Even though the polls, of late, are starting to show a trend towards Biden, there is still a possibility that come November Republicans will have the presidency the Senate and the house. When Trump took over, in 2016, Paul Ryan with speaker, Mitch McConnell was senate leader, and Trump‘s cabinet had people who were not yes men or women. This time around, Josh Hawley could be Senate leader, Mike Johnson, or someone more extreme right, will be the speaker and Trump’s cabinet will be completely composed of yes, men and women. Trump will have no guard rails whatsoever. Trump has already vowed revenge on his political opponents. He has threatened to throw them in jail. There will be camps for migrants that he deems should not be in the states. He will imitate his heroes, particularly, Putin of Russia. This is a given, folks. No two ways around it.

By the way, game seven between the Oilers and the Panthers for the Stanley Cup is tomorrow night. I had promised to make this an Oilers chirp today, butI needed to pass on the dose of reality.
