I have low interest in the Grammy's, but I was passing by the television when Long Suffering Spouse was watching it. It was just as the Album of the Year was announced, which went to Taylor Swift.
Swift, as we all know, has been the subject of an insane far right conspiracy theory that GOP pundits right now try to nervously laugh off (if you haven't heard it, listen to last weekend's This Week in which the pundit calls it crazy and then realizes that he's pretty much called the entire GOP crazy, tries to laugh it off, and then goes into a tirade about how all football fans are voting for Trump. Um, crazy much?
Anyhow, Swift, with perfect timing, lingers in her very brief acceptance speech to state she's going to give an announcement that she was going to wait until April to give. Oh my, what could it be? A wedding announcement or. . . the much feared Biden endorsement?
Nope, her new album is being released.
Nicely played.
Swift contrasts nicely with Myley Cyrus, who won her first award.
Not so nicely played are the machinations of one Mike Johnson, who it is now clear is nothing more than a puppet of Trump's. He went on Meet the Press to defend himself, was slammed on that show, and on all the rest of them.
And JD Vance is now pretty much an outright fascist. Perhaps more so than Trump is claimed to be, although he's paving the way for a violent rejection of the United States Supreme Court. Vance is pretty desperately campaigning with Donald for the VP slot.
