General Kelly: "If anything, his numbers go up."

That's because roughly 30% of the electorate are shit-tier human beings. They are comfortable with Trump being awful because they themselves are awful. And they should be treated accordingly.

I'm glad to hear Auggie's on the mend. He's a good boy.

Perhaps citizens would take better notice if Kelly & Barr say they would vote for a democtat instead of Trump, this is the line they don't want to cross. But Trump love will not decline unless GOPers say Biden is not the evil we portray him to be.

Oh, I totally agree. I think Barr is particularly shameful on this. He has acknowledged in many interviews on Trump's unfitness for office yet will support Trump against Joe Biden. For once, I'd like one of these interviewers to say, "Mr. Barr, while I respect your government service, you are completely and utterly full of shit and by not supporting Joe Biden for president, you are complicit in the destruction of our country. So, fuck right off with that."

Of course, that'll never happen.

I just read Jeff Tiedrich's free substack newsletter and this is today's topic - he always cuts through the BS.

I don't care if they give 10 caveats about how Democrats spend too much and are too in-your-face about accepting "weird" LGBTQ stuff, they need to end with their own truth. "I never imaged voting for a Democrat for President, but democracy requires it if the other choice is Trump."

And we have always, since the revolution until now, that 30%. Every now and then they get permission to show their true selves. TFG has amplified them and co-opted others that just want power. This is our showdown. And it will probably last for more than one more election cycle. They are not going to go quietly into the night.

We sure better have our big boy pants on, every single one of us.

Hillary understated it, if anything.

Hillary would have been a truly great President. I am sad to say, I think it will be a very long time before the United States has a woman for President. To many, being a woman is even more of a disqualifier than being Black.
