There are several topics that we cats have refused to engage on, because they are 1) Republican concoctions, 2) media malpractice and misdirection, 3) needless Democratic worries, or 4) just plain silly. But they keep popping up in our social media timeline, so it appears we must squash them forever. Here goes:
"The Biden crime family." So ridiculous! And so clearly GOP projection. If there's any family that fits the mobster bill, it's the Trumps. And Republican Congress members who keep bleating about "having proof" about Hunter and Joe keep coming up empty. Ignore them.
"There's gonna be a recession! Or at least, no soft landing." As we've pointed out before, Morgan Stanley begs to differ. So our little lips are zipped on this from now on. Enjoy the strong economy, and remember that no Republican voted for it.
"Trump is going to be able delay or defer justice." Nope. For example, today a Georgia judge — "forcefully," in the words of The New York Times — smacked down Benedict Donald, tossing Trump's bid to keep Fulton County from indicting him on overturning the 2020 election. Next week, another bogus Trump attempt will be heard (and tossed). He keeps losing, and nothing's been delayed. As Fulton County DA Fani Willis told reporters yesterday, she and her team are ready to rumble.
"If Trump keeps getting indicted, his supporters will get violent." MAGAts have certainly gotten violent before. (Capitol Hill police still aren't over it.) And goodness knows they're heavily armed. But we still don't lose any catnaps over it. First of all, Trumpsters are mostly cowards. Second, a lot of them are in jail. But even if they haven't been hauled off to the hoosegow, they might be dead. Thanks, COVID.
"Elon Musk is killing Twitter." Unlike the others, this one seems to take on more weight every day. Musk's latest bizarre attempt to erase the brand is the first time that we've seriously wondered whether we can wait him out. But we haven't left the platform yet. He had to take his stupid "X" off the Twitter building in San Francisco today. Now, if only we could get it off our phone. We cats HISS.
