Now that RBG is safely in the ground, or at least will be by day's end, stock up on popcorn and settle in for some fun TV. Tomorrow night the first presidential debate between you-know-who and you-know-who promises to be a combination laugh riot and horror show. And if Joe doesn't cancel because a co-worker of his neighbor's sister-in-law tested positive for COVID, there will be two more of them in the coming weeks.
Then on October 12, three days of the Senate grilling, I mean hearing, of Supreme Court nominee Amy Barrett promises fireworks. Every lowly reporter hoping to make it big and all the worker bees on Capitol Hill are right now scurrying around in search of a few crumbs they can mash together into some sort of tasty cake, or at least a muffin, proving bad behavior in Barrett's past. Good luck with that, I say, since I saw her acceptance speech at the White House last Saturday and it's hard to believe she has ever committed a wrong of any kind.
I mean really. She has five kids of her own and still adopted two black children from Haiti, so clearly she can't be a racist. One of her kids has Down's syndrome, so she's all about being inclusive. Every one of her former bosses swears she was the best person that ever worked for them. One of her law school professors remembers her as the best student he ever had. Oh yeah -- she graduated first in her law school class and was editor of the Law Review. Plus, she's happily married. And she's only 48!
On the other hand, she is Catholic and a true believer. That's about all they've got to work with, but they'd better tread lightly since Joe Biden is also Catholic. So are 70,412, 021 other Americans at last count in 2016.

Oh, there already pulling out the "Hand Maids Tale" bs, claiming her and her husband were involved in some type of crap like that back in the day.
