Visits

There was a news piece out there today, which discussed Jane Fonda.....on some political trip to Pennsylvania.....where she was out in various neighborhoods....knocking on doors, and trying to convince 'confused' folks why they should not vote for Donald Trump.

She's around 81 years old, and the way the article was written up.....I got the impression that she probably visited at least ten houses.

I tried to imagine a trip like this....to Alabama, and on some hot Saturday afternoon....pulling up to my brother's farm and wanting to sit there in the carport to talk to him over his 'confusion'.

He would have been Alabama 'charming' and made up a pitcher of ice tea (the cheap but decent stuff from Piggly Wiggly), with a freshly squeezed lemon and crushed ice.  He might have offered her the rocker, if it were functional....otherwise, she'd have to sit on the Wal-Mart garden furniture.

Then he would have instructed the dog (Dolly) not to growl much at her, and comforted Ms Fonda that it's more of a grin and laugh....than a growl. 

So this chat would have started up and she would give him the 5x8 card list of reasons why Trump is evil and you should convert over. 

He would have asked at this point if Baptist Church folks got her (Ms Fonda) up to this, or maybe some cousin.  She would have assured him that it was totally at random that they pulled his name out of the hat.

Along about twelve minutes into this visit....he would have said that he felt she was more confused that he was.  Then he would have launched into a eight-minute piece on why Trump was 50-percent Clint Eastwood, 50-percent Ronald Reagan, and 50-percent Bear Bryant.  At the conclusion of this...Ms Fonda would have been overcome and almost weeping....she'd been converted over to Trump.

The problem here....is that these idiots never seem to visit the right house.
