Kabuki Puppet Theater

230 ... that’s the day’s tally for positive “super-duper corona” test results. In the past two weeks, the number of new “super-duper corona” infections has exceeded the total during the entire four months of “lockdown.” Yet, the governor of Hawai’i made only one announcement this week (refer to the Notes post, “Toothless”). The mayor ... well, he’s been “MIA.” So, what happened?

Last week, there was much hysteria amongst the government “duffers” and the general public. Threats of a full “lockdown” were at a fever pitch. The weekend came and went. Then, nothing ... just a reduction in the permissible number of people qualifying as a “gathering.” A fearful and bewildered public was stunned.

Well, what probably happened over the weekend was a series of video conferencing calls from the national headquarters of the Democrat (sic) Party. Hawai’i is 99% “blue.” The governor and the mayor are both Democrats. So, the (puppet) governor’s handlers in the party apparatus have most likely given him the mandate to “stand down” with the “super-duper corona” bullshit. The reason? The plan-demic has served its purpose (much like the rioting and “identity politics” agenda) and “ComaBro” is now a “shoe-in” for (puppet) emperor of empire. Lots of puppetry going on.

Addendum: More new and tactless signage has appeared in numerous locations in and around the “old folks home” in Waikiki about the limitations on gatherings. The senior citizen residents are not pleased.

Miscellany: The “lockdown” has a positive note. The manufactured crash in the tourism industry has resulted in the divestiture of large Euro-style passenger vans by small tour agencies. Many are listed for sale at reasonable prices. The motorhomeless option is alive and well!
