"May you live in interesting times..."
is an old saying. It's not a wish for your future happiness. It's an insult, put in the very nicest of ways. I'ts a snide, sarcastic wish. It's sort of like "You don't sweat much for a fat girl." Or, "Be sure to write when you find meaningful work." It's nasty made nice(er).
It's normally attributed to the Arabs, who have so many famously snide commentaries to offer. But it's actually Olde English. But from wherever it comes, it desires for you a less than ideal future. One filled with all sorts of angst and anxiety and agony of what might be.
And just about half of America believes we are all living in those "interesting times" right now.
The Democrats all want boys to compete against girls in their sporting events. The Republicans are all feasting on hundreds of Executive Orders pouring out of the normally Democrat White House. Since they couldn't assassinate him, The Donald is now running things. He's like the Energizer Bunny, spewing forth marching orders at warp speed.
Elon Musk has been helping us ferret out and then eliminate waste, fraud and abuse in our Gubmint. For free. Taking time away from his own businesses. Which has cost him about $26 Billion Dollars so far. And to thank him for his efforts, normally "Save the Planet!" Leftists are burning down Teslas, to include the dealerships.
Conservatives believe that pretending to be a woman when you're a man, is evidence of mental instability. Liberals seem to believe that transgenderism is not only "normal," it's to be applauded!
Not a peep out of our "MainStreamMedia" over the four years O'Biden had opened our Southern Border. Not a peep as 11 or 13 or 16 or 21 Million Illegal Aliens poured across. Then given a cell phone, a doctor, a lawyer, food, clothing and a plane/train/bus ticket to anywhere. Paid under the table by the American Taxpayer. Except they didn't know it. Trump did.
So Trump's clamped down the Border, real tight. Inside a month he choked off illegal immigration by 98%. Which O'Biden told us he couldn't do.
And boy, his turning off the tap pissed off some waaaay Left folks! They even want to reimport an illegal alien who we deported - for the third time - back to his home country of El Salvador. But the Democrats want him back. They love him. He's a "Maryland father."
Even though he's an MS-13 gang leader and accused wife beater and suspected human traffiker, with 17 appearances before our immigration courts, and ordered deported to any country other than El Salvador, the Democrats want him back. They are smitten with him.
Huh?
Somebody shoots us a school and it's the gun's fault. And within a nanosecond some Democrat will be calling for confiscation of AR-15's. No matter what weapon was used in the shooting.
Our POTUS has chosen to unilaterally change our entire economic system. He thinks that us giving money to every country on Earth ought to stop. And that it's high time they start giving money to us. And he's assembled a Team he thinks will help him do so. While half of America believes he's a scoundrel and a felon and a thief and a fool, deserving of zero support by anyone, and that he's single-handedly destroying the United States. Put simply, they hate the ground he walks on...
Like I said, "may we live in interesting times." And dayummm! These times sure are interesting!
