Diary Update : Is Ted Cruz (once“Lying Ted”) now in plenty of trouble?

The immediate background to this blog piece is This Hannukah Message from Rabbi Avraham Ben Yaakov.

These his crucial words that are of most relevance here:

“The outcome of the impending Supreme Court appeal against election malpractice will show whether the judges have the mettle to stand up for the truth or whether they will decide (perhaps under intense pressure from hidden swamp forces) to throw America to the dogs.”

 So, I ask, is Ted Cruz (once “Lyin’Ted”) now in plenty of trouble?

“Lying Ted “

Yes or no?  It’s a question that invites a reasonable answer. I reason thus: When Baby Bush beat Al Gore at the Supreme Court it was about a tiny issue of election fraud, voting machines making non-human errors, much like Trump’s case which is on a much vaster scale since in his case it’s about massive, widespread, nationwide election fraud, the in absentia dead rising from their graves and voting, even ghosts voting and thus robbing President Trump of his second term dream.

“I’m as pale as a ghost

Holding a blossom on a stem

You ever seen a ghost? No

But you've heard of them” (Spirit on the Water)

You know that Trump has said that he doesn’t like losers. If this is true then is it possible that he doesn't like Ted Cruz anymore, and that Cruz could now be out of favour because he became a loser, and perhaps he under-performed because he probably didn’t have enough time to prepare his case properly and therefore didn’t and couldn’t argue his case forcefully enough and that’s why he got a short but firm and resounding NO from 9 out of 9 of the SCOTUS? If SCOTUS had said YES, then of a surety Trump would have kicked Barr in the big butt (“You’re fired!”) and appointed his most wonderful & most beautiful Ted Cruz as the next Minister of Justice for his second term as President of the United States.

Bush won because he had a better lawyer. Period. It was the most exciting court proceeding that I have ever followed, much more exciting than the trial of O.J. Simpson for example, and I have followed many court proceedings, but the Bush v Gore takes the biscuit. It got to the point where Bush’s lawyer made some extenuating forays into that special twilight zone known as “interpreting the holy US Constitution” - intuiting the intentions of its authors, its Founding Fathers. It was of course intellectually challenging for all concerned, especially those most directly to be affected; Ted Olson's expositions were thrilling and the result of those efforts must have been extremely satisfying and rewarding to his client George W. Bush Jnr., the former Republican President who has now deserted his fellow Republican Donald J. Trump, in Trump’s hour of need. It’s the kind of desertion which I suppose causes the true Christian to sing like Bob Dylan (before reverting posthaste to the true Hebrew Faith)

I believe in you even though I be outnumbered

Oh, though the earth may shake me

Oh, though my friends forsake me…” (I Believe in You)

 The latest thing I’ve seen coming from the White House is the message that begins, “The First Lady and I send our warmest greetings to the millions of Jewish people in the United States and around the world…

Everybody is wondering, how is Mister President going to react to his election petition being squashed/tossed out by the Supreme Court?

One of Trump’s most ardent/fanatical of Nigerian supporters by the name of Femi Fani-Kayode seen expatiating here about “The challenge of Islamic fundamentalism in Nigeria” had this to say, just a few days ago: "By the Power of God, Trump will be sworn in as US President next year"

"And don’t speak too soon

For the wheel’s still in spin

And there’s no tellin’ who that it’s namin’

For the loser now will be later to win

For the times they are a-changin’…

The line it is drawn

The curse it is cast

The slow one now

Will later be fast

As the present now

Will later be past

The order is rapidly fadin’

And the first one now will later be last

For the times they are a-changin’ (The Times They Are A-Changin’)

Today, Fani-Kayode is one of many pro-Trump prophets, pseudo prophets and outright charlatans /fake prophets in despair. Some of the other prophets have been put to shame, some of their words washed down the drain.

For some of those in despair, “There’s nothing serious in reality – all is but toys”

 As in, “And the princess and the prince discussed, what’s real and what is not “. In these days of fake news, “The Prince” in this case being the good news presidential Gospel according to one Nicolo Machiavelli.

 Exactly as the Holy Rabbi in Jerusalem said, “The outcome of the impending Supreme Court appeal against election malpractice will show whether the judges have the mettle to stand up for the truth or whether they will decide (perhaps under intense pressure from hidden swamp forces) to throw America to the dogs.”

Sometimes, people, even judges can do the opposite of what is expected of them:

“Well, I set my monkey on the log

And ordered him to do the Dog

He wagged his tail and shook his head

And he went and did the Cat instead

He’s a weird monkey, very funky” (I Shall Be Free No. 10)

Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is Heaven.

The folks over at CNN (Clinton National Network” are jollificating. For them it's jollification time. I have never seen Don Lemon, a probable distant relative of the late “Some Like It Hot” Jack Lemmon, never seen the CNN's Don looking so positively happy. Over-joyed. He was beaming (quite trite) his face shining, all lit up like the 150-megawatt bulb hanging on a Christmas tree and this is what he and the other three, Anderson Cooper and Chris Cuomo are jollificating and pontificating about: At least someone in the White House must be defecating, right now

As for me (who cares?) I’m sad. I’m mourning my dearly departed friend Willy Ekwe.

I am also feeling quite morose. Sad and morose, as morose as a moron, the one referred to by Pope when he was only twenty-three years old:

“Some are bewilder'd in the maze of schools,

And some made coxcombs Nature meant but fools.”

I'm in such a state at the moment
