Once again, the Republican majority in Congress is promising that if we continue to dig and dig through the mountains of horse shit they've created, we'll eventually reach the beautiful pony we always wanted.
The first time I recall hearing the theory of trickle-down economics, Ronnie Reagan was in the White House. At the time, I expected he might eventually replace Nixon as the worst president ever, but in the eighties, it was impossible to imagine a fat, psychotic TV reality show host with zero political experience ever winning a national election in the United States. Reagan, a former actor, was as close as we'd ever get to turning the country over to an aging show biz personality with a divorce on his record. At least that's what I thought then.
On the other hand, based on what we've already learned about election tampering, it's quite possible that Ass Lube wasn't elected in the accepted sense of the word. We'll probably never know for sure.
