Without the McMuffin 'Effect'

In 2016, we had Evan McMullin to contend with in the election.  So where did he really matter?

In Utah, he took around 244k votes (roughly 23-percent of the vote).  Trump still won.

In Minnesota, he took 53k votes....helping Hillary edge out Trump.

In Colorado, he took around 1-percent of the votes, but it wasn't a big deal....Hillary had more than enough to win.

So in this 2020 election, the only state where things are probably changed?  Minnesota.  Without him in the middle of this....it's high odds that Trump will take Minnesota. 

Name Games

I noticed yesterday that pressure was being applied to the Texas Ranger baseball team....to rename the team.  Reason?  Actual Texas Rangers are considered racist, if you go by the long, long history, going back to the 1800s.

I sat and pondered over this, and decided....the only thing to do here....rename the team.

My suggestion....Texas Power Rangers.  Yes, rename them after the kid's show series of the mid-1990s. 

I admit....it was a one-star show, but it was never racist, and that's all that matters. Although we should not bring up the 'yellow' Power Ranger....he was a total loser.

'Timmy and Wandas' Big Adventure to Tulsa

After all this Trump announcement was done and I started to look at the map....things kinda clicked.

Tulsa, for those who've never been to it....is a unique place.  I-44 leads west and east, with around six lesser US roads bringing in traffic from Texas, Arkansas, Kansas and Missouri. 

Tulsa also is a place where you can go and look for Antifa folks, and I doubt if you can find more than eight in the entire state. 

So as the Trump campaign rally opens up....I suspect on the roads leading into Tulsa the previous 24 hours....at least 3,000 Antifa guys and gals will be in cars, vans, and buses.....attempting reach the site.

Advance teams of FBI and US marshals?  There's probably 3,000 being brought into various towns around Tulsa. 

So as the peace-mob starts their gimmick and the riot-mob start their gimmick....tens of thousands of cameras will catch the action.  Tusla police, along with state police will go after the riot crew.  As the riot crew leaves town and thinks they are safe....the US marshals will descend upon them on the state roads, the US roads, and the interstate. 

As the arrested folks get dragged into a Tulsa courtroom....two or three charges will be read out, and then bail set, with a local crew handling bail bonds.  As the kid emerges and thinks that things are over?  Well...the fed guys will be there, arrest them on fed warrants, and drag them to the fed courtroom.  You see....crossing statelines to riot....is a fed charge. 

Two separate proceedings.

Timmy and Wanda's parents call for private lawyers, and they start laying out the problems.  You go into the Oklahoma court, and admit guilt....do six months in prison and six years of probation....they can swing this deal easily.  Timmy and Wanda freak out....six months in prison?  Then the lawyers lay out the problem for the fed charge.  The feds will demand a full year of prison time, with probably 3 years of probation....for a 'deal'.  The 'deal' will involve rating out on your associates and the Antifa crew. 

Then the lawyer spells out the real problem.  Even if you accept this deal....this prison times leads to probation.  If you screw up....DUI, assaulting someone at another Antifa team meeting, etc....there's barely a 30-minute session in court, and you go back to prison for the remainder of your time....no excuses.  You have to permanently clean up your life and live cleanly.  Then he mentions the occasional drug test....that you have to pass this each and every time, or you go back to prison.  Even failing on the weed test....gets you back into prison.

So as Timmy and Wanda go for the deal....the next problem pops up.  Both were teachers, and this state/fed conviction now gets brought up by the teacher's union.  They can't be teachers in most states now.  The parents are asking questions and wondering what value their degrees now hold?

Timmy's parents spent $130k for his four years....to include the car, the tuition, the beer money, the $8k legal costs to get him off sexual assault charges, and the room/board money.  All flushed down the toilet.

Wanda's parents paid $30k of their savings for her college, and she borrowed $50k to wrap up the degree.  She'll never make enough money to cover the loan there.

Two losers.....doing prison time.  In a decade, both will look back and wonder about that 2020 adventure and where they screwed up.
