Day by day this illegitimate regime overplays its hand and I’m reminded of the online poker idiocy I have witnessed.
One classic, which came a few years back while I was playing Texas hold’em, had me possessing a pair of aces in my two-card starting hand, the absolute best beginning. I bet it hard. My moron opponent re-raised me and we got all-in.
For those unfamiliar with the game, after the initial betting round, three cards are flopped face up on the table. A fourth card is turned over and, then a fifth. Each player makes his or her best five-card hand using any combination of their two hole cards and common cards face up on the table.
It turns out my idiot opponent had 2-7, generally considered the absolute worst starting hand. Luck being the fickle thing that it is, this moron flopped a 2 and a 7 for two pair and held up to win.
Afterward, the chucklehead actually rationalized the play noting the 2-7 hand had six outs to improve (the three remaining 2 cards in the deck and three remaining 7s), while I had only two remaining aces.
This rationale neatly ignores that I didn’t necessarily need to hit of my outs since I’m already light years ahead and the 2-7 hand needs to hit at least two out of its six outs to win.
Back to politics, you have to wonder why the Sleepy Joe crowd felt moved to claim grateful Americans should celebrate a supposed savings of 16 cents on a July 4 barbecue over the previous year, when the hated Donald Trump was in office.
Even if that was the case, and judging by rocketing food prices, I find it doubtful, it neatly ignores inflation in housing, energy, healthcare, education, etc., etc., etc., any one of which more than wipes out that alleged 16-cent savings.
Why call attention to such things, unless you are confident your constituency is composed of morons?
The overplaying of a hand is readily apparent in the browbeating to get people to take those COVID-19 vaccines, the ones provided by drug companies who rushed to put them out and as a reward received immunity from legal action should they end up killing people.
Between recent Biden delusional ramblings, such as asking a greeting line what he was doing there, our puppet president takes every opportunity to stress getting jabbed is the most patriotic thing an American can do.
Imagine how this will be portrayed down the line, when the Woke crowd has erased true American heroism such as storming the beaches of France on D-Day and turning the tide in World War II. That used to be widely regarded as our greatest generation, but in the not-too-distant future, showing papers that you were a good little sheep and got the jab will mark you was a hero.
Speaking of papers, promises by Biden and his mouthpieces that in the near future the government will be coming door-to-door to deal with those who are not vaccinated conjures up images of thugs wearing armbands and jackboots demanding our (vaccination) papers.
But maybe there is hope. Biden went on the internet to preach the need to be vaccinated and a not-so-grand total of fewer than 20,000 joined the livestream. This from a guy alleged to have polled more than 81 million votes.
Meanwhile, Trump, the man supposedly beaten in that election by Biden, drew more than twice that number at a live rally in Florida, even as an additional 375,000 watched the event online.
This all makes sense only if you’re drinking the liberal-socialist Kool-Aid. Otherwise, it’s about as rational as getting all-in preflop with 2-7 and hoping to get lucky.
