It feels like a weight has been lifted today and my faith in humanity restored (to a small degree at least). I’ve been walking round a wet and windy park listening to the news and grinning like an idiot. It really does feel like a spell has been broken and the World is waking up from a bad dream.
The Orange Shit Factory’s ALL CAPS TWEETS are increasingly looking like the mad ramblings of someone that’s lost the plot, and I’m looking forward to seeing reality start to bite lumps out of him in the coming months. Once he’s lost immunity from prosecution the FBI and IRS will be circling, and Twitter will no longer have to give him special treatment, so he’ll lose the ability to gaslight his followers with unsubstantiated bullshit.
Whether Biden will prove to be an effective leader — or even, given the ongoing risk of Covid not to mention old age — lasts the next four years is yet to be seen. He’s not been voted in due to his charisma or by offering compelling policies – just simply that he’s not Trump. I’m more excited to see what Kamala Harris offers as a potential future (whisper it quietly in case the mid-west start spontaneously combusting) female President.
