President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Camacho, doing his thing…
Did you see this headline? “Trump Leads in 5 Key States.”
Polls continue to plumb the depths of American idiocy. Which makes me wonder about something. I’m offering this as a serious question, really…
Given the current state of the electorate, would Trump be leading anywhere in the country against President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Camacho? You know, the guy from “Idiocracy“…
It’s worth asking ourselves. My own answer is no, I don’t think he could. Mr. Camacho outdoes Trump on pretty much every quality it takes to win votes in an idiocracy, and the thing is, Camacho has actual muscles in reality, instead of them being an absurdly imagined fantasy like in the flag you see below. I’ve seen those flags at flea markets in recent years. I suppose people buy them to laugh at. That’s the only thing you could do when you regard that fat old man slumbering in the courtroom, and then look at the flag…
But arguments can be made for Trump in this contest. His hair is much weirder, but Camacho’s is fairly wild. And in Camacho’s defense, he is actually firing that automatic weapon, we are to believe. Trump is more an enabler — he wants to free up Putin to machine-gun people. On the other hand, Trump is less articulate, which is a winning quality with the constituency in question. But Camacho…
We could go on.
Like so many things in our current Identity-obsessed culture, the race would likely come down to a matter of race. There are people who would never support Trump who might support Camacho because he’s black. On the other hand, many Trump supporters would rather vote for — excuse my language — a Democrat before they’d support a black man. Not all of them are that way, of course, but a good many are. Remember those people marching in Charlottesville? That incident is what made Joe Biden — remember Joe Biden, that boringly sane man? — decide to run for president before 2020.
Of course, some Trump supporters have been training themselves to accept black people, as long as they kowtow with sufficient humility to all that is evil. They look at Tim Scott, and they tell themselves, “You know, there are some good ones.”
But I’m getting off on an Identity tangent here. I suppose that makes me “modern.”
Back to the original question: Could Trump beat President Camacho? Could anyone? In other words, to what level have we sunk, overall, in every category — intellectual, cultural, and so forth?
If you haven’t seen one of these, you probably haven’t been to a flea market lately.

Texas Governor grants full pardon to Daniel Perry on Thursday after Conservative commentators, including Tucker Carlson, and a number of elected Republicans rallied around Perry and called for Pea full pardon.
Reminder:
Perry murdered Garrett Foster, an Air Force Veteran in 2020. Perry, after posting messages online that he wanted to kill protestors, purposefully drove through a red light into a crowd of protestors in Austin Texas.
Foster, carrying a legal rifle in the open, approached Perry’s driver’s side window. Witnesses testified at trial that Foster never raised his gun. Perry shot Foster through his driver’s side window, killing Foster.
During Perry’s initial police interview, he told police he “thought Foster was going to raise his rifle and shoot him.” he then added “I didn’t want to give him a chance to aim at me”
Perry’s defense team ignored these statements and said Foster was the one that “acted unlawfully” when he pointed his gun at Perry. Multiple witnesses at the trial testified and contracted these defense claims that he pointed or even raised his rifle which was described as being “at his side and pointed down and away from Perry and his car.” Foster’s weapon was found with the safety in the “on” position with no cartridge in the chamber (meaning, he couldn’t have shot anyone even if he was aiming – which witnesses testified he wasn’t doing).
During the trial, prosecutors produced text messages and social media posts where Perry called black people “monkey’s” and admitted to bein a racist, claiming “I am a racist.”
He threatened violence against Black Lives Matters protestors and said he wanted to kill them. Perry also posted social media messages saying “too bad we can’t shoot Muslims” and also called black people “animals at the zoo”. After the trail, prosecutors also admitting to finding messages from Perry where he admitted to searching for underage girls online and that he had been talking sexually to a 16 year old girl. (Conservatives suddenly didn’t care about underage sexual abuse).
Perry also told a friend he wanted to go to Dallas and to shoot people. Messages were produced at trial showing one of Perry’s friend told him not to do that because “the training we received clearly stated you can’t instigate something and claim self defense”
Also at trial, the defense psychologist testified that Perry had various psychological issues and had a “me versus them” personality whereby he was looking “for people to retaliate against given even the smallest threat”
The jury found Perry guilty and he was sentenced to 25 years in jail.
The Pardon board in Texas, each member an appointee of Gov. Abbott, voted unanimously to pardon Perry. (The board is known as a rubber stamp for Perry’s wishes).
Doesn’t Perry’s resume just scream “unjust conviction?” Shows you the extent of political corruption and how corrupt Republicans are.
Justice in our Country is upside down; IMHO, the death throes of an aging, majority white, population.
I listen to Trump whining about how unfair the world is to him. He is a great teacher, teaching others with privilege to “play the victim.”
SMH.
The ironic thing about Trump is he’s the biggest whiner and sorest loser of any politician or human most people have ever seen. The man whines constantly. He whines about everything.
Which is odd because his supporters are always attacking whiners and calling everyone snowflakes. The irony is lost on his cult.
In regards to the pardon for the murderer in Texas, it’s hardly made a blip on the national news.
There are half a dozen people on death row in Texas that are very likely factually innocent. Witnesses have recanted, other people have come forward claiming responsibility for murders- that are till on death row with no pardon- not even another trial.
and the Texas governor and Conservative commentators and politicians ran to this murderer’s aid.
Justice is upside down and is no longer something to be revered.
Oh, it is absolutely to be revered. And the still-sane Americans who continue to revere it need to stand up and defend it from the deranged people who seek to tear it down.
Without an independent judiciary, we have nothing. Without it, we might as well close the doors and announce the end of the United States…
