#176. RINO

The Orange Prolapse might have the reading and writing skills of a 5th grade dullard.  But there does exist subject matter that he's familiar with.  Branding.  Marketing.  Promotion.  Everything's a shiny object.  Everything's a catch phrase.  Build the wall, Chinavirus, MAGA, KAG,  etc.

It's not a policy matter of insight or brilliance.  It's all just repetition to the point of utter exhaustion.  Rinse, wash, repeat.  Keep it simple stupid.   

Though ya gotta give Trump credit I suppose.  He has taken the entire concept of televangelism and injected it with political steroids.  There's even a word for it (which doesn't exist) --- "polivangelism."  Until Trump came along, conventional wisdom had always been that if you tried to use the faith healer template in the world of high stakes politics... you'd likely be exposed as a fraud and immediately terminated. 

Personally, I'd like to see other billionaires get in the act.  Only in America, would people be willing to embrace the notion of "billionaire beggars."  Hmm, might make for a good tv series.

For the past 4 years, we heard a perpetual refrain.  Democrats are liberal, radical, horrible, nasty, dangerous, evil.  But now, Trump's attention has shifted away from the enemy across the aisle.  He's solely focused on grift.  Gotta extract every last penny from the Republican party.  And that means every potential donor.  Translation: Prolapse L'Orange will now be demonizing every single element of the Republican party that refuses to pledge absolute blind obedience to his exposed colon... but without going overboard.  Note: In Trumpland, what constitutes"going overboard" is very much open to debate. 

So Trump recently learned of a new word.  RINO.  And naturally, he'll be using it ad nauseum.  The American public will be hearing the word "RINO" (Republicans In Name Only) til death do us part.  Give all your money directly to Trump and his Save America PAC.  Silly Mitch.  I'm sure he never saw it coming.  Yeah, right.     


Anyhoo, since we're going to be hearing about RINOS ceaselessly for the next two years leading up to the midterm, I thought it was deserving of a song.   And who better than the soothing crooner Lionel Richie to usher in this new era of polivangelism.

I’ll spam your inbox til the end of time
A billionaire who begs and tweets is not a crime
Republicans are money grubbing whores
RINO, I’m here to settle the score

And I hope that you will die, and I hope out takes a while.
The RNC is haunted and in you I will confide
'Cause it’s all a game we play, in an attempt to screw you
And if you don’t give me enough, well fuck you

I hate to play the game of truth or dare
And shed some needed light on those I wished despair
Sometimes I plant the seeds that you will sow
RINO, you’ve become my deadly foe

'Cause the money from afar, is the money I could use
And you judging me as homely out of the whole CPAC crew
I’d pay cash to smell my farts, take some money from a Jew
And I’m not through complaining, Well fuck you

RINO, I’m here to settle the score

'Cause the money from afar, is the money I could use
And you judging me as homely out of the whole CPAC crew
I’d pay cash to smell my farts, take some money from a Jew
And I’m not through complaining, Well fuck you
Well fuck you
Well fuck you

I am Trump and so hardcore
RINO, I am Trump and so hardcore

'Cause the money from afar, is the money I could use
And you judging me as homely out of the whole CPAC crew
I’d pay cash to smell my farts, take some money from a Jew
And I’m not through complaining, Well fuck you
Well fuck you
Well fuck you

RINO, I am Trump and so hardcore
I am Trump, I am Trump, I am Trump
I am Trump and so hardcore
I am Trump, I am Trump


Hello
Lionel Richie

I've been alone with you inside my mind
And in my dreams I've kissed your lips a thousand times
I sometimes see you pass outside my door
Hello, is it me you're looking for?

I can see it in your eyes, I can see it in your smile
You're all I've ever wanted and my arms are open wide
'Cause you know just what to say, and you know just what to do
And I want to tell you so much, I love you

I long to see the sunlight in your hair
And tell you time and time again how much I care
Sometimes I feel my heart will overflow
Hello, I've just got to let you know

'Cause I wonder where you are and I wonder what you do
Are you somewhere feeling lonely or is someone loving you?
Tell me how to win your heart, for I haven't got a clue
But let me start by saying, I love you

Hello, is it me you're looking for?

'Cause I wonder where you are and I wonder what you do
Are you somewhere feeling lonely or is someone loving you?
Tell me how to win your heart, for I haven't got a clue
But let me start by saying, I love you
I love you
I love you

Is it me you're looking for?
Hello, is it me you're looking for?

'Cause I wonder where you are and I wonder what you do
Are you somewhere feeling lonely or is someone loving you?
Tell me how to win your heart, for I haven't got a clue
But let me start by saying, I love you
I love you
I love you

Hello, is it me you're looking for?
Is it me, is it me, is it me
Is it me you're looking for?
Is it me, is it me


Never seen Lionel Richie in concert.  Will I?  Doubtful.  Would I?  Solid maybe.  

My friend Le Biz has an eerily similar face to that of Lionel Richie's daughter Nicole.

Please do not share this information with former President Donald Trump, Lionel Richie, Nicole Richie and/or Le Biz.
