We’ve all been there. Whether at a donut shop or grabbing a rental car there is a universal experience in which the system does not work and the transaction collapses.
I went in to a donut place once and ordered a donut, a coffee and an orange juice. The staff was shouting at each other, the orange juice was “in the back” and for some reason the coffee wasn’t happening, wasn’t happening and then finally didn’t happen.
I left with nothing.
Over the last few days, watching the Biden administration I am getting donut shop flashbacks.
Craig Melvin asked Biden about the border crisis and the fact that they haven't reunited a single separated family.
“I don’t think that’s true, but that could be.”
Well that’s just great. Can we speak to a manager?
“One of the things is we don’t know yet where those kids are.”
How do you know you absolutely are not getting your rental car?
“It’s almost like being a sleuth and we’re still continuing to try like hell to find out where they are.”
But not to fear, Co-President Kamala Harris is on the case. In March, she was touted to personally handle the “Kids in Cages” crisis.
As ABC showed footage of kids in overrun facilities, Harris droned on about hurricanes and injustices in El Salvador.
Regardless, she did so well rescuing the kids at the border with lofty statements on extreme weather conditions ̶ as well as corruption, violence against women, Indigenous people, LGBTQ people, and Afro-descendants ̶ that she’s now in charge of space.
Biden and Harris. This pair has no answers, no guiding ideology and no capacity to learn. This pair is a pair of sunglasses and a pair of boots and that’s it.
Good luck getting that donut.

Back when Trump was president, AOC went to some chain link fence near the border to cry. (fake tears)
Pedo Joe and the Ho haven’t even done that much.
“How do you know you absolutely are not getting your rental car? “
I rent SUVs occasionally when I take the little Flashes to the Sierra. Recently I ordered a 5 seat SUV when I could have used a 7 seater. The lady at the desk asked me if I wanted to upgrade to a 7 seater for some ridiculous amount of money. I said “No.” She gave me the keys to the rental. It was a 7 seater.
What I realized was that I was always going to get the 7 seater because that’s what they had. But she had to try to get me to “upgrade” to it. If I’d have bitten, I never would have known that I was going to get it for the original price anyway.
Yep.
As long as they look good and say the right things...that’s all that matters (in today’s fake world).
Mattressback Harris is said to be hard at work looking for the cause of the flood of illegal aliens. An article of news reports that most illegal aliens crossing the border say it’s because of Biden. Harris could “discover” the cause she’s looking for if she paid attention. But, like the orange juice, the info is in “the back.”
Shouldn’t that be ‘THEFT’?......................
I had almost the opposite experience: rented a high-dollar sedan for a trip from San Antonio to Colorado and back, the Colonel’s Wife wanted an SUV. We got there, no Caddy, they gave us an Infiniti SUV.. 2 miles from the place, we had a flat. Changed the tire, drove 2 miles back to Enterprise, they gave us a Mercedes SUV. Comfy, but I wouldn’t buy one.
I’m not saying a subscription to this blog wouldn’t be worth it, but I can’t right now. Thanks for sharing the gist of it.
Don’t worry, what they lack in intellectual heft and operational expertise they more than make up for in hubris and arrogance

When you click the link in the excerpt and it takes you to a pay wall.
Would you like to SUPERSIZE that order?
1 out of 4 says yes.
On the other hand, whenever I check into a hotel I always ask if they can upgrade my room. Many times they say yes. Sometimes, they say you will have to pay a little more. Not the normal price. Other times they give it to you for free if they are not too booked.
You never know unless you ask.
I remember when Northwest Airlines would let you upgrade to First Class for $50-100. It was well worth it if you were on a longer flight.
