Friday Talking Points -- Thundering Down The Homestretch

[ Posted Friday, October 18th, 2024 – 16:59 UTC ]

Since we are less than three weeks away from the election, we are going to diverge from our normal Friday Talking Points format today.

Instead of brief talking points at the end, instead we tried to make the case against electing Donald Trump in the most effective ways we could think up. But when we got done, we realized that this extended rant also served as a good round-up of the week's political news. Sure, there were a few other things going on in politics, but at this point we are so focused on the campaign and the election that anything else is really just a distraction, this close to Election Day.

We did manage to hand out our weekly awards, for two campaign videos that appeared this week, but we're going to whip through those pretty quickly in order to get on with the main event this week.

We apologize for the foreshortened introduction this week, but as we said we're finding it hard to focus on anything outside the realm of the presidential race.

One heartening bit of campaign news is worth highlighting up front, though. Jimmy Carter's final wish was to live long enough to cast his ballot for Kamala Harris. He did so this week, by voting early in his home state of Georgia. Way to go, Jimmy!

 

Most Impressive Democrat Of The Week

As mentioned, both our awards this week go for political ads/videos.

Democrat Eugene Vindman is running for an open House seat in Virginia, since Representative Abigail Spanberger chose to run for governor next year rather than run for re-election to the House. His opponent is Republican Derrick Anderson, who was caught faking having a family earlier in the campaign. He shot campaign footage with what appeared to be his wife and three daughters, but it turned out none of them were related to Anderson (who is actually single).

The House Majority PAC just released an ad for Vindman which is downright brilliant. It calls out Anderson out on his fake family, complete with a lookalike actor (the ad calls him a "fake Anderson" at the end) and cardboard cutouts of the four women in various poses and situations (such as eating at the table).

If you need a laugh this week, check out Vindman's new ad. For skewering his opponent so effectively, Eugene Vindman (and the House Majority PAC as well) deserves this week's Most Impressive Democrat Of The Week.

Most Disappointing Democrat Of The Week

Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, on the other hand, released a really stupid video this week.

This seems to be a case of someone who is too old to understand some facet of online culture attempting to join in the fun, but producing cringes instead of the desired effect. Whitmer posted her attempt on TikTok, and was immediately condemned for it for a reason she hadn't even considered.

Here's the video and a description of it:

The eight-second video opens with author and influencer Liz Plank gazing up as a disembodied hand places a Doritos chip on her extended tongue, causing her eyes to roll back in apparent pleasure. The shot then pans left to reveal Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) holding a bag of chips, wearing a camouflage Harris-Walz presidential campaign hat and staring deadpan into the camera.

We have to admit, we are just as clueless about social media trends as most people our age, so we had no idea what she was even going for with this video. The article helpfully explains:

The video riffs off a social media trend in which someone out of view suggestively feeds the on-camera subject only for the shot to pan, revealing not a romantic interest but a friend or elderly relative who often looks disgusted. The videos are often set to Nelly's 2002 song "Dilemma."

The problem for Whitmer was that Catholics were seriously offended by the video, because in it they saw a mockery of their rite of Communion. Whitmer, to her credit, immediately apologized when she realized how many people she had offended:

In a statement, Whitmer said she didn't mean to reference Communion in the video but nevertheless apologized for the miscommunication.

"Over 25 years in public service, I would never do something to denigrate someone's faith," she said. "I've used my platform to stand up for people's right to hold and practice their personal religious beliefs."

Whitmer said the video was meant to be about the importance of the Chips and Science Act, which passed into law in 2022 to provide $52 billion to companies building computer chip factories and research facilities in the United States. The caption for the video, which was edited Friday, reads, "Chips aren't just delicious, the CHIPS Act is a game changer for U.S. tech and manufacturing, boosting domestic production of semiconductors to reduce reliance on foreign suppliers! Donald Trump would put that at risk."

We do take Whitmer at her word that this wasn't intentional. Even so, maybe someone should have realized the implication before the video was released? For not doing so, we have to award Whitmer this week's Most Disappointing Democrat Of The Week.

Friday Talking Points

Volume 771 (10/18/24)

As promised, this section is going to be a little different this week. We simply couldn't contain ourselves to just seven short talking points, we had to cover the whole gamut of ways to attack Donald Trump instead.

To her credit, Kamala Harris and her campaign are doing a pretty good job of staying focused on making the case against Donald Trump. She's doing so with increasing urgency, and Trump just keeps providing more and more material to work with.

So here is our rundown of what we feel are the most effective attacks to use against Donald Trump, in the waning days of the campaign. Most of these are quotes from people who are doing this very effectively, although we did write one or two of them ourselves.

In any case, here are the biggest reasons why Donald Trump should not become president again.

 

Trump is a sore loser

Why oh why do Democrats refuse to hit Trump where it hurts the most? We all know what Trump is most afraid of, and it's so easy to hit him with it.

American kids grow up learning important life lessons in various ways, and one of these lessons is pretty universal -- every kid learns this at some point: Don't be a sore loser.

It's a simple concept, really. You can throw a tantrum like a big baby if you lose, or you can be grown-up and take it in stride. Sore losers ruin things for everybody and should always be looked down upon for being immature and losing emotional control. The flip side to this is: Always be a gracious winner, but everyone expects at least a little bragging, so this one's not as absolute. But "don't be a sore loser" truly is.

Donald Trump is a loser. He lost the 2020 election. And then he threw the biggest sore-loser tantrum the country has ever seen. So why not call him out on it, using the language we all learned as kids? Call him exactly what he is: a sore loser. Because everyone who grew up in America knows full well that that's not a good thing to be.

President Joe Biden recently almost got it right. He just somehow forgot to say the word "sore." Here's how Biden put it:

[President Joe] Biden's vice president and current Democratic nominee Kamala Harris "beat Trump so badly in the debate he's scared to death to meet her again. That's a fact," said Biden. "Tough guy, right? Tough guy. Because he knows he'd lose again. That's a fact. He is a loser."

The president mocked Trump for calling himself "pro-business" when "we all know Trump is a failed businessman." Trump's casino went under, which is "pretty hard to do," taunted Biden. "How is that possible? I thought the house always won." And "Trump was not only a loser in 2020, he's a loser in everything he does," Biden said, later adding, "The only loser I know is Donald Trump."

 

Trump is too old

To her credit, Kamala Harris has been effectively painting Trump as unfit for the job of being president, although after she released her own medical evaluation she's been mostly concentrating on taunting Trump for not doing the same.

Senator Brian Schatz had a good take on this recently:

"There are people that like for their candidate to look strong and to look like they are in command," said Sen. Brian Schatz (D-Hawaii). Speaking of Trump, he added: "This guy looks like he's the last guy to leave the karaoke bar."

"He's gone from tough guy to elderly man saying random things," Schatz said.

But Bill Clinton had the best take on it this week, since he has a unique similarity to Trump:

Bill Clinton mocked his fellow septuagenarian and former president, Donald Trump, on Thursday for a bizarre musical episode earlier this week.

"I'm too old to gild a lily. Heck, I'm only two months younger than Donald Trump. But, the good news for you is, I will not spend 30 minutes swaying back and forth to music," the Democrat said while campaigning in Durham, North Carolina, for the Harris-Walz ticket.

 

Trump is exhausted

This one stemmed from cancelled podcast interview. Team Trump let the podcaster know that Trump couldn't do a promised interview because he was "exhausted" from the campaign trail. So pick it up and run with it!

"Earlier this week, Trump appeared to completely lose it. He was on stage for a town hall when he suddenly decided that he had answered enough questions for the night (after only taking five of them). So he played a bunch of his favorite music for the crowd instead, and stood there randomly swaying, or with his eyes closed, or gripping the back of a chair. Nobody knew what to think. Had Trump's brain just frozen? What was wrong with him? For a full thirty-nine minutes Trump stood there like a deer in the headlights. No wonder he's cancelling interviews because his team says he's 'exhausted.' He sure looks it -- he's just not up to the rigors of campaigning, obviously. And he's certainly not up to four more years in the White House, that's for sure."

 

Trump is unfit and unstable

Harris has been leaning in to this one, and doing a pretty good job of it:

It makes you wonder, why does [Donald Trump's] staff want him to hide away? One must question: Are they afraid that people will see that he is too weak and unstable to lead America?

From a different interview:

His staff won't let him do a 60 Minutes interview.... Everyone has done it except Donald Trump. He will not debate me again. I put out my medical records. He won't put out his medical records. And you have to ask: Why is his staff doing that? And it may be because they think he's just not ready -- and unfit and unstable.

After his appearance at the Al Smith dinner last night, Harris's campaign released a review, hitting the same notes:

"Donald Trump struggled to read scripted notes written by his handlers, repeatedly complaining that he couldn't use a teleprompter," Harris campaign spokesperson Ammar Moussa said in a statement. "He stumbled over his words and lashed out when the crowd wouldn't laugh with him."

"The rare moments he was off script, he went on long incomprehensible rambles, reminding Americans how unstable he's become," added Moussa. "And of course he made it all about himself. He may refuse to release his medical records, but every day he makes it clear to the American people that he is not up to the job."

The worst example was actually pretty funny. Harris seems to be getting under Trump's skin with all the talk of being unstable and unhinged. He went off on a tangent during one of his rallies complaining of people calling him "cognitively impaired" for mispronouncing a word or making some verbal error while speaking. Trump insisted this was not true (he's actually "perfect," according to him).

He then attempted his tried-and-true method of countering any attack, which is to attempt to turn it around on his opponents. But he wound up face-planting instead, and proving the truth of those who point out how often he slips a cog while speaking. He insisted that President Joe Biden was the one who (in his words) was "obviously cognitively repaired."

Um... repaired? OK, sure, Donny... whatever you say.

 

Trump is delusional

Donald Trump will believe anything anyone ever tells him and anything he reads on social media. It doesn't matter how delusional these conspiracy theories are, once he's decided that he's going to believe it nothing can change his mind. Not facts, not evidence -- nothing.

Donald Trump believes immigrants are eating cats and dogs in Springfield, Ohio. He believes Kamala Harris is going to ban cows. She's also going to ban buildings with windows. He called himself "the father of I.V.F.," before admitting that he had to have it explained to him by a Republican senator. If Harris wins, the stock market will crash worse than it did in 1929 -- even though he made the same prediction about Joe Biden and it never came to pass. Harris will "start World War III," or maybe "World War II" (he gets confused, at times). He also predicted electing Biden would kill the auto industry -- and he's making the same prediction about Harris, even though Detroit seems to be doing just fine. Harris will "double" or "quadruple" your taxes. She will take away everybody's guns. Oh, and we had a "peaceful transfer of power" after the 2020 election, too.

None of this is true, of course. But the point isn't that Trump is spewing lies, it is that the lies are so downright delusional. Do we really want a president who cannot tell the difference between delusion and reality?

 

Trump is getting darker and more racist

For some reason, a lot of folks in the political media woke up this week and realized what Donald Trump's been saying pretty much throughout his entire campaign. Not sure why this week was any different than any other week, but all of a sudden there were alarm bells ringing in column after column, pointing out how incredibly dark and racist Trump's language is.

Here's one example, from Politico this week:

Donald Trump vowed to "rescue" the Denver suburb of Aurora, Colorado, from the rapists, "blood thirsty criminals," and "most violent people on earth" he insists are ruining the "fabric" of the country and its culture: immigrants.

Trump's message in Aurora, a city that has become a central part of his campaign speeches in the final stretch to Election Day, marks another example of how the former president has escalated his xenophobic and racist rhetoric against migrants and minority groups he says are genetically predisposed to commit crimes. The supposed threat migrants pose is the core part of the former president's closing argument, as he promises his base that he's the one who can save the country from a group of people he calls "animals," "stone cold killers," the "worst people," and the "enemy from within."

He is no longer just talking about keeping immigrants out of the country, building a wall and banning Muslims from entering the United States. Trump now warns that migrants have already invaded, destroying the country from inside its borders, which he uses as a means to justify a second-term policy agenda that includes building massive detention camps and conducting mass deportations.

The Washington Post also took note of Trump's increasingly dehumanizing language (emphasis in original):

Former president Donald Trump has gone full racist ( or "nativist," as some outlets delicately describe it). In Aurora, Colo., the New York Times reports, he spewed "repeated claims, which have been debunked by local officials, that Aurora had been 'invaded and conquered,' described the United States as an 'occupied state'... and revived a promise to use the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to deport suspected members of drug cartels and criminal gangs without due process." He has continued demonizing legal immigrants from Haiti in Springfield, Ohio. In Detroit, as he does in many cities with large numbers of African American voters, he bashed the city. ("The whole country is going to be like -- you want to know the truth? It'll be like Detroit," he said. "Our whole country will end up being like Detroit if she's your president. You're going to have a mess on your hands.")

Regardless of his location, he invokes the specter of a non-White horde displacing Whites. Illegal immigrants are "evil," are "taking your jobs," and have "bad genes." Right-wing hosts, elected Republicans and most down-ticket Republican candidates don't blanch, let alone denounce racism unprecedented in modern American presidential elections. The mainstream media has begun to feature Trump's racism (sometimes thinly disguised with fuzzy language) in headlines.

Another Post article had yet another example:

Last month in Wisconsin: "They will walk into your kitchen," Mr. Trump said of undocumented immigrants. "They'll cut your throat." Later, he called the same people "animals."

Make no mistake about it -- this is "Trump being Trump." This is who he is. He is whipping up racist anti-immigrant hatred so that if he becomes president people will see immigrants as inhuman and deserving of whatever Trump feels like doing to them -- rounding them up, sticking them in concentration camps in the desert, deporting them. And he's not going to be limited by who is here legally, he's openly saying he's going to use a centuries-old law to just kick out anyone he feels like.

 

It's not just immigrants Trump will be coming for, either

Trump also feels free to threaten to use military force against any American who dares to disagree with him or protest against him. This should be disqualifying to any candidate for president, obviously, as it would trample on the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. But Trump doesn't care, because he has never read either document.

Here's what he had to say on the subject recently:

I think the bigger problem is the enemy from within, not even the people that have come in and destroyed our country, by the way, totally destroying our country. The towns, the villages, they're being inundated. But I don't think they're the problem in terms of Election Day. I think the bigger problem are the people from within. We have some very bad people. We have some sick people, radical-left lunatics. And I think they're the -- and it should be very easily handled by -- if necessary, by National Guard or, if really necessary, by the military, because they can't let that happen.

 

Trump wants unchecked power

The Supreme Court ruled that presidents have immunity for any official act, which Trump will abuse constantly. He's not going to have any "adults in the room" in his administration -- his only test for hiring his aides and cabinet is going to be their complete and utter loyalty to him. There will be no guardrails. And Trump's out there already admitting what he wants to do with this unchecked power:

"[Donald Trump] considers anyone who doesn't support him or who will not bend to his will the enemy, an enemy of our country. It's a serious issue," [Kamala] Harris said Monday night. "He is saying that he would use the military to go after them.... We know who he would target because he has attacked them before. Journalists whose stories he doesn't like; election officials who refuse to cheat by filling extra votes and finding extra votes for him; judges who insist on following the law instead of bending to his will."

"This is among the reasons I believe so strongly that a second Trump term would be a huge risk for America and dangerous," Harris continued. "Donald Trump is increasingly unstable and unhinged. And he is out for unchecked power. That's what he's looking for."

 

Donald Trump is a fascist to the core

This one comes from Trump's former chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff at the Pentagon. Who saw Trump, up close and personal. So you've got to assume he knows what he's talking about.

Retired Gen. Mark A. Milley warned that former president Donald Trump is a "fascist to the core" and "the most dangerous person to this country" in new comments voicing his mounting alarm at the prospect of the Republican nominee's election to another term, according to a forthcoming book by Washington Post associate editor Bob Woodward.

Milley, 66, served for more than a year as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff under Trump before continuing in the role under President Joe Biden.

. . .

"No one has ever been as dangerous to this country as Donald Trump," the general told Woodward. "Now I realize he's a total fascist. He is the most dangerous person to this country."

 

A whole lot of Republicans know what Trump is

So many Republicans have announced their endorsement for Harris that it's getting hard to keep track of them all. The Washington Post provided a helpful list of the most prominent of these, to jog everyone's memory.

This is not normal, it bears pointing out. There has always been some crossover support for presidential candidates, to be sure, but not on this scale. We're not talking about a handful of people publicly crossing the aisle to support the other team's candidate, we are talking about hundreds of them -- starting with the man who served as Trump's own vice president, as well as the man who served as George W. Bush's vice president.

And even though he is taking the coward's route of supporting a man he knows is unfit for office, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell had the best line of the week, even though it was uttered four years ago. After the 2020 election, McConnell summed up Donald Trump pretty succinctly (and accurately), calling him "a despicable human being."

 

Trump isn't "weaving" -- he's unravelling

Donald Trump has never been all that focused when he speaks, although he's obviously deteriorated immensely on this front. He used to at least be able to answer a question from a reporter or a voter with some degree of coherence and without going off on seven or eight tangents. He no longer appears able to do this in even minimal ways.

He recently came up with a way to make this all seem somehow planned, like he's playing a game of three-dimensional chess that others just can't understand. He calls it "the weave." In his mind, he is so gosh-darn smart that he is able to bring up eight or nine unrelated subjects and then somehow "weave" them into some coherent whole cloth, tying them together "brilliantly" (as he put it).

In reality, he's just rambling aimlessly about whatever pops into his head when it pops into his head. He rarely finishes any of his thoughts, he never "weaves" them into any sort of whole, and he comes off as doddering and incoherent rather than some masterful chess-player.

It's not "weaving." Weaving means creating something meticulously out of raw materials. That's not what Trump does at all. You know what it's really like? It's like you are sitting there in a beautiful sweater and you notice a thread hanging loose. So you pull on it and pull on it and as you do your entire garment falls apart. It's the opposite of "weaving." What Trump does when he speaks isn't weaving -- it's unravelling.

    I am stocking up on popcorn and I’m really going to enjoy watching Kamala and the Dems put an uber biblical shellacking on Trump and his MAGAts. I’ll always wonder if Joe would have done likewise but Trump has never broken 50% and never even tried to change that, so I think he would have.

    Most Disappointing Democrat of the Week: Update

    Remember Robert Telles who received the "award" on a prior Friday for the first-degree murder of Jeff German, an investigative journalist who wrote articles exposing an intimate relationship between Telles and a coworker and critical of his conduct in office? He was sentenced this week to at least 28 years in prison. Lock him up.

    Lock up all the convicted felons regardless of Party affiliation.

    THREE FRAKING YEARS!! And ya'all completely and unequivocally DENIED what everyone with more than 2 brain cells to rub together already knew..

    And then there is this incessant whine from the disgrace dishonorably discharged druggie convict about where is President Trump going to get the votes??

    HELLO!!! MCFLY!!!!

    Haven't you read all the facts from MULTIPLE reputable media sources that PROVE President Trump is gaining millions and millions and millions of votes from hisapanic and black Americans who are completely fed up with the Demon'rat Party??

    You CAN read, can't you?? Convict??

    Of course, those millions and millions and millions of black and Hispanic American votes don't even include the TENS OF MILLIONS of votes from white Americans who are ALSO fed up with Basement Biden and Token DEI Hire Headboard Harris and Demon'rat failed policies...

    I am going to say this real slow for you convict so that you understand..

    Token DEI Hire Headboard Harris... and.... Tampon Tim NO BALLZ Walz.... simply.... CANNOT.... win.... the..... election....

    They are in a WORSE spot than Basement Biden was.. And ya'all conceded that Basement Biden couldn't win..

    Your team has no shot, convict... It's dead in the water...

    And, when President Trump prevails in just 16 days, I'll be here to laugh you out of Weigantia and the rest of your troll buddies too.. :D

    That is, unless I get banned... Which I see as a distinct possibility, given the fragility of the psyche of those suffering from PTDS and Trump/America hate..

    Vulnerable incumbent Democratic Senator Bob Casey turned heads Friday with a new campaign ad in Pennsylvania that highlights how he "bucked Biden" and "sided" with former President Trump.

    "This is undeniable, irrefutable proof that Trump is winning in these key battlegrounds, and those bumps you hear are Kamala Harris being thrown under the bus by incumbent Democrats, who used to be her colleagues in the Senate. The Harris camp must be beside themselves with fury over being rejected and abandoned like this, but that’s what happens when you get stuck with the worst candidate in modern political history."

    Kamala Harris continues to underperform in critical states

    Pick any average from the multitude of polling views — two-way, multicandidate, battleground states, and even individual battleground states — and Token DEI Hire Headboard Harris is running consistently below where Basement Biden was in 2020 and Hillary in 2016.

    President Trump doesn't HAVE to pick up any new votes..

    Since Token DEI Hire Headboard Harris is CONSISTENTLY WAY underperforming 2020 Basement Biden and 2016 Hillary, President Trump can win with the votes he has..

    He doesn't NEED the millions and millions and millions of former Demon'rat hispanic and black American voters..

    But President Trump has them!! :D

    There’s a reason the Token DEI Hire Headboard Harris campaign is suddenly making her available for softball media opportunities, such as her recent appearances on CBS’s “60 Minutes” and “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” as well as ABC’s “The View,” and even for riskier ones like her Wednesday appearance on Fox News.

    Gone is the strategy attributed to Abraham Lincoln that it is “better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.” Silence is a luxury that Team Kamala can no longer afford. A look at Token DEI Hire Headboard Harris’ polling numbers will tell you why.

    The battleground states, however, are where the real story lies. RealClearPolitics’s Oct. 13 top battleground polling average has Trump leading Harris very narrowly, 48.3 percent to 47.9 percent. At this point in 2020, Basement Biden led in this average by 5 points.

    Token DEI Hire Headboard Harris is hoping and praying that the polls are NOT undercounting President Trump as they did in 2016 and 2020

    But hope and prayer are not viable strategies. That’s why Token DEI Hire Headboard Harris' campaign managers are changing theirs.

    They know she is losing now, and absent significant improvement, she will lose in November.

    Today’s polling speaks volumes. Demon'rat's and their increasing desperation speaks louder still.

    Brett Baier absolutely DEMOLISHED Token DEI Hire Headboard Harris.. :D

    Baier hit the ground running by asking Harris how many illegal immigrants she thought her administration has released to date — “One, 2 million?” Harris replied, “It’s an important discussion people want to have,”..

    Of course, Token DEI Hire Headboard Harris refused to answer the question. She hemmed and hawed and tried to equivocate and bloviate.. But the answer was a simple answer..

    When Baier revealed the number has reached 6 million illegals and asked if Token DEI Hire Headboard Harris regretted the fact that she and Basement Biden had reversed Trump’s “Remain in Mexico” border policy, Harris blamed Congress for not passing a bill that would have, according to her, fixed the immigration system.

    Basement Biden and Token DEI Hire Headboard Harris had OVER 3 and a half years to get Congress to do just that.. But the ONLY bill they could come up with allowed up to TEN MILLION illegals to enter the US before ANY action would be taken..

    That wasn't an Border Security bill. It was a "YA'ALL COME!!!" bill..

    And even then, six Democrats and Bernie Sanders OPPOSED that bill.. Why is that!??

    Token DEI Hire Headboard Harris admitted in the interview that the southern border has been "broken for some time"... Yet, she is ALSO on the record as saying SEVERAL TIMES in the last 3+ years that "the southern border secure"...

    So, which is it, Headboard Harris?? Is the border secure or is it broken?? :eyeroll:

    Token DEI Hire Headboard Harris wants to give sex-change operations to illegal immigrant criminals.. She affirmed that in the interview as well..

    Also in the interview, Token DEI Hire Headboard Harris STILL couldn't think of ANYTHING she would have done different if she were in charge instead of Basement Biden.. Yet, she STILL claims a "new way forward"... A "new way" that won't be ANY different than Basement Biden's way..

    Only a Demon'rat could be so obtuse..

    And then came the coop de gracie…. :D

    Token DEI Hire Headboard Harris appeared to become more uncomfortable and confounded as the interview progressed, and when the cackling VP insisted Baier knew what she was talking about when she spoke of a “new way forward,” and Baier insisted actually, he did not, Harris said it was a new way forward from “the last decade” and “Donald Trump’s rhetoric” designed to divide our country.

    Harris alleged Trump is “misguided, unstable, mentally not stable” — the perfect segue for Baier to ask Token DEI Hire Headboard Harris, “When did you notice President Biden’s mental faculties were diminished?”

    Three astonished blinks later, and Token DEI Hire Headboard Harris said Basement Biden has had “the judgment and the experience to do exactly what he has done in making very important decisions on behalf on the American people.”

    And yet, he was removed from being the Demon'rat candidate because he DID have "the judgement"....

    Baier simply DEMOLISHED Token DEI Hire Headboard Harris.. UTTERLY DESTROYED her!!! :D

    Brett Baier wanted to do this interview to remind the American people where Token DEI Hire Headboard Harris was in 2019 and where Token DEI Hire Headboard Harris is today..

    Ironically enough... It appears that not even Token DEI Hire Headboard Harris knows the answer to this..

    I have to take exception with your claim about the 40K civilian deaths in Gaza.

    Hamas does not differentiate between CIVILIAN Gazans and MILITARY Gazans..

    Therefore the 40K dead Gazans are combatants and as such, their fate is deserved..

    Even when Demon'rats "fact check" President Trump, they are proven categorically and 1000% Factually NOT Accurate...

    In last month's political showdown between former President Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, Trump cited the rise of violent crime to hammer the Biden-Harris administration's record.

    "Crime here is up and through the roof despite their fraudulent statements that they made," Trump said. "Crime in this country is through the roof."

    Moments later, ABC debate moderator David Muir attempted to fact-check the Republican nominee.

    "President Trump, as you know, the FBI says overall violent crime is actually coming down in this country," Muir responded.

    Trump immediately pushed back.

    "Excuse me," Trump told Muir. "They were defrauding statements. They didn't include the worst cities. They didn't include the cities with the worst crime. It was a fraud. Just like their number of 818,000 jobs that they said they created turned out to be a fraud."

    And guess what?? ABC Moron Muir was PROVEN wrong by the FBI...

    A recent FBI revision backs President Trump.

    After reporting there was a 2.1% drop in violent crimes in 2022, the FBI now admits there was actually a 4.5% increase.

    The new numbers reflect a net increase of 80,029 violent crimes in 2022 over 2021. He found that under the umbrella of violent crime, there were an additional 1,699 murders, 7,780 rapes, 33,459 robberies and 37,091 aggravated assaults that year.

    Muir has yet to acknowledge the FBI's stat change on "World News Tonight," according to Grabien transcripts.

    Of course Moron Muir won't acknowledge that President Trump was dead on ballz accurate and all of the Demon'rats were full of kaa kaa…

    Being a Trump/America hating Demon'rat means NEVER admitting when yer wrong..

    That's another difference between 2006 Weigantia and 2023 Weigantia.. 2006 Weigantia had no problem admitting they were wrong when the facts PROVED they were wrong..

    2023 Weigantia NEVER admits when President Trump is factually accurate and Demon'rats are wrong..

    Rosie O’Donnell’s oldest daughter, Chelsea Belle O’Donnell, was arrested on charges of child neglect after cops say they found her 11-month-old in a home filled with meth pipes, feces and garbage, In Touch can exclusively report.

    According to court documents obtained by In Touch, Chelsea, 27, was charged with four felony counts of maintaining a drug trafficking place, child neglect, possession of methamphetamine and possession of THC on September 17.

    Prosecutors also charged Chelsea with two misdemeanors: disorderly conduct/domestic abuse and possession of illegally obtained prescription drugs. According to the Marinette County Sheriff’s Office, police received a call from Chelsea on September 10.

    The dispatch heard people arguing and a female telling someone to “get the hell away” from her. The police said at the home they found Chelsea who had “dilated” pupils.

    Dem Senator of PA Bob Casey releases a PRO President Trump/Anti Headboard Harris ad... :D

    Pennsylvania Democrat Bob Casey embraces … Trump

    No matter who is asking — a Democrat, Republican, reporter, or cable news producer — most people believe Pennsylvania will decide who the next president is and also perhaps whether Democrats keep a Senate majority or the Republicans retake it.

    The best illustration of exactly how it is going lies in a new ad for Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA), the Scranton Democrat who has held the seat for 18 years, that shows a married couple, Marygrace and Joe, with different political affiliations who claim their only political common ground is Casey.

    “On politics, we just don’t agree — except for Bob Casey. He’s independent. That’s right! Casey’s leading the effort to stop corporate greedflation and price gouging. Casey bucked Biden to protect fracking, and he sided with Trump to end NAFTA and put tariffs on China to stop them from cheating,” the ad says.

    The fact that Casey is running an ad highlighting how much he agrees with former President Donald Trump tells you everything you need to know about how Pennsylvania is going.

    And, as PA goes, so goes the country...

    The Scent of a Harris Panic in the Air

    The 2024 race is still close.

    But then so was the 1980 Carter-Reagan race at this same juncture.

    Indeed, incumbent president Carter was then comfortably up in the last two October Gallup polls—before utterly and suddenly evaporating on Election Day.

    But in the last seven days, there seems a sense of panic in the Harris campaign.

    How do we know that?

    Why are Democratic pundits—from Axelrod to Carville—blasting the Harris campaign and otherwise warning of bad things to come?

    Why are some of the once Democrat sure-thing senate races—e.g., in Ohio, Wisconsin, and even Michigan—tightening up?

    Pundit poll-watchers are suggesting that Trump is close, even, or slightly ahead in the swing-state polls, suggesting that he is nearing a margin that could cancel out anticipated “ballot irregularities”.

    The expected October Harris-Biden surprises—the opportune Fed interest rate cut, the transparently desperate Jack Smith beefed-up re-indictment, the current new Hollywood Trump-hit movie, the desperate Zelensky fly-in to Pennsylvania, the election-cycle customary Bob Woodward unsourced gossip book—seemed so far to have had no effect.

    Why would any campaign send out the bumbling Tim Walz to a Fox Sunday interview after his disastrous debate?

    Why is a suddenly smiling Biden so eager to claim candidate and VP Harris as a co-conspirator to his disastrous four years?

    Why would Harris pivot and now agree to (admittedly mostly softball) interviews, thus confirming to the voting public why she wisely had previously avoided all press conferences, interviews, and town halls?

    Why—after the last two moderator-rigged ABC and CBS debates—would Harris desperately want another and possibly believe that Trump would ever agree to any such warped forum?

    The last 4-5 Harris scripted interviews, but especially on CBS’s 60 Minutes, have been train wrecks.

    Everyone expected (and was not disappointed) the on-spec word salads, predictable sappy retreats to her misleading bio, the now accustomed deer-in-the-headlights confusion about her prior three years with Biden, and the general mush in lieu of any policy prescriptions.

    Why would CBS think it worth ruining its already debased reputation by doctoring the transcript of the Harris disastrous interview in a vain attempt at Orwellian repair?

    Why is a rusty but still narcissistic Barack Obama at last hitting the campaign trail?

    And is he still effective—or reduced to becoming an Oprah-like caricature?

    After all, is it wise for the elite Obama (in his now accustomed snarky “clingers” style) to venture out of his mansions (Kalorama? the Hawaii beachfront? or the Martha Vineyard estate?) to talk down to black males struggling under years of a hyperinflationary economy, a flood of illegal immigrants from an open border, and a four-year-spiking crime rate?

    Does the Netflix grandee berating black men as victims of false consciousness, misled, and brainwashed into voting for the Trump agenda really win them over to Harris?

    Does the hundred-million-dollar-plus man Obama persuade anyone by reverting for a few moments to his old community-organizing, fake black patois and his pseudo-racial intimacy of “brothers”?

    And does it work for Obama (remember “when they go low, we go high”) to blast Trump as racist and crude, when Obama jokes that Trump wears diapers— this after previously suggesting at the Democratic convention that Trump suffered from small genitalia?

    If this should continue, soon the July 21st coup that removed Biden, along with the Harris pick of Tim Walz, will go down as days of Democrat infamy.

    Anything can happen in the next three weeks. But so far, the cures for the Harris slide are far worse than the malady itself.

    I think there are a lot of folks, such as myself, who think that Donald Trump's unpopularity is baked in. But here's the deal. If you believe that Donald Trump has somehow become less popular over time, let me change your mind about that. In fact, he is more popular at this point in the campaign than he was at this point in the 2020 campaign or the 2016 campaign.

    Look, he's still underwater, right? With a negative nine-point net favorability rating. But that is higher than he was in 2020 at minus 12 points when he nearly won, and it is way higher than the minus 27 net favorability back in 2016 when he did win.

    So, I think there's this real question in Kamala Harris's mind and the campaign's mind: why is Trump more popular now than he was at this point in 2020 or 2016? I think that is why you're seeing the sharpening attacks. They want to put him back down to here. There's no way they’re necessarily going to get him back down to here, but they want to make Trump more unpopular than he is right now because he's more popular now than at either point in 2020 or 2016.

    It's OK.. Once President Trump wins the election, these two losers will be too embarrassed to even show their faces around here...

    Embarrassed? Does your happiness rise and fall with the outcome of political elections? I guess it would if you were a Trumpian-type MAGA cult minion. Well, mine does not, and I would wager his doesn't either.

    This time, prior to the Hamas attack, the intelligence apparatus delivered a series of strategic warnings, grounded in not just assessments but also credible information. While these warnings may not have been directly focused on Gaza, they were still extraordinary in nature — warnings unlike those received by any Israeli leader in recent decades. Netanyahu rejected these warnings both in private and in public. In an April 2023 interview on Israel’s Channel 14, the prime minister was asked directly about the issue. Netanyahu responded by saying the warnings were “exaggerated.”

    JL,

    Netanyahu may eventually have to face the music over his building up of Hamas and the tearing down of the Palestinian Authority given all of the inherent corruption of the PA; over ignoring all of the readily apparent signs of Hamas intentions and his own legal issues.

    But, I think Netanyahu is hardly the only problem and obstacle to Israel's security and future as a Jewish state. While he is wreaking the most havoc he can muster against the idea of a Palestinian state, he is far from being alone in that thinking and in not having a viable plan and strategy for peace.

    It appears to me that the powers that be throughout the state of Israel - far beyond its current leader - and much of the population have decided that a two-state solution is, how shall I put it ... 'permanently off the table' and, in no uncertain terms at that.

    The question now is just how long Israel can continue on its present course without losing what is left of its moral authority and its very existence as a Democratic and Jewish state. The answer, I believe, rests with enlightened leadership. Unfortunately, like much of the rest of the world, this is a commodity that is in extremely short supply, if present at all.

    cad, cad, cad...

    Your behavior is beyond pitiful. Calling you "cad" seems far too kind a term for the mess you’ve made of your life. I should probably feel pity for someone as lost and broken as you, but you’ve made it incredibly hard to muster even that small amount of compassion. You’ve been dishonorably discharged from the military—of all things, kicked out for drug abuse. That disqualifies you from claiming even the smallest bit of honor as a veteran. The title of veteran is reserved for those who served their country with dignity, not for people like you who squandered the opportunity through poor choices.

    Your frequent disappearances and your peculiar vocabulary make it crystal clear to anyone paying attention: you're in prison. It’s not hard to deduce. I wouldn’t be surprised if your crimes involved drugs. Perhaps a DUI? Maybe you caused a fatal accident while under the influence, and now you’re rotting behind bars, paying the price for the tragic mistakes you’ve made. Manslaughter? Vehicular homicide? Who knows. Either way, you’re locked away, and rightfully so. Society is better off with you in a cage.

    It’s painfully obvious that you're a sad, lonely individual. You've driven everyone away with your toxicity, and the life you’ve created is one destined to be lived in solitude. You're the kind of person who will end up alone, and frankly, you deserve no better. I should probably pity you for that, too—because loneliness is a tragic end for anyone—but your attitude makes it impossible. You’re not just pitiable; you’re repulsive. The way you carry yourself, the way you interact with others, dripping with malice and disrespect—it’s hard to feel sorry for someone who revels in being so vile.

    And then there’s your name-calling. It’s laughable, really. The childish insults you throw around are a dead giveaway. They scream of someone who is desperate to wound others because deep down, you know just how low you’ve fallen. Name-calling can only sting if there’s a grain of truth behind it. But your insults are hollow, devoid of any substance, which only makes them bounce off like harmless pebbles. Your attempts at cutting people down fail, and they only serve to reveal just how little you have left in your arsenal. You’re scraping the bottom of the barrel, and it’s sad to watch.

    Your delusions are further amplified by your troll bimbo's lame attempt to project your own prison status onto me. It’s so predictable, it’s almost boring. But let's be clear: I work in law enforcement. It’s a fact that someone with a criminal record, especially prison time, would never be allowed to serve in law enforcement. Your troll bimbo knows this, and yet, in her desperation to defend the indefensible, she clings to baseless accusations because it’s all she has...

    Now, let's talk facts. My descriptions of you, in contrast, are grounded in reality. You were dishonorably discharged from the military. You’ve admitted to being a drug addict. Your use of certain slang and patterns of disappearance point to an inmate’s lifestyle. And it’s blindingly obvious that you're utterly alone and will likely die that way because no one with any self-respect would want to be associated with someone like you.

    At the end of the day, your situation is one of your own making. You’ve driven yourself into isolation through your actions, and now you’re lashing out in bitterness. I don’t need to engage in childish name-calling or flail around with empty insults because the facts speak for themselves. You are a person trapped by your own poor decisions, and it’s a fate that—while tragic—you fully deserve. While pity might be the appropriate response for someone in your position, you’ve made it impossible to feel anything but contempt. So, no pity here—just the cold, hard facts.

    you're completely off-base about what bibi will answer for, and by implication you're also wrong about who he will answer to. If the war ends favorably he'll last until the scheduled elections of 2026, but not past then. the israeli voting public doesn't much care what the world thinks of the PA or "two states" - they care that bibi thought he had Hamas controlled, ignored unprecedented warnings in early 2023, and thousands of israelis have paid for that mistake with their lives, never mind the thousands more of palestinian arabs and lebanese who have also died.

    yet another thing you're completely wrong about is the demise of the two state idea. that has very little to do with the actions of politicians; the reason it's currently "off the table" is the lack of trust between communities. On October 7, 2023, many supposed "civilians" who the residents of southern israel thought they were friendly with and were working on behalf of with the government, turned out to have been reporting on them to the terrorists, so they could more efficiently be killed, kidnapped and robbed. that doesn't mean there's zero possibility for two states, but it means the concept needs to be adjusted. there are already creative types on both sides working on that problem.

    Donald Trump: A guy who believes that accumulation of wealth is the true sign of a man's worth, who easily takes both sides of any issue for political expediency while his true loyalty lies with himself, a confident con no matter which side he's taking, and the biggest threat to our country coming not from without, but from within, a guy who fancies himself a true patriot but who'd turn coat on America and her people in order to satisfy his insatiable greed and lust for power and title... a modern-day Benedict Arnold.

    * Public record.

    well say what you want about his junk, there's no denying the excellence of his lemonade/iced tea.

    Heh. Good one.

    I personally wouldn't discuss any man's penis in a public setting, particularly one that included children and young people, and I now won't likely be able to drink that excellent lemonade and iced tea without pondering the thought of what an absolute giant prick and classless moron that Donald Trump actually is for having done that.

    Apparently, the orange sexual predator does know why it's fun to stay at the YMCA!

    And he has a "Dick Dance" he does to that tune to prove it! Maybe we should consider renaming that jerk-off dance the "Arnold Palmer"!?

    Typical. The McDonald's was closed and the event entirely staged. Definitely participation award level stuff but not surprising as I doubt the Secret Service would let Trump work an active McDonald's with the random public...

    Besides the Secret Service, unless they've launched a new McFelon employee initiative, McDonald's Corporation (and generally any legitimate business entity) would not hire a recently 34-time convicted felon and recently adjudicated rapist found liable of sexual assault to work anywhere near the public either. Negligence doesn't begin to describe for what McDonald's (or a business entity) would be legally liable for allowing a known felon and sexual predator to work anywhere near another employee or the public. Seriously.

    FACT: Donald Trump could not serve in the military nor get hired as a McDonald's employee with his current criminal record and recent verdict/adjudication of rape... forget about serving anywhere near a position of power like law enforcement [as the troll points out above], unless he chose to answer untruthfully or omit the facts on his resume and/or application, which is generally always grounds for court martial or immediate termination, whichever the case.

    Of course it was staged! Donald Trump is a con artist.

    But it was an awfully nice exercise for the Orange Clown to don an apron and remind everyone in America that Donald Trump couldn't get a job running the fry station or the window at McDonald's -- or being a dog catcher or working anywhere where an application and background check are prerequisites -- yet he wants you to hire him as President of the United States.

    Puts that in perspective.

    JL,

    - they care that bibi thought he had Hamas controlled, ignored unprecedented warnings in early 2023, and thousands of israelis have paid for that mistake with their lives,

    And yet, you STILL cannot provide ANY facts of these "unprecedented warnings".. All you have provided is links to Israel/BiBi haters who have CLAIMED that there were "unprecedented warnings"...

    Why not show these "unprecedented warnings" so that we can factually determine whether or not they were "unprecedented"... Or even "warnings".. As opposed to nothing more than 20/20 hindsight??

    never mind the thousands more of palestinian arabs and lebanese who have also died.

    Once again, I am constrained to point out that ALL of those Palestinians are COMBATANTS, by the terrorists' own claims..

    As such, they are not to be mourned any more so than the Nazi soldiers of WWII are to be mourned..

    that doesn't mean there's zero possibility for two states, but it means the concept needs to be adjusted.

    The ONLY possibility for a 2 state solution is when Palestinians realize that they could live in peace side by side with Israel if they would simply be content to live in peace side by side with Israel.

    Is when Palestinians decide to love their children more than they hate Israel..

    Then... and ONLY then.. will a 2 state solution be possible.

    oh boo-hoo liz, you're not completely wrong about everything, just the middle-east.

    To be fair, Liz is as much "completely wrong" as you are.. You both have some valid points, but you can't see past your ideology to see and appreciate the facts and the reality on the ground..

    It's not really ya'all's fault. Ya'all are just basing your opinions on "book learnin'" as opposed to being there and doing that..

    For ya'all, it's all just political theory..

    Suffice it to say that, even if Bibi loses in 2026, he won't be gone for long.. The non-Netanyahu coalition will frak things up, as they ALWAYS do, and patriotic Israelis will demand that Bibi be placed back in power..

    Just as Americans will demand that President Trump be placed back in power in some 15 odd days..

    It is.... inevitable...

    Two Weeks Before the Meltdown Begins

    So here goes: Donald Trump will win, and he will win convincingly. But that doesn’t mean the progressive left won’t have a meltdown. Just as in 2016, when Trump was first elected president, the media will be dismayed, the Democrats will be shocked, and there will be protests in the streets, possibly violent. Congressional Democrats such as Jamie Raskin will try to prevent Trump from being sworn in by declaring him an insurrectionist.

    Seven so-called battleground states are supposed to decide the election: Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, North Carolina, Georgia, Nevada, and Arizona. But even more important will be the experience of the American people, who in large measure have come to regret the election that put Joe Biden in the White House four years ago.

    That is the underlying story that the media will never acknowledge. Polling within the last year shows that less than one-third of Republicans believe Biden is the legitimate president, and 36% of all Americans have doubts about the 2020 election. That is only a feeling, not a fact, but feelings decide presidential elections, and the almost gleeful anti-American thrust of Biden’s presidency has given more than 60% of potential voters a feeling that we are on the wrong track as a nation.
    -Frank Thiele

    It's clear to anyone with more than 2 brain cells to rub together and who is NOT suffering from a scorching case of PTDS infused Trump/America hate that President Trump will be re-elected. If not in a landslide then at such as a level as to dispel any doubts of a mandate... :D

    Token DEI Hire Headboard Harris has all the mental infirmities and deficiencies of Basement Biden without the senility/dementia-riddled excuses..

    It's going to be SOOO MUCH FUN to see Demon'rats implode with all the finger-pointing and blame-gaming and recriminations after President Trump wins so decisively... :D

    That alone is going to be worth the price of admission.. :D

    The FTP posted Friday, October 18, 2024. Duh! This one. If you're asking about the last time before this, the blog is obviously archived so stop being lazy and look it up yourself. Whatever Friday it was posted, it was likely when the Michale Troll was here shit posting in the comments section hurling insults at anyone on the blog who didn't agree with his cult worship of the Orange Pathologically Lying Criminal Fraudulent Old McDonald's Clown.

    FUN FACT: Yesterday, Donald Trump claimed at a rally in Lancaster, Pennsylvania: “I'm not 80, and I'm not that close to 80.”

    Donald Trump will be 80 years old June 14, 2026. The total number of days between Sunday, October 20th, 2024 and Saturday, June 13th, 2026 is 601 days. This is equal to 1 year, 7 months, and 24 days so Trump is undeniably close to 80 years old and definitely a pathologically lying bullshit artist as well as cognitively impaired and demonstrably lousy at simple mathematics.

    And yes, nypoet22 is right, shortly after October 7th last year there were a bunch of articles about all the intelligence Israel had received about the attack from the blue print of the attack a year earlier to Israeli intelligence a few weeks before the attack to Egyptian and CIA warnings a few days before Oct 7th and finally Shen Bet warnings hours before the attack. Lots of arm chair quarterbacking at the time on whether Bibi intentionally ignored it all to stay in power...

    @bashi,

    as you said, that's armchair quarterbacking (i.e. silly talk). the most likely reason bibi ignored the warnings is hubris. he was drinking his own kool-aid and thought he had Hamas under control, all evidence to the contrary.

    if he'd really believed the intel and wanted to use it to stay in power, he'd have quietly stationed a battalion of troops on the kibbutzim, crushed the incursion as it happened, and THEN used it as a pretext to invade Gaza and Lebanon anyway. October 7 happened on his watch, at least partly due to his lack of attention to it. that's not something any leader wants to be known for.

    True, but without the spilled Israeli blood and loss of life being so great, he would never be allowed to carry out the killings of so many enemies of Israel. He won’t be remembered for the Israeli deaths occurring under his leadership; he will be remembered for making those who played any role in the attack pay with their lives! He will be remembered as a hero. Bibi needed the high death numbers to boost his own claim to fame.
