As anyone who has made it past the age of 29 can attest, the passage of time picks up its pace every year that you live after that. I'm at the age where a year ago feels like midway through lunch yesterday.
Except when I start thinking about the last three-and-a-half years and the damage that Joe Biden and his commie handlers have done to this once proud Republic. Pondering when we might be free from the unhinged leftists who are in charge makes time slow to a glacial pace for me.
When the palace coup media machine tweeted that Joe Biden would be leaving the presidential race and endorsing Kamala Harris, I called my good friend and colleague Kevin Downey Jr. and said, "These next four months are going to be the longest ones of our lives."
And there weren't even four months left to go at that time.
On the worst days, the Biden years can feel like the Biden millennium. The litany of things that have gone wrong since that drooling idiot tottered into the Oval Office in 2021 reads like "War and Peace." The Biden alt timeline is made all the more surreal by the fact that there are people in this country who think everything is coming up roses here in the good old U.S. of A.
The "Two Americas" thing is a real slog, too.
Whenever I've had to bide my time during a Democratic administration in the past, I took comfort in the fact that the American electorate was fickle and bored easily. Voters would eventually tire of one party being in power for too long, and that would be that. Those were such simple times.
Now that the Democrats have the keys to the Magic Mail-In Ballot Machine, the specter of one-party rule looms large. We all know that's what they want, too. Not only is there no guarantee of a light at the end of the tunnel, the Democrats are busy trying to dynamite it shut forever. It's a lot to take in.
While, as I said a few paragraphs ago, there are people who think that Biden is just knocking it out of the park, I believe that most of them are political operatives. I've written a lot about the fact that I can't really imagine Joe and Martha Democrat in Flyover, USA, being on board with the weaponization of the Justice Department or boys running on girls' track teams. No matter how much the Beltway Dems want to spin old Joe's miserable record, he and the Missus have cast a pall over the land.
I know that this is a little gloomier than my usual fare. I don't feel this way all of the time. When I do, however, I really feel it, you know? I find it best to write about it and get it out of my system. I highly recommend that every conservative find an outlet like that to help get through the next few months. (If you need a palate cleanser, my "Top O' the Briefing" in Wednesday's Morning Briefing was more optimistic.)
We've got a good shot at getting the Democrats' grubby commie paws off of the Executive Action pen, and Donald Trump is just the man to take it.
If the Dems somehow get Princess Cackles across the finish line, the next sound we'll hear is that dynamite at the end of the tunnel.
