Who Will the Dumbasses Blame After Trump 2.0 Proves Much Worse than Trump 1.0?

I reached out to Vermont-based Coven today for help with a banishing spell.

I am giving you a fair warning: I am drinking a well-poured glass of perfectly-chilled dry rose (I couldn’t find the accent for the e) as I write this. I take responsibility only for about half of this article. The rest is, you know, c’est la vie meets whatever/shit happens. A rare combination of emotions descended upon me today when I read the results of a New York Times poll: Trump is leading Biden in five swing states, and Biden’s support among young voters and Blacks and Hispanics is eroding.

I don’t know how to handle such reports. When I read things like how more Americans think Trump will change the country for the better, I wonder if maybe I am actually not awake but in a funky, dreamy, altered state. The years 2017 to 2021, including January 6th, never really happened. Sane Americans, people who even voted for Biden in 2020, are now declaring Trump their choice because they feel Biden has failed to get anything done.

Um, what?!

They complain that he hasn’t been bipartisan enough and too devoted to the “hard left.” These opinions are right-wing news soundbites and nothing more, and yet, these are voters…
