A Landscape Service for All the Right Reasons?

I'm not, by any stretch of the imagination, a "Suzy Silverlinings", so in the wide-branched tree of my heart, a heavy little bird still sits, cooing over the ways the evil clowns are going to steal my joy. In the meanwhile, they are evil, but they are still clowns, so I might as well laugh at them. And Rudybot throwing a cog at the idea that the networks are calling the election (over the vote totals for Biden being more favorable) before the courts get involved (because so far, they've been throwing out the weaksauce arguments from Team Trump left and right) is pretty on target.

He's in front of the Four Seasons Total Landscape building because, depending on who you ask, it was either in a NE Philly neighborhood where the singing and dancing of happy Democratic voters were unlikely to intrude (situated between the Fantasy Island sex shop, where the patrons are quiet out of habit, and the crematorium, where the patrons are quiet by nature) or Trump wanted the upscale Four Seasons hotel, but couldn't book it. Either reason is hilarious. 

That the campaign still has Giuliani front and center, after peddling dodgy laptops and tucking in his pants on an international moviefilm also resounds with the plop! plop! of massive clown shoes. 

But those clown shoes are still beating the bushes to find better legal counsel and retire the massive campaign debts amongst the faithful, and while I don't see a lot of sense in the legal part of this endeavor, I still see among some of the GOP stalwarts a lot of faith and a willingness to go on tv and do a career-defying high wire act asserting nonexistent fraud and so on--for these clowns

It's either because they cannot grasp that all these people, in Atlanta, Detroit, New York, Philadelphia, and Washington D.C., dancing in the streets, quite legitimately voted against their viciously dumb Trump ticket, or, the part that chills me, they just don't care.

(Because some people do not have voting rights that the GOP feels bound to respect, one hardly needs to add., but I will, for emphasis.)

I'm not ready to dance, exactly. But when Trump is gone, you better believe I'm going to sing.
