This I did not see coming in Wilmington, North Carolina today. I pretty much foresaw the recitation of how Trump was going to “protect” women, yeah right, and I knew he was going to trash Kamala but I wasn’t expecting him to go into a riff on how we were going to reach Mars “by the end of my term.” Let’s just define that phrase: does “my term” mean four years, if elected? Or, does “my term” mean, “from the moment I enter the White House until the day they carry me out feet first?” Because those are two very different propositions. And I guarantee you people won’t be walking on Mars in four years, unless Klaatu and Gort show up again on the White House lawn and decide to give us a ride. So, “my term” has ominous overtones, as I hear it.

That’s my sentiment. And then he had a few great moments when he said he wouldn’t take Kamala Harris and CNN up on their offer of an October 23 debate because “it’s too late.” (?!)

Um….then why are the candidates still doing rallies? Fine by me if the campaigns want to wrap it up and be done. I know who I’m voting for and I personally don’t believe in this mythical being The Undecided Voter in 2024, anymore than I believe in Bigfoot. No, Trump is scared to death to get on the same stage again with Kamala Harris and this just underscores that fact. This next one I love. Trump actually threatens the co-chair of the RNC.

Then later on he said Kamala wanted to hide under the table. I sure hope there’s as much room under the table in question than there is under the bus where Trump keeps throwing people.

Oh, she hid under the desk. Excuse me. Everybody was headed for the space beneath the furniture, in any event. I think Trump needs to gather his French fries and his blankey and go under a piece of furniture and stay there. In fact, that would probably stop his continuing downward trend in the polls. He should just stay home. Maybe Chris and Susie should suggest that.

Now you notice that Mark Robinson did not show up today — in person, that is. However, Robinson is very much there. The Lincoln Project did geolocated ads, so that anybody getting on their phone in this crowd and around the perimeter, is going to see this pop up.

Again, Trump might do well to stop the rallies and the campaigning, because this is only going to escalate over the next 44 days. I can tell you that my car radio is filled with anti-Project 2025 ads and other things put out there by Harris/Walz in the swing states. They are doing a boffo job. Back to the rally, it was basically the same old material, tired and trite.

Yawn. This is when they start heading for the exits.

“Villages?” Anybody here grow up in a village? I grew up in a suburb. You? Villagers put me in mind of people who wear loin clothes and carry spears. And you know Trump doesn’t want to protect those folks. Or, he could be talking about Middle Earth. Those villages. Where the night birds fly? Yes, those.

I guess the displaced autoworkers will have to help the villagers hunt and gather. Anybody have a better idea? And here’s Trump with the patronizing female dream.

I’ll tell you right now what Donald Trump can do to lift my morale as a woman and that’s report to prison. For me, that will be ten times, nay a thousand times, better than watching Tricky Dick get on the helicopter back in 1974.

That was it. Bow-ring. It’s not 2016, Donald. You’re not an iconoclast. You’re just a has been. And you’re a has been who’s about to learn about accountability when you lose this election, bigly, and then the wheels of justice will gnash their metal teeth as they come to claim you for their own. There’s no escape, Donald.

  1. As a native son of NC I’m really disappointed there were no stories of grown men with tears in their eyes asking to go to the Mars village where women are happy all the time. It seems they are pretty pissed here on earth. Beam me up Scotty!

  2. It is strange that a black billionaire who has been convicted of nothing is denied bail until trial because he is deemed a “threat to the community” and a “flight risk” while a white “billionaire”, who is a 34x convicted felon and adjudicated sex offender who is, by the judging standard, a threat to the community and a flight risk is allowed to remain free and even run for President of the United States.

    You can’t say in this case that justice is being bought…..so what is it exactly???

    Hmmmm…….

    • Children, can you say systemic racism?

      For decades, and for all I know this STILL goes on, white people got hand slapped for cocaine possession while people of color having the same shit were put in prison for fucking DECADES because they had “crack cocaine”. And it was all the same shit, just different skin coloring.

      Anytime any fucking wipipo say there’s no such thing as systemic racism, have heart attacks about teaching facts about race in this country, and all the other wipipo crap they come up with about racial inequalities (i.e. it doesn’t exist), I look at them like they should immediately be institutionalized and walk away quickly just in case the stupidity is contagious.

  3. So, Donald doesn’t want to do another debate because of the “early voting” already going on? I thought he didn’t believe in early voting, that it’s all some sort of voter fraud. And, even if people are voting early, does he not have faith in his demented supporters who’ve taken over a number of elections boards across the country to do his bidding and just “lose” some of those ballots (especially the ones that have a name that’s not Donald Trump as the presidential choice)?

  4. I grew up part of my life, in a village. That is what it was called when my parents had a home built there. I can tell you, coming from a large city, the culture shock was unbelievable and the thing is, it was less than 25 miles as the crow flies.

    It transitioned into a town withing a few years and for all I know they call it a city now-smaller burgs in MT are called cities so why not. When I left that state there were still incorporated areas that were designated as villages. Is it a midwest thing? Not sure but we had them and I grew up in the midwest.

  5. Mares before the end of his term?
    Should be interesting: first of all, the closest Mars will be in the near future will be in December 2025 (then it moves further away). OK -0 at that it will take a bare minimum of 9 months (possibly longer). Now that will require a very large ship (not the three man Apollo one) with sufficient space for fuel (needed for return journey), food for at least 2 – 3 years (no crops on Mars) plus a lander and sufficient fuel for it to land and return at least once.

    You could be looking at a 3 – 4 YEAR round trip (provided nothing goes wrong) and, from experience gained in ISS, the longest a human can really survive at zero G without permanent problems is about a year.

    Some form of artificial gravity will be needed – that would have the ship spinning at a high enough rate to produce enough gravity to overcome the problem, or run under constant acceleration for the same result. Now NASA has been tinkering with a fusion reaction motor for years (and are still nowhere close to getting the bugs out so that the Muskrat would be able to ‘develop’ it for his SpaceX ego massager)

    Chances of all that coming together during ANY presidential term (even a double one) isn’t going to happen any time in the near future.

    But hey, the Donald has spoken (like ‘we’re building a wall and Mexico will pay for it’ among other things)

  6. Oh, Donnie, be specific! 🤣 The Earth got to Mars in 1971…it was the Soviet Union’s probe! Many countries, some joining together, have been exploring Mars continuously since then! Maybe you mean crew missions…very sci-fi and you’ll be dead a long time before that is possible! What even makes the lump of syphilis cheese in your head thinks Mars is a worthwhile trip? Why? I don’t wanna go to Mars and I guarantee I wouldn’t go on Elon’s Space X! I’d end up as unidentifiable goo after the launchpad explosion! Elon on Mars is a pretense of a plan. And, just like your health care nonsense, it is just a “concept of a plan!” No thanks! 😳
