Today is the day that the intellectual wing of the Republican Party, a group more commonly known as "Q-Anon," has prophesied that their Messiah, the man who was President before the job was stolen from him, will once again be sworn in as our nation's leader. The Q folks are a little vague on how the job was stolen, and they aren't real clear on how their deposed leader will even get to Washington, DC, much less how he will manage to get through security and enter the White House and make his way to the Oval Office.
But with crackpots, hope springs eternal. They just believe it will happen.
Belief is good for the economy. That former President leases a government building close to the White House which he and his family have turned into a hotel. That hotel has raised it rates - tripled them, actually - in anticipation that the rubes may come to Washington, DC, this week in order to watch their diapered messiah return to power.
And if a mysterious inauguration is not enough to fill all of those hotel rooms, why not mix in the drama of a possible second insurrection? Yesterday Capitol Police warned Congress of a "possible plot to breach the Capitol by an identified militia group being planned for Thursday, March 4th."
Yikes, that's today!
Maybe that last guy plans on rushing into the White House and barricading himself in the Oval Office while everyone is busy protecting the Capitol. It may seem far-fetched, but remember, it comes from the minds of people who. believe secret Jewish long-range lasers started the California wild fires!
A century ago our nation was entering a period of national rejuvenation following a worldwide pandemic and catastrophic world war, a time that became known as "the roaring twenties." A hundred years later we are again coming out of a worldwide pandemic and a prolonged period of international wars, but our national spirit is splintered and chaotic. History may well remember the period we are now entering as the "insane twenties."
In fact, we'll be lucky if that's all they call it.
So break out those tinfoil hats, pop that corn, and grab the remote. It's going to be another one of those days!
