Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends)
Oh, my, what an embarrassment Saturday was for our Democrat friends. – Ok, they’re not really our “friends” – they’re actually enemies of the people who want to put anyone who disagrees with them on any issue from killing babies to throwing away the nation’s treasure on eliminating cow farts and building rail lines that can never be built in prison. Thus, watching them humiliate themselves in public has become a major new national pastime, a source of great joy to millions of normal Americans.
Saturday was just filled with banner episodes of this ongoing inadvertent comedy series, like this one from inexplicable presidential candidate Kirsten Gillibrand:

Seriously, any advisor who told her that was a good look that needed to be spread on social media should be summarily fired for cause. It doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of things, since Gillibrand continues to poll at or near 0 in every poll and has no shot at winning anything, but dang, girl, go buy some dignity. I hear WalMart has it on sale this weekend.
But poor Kirsten certainly had plenty of company on Saturday. Here’s the Pantsuit Princess once again blaming Russia for her humiliating 2016 loss in the presidential race. If you can stand it, watch as she engages in classic Clintonian projection by saying that “obstruction of justice did occur.”:

Or how about that always-reliable-for-a-good-laugh San Fran Nan? In the wake of President Trump’s smashing victory in obtaining major concessions from Mexico in his ongoing one-man battle to stem the flow of illegal immigrants, terrorists and drugs across our Southern border, the doddering, stammering Speaker of the House had this to say:
“President Trump undermined America’s preeminent leadership role in the world by recklessly threatening to impose tariffs on our close friend and neighbor to the south. Threats and temper tantrums are no way to negotiate foreign policy.”
Um, well, sorry Nervous Nancy, the evidence currently at hand says that threats and temper tantrums work just fine with our “neighbor to the south.” Do try to keep up, would you?
Then there was Pete Buttigieg saying this to an audience in Iowa:
“At a time like today when you can still be legally fired in so many parts of this country because of who you are or who you love, we have work to do.”
For the record, there is no place in America where anyone – gay, straight, black, brown, yellow, white, Jewish, Catholic, Protestant, Native American or anyone else – can LEGALLY be fired because of who you are or who you love. Hard stop, as AOC loves to say.
That is a damnable lie, and if we had anything resembling an honest news media in our country, he would be forced to provide specific examples of where he believes numerous federal laws banning any such practice do not apply in the United States of America.
But we don’t have an honest news media in our country today, so nonsense like this just gets tossed out into the public consciousness with no effort to correct the record.
Buttigieg uses that line as a prop for his next line, which is “America was never that great.” Note to Mayor Pete: If you have to make stuff up in order to claim America was never great, America must be pretty damn great.
That is all.

It’s hard to not have a ‘tin ear’ when you think you are always right and are dogmatic about your own ‘truths’.
I believe Christian churches may be able to fire practicing homosexuals.
Guess the know-it-all airhead hasnt checkd the world news lately.
REALITY CHECK: Trump's Nationalism routed globalism all over Europe. Trump-like nationalist candidates swept to victories in the UK, France, Italy, Hungary, Sweden, Poland and the Netherlands. The new EU political stars are Salvini, Le Pen, Farage and Hungary's nationalist Prime Minister Viktor Orban. All are in talks to form a team of international nationalist leaders....and Trump is the acknowledged world leader..
<><> Mette Frederiksen: the anti-immigration left leader set to win power in Denmark. Under her leadership, the SD have called for a cap on “non-western immigrants”, for asylum seekers to be expelled to a reception centre in North Africa, and for all immigrants to be forced to work 37 hours a week in exchange for benefits.
<><> In France, President Emmanuel Macron's party suffered an embarrassing defeat to nationalist Marine Le Pen.
<><>In the U.K., Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage won a landslide victory in the EU Parliament,
leading a Trump-like party that was established just six weeks ago.
<><>It appears likely Boris Johnson, the Trump-like former mayor of London, will emerge as the new prime minister of Britain.
<><>In Italy, Matteo Salvini's nationalist party became one of the leaders
of the EU Parliament, winning an astounding 28 seats.
<><> Opposition conservatives prevail in Greek local election runoffs Reuters. Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras’ leftist Syriza party suffered its first major defeat in years to the conservative New Democracy party in last Sunday’s European Parliament vote, prompting him to say he would call an early election. The snap election is expected to take place on July 7. On Sunday, the seats of the mayor of Athens and the district governor for the wider Athens area were the top prizes up for grabs in the runoffs of local elections. Results showed New Democracy candidates winning both seats, handing the conservatives another boost before Greeks return to vote in the expected election next month.

<><>Elections in India - Voters Reject Handouts! Indian News Sources ^ | 5/19/2019 | Me Posted on 5/19/2019, 9:29:06 AM by Republic_Venom If any of you are watching the end of the elections in India (https://www.republicworld.com/livetv) ......and looking at the exit polls, looks like the voters have re-elected the incumbent PM. He, like Trump, was hounded by the media and liberal elite. The surprising results from the exit polls is that the poor and destitute in India voted for him and not the parties that were offering hand-outs and uber-socialist sops. Australia rejected the liberals, now India has...so has Brazil.
Next up for major rejects.....US liberals.
At this point I do not believe ANY news source until I have found at least several INDEPENDENT source in agreement. It is very maddening to me how often I can’t find independent supporting stories.
I expect all these b******s to end up roasting in hell.
The entire WORLD was ready for President Trump!
Best. Election. Ever. EVER! MAGA!
(Heck, Make The WORLD Great Again! - Not as catchy, though, LOL!) )
They need to keep it up!
2020 Trumpslide, Ahead! :)
The pathetic lunatic LIBs are incapable of embarrassment. However, they make for great entertainment and provide continuous opportunities for ridicule of their insanity. LOL. MAGA! Crush these seditionists and traitors. They deserve no less.
“Thus, watching them humiliate themselves in public has become a major new national pastime, a source of great joy to millions of normal Americans.”
OUTSTANDING sentence and article. Thanks.
Much as I enjoy the schadenfreude of leftards embarrassing themselves I had to pass on subjecting myself to the hildebeast. No point in harshing my calm ;'}
Last evening Judge Jeanine Pirro & Corey Lewandowski, guest on Judge Pirro’s FNC Cable TV Show with much glee and joyous anticipation, verbally urged folks to turn out in massive numbers to show their loyalty and political support for POTUS, Donald J. Trump’s massive, gigantic 2020 Re-election, Campaign “KICK-OFF” Rally being held in Orlando, Florida on Tuesday evening, June 18, 2019 at the giant “Amway Center Arena”, located in downtown Orlando, Florida, commencing at 8:00 PM (EDT). The RNC, etc., is announcing an overflow crowd (over 30,000 people) of Trumpers is expected to fill the Arena and the surrounding streets in Downtown Orlando, Florida. Some people are estimating that 50,000 PLUS folks might actually attend!!! Contact www.donaldjtrump.com for further info and get (2) free tickets if any are left.
Be there or be nowhere.
Go, Trump, Go, Pence, Go, Trumpies, Go, Americans, Go, USA, Go, MEGA/MAGA!!! Goodness...imagine if 1,000,000 “TRUMPIES” showed up...shucks it would politically destroy the Democrat Party politically in one night!!! Do it!!!
They are tap dancing for their masters....that’s what it seems like.
“America was never great”? Then why is he running for the most important job in the world? Does he have the hubris to think he is going to change that all by himself?
BTW, America was great until Democrats/Liberals/Progressives/Socialists/Communists ruined it.
Maybe Biden has it right? Sit back and watch the kiddies self-destruct because the democrat electorate wants somebody that they consider an ‘adult’. They truly think Biden can beat Trump, and Biden is using that as his basic strategy.
The campaign ‘action’ week-2-week seems to be Biden gets hit with a corruption charge (usually one that we’ve known about for years) while the kiddies beclown themselves on the weekend. Unless they hit Biden with something that’ll gain traction amongst the democrat electorate, he’s in. This week they hit him with his support of the Hyde Ammendment. Biden promptly caved. I guess they’ll have to get Biden on something else?
So maybe it would take a real dark horse coming out of nowhere at the right moment in the campaign to energize the base and for the democRATS to win. But who?
Someone in The Swamp? Michelle Obama? A female (well, sorta), not white and as a former first primate, Mooch has a lot of the progressives' boxes checked off already.
Hollywood celebrity type? Oprah Winfrey? Well-known, popular, female but not married, black, fat and rich talk show host. If The Donald, why not The Oprah? Lots of liberal boxes checked off already with Oprah.
An experienced businessman and politician? Michael Bloomberg? A known successful commodity. Being a white guy who's rich won't score him points with the democRATS, but they'll give him a pass a because his hard gun-control stance and strong climate change support creds.
Anyone else heard talk of a potential democRAT dark horse candidate to break up the stale logjam they have assembled now? Any suggestions or predictions as to who it might be?
Just wonderin' out loud.
Lead, follow, or get OUT of Trump’s way! :)
Democraps have long-ago abandoned any pretense at using govt for the betterment of the citizenry.
Democrats are now a savage invading force waging relentless war on we, a peaceful people.
If Biden’s number crater the Dems will pull their usual switcheroo and throw Michelle’s name out there. Oprah will pony up the megabucks the way she did for Barak and the Press will be in a tizzy.
