After the debate, Americans wondered who was in charge. But at Pride in Manhattan, donors, celebrities, and LGBTQ activists told Olivia Reingold they were all in.
It seems bizarre campaign strategy to attend a function in a city where you are likely to win overwhelmingly and preach to the choir, rather than going to a swing state where you are, as of now, likely to lose.
These bubble people are gaslit, swimming in Kool Aid, and in extreme denial. They are Biden Literally No Matter What. And they call their opponents cultists??? This right here was the definition of cult-like behavior.
I think these folks have not seen or do not respect male leadership. I don't think they have any idea how men persuade and influence each other. A stumbling old man who cannot spontaneously command a room is ineffective as a leader. What game are they playing here?
At least Michael J Fox admitted to having Parkinson’s. He lucked out and didn’t have the dementia aspect as you know who. He was smart enough to realize you can’t fool people when you suddenly start shuffling and have to have your wife as your handler 24/7.
No, Joe does not make good decisions. Pity we can't ask the 13 Americans who died as a result of his decisions. And I have seriously doubt that he is the one making the decisions. Disclaimer, I have never voted for, nor do I intend to vote for Trump. The Democrat party has failed miserably at offering a candidate who has the capability to be president in what I fear are increasingly perilous times.
He was told to hit all the intersectionality points. I have long said that the Democrats' archetypal constituent is a transgender illegal immigrant who wants an abortion.
This keeps getting repeated and it’s not accurate: “the 81-year-old president is too old for the job”
His age is not the specific problem. We’ve all known very sharp octogenarians. My grandmother at 90 was mentally sharper than Biden (she died at age 93). Biden is in clear mental decline and has been since the 2020 campaign though it’s clearly gotten worse, THAT’S the problem.
Someone please make a meme of Dido's "white flag" playing over and over with a montage of Biden photos from the debate. I'm begging you.
Their arrogance is astounding. How nice it would have been to just let Dean-o challenge him in the primary? Or embrace Kennedy? Nope. Now we watch elder abuse.
here for all of it! I have no choice but to laugh at this....the reality is so very sad. And I legit have had that dido song earworm since the debate. I appreciate the new soundtrack to this train wreck.
They thought we were stupid. They thought we were idiots. They still do. They're rewriting history now like they're Outer Party functionaries in the Ministry of Truth. There's a problem though. We still have memories, we can call, Bullshit! And we're not alone.
The Democrats' contempt for the electorate - not just conservatives but especially their OWN voters - knows no bounds. I've known this for a long time.
A new center is gathering up as the heat of the level of corruption and lies rises. The eye is gaining cohesion. The outer bands extend hundreds of miles. The barometer plummeting and storm gains momentum. It's coming.
Shallow, Self-Serving Sycophants. The idea that conservative people don't believe in the rights of the LGB community is pure falsehood. I cheered when marriage rights were secured. I helped my stepson come out to his parents when he was 15. Human rights belong to all humans, trans and otherwise. But your sexuality does not and should not confer special privileges upon you. America has, time and again, done the right thing. We abolished slavery, we recognized the rights of people who love each other regardless of gender, we are a plucky and caring and outspoken nation. It's time for us to send the children in charge to their rooms for a long timeout so that we can clean up the mess.
Why has no one mentioned that Biden said $500 billion over 10 years would pay off the national debt? Either he thinks we owe 17 times less than we actually do or he confused the national debt with all the student loans he plans to pay off.
I have been asking y'all for a year to get to the bottom of who the hell is acting as President and it's clearly not Joe. If I were a Dem voter I'd be asking myself how we got in this mess. Why did the party kneecap Bernie- twice? Why did they do the same to RFKJr? Why did they settle on the heinous Hillary and the smarmy smart ass second rater Joe? Who the hell made the decision to install the mouth breathing idiot Kamala as VP? They have painted themselves into a corner. They are exquisitely screwed and have been since these clowns were elected.
The only thing you need to know at this point is that guy who calls the shots in the Dem party James Clyborn said that if it's not Biden then it will be Kamala. Or so he thinks. I'd be fortifying my security detail if I were him. Hillary has other ideas and is tanned and rested and ready to plant her ample ass in the oval office at last. So if Obama is calling the shots- how did he fuck it up this badly? Huh?
I largely agree, but Bernie sucks. I'm from Vermont so I'm familiar with his politics. He has written more bills than anybody else, but has gotten none of them passed. He can give a good speech, but he's not someone you want running the country.
There is no inner party, no kingpin, no mastermind behind it all, that's how. Hillary won because lots of people liked her better than Bernie. The party tilted in her favor because they believed (correctly) that a guy who went to the Soviet Union on his honeymoon might very well lose one of those 49 state blowouts.
Biden won in 2020 because James Clyburn was entranced by his promise to nominate a black woman to the Supreme Court, and his endorsement meant a lot in South Carolina.
We ended up with Kamala because the Dems are all-in on DEI, which narrowed the field. and she's a black woman. (Or, rather, partially black, like Obama.)
There's no master plan or devious supervillain making these choices. Stuff just happens.
Sure. You believe what you like. The situation they are in is a result of random stuff happening over which no person associated with the Party has any control. And you are OK with that? The real issue here is that WE HAVE NO PRESIDENT. I read the 25th amendment twice yesterday and apparently it's up to Joe or his cabinet neither of whom are disposed to do the right thing and remove Joe from Office. Jill Biden is the villain here. Can we impeach her? Pete, this is not a partisan issue. The role of the President is sort of important which is why we conduct the elections no one has any faith in anymore.
2016 is easy - HRC gave the DNC $27 million to get them out of the financial hole her lackey Debbie Wasserman Schultz had put them in. From that point on, her staff was running the party and all donations to the party went directly to her campaign. I don't know if $27 million rents the DNC for a cycle or buys it outright.
Why no to RFK? Because Large Corporate Donors and beltway insiders are terrified of him.
LGB - lose the T - IA - WTF - LMNOP - XYZ!
This cult movement is based on regressive beliefs and is setting you back.
We mama-bears are pretty mad about stuff like this:
"Unsealed Court Documents Show That Admiral Rachel Levine Pressured WPATH To Remove Age Guidelines From The Latest Standards Of Care
A head-on collision between science and politics
JESSE SINGAL JUN 25, 2024"
https://jessesingal.substack.com/p/unsealed-court-documents-show-that
Levine is a troubled sociopath who should be tried and imprisoned - and not in a women's prison.
It seems bizarre campaign strategy to attend a function in a city where you are likely to win overwhelmingly and preach to the choir, rather than going to a swing state where you are, as of now, likely to lose.

True.
At least Michael J Fox admitted to having Parkinson’s. He lucked out and didn’t have the dementia aspect as you know who. He was smart enough to realize you can’t fool people when you suddenly start shuffling and have to have your wife as your handler 24/7.
Seeing that he's apparently a Biden supporter and donor, maybe he's not as smart as we thought. Very disappointed in him.
No, Joe does not make good decisions. Pity we can't ask the 13 Americans who died as a result of his decisions. And I have seriously doubt that he is the one making the decisions. Disclaimer, I have never voted for, nor do I intend to vote for Trump.

So interesting how Hunger Biden wants him to stay the course. All that influence peddling.
"and gives a shout-out to the local gay community—“especially trans women of color.”"
Why the last part ? Are Trans women of color the "super gays" ? Are they the epitome of queer ?
move away Elton, you're only gay, we're looking for a better class of queer.
So weird,
He was told to hit all the intersectionality points. I have long said that the Democrats' archetypal constituent is a transgender illegal immigrant who wants an abortion.
It hits the trifecta of intersectionality, gay, color, trans.
So typical. So thoroughly broken. Leftism is rapidly drinking up the scum in the amoeba slime pit.
It’s really cool how the NYC gays named their love hotel after General Jackson, one of America’s greatest leaders. Truly brave and inspiring.
Considering Stonewall Jackson was a Confederate general, I'm shocked it hasn't been renamed yet in the service of wokeness.

How abt. Warren Buffet?
He's one of so many examples. My dad is 83 and would win a POTUS debate against Biden right now, zero prep.
My dad and Uncle worked until 89.
Someone please make a meme of Dido's "white flag" playing over and over with a montage of Biden photos from the debate. I'm begging you.
Their arrogance is astounding. How nice it would have been to just let Dean-o challenge him in the primary? Or embrace Kennedy? Nope. Now we watch elder abuse.
Or maybe Gordon Lightfoot's "Sundown." Or Elton John "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me."

I think our Southern ladies have a saying that applies here: "Bless their hearts."
Shallow, Self-Serving Sycophants. The idea that conservative people don't believe in the rights of the LGB community is pure falsehood. I cheered when marriage rights were secured.

Indeed.
Why has no one mentioned that Biden said $500 billion over 10 years would pay off the national debt? Either he thinks we owe 17 times less than we actually do or he confused the national debt with all the student loans he plans to pay off.
because he told plenty of falsehoods and outlandish things but in addition to his dent ti admit he lied is too much for the mom.
I have been asking y'all for a year to get to the bottom of who the hell is acting as President and it's clearly not Joe. If I were a Dem voter I'd be asking myself how we got in this mess.

Obama
There is no inner party, no kingpin, no mastermind behind it all, that's how. Hillary won because lots of people liked her better than Bernie.
