Statues for Jefferson Davis

The One and Only Confederate President (I think — )

What a day! The numbers don’t mislead, do they. I find myself today considering the remote possibility that there will be an awakening in MAGA land. I imagine what might have been if over 4 million Americans hadn’t shown up to make a statement.

Look at what we just missed! Here’s a new take on what to do next. Imagine that the MAGA fever dream became a reality. We could devise a new game: Somebody replaces the Jefferson Davis statue in the Rotunda with honors. A national lottery is established: who will we make a statue of in honor of white supremacy? Let’s see:

1. Newt Gingrich: he kept his promise for a permanent Republican majority?

2. Mitch McConnell: He single-handedly packed the Supreme Court with Leonard Leo’s best suggestions.

3. A symbolic work has been commissioned to honor all those who were worried or concerned about the collapse of Constitutional process. O.K. This was not the Best of Show award, but it was a nice, symbolic try —

4. Rush Limbaugh: It’s not nice to speak ill of the dead, but I hear that RFK Jr. is in charge of a scientific experiment in physical re-animation.

5. I’m sure there are more, but I’m all out of thinking about them.

Sequim, WA has a 2025 population of 8,292.

2,600 of them were lined the main street on both sides between Walmart and Home Depot for two hours yesterday. The perfect place to make a statement.
