A bit corny by now, but that's the phrase which came to mind when Donald Trump complained last week, quite accurately by the way, that America has become a garbage can, a dumping ground for the world.
Democrats, of course, reacted instantly to rebuff and feign utter anger and horror over his comments, obviously in no mood to admit their own involvement in filling the national garbage can with international criminals and millions of those merely and illegally searching for a better life on taxpayers' paid welfare, whilst the economic situation for the average American working man and woman worsened. And worsens.
Just how does one empty the national garbage can? Freedom of speech would help, if we could just keep the political left's hands of censorship and authoritarianism off the Internet. Ridding the country of "anchor babies," whose only claim to instant citizenship is their birth in this country, would be another garbage-out factor, and if the mainstream media would ever come around and report the illegal alien story fairly, emphasizing the millions who reside in the USA against our laws, that would be a welcome bonus.
Our domestic garbage can is stuffed with much more than criminal border-jumpers and bad decisions, for its sides are also bursting with attempts to subvert constitutional law. There is, as well, a load of detritus which crumbled from the electoral system and needed sweeping up when Joe Biden was toppled in whatever manner and Kamala Harris emerged with not one single delegate having had an opportunity to vote at the DNC convention.
The United Garbage Can States of America overflow with the raw sewage of politically directed censorship regarding the dangers of ill-advised Covid immunizations, and human-caused "climate change" propaganda continues to escape the can unabated, intended to scare the hell out of every uninformed person in the USA and throughout the world.
Garbage can what?
The great thing about garbage cans is the necessity for their contents to be dumped out eventually, often followed by a good internal cleaning where the hosing is directed toward the can, not at the person next to it. Americans have been hosed enough and the world laughs at our dilemma as elections near a climactic end.
Happy Halloween? We can't think of anything more frightening than both the domestic and international terrorism currently subjecting innocent people to the whim of dictators and incompetent leadership. We hope voters will choose wisely this time around -- though they did not previously -- to at least attempt a return to a rational society.
Meanwhile, over at "X" we suspect Halloween will be celebrated in the format of trick or "tweet."
