It’s psy ops time, ladies and gentlemen. And yes, Lincoln Project delivers once again. Their latest ad is guaranteed to have Donald Trump phoning Dr. Feelgood on the phone, (let’s hope Ronny’s awake and sober) while he smashes all the bottles against the wall. Forget about ketchup, the pill bottles, the makeup bottles, the Diet Coke bottles, they will all be harshly introduced to the Mar-a-Lago walls when this little opus shows up on Palm Beach TV. Ouch.
The hilarity of this is that people who never saw eye to eye on much of anything are now united against this bozo. If Liz Cheney ever cast a vote I agreed with, I don’t know about it. But I applaud her work on the January 6 Committee and her stance on Trump thereafter. And if you had ever told me that Dick Cheney and I would be voting for the same presidential candidate, I would have collapsed laughing. I well remember when Cheney/Satan bumper stickers were on Los Angeles cars back in the day, in anticipation of the next memorable Republican ticket. The most insightful comment Steve Bannon ever made was when he spoke of “power” and linked “Darth Vadar, Dick Cheney, and Satan” in the same sentence. Amen to that.
But yes, Hell has apparently turned into Ice Station Zebra, because Dick, and Liz and I (and all of you) and the rest of our Democratic party, plus a bunch of Republicans and Independents are voting for Kamala Harris. I would never thought I would have lived to see the day.
But life is filled with many wonders. On Election Night 2008 Jesse Jackson was consumed in tears. He said, “I never thought I’d live to see the first Black president.” But he did. And now it looks like we’re going to see the first female president in our lifetimes. Ain’t that somethin’?
And the sublime irony is in the closing frames of this mini-epic. “In a divided country we finally came together. Who would have thought that Donald Trump would be the one to do it?”
But again I caution: Don’t get complacent. We need to work. We need to MAKE this happen. Don’t just assume. Trump already made an ass out of you and me in 2016. Let’s not get fooled again.
“Whoever did the debate prep should be fired.”
Christie is absolutely right. But Donald, do you now think Tulsi might have been a plant? Those Democrats are a cunning bunch.
Go with it.
Tulsi is on Vladimir’s payroll. Who knows what Putey has planned for Comrade Pee Tape? I certainly don’t. In fact, Putin may have moved on to other useful idiots.
What I’m waiting for is the post-Nuremburg effect. After the Nuremberg trials many Nazis swore that they never really were Nazis, they just had to pretend to be to survive. I can’t wait to hear Mike Lee, Lindsey Graham, Josh Hawley, the lot of them recant.
She won’t remain on Vlad’s payroll if Trump loses. It’s not exactly a secure employment situation for her to begin with. Vlad could find himself suffering from a ‘9mm headache’ literally at any moment these days. The man is scared of his own shadow. Hell, if he has a meeting with some general or other bigwig they get everything but strip searched (and maybe that actually happens) before being allowed in the room with Pootie. And then HE sits at one end of a forty or fifty foot table so there’s plenty of time for his Praetorian Guard to shoot that person if they try to come down the table and kill Pootie with their bare hands. That’s how scared he is. How is medical situation is going is anyone’s guess at this point. There were reports of stomach cancer. But he’s still alive and kicking giving proof to the old saying that only the good die young.
Still, he could be gone from this earthly existence and in short order. Unlike Tucker Carlson Gabbard didn’t inherit a vast fortune and if she’s banking on a comfy finanical existence from working for Pootie to manipulate/prop up Trump I don’t think she’s in a very solid postion.
One of my favorite rock bands, I saw live when Keith Moon was still living in the early 70s, was the Who. The song Won’t Get Fooled Again comes to mind.
I doubt that anyone who “prepared” tfg could have done any better. He did what he always does. He went off into his schtick. He can’t help himself. He’s too addle brained and demented and can’t stay focused. He never could but now that dementia is setting in, it’s so much worse.
Of course he’ll fire someone – he has to blame someone else, as usual, for his own bad behavior. However, the firing won’t come until he finally lets go of the delusion that he was the winner and those magical polls are no longer in his fantasies.
Definitely heads will roll, but Trump won’t do it himself, he’s chickenshit through and through. He’ll delegate the firing to some lackey, as he always has done.
There’s a great meme circulating today about an extreme post-birth abortion: On television Tuesday night a woman murdered a 78 year-old baby!! 🤯🤣
