Another perspective . Prof Nez brought up an interesting tidbit from the MN Dept of Human Resources, specifically concerning signs of misconduct and abuse on the part of caregivers who work with kids with special needs.

Poor kid. Hope he grows up to be a decent young man anyway.

Anything momentary can be easily interpreted positively or negatively, so I’ll leave it at that. What bothers me was the general concept of bringing an autistic person to a big noisy, dangerous place to grab the sympathy vote. I can understand a father proudly showing off his children, but both his emotionally/mentally challenged son and the brain-damaged Gabby Giffords should’ve been left out of the proceedings.

People will say the footage was cherry-picked/edited.

Give them all of Day 3. https://youtu.be/SxNb7cYrG3I

Go to the 3 hour, 38 min mark, which is near the end of Walt’s speech. You can see him, his wife, and the entire gaggle.

Walz AND his wife look worse when you watch the longer shot.

I knew he was a nasty man long before this.

God bless that poor kid.

I’ve seen people bringing very small babies to these - both the RNC and the DNC. Very stupid to do.

To be fair, if Walz kept his son away he’d also get bashed.

His son looks like a sweet kid, and was conducting himself very happily. He didn’t deserve being jerked in anger like that.

Walz has really mean eyes.

I noticed his son was so happy to congratulate & hug his Dad, Dad did not treat him well.

This is cued to just before the family joins Walz on stage.

Another eerie thing from me.
I mentioned yesterday here that I saw a dvd of the Dead Zone
the night before. I had never seen it before. Didn’t know it had any political content at all.

I said it made me remember how crucial a nominee for President can be in this dangerous world.

Now somebody references the Dead Zone for Walz. If something happens to the current nominee, imagine how horrifying a runaway Walz would be in office. Now that is horror.

If something happens before election day, would Walz automatically be their nominee? Neither would have been elected yet...

It's brutal. That look of hatred on Schmaltz's face. Just run that animated gif as an ad over and over and over and over. Get a woman crying on voiceover, maybe one of these never-Trumper pearl-clutching Freeptardettes who have way too much free time out of the kitchen...

(cue concerned music)

"Walz treats his son this way? This is the way he will abuse every American, when he let Minneapolis burn to the ground in 2020, with hundreds of Minnesota sons and daughters consumed by the marxist fires he threw gasoline on with the same anger. Vote Trump or watch your minority teenagers be crucified by this grey-haired white man."

Probably a legal war. I don’t know.

Think of the hapless voters. Prevented from having rivals to Biden on most state primaries. Biden won, and Kamala with zero delegates from voters. Then no Biden. Then possibly no Kamala. Followed by Chinese Communist uniforms and flags all over the place for Comrade Walz.

Not to mention Trump sentenced to prison time in September and many states disallowing him on ballots with the Supreme Court too timid to step in.

I want to wake up, now.

No. Not automatic.

I had seen The Dead Zone years ago and when I saw how Trump reacted to his attempted assassination I thought how different the two events were.

They keep talking about ‘saving our democracy’ while violating it at every turn.
