war on Christmas.I wish I could see things differently, I really do.
