For those of you who remember a silver disco ball spinning above your head as you executed the perfect booty pop to the sighs and groans of “Love to Love You,” dressed in your best, non-breathable polyester, well then, you’ll get a kick out of this.

Hell, everyone who isn’t MAGA should get a kick out of this.

We rational folk know that Donald Trump is insane. His cognition has declined to a level that bears serious intervention, but unfortunately, the majority of the Republican Party is like one, big, pussy. You know, like the kind, Herr Trump bragged about grabbing on Access Hollywood.

A couple of days ago, the head MAGGAT rallied in Wisconsin. I watched for a while on the one outlet that depicts his insanity up close and personal. C-Span. (CNN and MSNBC, get in the ballgame, yeah?)

He bounced from one unhinged rant to another. One mendacious declaration in particular got to me. His lie about intending to “save Medicare,” as old people are already taking it up the ass because of crooked Joe’s Bidenomics — the usual bullshit. Lies and more lies.
