Reaping what you sow

The title of this post works for both a quick gardening recap and republican electoral prospects.  On the gardening front, we got a little too much rainfall in T-storms on Monday night.  That wouldn't be bad if we would get a solid week of dry weather following the 2 inches of rain, but Mother Nature has other ideas.  It looks like a washout weekend which will keep me from killing weeds, succession planting and mowing grass.  Plus the plants in some of the gardens with heavier soils will be struggling with the additional rainfall.  Well, I can only hope the weathermen got their forecast wrong.   Meanwhile, in the political world, the GOP is in for even heavier rainfall as their president's* program separating immigrant families at the border is inundated by media coverage of babies being ripped from their mothers' arms.   While there is a cruel, fascist minority who will cheer this policy, the vast majority of Americans are horrified by it.  If tRump, Sessions, Miller, et.al. believe this is a winning issue for the November elections, they are delusional.  They are in for an extinction level event.   Don't mess with mothers and babies!
