Disturbing GOP Ads Surface after Trump Rally Shooting

#NoMAGA #StopMAGA
Be warned, friends, the campaign ads shown in this video are violent. That's what MAGA is all about, after all, violence...violence and lies. One ad depicts Democrats as Klansmen.

We need to recognize and continually point out that this is not normal political rhetoric, but rather an appeal to voters' bassest instincts, to their lowest nature. By doing so, of course, they demean the very voter's they're trying to win over by saying to them, "You can only understand an action movie or a video game. You can't be expected to understand policy. Vote for me, Heep Big Action Hero, and I'll take care of the mean old bad guys for you.

Any way you slice it, they're despicable. Vote Blue

Post debate panic? What post debate panic would that be?

As usual, the American man in the street shows a lot more commonsense than the media. A new report from a consortium of major universities finds, unsurprisingly to anyone who has a brain and uses it on a regular basis, that the June 27 debate caused exactly zero panicked rush to dump Pres. Biden amongst ordinary folks.

Democrats who are calling for Biden’s removal are playing into a crisis that the media created. There is no statistical support for the idea that voters have left Biden or that there is an urgent need for Democrats to replace their nominee. The Biden debate crisis appears to be a media construct that panicked Democratic elites have played into. President Biden is doing a better job than Donald Trump of holding on to his supporters.

Thinking about things and a supergirl fantasy

It seems Don Jr. has just as many bats in the belfry as Dear Old Dad. He’s concerned about Marco Rubio as Trump’s running mate. According to Don Jr., once the ticket is elected nefarious forces (he might have named them, I don’t remember) will force Trump into the background and shine the spotlight on Rubio. Uhuh. Well, I guess it’s nice to see filial concern. :P

Actually, I had forgotten about the news item until this morning, when it surfaced. Up to now, I hadn’t given any thought to Trump’s VP pick, but remembering the article got me thinking. You know who the perfect choice would be? Marjorie Taylor Green. Follow me here. My reasoning is that, once the MAGA ticket is thoroughly trounced, her political career will be over. Remember Sarah Palen? After her half a term as governor, she sank without a trace; and, that was a run of the mill presidential campaign. With Trump and Co. plowed under, presumably everybody concerned will be, shall we say, toast.

And, can you imagine the VP debate? Harris would chop Green into mincemeat and Green wouldn’t even know what hit her. Thinking about that gives me a great deal of pleasure. I’d love to see Green put in her place. Even more, I’d love to see her have to go crawling back to Georgia 14 in disgrace – ignorant, bullying piece of filth that she is.
