I think my brain crashed to desktop after this was sent to me, but here you go.

I do know for a fact that the commencement speaker claim checks out, as I have family who was at a reception with him before the ceremony and reported back he was a complete loving toolbag.

I don't understand what's going on here. Are these people even the same as the people in the photo with Vance, or are they just reciting some words from an interview the "Disney Adult swingers couple" gave? Who are even the "Disney Adult swingers couple", and why would I care about them (apart from them exposing Vance's "family values")?

They're miming "Never Have I Ever", a drinking game, basically one person calls out things and you put your finger down if you've done them. By putting their fingers down after the story, they're acknowledging the story actually happened, in the most obnoxious way possible.

He’s so loving weird.

quote:

It's been said before, but it always bears repeating. If Trump's nonsense weren't real (and therefore worrying) it would fit perfectly on arrested development or always sunny.

Among his hits:

He accidentally wins the election.

He hocks beans from the oval office.

He serves cold piles of mcdonalds to his guests.

He tells the public to inject bleach.

The entire four seasons fiasco is just an absolutely perfect SNL skit every writer dreams of coming up with.

He gets shot at and wears a loving ear pillow for a week, but nobody cares because the rival he's spent years attacking drops out.

And it seems like, in an effort to break back into the news cycle, the best his team could come up with was "what if we desecrate a graveyard. That'll get people talking.

You'd better buckle down because the stupid is about to accelerate. How do I know?

Congress is back on the 9th.

The usual chucklefucks are expected to release an Afghanistan withdrawal report (Kamala did everything!!!!) on the same day as the debate, the 10th. And there's still no continuing resolution, so that has to be worked out this month.

Wheeeeeeee!

Which by the way, the Arlington scandal is still ongoing. I believe Saturday was Day 5 and that continued because Kamala made a post calling it abhorrent.

That then led to Sunday, Day 6, where Donnie had some of the victims' families (mostly the ones that spoke at the RNC) cut ads and make statements on his behalf, totally uncoached, absolutely unprompted.


Donnie Goodbrains posted:

“Thank you for saying you wanted me to stand with you at Arlington National Ceremony, and take pictures, that it was your request, not mine, but it was my great honor to do so,”

And the latest nonsense is that a few of the families and Donnie are claiming that both Biden and Kamala were invited (no) so they were disrespecting gold star families by not coming. Should fit nicely into the overall Kamala campaign argument of "he will use anybody, everybody, and everything, no matter how disgraceful, because he's only out for himself".

Yeah I saw that "Biden/Kamala skipped the Arlington Event" thing trotted out earlier today and was confused because there was no event, Donnie desecrated Section 60 by stomping all over Federal laws bringing in a loving camera crew to shoot a political ad, but there was no event anyone was invited to.

The only reason I'm a bit more relaxed this year as compared to 2020 is, at least at this juncture, it feels like she has a decent to, dare I say it, good? chance of putting Durr Fuhrer away once and for all.

4 years ago at this point, I felt as though there was a solid chance we would be looking at the Eternal President coming up on the start of what would have been his third term.

I don’t think he’ll be dead by 2028, but it’s extremely likely he won’t be able to form enough coherence to actually run a campaign. Hell, he can barely manage it now.

When the GOP gets trashed in November, there won’t be any support for him to take a stab at 2028.

New Statesman: Donald Trump is losing it
His alarming cognitive decline deserves the scrutiny that Joe Biden received.

quote:

It could be that the debate over whether it’s acceptable to call Trump mentally unfit to be president is at the heart of the weird debate over who is more weird, the Democrats or the Republicans. America is becoming unrecognisable, so fast, in so many ways, to so many different types of people, that the words “weird” and “sick” are being anxiously domesticated into neutral terms of description. Yet, in the end, the unclarity is all the more reason to be vigilant about truly aberrant figures slipping into leadership of the country under the cover of a revolution of norms. Trump is truly aberrant. Everyone knows it, his supporters as much as his detractors. No one talks like this man. No one abuses other people like this man. No one misrepresents reality like this man. And he is not lying. He is describing what he perceives, which is not what is actually there.

I love that the fuckers who resort so quickly to school age insults just cannot stand being called weird, regardless of which side of the ocean they're on. They can't just take the insult and ignore it. You know, like a normal adult.

Well yeah because Trump is basically embezzling all the RNC's money so nothing to spare for the GOP.
