President for Life

As of today, it doesn't take much of a prophet to foresee that sexual miscreant Brett Kavanaugh will be confirmed as a justice on the Supreme Court.  It's a case in point that proves the rightness of women's accusations against men in every other avenue of American life can be canceled out when the subject comes to politics.  The accusations against Kavanaugh by credible women in an open forum should have been enough to bury his nomination.  And his wild, undisciplined anger in response to the accusations proves he doesn't have the controlled presence of mind to be judicious enough to assume a seat on the court.

But he will.

Of course he is supported by the Trump-man himself whose record as a vulgar womanizer did not keep him from subverting the will of the people in the 2016 election, which he lost by a whopping three million votes--and still became president.  These are strange times when women's rights are being upheld and advanced in every corner of American life except partisan politics, where the old boys-will-be-boys defense hangs on as though it were still 1960.

One other prophecy while I'm looking into the crystal ball:  If some kind of magic keeps anti-Trump voters out of the voting booths in 2020, and if the moron president should thereby win a second term, he will begin early in that term to repeal the Twenty-Second Amendment which restricts presidents to two terms.  He will try to become President for Life, a modern-day Roman Emperor.  You wait and see.
