Mitch McConnell and alleged President Elect Donald Trump are pitching a hissy fit that the senate should immediately rubber stamp Trump’s political appointments without any question.

The Juanita Jean Time Machine says … oh, really?

Here is the letter that Mitch McConnell sent to Harry Reid regarding hearings on President Obama’s nominees. A demand for full and complete disclosure before any hearing could be SCHEDULED.

Of course, things have changed since 2009.  We don’t have a black president now.

Carl is a friend of the beauty salon who stays pretty quiet most of the time but he sends me heads up and greetings from the far frigid north.  He recently moved to North Carolina to be with his son and to thaw out a little.

He told me about the trip —

As we were traveling down to N.C. stopped in Beckley W Va. This was a couple of days after the election. Over heard at Ruby Tuesday’s, locals wearing ball caps while eating. Male diner said a friend of his called from TX, saying Trump was already hiring people to build wall. Another young guy said, They were starting to call miners from the coal mines back to work..

While at the DMV a lady was signing up to get voters ID card. When asked party preference She responded Trump..

We laughed.

Wouldn’t it be fun to go back in about a year and ask where the coal and the wall are?

One day after receiving damning intelligence reports of direct and intentional espionage against the United States, Cheeto Jesus called for closer relations with Russia and that those who opposed are “stupid” and “fools”.  When Putin hands His Orangeness his own ass on a platter, we’ll know both the fool and the stupid.

We here at The World’s Most Dangerous Beauty Salon, Inc. are nothing if we’re not an ideas factory.

So, the problem is that Trump is so anxious to build that damn wall that he doesn’t have time to make Mexico pay.  So he says we should pay and then Mexico will reimburse us.

I’m not comfortable with that.  However, I am comfortable with …

We should take advantage of having a fabulously wealthy President. He’s the one who wants the wall.  So, I say Trump should pay for the wall and let Mexico pay him back.

It’ll work, I tell you.

One of my favorite Texas news guys is Joe Holley, who can spin a yarn into a dandy memory.  And he also has the best hair of all the news guys in Texas.

This morning, Joe turned on a light bulb in my head.  He compares Donald Trump’s election to Pappy Lee O’Daniel, a Texas Governor who has been memorialized in the Coen brother’s O Brother, Where Art Thou?

Pappy was a radio personality who had never voted before he was elected governor. Hell, he hadn’t paid his poll tax so he couldn’t even vote for himself.  He ran for governor to advertise his flour, and he got elected.

So, if you’re looking to grin, let Joe lead the way.

And, just because I like you so much, here’s one of Pappy’s campaign songs.

Put up or shut up.

Fish or cut bait.

Honey, if you want to run with the big dogs, you gotta get out from under the porch.

It looks like the repeal of Obamacare is gonna stall in the Senate. Rand Paul, Bob Corker, Tom Cotton, and Susan Collins are saying “No, not until we have another plan,” and a fifth senator, Lisa Murkowski is raising her eyebrows.  The Republican Senator from Nevada, Dean Heller, has got to be nervous because Hillary won his state and Obamacare is very popular there 53/46.

And guess who is having a little fun with this?

Next you’ll hear the sound of roaring silence.

They’ve had 8 years to come up with a plan. I seriously doubt they are going to do it in 20 days.
