Election 2024 Foreplay

  1. Big loser of the week = Kamala Harris

    The RNC Convention and the attack on Trump have successfully diverted attention away from removing Joe for a few days and that effort was so fragile that that is all that was needed. The dem's confidence in Joe remains in the toilet but he has successfully run out the clock. Or will have by the end of next week. The limited timetable to replace him is unforgiving.

    Next. JD Vance vis a vis Kamala? Cmon' Man. A debate like that can go very badly. Refer to Biden for more on that?

    Dems are frozen like deer in the headlights. Donors are not giving to Biden and will not be holding out to give to Kamala either- and it is too late for others to enter without just signing up to lose either at the mini-primary level or at the Nov. election. How much fun is that.

    Yeh, we get it dems. "Democrats will begin to rally back around Biden now that they see they have no choice." Sure, okay. And that true to some mediocre degree. It's like climbing into a wet bathing suit for them though.

    What a mess.

    That's possible. But, since I learned politics from a movie, I can only offer the following:

    Young men make wars, and the virtues of war are the virtues of young men: courage, and hope for the future. Then old men make the peace, and the vices of peace are the vices of old men: mistrust and caution.​

    So, it makes some sense that Trump can not surround himself with "ordinary men" all the time. We'll see how it turns out.

    Well oh great and powerful Oracle of ET politics....
    Your humble servant VZ attempted to inform you on this one.
    Not bragging, but like I said, even though Trump despises dogs.... and I can appreciate that.... shedding sucks, or at the least it is a lot of work if you want a spotless abode... which Trump is all about....but Trump reads people. As in voters. As do I. Voters AND Trump.
    "Sources close to the Trump campaign told The Post that Noem had tanked her chances after writing about killing her dog in her memoir."

    Hahhaahahahh.
    Weak
    Extremely weak.
    Up until last Friday, I was hung like Man-O-War too.
    I'm sure we both have documents to prove it.

    But when the rubber hits the road......
