If you went into cryogenic sleep, oh let’s say, in the mid-seventies when Watergate was going on and upon waking, your first thought was, “Whatever happened to the Republican party?” you would probably be surprised to learn that things in fact got much worse for them post-Nixon. “How could that be?” you would stammer.

Well, the fact that the Speaker of the GOP-led House is a complete neophyte who was thrust into the Speaker’s chair by an overtired and overwhelmed caucus who finally realized just how stupid it was to knife Kevin McCarthy, would tend to prove that you couldn’t expect much leadership there. And the fact that the Senate Minority Leader, good ole Mitch McConnell has been given to zoning out in public, staring into space until his aides come to lead him away, would make you think there wasn’t much leadership there, either. So by that time you would be asking the nurse, “What about the GOP standard bearer, the frontrunner for the 2024 ticket? This is an election year, right?” And she would then tell you, “Oh, he’s an Adderall addict and we’re all waiting for him to collapse.”

These are the images that you would see on our latest invention Social Media, Visitor From The Past. “HOW DID THE GOP GET THIS WAY!?” you would scream, as they rolled up your sleeve to give you Thorazine, once again. “Didn’t they have anybody else that was half-assed decent, at least!?” Well, they had the B-movie star, and then they had his VP for one term, and then they had the VP’s lackluster son, the one they called Dubya. But basically they’ve been waiting for the second coming of the B-movie star and the closest they could get, after Mitt Romney washed out at bat, was a TV game show host, who had been fantasizing publicly about running for president for decades.

“THAT’S IMPOSSIBLE!!!” you would scream, Visitor From The Past, as you were being transferred down to the violent ward. And we would not blame you. Not one of us. We’ve been awake this entire time, watching it all unfold scene by scene, day by miserable day, unbelievable moment by unbelievable moment and we don’t believe it’s happening, either. Our jaws are dropped open as much as yours.

But alas, this is what it is. This is the best that the GOP has to offer in 2024, this addlepated Adderall addict, with a sprayed-on tan, floofy hair sprayed into a helmet and diapers. We marvel as you do, Visitor. And the only other thing we can share is that the Iowa Caucus is in four days from today and it is anticipated that they will resoundingly nominate Donald Trump. There could be an upset, of course, and it could be Ron DeSantis having his brief moment in the sun before Trump eclipses him entirely, but that’s the way things are slated to go down mid-afternoon of January 11.

So hang onto your gurney and endure, just like the rest of us, Visitor. And we want you to know, every time you see Adderall trending, this is why.

  1. basically a speed freak just exists in a world not unlike a bee buzzing around all day bopping from flower to flower and no thoughts in between. won’t even go into what he does back at the hive…

  2. A doped-up, smelly, lying, crooked, traitorous, rapist pedophile is the GOP hero and dear leader. How can one man check-off so many boxes? Well, being a racist kind of helps in Trump’s case as he would have never gotten close to the White House but for that box and thus could not have been an insurrectionist.

  3. Dear Visitor:
    We figured the media,would keep.A close eye on Nixon. They did their job. Wall to wall.coverage of the Watergate hearings,,which had some courageous honorable Republicans on the committee. They forced him to resign for the good of the country try as well.as the party. He resigned.
    The current crop of Republicans are neither honorable nor courageous. Goid of the country try.”Climate change isn’t real.” Good of the party? “Let’s re-elect Darth Dumbass. He’ll sign anything we pass, including firing squads for any Dem who votes,against legislation creating Evangelical Christianity as a national religion, lowering taxes,to $0 for billionaires and corporations, and allowing only white male Christians to vote.”

    • It didn’t help that journalists and people in-the-know kept their knowledge of the depth of trumps depravity secret until they could get their book printed so they could profit from it — instead of revealing the truth at the time when it would have made a difference.

  4. I just finished reading Gone With The Wind…1448 pages. The movie pales in comparison. Frump would have made a great carpetbagger…oh wait…he is one…along with many other evil traits.
