Joy! Irrational exuberance soars to new levels

JOY! IRRATIONAL EXUBERANCE SOARS TO NEW LEVEL. The polls suggest that many Democratic voters feel better about the new and untested candidacy of Kamala Harris than they did about the old and enfeebled candidacy of Joe Biden. But the polls cannot measure the off-the-scale enthusiasm for Harris and new running mate Tim Walz that is appearing every day in some of the nation’s biggest media outlets.

Sometimes videos are more effective than lists. Look at this compilation of media figures marveling at what a “happy warrior” they believe Walz to be. He’s America’s coach or he’s America’s dad or both. And he’s not at all weird, like some other people. “Everybody likes Tim Walz,” says one talking head. “Hope, optimism, joy,” says MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough, characterizing Walz. (You might remember that not all that long ago, Scarborough was assuring us that Biden was super sharp and on top of things as president.)

For those experiencing the most irrational exuberance, the operative word of the Harris-Walz campaign is “joy.” A New York Times analysis of the campaign brought the headline: “Harris Used to Worry About Laughing. Now Joy Is Fueling Her Campaign.” 

Joy is fueling her campaign? You bet it is — no less a figure than Walz himself declared that Harris “emanates the joy.” MSNBC went along to declare that Harris and Walz “campaign with joy.” The Washington Post reported that the two Democrats have “seized on a joyful message.” The New York Times, again, announced that Harris and Walz are running a “joyful campaign.”

In Harrisworld these days, joy is everywhere — in food, in clothing, in campaigning, in everything. NPR loved Walz’s “folksy...

Democrat voters are imbeciles. My own mother cancels out my own vote every year because of feelz. She is not particularly bright and gets ALL her opinions from The View and MSLSD. She is hopeless. But she also represents millions upon millions of,like minded idiots. Who vote.

The DNC's propaganda network, once known as "news media, "is desperately laboring to drag Kamala the Hooker & Walz the Deserter across the finish line ahead of Trump & Vance. This happens every four years.

The DNC has assembled precisely the same coalition that Hitler assembled in 1933, with the addition of Big Tech censoring contrary opinions & any inconvenient facts that contradict their narrative.

● The Gestapo, formerly known as FBI, DOJ & all the other alphabet agencies. They arrest political opponents, contort the law to manufacture charges against them, then have show trials with friendly juries & like-minded judges such as Juan Merchan, who contort the law even more.

● Our intelligence agencies don't just spy on us. They told us, "Hunter's laptop is Russian disinformation." And that lie was broadcast (with any contradictory information ferociously suppressed) until years after Joe Biden was installed in the White House. Then, finally, they admitted "it's probably not."

● The propaganda network. Not just former "news media," but also the entertainment industry -- like Leni Riefenstahl's "Triumph of the Will," they consistently present plot lines that constantly push the theme, "Our ideology is good. Their ideology is evil."

● Big Business, with their DEI initiatives & the removal of every advertising dollar from media that aren't part of the propaganda network.

● Big Pharma. Everything from COVID "vaccines" that are not really vaccines & have devastating side effects, to the COVID "treatments" (such as remdesivir) that had fatality rates of over 50% during their (limited) trials, to puberty blockers & cross-sex hormones for little kids. Everything is designed to make billions, regardless of whether it creates more & bigger problems for the patient than it solves.

● All of academia & the entire education system, from pre-school thru graduate school. Everything from "climate change," to CRT, to loudly supporting Hamas terrorists, to immersion in LGBTQ ideology. Gotta indoctrinate 'em while they're young.

● Even the Boy Scouts are no longer the "Boy Scouts." They're just "Scouts."

● The leadership of the military-industrial complex, also immersing young, impressionable minds in LGBTQ & DEI ideology.

● Their version of the Reichstag Fire was January 6.

● Their version of Kristallnacht was the Black Lives Matter riots in 2020.

● They even have a proxy war against Russia. Hitler's was the Spanish Civil war. The Democrats have the Ukraine war. Democrats in Congress are flying more Ukrainian flags, on their desks & lapels, than American flags.

Their similarities to the Nazi regime in the mid-1930s are uncanny. They make quite a long list. But the DNC & its propaganda network have the nerve to call US "fascists."

Well, Trump want to do three debates. If the current candidate doesn’t do well they still have time to appoint another candidate.

I don’t get it. She’s Biden’s VP, therefore, she has the same administration, the same handlers hiding her from the press and the public; and as VP she had ONE JOB that she failed at.

Why the jubilation for another puppet who is so incompetent that the party leaders will not let her appear unscripted? She’s the same as Biden, but would be more fun at a party with a lampshade on her head.

I think they had resigned themselves to losing with Joe. As soon as Scamala was installed, they had hope. Now they can play the race and gender cards! They can even play the age card against Trump, which they couldn’t do when Biden was the nominee. Now they smell victory. Yeah, they probably are pretty happy.
