Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends)
Responding to reader mail.: Several readers have written to ask why I haven’t had anything to say about the U.S. Women’s Soccer team and this peroxided-blonde doofus making all the ruckus over in some foreign country where they are playing the World Cup boredom, er, soccer matches.
The answer to that is simple: I hate soccer. Well, let me revise that a little bit: I hate soccer when it is played by anyone over the age of 8. My granddaughter’s 6-year-old and under soccer games this Spring were totes awesome, mainly because the girls had no idea what they were doing, and no one had trained them to respect the “beauty” (which normal people translate to “tedious, mind-numbing, scoreless boredom”) of the game. So they just got out there and ran around and kicked the damn ball until they were utterly exhausted and their parents could then take them home and get some rest because their kids were too worn out to bug them about opening them a snak pak or taking them to Happy Fun Time Trampoline Town or something.
Soccer at that age is a fabulous spectator sport. But once those kids grow into adult bodies and incredibly boring soccer coaches teach them all the incredibly tedious aspects of how to bore fans until they become frustrated mobs who go out and start wars with neighboring countries, the game is a garbage dumpster fire. It then becomes a game populated by really good athletes who are so frustrated that no one really gives a damn about their dumpster fire game – like this peroxided chick whose name I don’t even know – that they end up lashing out in order to attract attention whenever they aren’t writhing on the turf faking an injury so that the other team gets a “yellow card” from one of the prissy game officials.
So that’s why I haven’t said anything about Peroxide Pauline or whatever her name actually is up until now, and why I don’t plan to have anything else to say about her in the future. So don’t ask me about her anymore.
All of which leads me to the real topic of the day: Marianne Williamson. Marianne Williamson probably never played a moment of soccer in her entire life, which goes a long way to helping to explain why she is an actual “interesting” person. Of course, I have to put quotes around that word, because being “interesting” is not always a positive thing, especially when one is interesting in a leftist, new-wavy, spiritual rock-worshiping, Stevie Nicks sort of way, as Ms. Williamson appears to be.
Most of the “experts,” i.e., pundits based in the D.C. thought bubble who all told you at various points in 2015-16 that Donald Trump a) would be out the race in two weeks, b)that Donald Trump could never possibly win the GOP nomination, and c) that the Pantsuit Princess was going win the general election in a landslide, just wrote Williamson’s first debate performance off as disastrous, labeled her campaign a “vanity project,” and predicted she’d be out of the race within a few weeks. Which could happen, but given the track record of the “experts” we should probably expect her to keep hanging around for awhile.
And be honest here: Wouldn’t you pay good money to see a debate between Marianne Williamson and Donald J. Trump? I mean, check this out:

4,013 9:59 PM - Jun 28, 2019 1,686 people are talking about this Twitter Ads info and privacy That’s some pretty good moves for a 66-year-old. I couldn’t move like that when I was 16. And we already know President Trump’s got some moves from his 2015 appearance on Saturday Night Live:
We have simply got to get these two kids together. Think of it: They could begin by discussing Williamson’s grudge against New Zealand’s Prime Minister and debating the merits of nuking that country to settle the score. And why not? It’s no more ridiculous than debating the merits of abolishing the private health insurance of well over 100 million Americans and forcing those same Americans to pay for healthcare for the tens of millions of new illegal aliens who are going to flood into the country after Democrats succeed in decriminalizing illegal border crossings.
It would be no more absurd than debating whether or not to print 5 trillion dollars we do not have so we can “forgive” the student loans taken out by idiots so they could obtain worthless degrees in Tibetan Women’s Studies or Russian trans-gender Poetry; no more ridiculous than forcing a sitting U.S. President to debate whether or not to award abortion rights to people who do not possess female body parts; no more ludicrous than debating whether or not to abolish the miracle of air travel so we can replace it with rail, the transportation miracle of 1840; no more absurd than debating whether or not to spend 38 trillion dollars attempting to get rid of cow farts; no more mindless than debating whether or not our country should adopt a socialist philosophy that has caused so much human suffering and death everywhere it has been tried.
In other words, while everyone commented on how odd Williamson’s debate performance was and how strange her ideas are, when you compare those ideas to what the other 19 Democrat debaters were actually saying, she really isn’t an outlier here. Not at all. And hey, Donald Trump kind of stood out on the stage in the early GOP debates in 2015, too, and things worked out ok for him.
So let me repeat the call I made last Friday – and which others have picked up on since then – that all conservatives and Republicans out there go to marianne2020.com and give $1 to her campaign so that we can be sure to see her qualify for the next round of Democrat debates.
Let’s work hard to ensure the upcoming Democrat debates have at least some shred of diversity of thought in them, even if it is the kind of “diversity” brought by Ms. Williamson. Otherwise, those future debates will be every bit as boring and tedious as a U.S. Women’s soccer match.
That is all.

This is the only legitimate purpose for soccer in the United States.

Wine and cats.
She makes more sense than most of them LOL
It’s a really, really low bar . . .
...ew-wavy, spiritual rock-worshiping, Stevie Nicks sort of way...
~~~
I can kinda dig her hippie persona, as a gimick.
Not as a presidential candidate. To pull that off, you’d have to do it right, including being genuine about civil liberties, for one thing.
But when I saw that clip where she said (paraphrasing) she is going to beat Trump and win by using love, and she had this angry, or at least negative ‘vibe’ that was probably meant to appear as determination, then I wasn’t buying the act. It wasn’t a case of RBF either, because I saw her during other parts of the debate and it was a different vibe.
I actually thought about donating to her campaign to help her make the levels for future debates, because... chaos.
True dat.
I think this is just about the most brilliant takedown of soccer I have ever read.
“Pantsuit Princess”
*snicker*

And yet, these are the positions the Dems espouse. Incredible....
Opinions are like a$$holes, everyone has one.
That’s the problem with refusing to realize you lost an election. You concurrently refuse to realize the “dogs wouldn’t eat it”. Making it simultaneously possible for you to insist you were correct with great moral indignation and continue to push policies that really are unpopular eventually requiring violent force to apply. The Civil War has started, FRiends.
Williamson was the Lead Minister at a Church my Wife and I attended in Warren, Michigan. She took over when the Founding Minister Jack Bollen passed away in the 1980’s.
She was very “cold” personallity and took this UNITY CHURCH to a Course In Miracles Church with a Black Gospel Theme. We left.
"Trump got elected by tapping into a phrase, "Make America Great Again" and until we dems GET that, we'll never win another election"
(or words to that effect)
IMO, nothing more powerful could have been said on an international stage.
If Marianne Williamson were truly in tune with truth and spirituality, she would recognize the amazing goodness and love in President Trump. But she doesn’t because she is just another programmed, progressive hater.
(Snicker, snicker)
Still claim Marianne was misnamed.
Her real name is HONEY SNOW and the only persons who cared about what she said were those who purchased her book (women).
Her charm was a visual attraction; her intellect, new age ‘piffle light’.
