People can probably come up with political events like this but I sure cannot. Been a very surreal week.
Old saying by political pros “A week can be a very long time in politics”.
We sure have seen that to be true this week.
And I thought DT was the “threat to Democracy”. Installing Kamala as the candidate is circumventing Democracy. THAT is an active threat to democracy.
Yes, but I think you can stretch it back to the debate for the most incredible 3+ weeks. That was clearly the beginning of the end for team Biden, IMHO.
What is different is huge things happening in both political parties on the eve of a Presidential election.
Anyone old enough to remember Nixon’s resignation?
RFK’s assignation was probably like this. He was odds on favorite to be the Dems candidate when he was killed June 5th 1968
You are right, i would have included the CrowdStrike computer hit. Which brought down banks, airlines etc. l put that with the political stuff because of who is in bed with CrowdStrike. I don’t think we know what that actually was…yet.
Anyone think he really has Covid??? Me either.
It’s enough to make me wonder what it’s like in Switzerland.
Saw a short video of Melania’s face at the convention....she was trying to hold back tears. These are frightening times....especially for her.
You left out the best: Biden does catastrophically bad in his debate with Trump. That is when it began to unravel for one-punch Joe.
It’s been an incredible 8 days.
Events have been happening so quickly that I don’t believe we have fully understood how close our country came to all-out chaos. If Trump had not survived, or if he had been seriously injured, we would be looking at a far different world today. To think that a little punk kid from Pennsylvania nearly threw our nation into a bitter conflict still gives me chills. And the Democrats are still trying to put Trump in jail. These are much more fragile times than we might acknowledge. This is close to 1914 Sarajevo.
It’s been something, that’s for sure. As with some others, I would extend it back to the debate, when people, especially those in the Beltway, “found out” about how bad off Biden is.
The assassination attempt dwarfs all tge other recent stuff. Including Biden dropping out. Btw huffpoo saying Joe did it for live of country. They’re so dang phony.
You forgot the Supreme Court’s presidential criminal immunity decision in Trump v. United States 23-939 Trump v. United States (07/01/2024) - Supreme Court
That is what started all this.
I’m so sorry..was trying to tap in with something funny but I am too late…this is my place holder at this point…
Brit Hume with Fox appropriately said “even though I am part time now, I wouldn’t miss this for anything. News is coming like it is being squirted like a fire hose.”
I think I like to read history instead of living it. I know how it will end before reading about it and you can get into the details of how the history was formed.
In living history you are not sure where it will end and the details forming it will probably be secret until years later.
I’m living history in the dark.
