What goes unsaid about Kamala Harris is that she is really a Canadian. Yeah, yeah, she was born in the US to US parents. But moved to Canada when she was 12 and spent the most important years of her life, the next five, living in Canada.

In a relay race a smooth handoff is needed to win. In Kamala Harris's first week she raised $200 million and signed up 170,000 volunteers.

Clint Eastwood said it best and I'll give Trump credit for it he knows it as well.

He should be ashamed for attacking Joe because Joe has a disability and can't have kids. A respected veteran and all that as well. Politics is poisoning everything thats good and right in America. I'm a bit confused though about republicans poking fun at the rich. Aren't the rich to be celebrated and whoreshipped in the US?

I find such PA's on childless families to be unnecessary and repugnant. Just because Vance and his MAGA crowd has lambasted them to have less worth than families with 1/2 dozen kids .IMO Joe and other childless families are equally important. Has equal worth. Jerry himself has called for population reduction to save the planet for future generations. While Jerry enjoys a known fixed income, poor Joe is subject to the uncertainties of stock markets. Such uncertainties is very stressful. Never knowing if he has to lay off a 25 y.o. Filipino stewardess who has relatives to support. As for his grand-niece, Joe knows that protecting her government and keeping the GOP-MAGA hordes at bay from seizing the capital. Is more important than a short term loss in college funds.

That pretty much covers it. The whole world sees Trump that way except for his base. All of which was known before he was elected which is the surprising part.

I see the political pressure to release the innocent. IMO the US should paint a F-16 in Ukrainian colors and camo. Name the F-16 "A present to President Putin from Innocent Prisoner ________" Then help Ukraine take out the Putin-Kerch bridge with some well placed 2000 pounders. Publish pictures of the successful bombing mission(s) painted on the jets. A win all around. Yeah, yeah I know the US isn't giving Ukraine any F-16s directly.

Its hard to watch, but here is the latest video on you-tube from Psycho-Pac. Its George Conways's anti-Trump attack channel/PAC. Evidently Trump flipped out in a fit of Big Mac throwing rage when he viewed one of the first ones. George Conway’s Anti-Psychopath PAC Targets Trump’s Cognitive Blunders on TV IMO no normal person will full faculties could make so many stupid, ignorant.... well you'll just have to watch it.

One of the prisoners being swapped is a Russian FSB convicted murderer. "Vadim Krasikov released, the sources said. Krasikov was convicted in December of murdering a former Chechen fighter, Zelimkhan “Tornike” Khangoshvili, in Berlin’s Kleiner Tiergarten in 2019 and sentenced to life in prison. " Reporting in the EU Politico suggest that Putin feels Biden is soft on such prisoner swaps. That Trump has said Russia will " Get nothing" in any exchanges. It may be a pyrrhic victory to once again reward Putin for the taking of innocent hostages. Such that he can later exchange them for his murdering spies. This isn't the first time Putin has benefited from his hostage scams.

Thats the reason why Trump can jump from topic to topic in the same sentence. Yet his adoring base can make sense of it all.

I'd send her my .72342527 US Dollars but I don't want Homeland Security on my ass when I visit next.

Bravo's all around or as the British would say, brilliant. I think its time to run up the American flag.

Trump's stupidity is always a given. I'm familiar with Washington Week. The very idea that he would sit down with a class of Black reporters then deny Kamala's heritage is the height of chutzpah. After all she has been VP for 3 & 1/2 years. I assume he is merely writing off educated Black voters and looking for the MAGA Black voter. Someone who only listens to the right wing media space. That playbook worked in his first election and failed in his second. But like an old blind horse looking for a drink. He goes back to a well thats been dry for years, hoping it holds water now.

The reporting in that story are different from this NYT report: "Mr. Trump’s remarks prompted gasps and jeers from the audience at the National Association of Black Journalists in Chicago. The former president’s combative appearance there was one of the most unusual of the campaign so far as he sparred with reporters over diversity efforts, repeated falsehoods about a range of subjects and told the group that he was “the best president for the Black population” since Abraham Lincoln."..." he called for “investigations” into the former president’s true birthplace and suggested Mr. Obama’s birth certificate was a lie.... “I came onto a stage like this and I got treated so rudely,” he complained at one point. Reporters in the room repeatedly scoffed as Mr. Trump made disparaging remarks

Sadly even that wasn't enough for a pass.

Back in the late 60's there were many Americans who thought that the US stood for good in the world. Those were the pre-FOX, the pre-MAGA days. Now for millions bone spurs are celebrated. Where the state represents a massive gravy dish and the objective to to get as much as you can. Before anybody else gets a single drop of it.

For Jebus followers you don't have to say your prayers out loud to be heard by him. For Trump followers the message can be said out loud or implied. The messaging is taken to heart either way. Its always been that way for cults.
-
If he did that who would suffer the most in the confines of prison, Trump or Clarence Thomas?

There was recently a post in SC about the greatness of crypto, how its the new currency of Jebus and the right. "Trump declared “on day one I will fire Gary Gensler”, the SEC chair nominated by current President Joe Biden. The crowd cheered loudly and started to chant “Trump” at this declaration." in a recent speech. He wants the US to become a "crypto capital of the world" With the US govt buying it and "never selling it". It goes hand in hand with his wanting to disband the IRS. Nothing that billionaire criminals want more than no tax mechanism of the state and complete freedom to move money around.

The NYT had a very good story about how the right wing media pulls people into its beliefs system. Racked by Pain and Enraptured by a Right-Wing Miracle Cure A former army paratrooper and horse wrangler his body has paid a heavy price. "On the other end of his phone were hundreds of people in a live voice chat for Patriot Party News, one of about a dozen far-right media platforms that has grown in both size and influence over the past few years, not only by creating an ecosystem of disinformation but also by providing an authentic sense of community. The company was co-founded in 2020 by Warren Armour, a conservative with no media experience who runs a flooring company in Tennessee, but Michael admired the Patriot Party News slogan when he first saw it shared on Facebook last year: “If you hate mainstream media, you are going to love us!” Once you go down the rabbit hole, you never come back.

Trump and republicans "Not gonna happen. We worked hard for the fix and we are not giving it up". Democrats will have to promise a moderate and centralist agenda. To win the presidency, the house and the senate. Then they can go to work on common sense and integrity in the courts.
-
Coreece will be along shortly to explain it all.Blaming it on liberals and then denying he ever said or implied said representations. Doesn't the ninth commandment forbid such misrepresentations of fact? Or have evangelicals not recognized the 12 commandments now that they made the overarching Trump whoreshiping pact.
-
Perhaps Trump's head is proportioned like his hands?
-
Did you mix up America with another country?

I've seen more blood from a mosquito bite. But it plays well to support his martyr image with his base.
