Biden’s Fading, Beto’s Flailing, and DeBlasio’s Just Wasting Everyone’s Time

Today’s Campaign Update, Part II (Because The Campaign Never Ends)

I know it’s a repugnant subject, but let’s talk Democrat politics this morning. – First, we’ve had Irish Bob O’Rourke re-boot his failed campaign this week, and boy what a massive fail that has been. As part of his “reintroduction to America”, he live-streamed himself having a haircut and massage! I swear I do not make this stuff up.:

Oh, he also appeared with the four nagging, substance-devoid shrews on The View, which I suppose meant that Tuesday’s episode of The View actually featured five nagging, substance-devoid shrews. There, he apologized for his being white, male and privileged, and the very next day he’s got a video up of him having a hair cut and massage. Why do I get the feeling that, before the week is over, Irish Bob is going to announce that next week he will re-re-boot his failed campaign?

Here’s the amazing thing about that video: Some supposedly “professional” campaign advisors told Irish Bob that that was just a fab-o idea. Well, they probably didn’t use the term “fab-o” since they’re probably all under the age of 80 or so, but still.

Seriously, who in their right mind would think that this is a good look for their candidate? No wonder Donald Trump decided not to listen to such “professional” advisors during his 2015-16 campaign.

Speaking of truly awful political ideas… – Bill DeBlasio is now a candidate for president! Aren’t y’all thrilled out there in Flyover Country? Yeah, neither are the people whose lives he has helped to make miserable – the citizens of New York City – 76% of whom told a pollster this week that their communist Mayor really should not go down this road.

The James-Comey-tall Mayor first announced his candidacy at a Monday event Trump Tower, which some idiot told him was a very clever idea. That is, until he was mocked by protesters riding down the escalator behind him carrying pro-Trump signs. How is that none of these campaign “professionals” thought that it might be a lousy idea to place their candidate in front of a public escalator?

The Marxist Mayor then traveled to Iowa for a kickoff rally. There, the people who printed the signage for the event misspelled his name as “DiBlasio”. Since only a few dozen showed for the event – and who knows how many of them could even read – it didn’t really much matter.

In any event, DeBlasio joins New York Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand as Empire State presidential candidates who have literally no rationale at all for entering this race. They will both leave the race without having won a single delegate to next year’s national convention.

Hey, there’s nobody in the field named George yet – maybe he should run, too! – Over in London, dimwitted actor George Clooney told the assembled press that “we are facing a pretty absurd time in our lives.” No word if he was referring to the 2020 Democrat presidential field, but he should have been.

The Biden Juggernaut is already fading. – When Joe Biden kicked off his campaign at the first of May, I told you that he would experience the best polling numbers of the entire campaign season in the first 2-3 weeks following his announcement. Sure enough, he did put up some phenomenal numbers in the first few polls issued early this month, rising to as high as 46% support in a poll put out by The Hill and 44% in the Harvard/Harris poll. Very impressive given the number of candidates in the field.

But very predictably, the bloom is already coming off the Biden rose, as the excitement among the deluded Democrat voter base fades and the reality of the energy-devoid, elderly candidate-who-has-been-wrong-about-everything-for-half-a-century sets in.

We’ve seen two new polls this week, and Biden is sub-40% in both, sitting at 39% in Morning Consult and 33% in the Emerson poll. The Emerson poll is the most current, having been conducted from May 10 through May 14.

Karl Rove, whose political analyses stopped being in any way relevant along about April of 2015, was on Fox News on Wednesday marveling at Biden’s 23-point lead over The Commie in the also no-longer-relevant RealClearPolitics average of polls, but that lead will be down to less than 10 in a month, and will be completely gone by October.

Joe Biden is this cycle’s Jeb! Bush, the guy with all the establishment support, a ton of money, zero energy and, at the end of the day, zero appeal to the people who actually vote in these nominating primaries. I still think his campaign ought to just start calling him Joe! and get it all over with.

That is all.

Weak field. Not likely to get stronger.

Once indictments come out (and they will) the Dem base will #WalkAway some more.

I think Trump wins in a landslide with very comfortable margins in House and Senate. Second term should be a beautiful thing.

An anonymous source tells me that Irish Bob is going to live-stream his prostate exam next week.

I think he's talking about the Klueless Kraut.

True True. Rove is Dicky Morris II.

So, Jay Inslee’s got a chance?

Or a very violent thing. All Trump’s fault, of course.

He might as well.

So many clowns running it's diluting any real solid support for any of them.
As time goes on, they will begin to attack each other to gain any traction and be so vile that none will support the winner or even the nominee.
The voters will stay home because 'their guy' was insulted by 'so and so', or didn't win.

In the meantime, I'm buying stocks in popcorn. Just watching this Dem train wreck is going to be hilarious.

"Biden’s Fading, Beto’s Flailing, and DeBlasio’s Just Wasting Everyone’s Time"

In newspapers of towns around dairy farm pastures, are there regular reports describing the number, relative size, and condition of cow patties?

[Sa-teef]

Still relevant with the dismal crew in the great race to oblivion....

Even pigs wouldn't welcome this cabal.

[ek_hornbeck]

When the Democrats have their first Presidential primary debate, there will be more people on stage than in the audience.

["Beto" O'Rourke] also appeared with the four nagging, substance-devoid shrews on The View, which I suppose meant that Tuesday’s episode of The View actually featured five nagging, substance-devoid shrews. There, he apologized for his being white, male and privileged

O'Rourke's message: "Vote for me - I hate myself for being a white man." It must be cognitive dissonance hell to juggle affected racial self-hatred with extreme narcissism in the same otherwise empty head. All I can think of O'Rourke's candidacy is that he must be there to make the rest of the clown pack look good by comparison. If that's the goal, he's doing a great job.

Oh, please! Don’t suggest that! He’s just wacky enough to do it!

[texas booster]

IMO all these early candidates are just keeping the media off Trump, and are priming the Dems to call out for a savior.

Priming the pumps for Michelle or an even more leftist candidate.

[I want the USA back]

You have a blubbering old lecherous fool, a self-absorbed narcissist and an arrogant America-hating totalitarian. A man “married” to a man, an angry Black separatist, and a woman who thinks she’s Black. Not a single decent one in the bunch.

THIS is the democrat party of 2019.

Over in London, dimwitted actor George Clooney told the press, “we are facing a pretty absurd time in our lives.”

Mmmmmmmm......he means the 2020 Democrat slate, of course.

But "absurd" covers so many of the dorks.

Did Clooney mean Beto, Biden, Bernie, Spartacus, the silent Latino Castro, horizontal Harris?

So-o-o-o-o many absurdities.......

[Liz]

Bill DeBlasio is now a candidate...... aren’t y’all thrilled out there in Flyover Country?
Yeah, neither are the citizens of NYC – 76% of whom told a pollster the Mayor really should not go down this road.

He won the mayor's seat with 72% of the vote....after he had the number tattooed on his wife's a**
to double the thrill, DiBlobbio began making plans for the pesidency.

But, Pray Tell, Where Does De Blasio Get The Money For His Eternal Presidnteial Campaign Trips?
NEWS CLIP BY Marcia Kramer, CBS News, April 5, 2019 / FR Posted by EinNYC

.....ethical questions are being raised about where he’s getting all the money to fund his cross-country presidential campaign trips.“On The Road Bill,” the mail-it-in mayor of New York City has been galloping all over the country to test the presidential waters with a suspicious campaign cash box that’s raising lots of eyebrows. “To me, that’s a real no-no,” Betsy Gotbaum of the Citizens Union said. Gotbaum is questioning how de Blasio is raising money for his “Fairness PAC” – the political action committee that is allowing the mayor to dream about running the country.“Is it the appearance of something wrong?” CBS2’s Marcia Kramer asked .......

REALITY CHECK--De Blobbio gave his wife $850 million tax dollars for (cough) mental health projects.
But she can't account for the 41 programs (money laundries) supposedly spending staggering amounts of tax dollars......

NOTE: De Blobbio has raised so many presidential trial balloons ...the gas company is running out of helium.
