It’ll be easy. Hey, the disco era was better than 2021.
President Biden will propose his administration’s same ruinous 2021 policies as if they are bright new 2022 ideas, failing to remember they were already implemented. Nice comic relief.
The enthusiasm of powerful Democrats for open borders will suddenly disappear when the wrong people start showing up at Martha’s Vineyard, Arlington County, and Nancy Pelosi’s mansion.
With news promotion of Covid hysteria becoming even more repetitive, media will have a harder time pushing it. They’ll turn to something original, maybe Omega Hay Fever.
Having emptied out the posh stores and boutiques, the smash-and-grab peaceful protesters will move on to the dollar stores, where they’ll find nothing worth stealing. Desperate, they’ll decide to get jobs.
Tom Brady will be one year older.
Mr. Magoo will sue Joe Biden for copyright infringement.
As Major League Baseball shuts down, fans will realize that in 2022 they will be spared many tedious hours watching batters adjust their batting gloves.
Hunter Biden will get an entertaining gig with either MSNBC as a news analyst or Comedy Central in “Gong Show 2022” (or MSNBC Comedy if the channels merge). Hunter will receive elocution lessons from Al Sharpton.
Reporters will stop bothering to ask Vice President Kamala Harris questions, and we won’t have to hear more of her cackling.
As Harris’ limited aptitudes attract more concern in 2022, administration insiders will push her to a more appropriate position, say, Dean of Women’s Anger Studies at Oberlin. Biden (with much advisory assistance) will name a history-making VP: a differently-abled multi-racial post-gender undocumented-immigrant Pacific Islander vegan named Jahnnie.
Recognizing that most contemporary music is derivative, repetitive, and unpleasant to hear, the Grammy Awards will cancel itself for 2022. OK, that one’s a long-shot, but I’m an optimist.
Bitcoin will crash and those who never bought in can enjoy the satisfaction of not losing!
Dave, in an astonishing manner, you have identified many things in 2022 that will actually be improvements over the messes of 2021. That in itself is a tour de force. As for Kamala, Peggy Noonan has a valuable piece in WSJ for Friday Dec 10 that advises Kamala to straighten up and fly right, and actually tells her how to do it. Peggy concludes by an overall doubt that any improvement will occur. After all, it never has through Kamala’s long public career.
Thanks for the nice comment, Jack. I actually replied to that Noonan column — something to the effect that giving Kamala advice was like giving advice to a stone.
Always excellent perspective with a wry smile, love it. However, we have to understand that those 2021 ruinous policies WILL be bright new 2022 ideas for Geritol Joe.
I’m late in thanking you for your nice comment on “Why 2022…” Appreciate having an insightful reader like you! Was about to add “e-friend,” but with any luck you will also meet up some day, Ward.
