Can we all admit that we already had 3 Trump/Dementia threads and J.F Forever just can't have an original thought ? You missed the "amazing" part that I high-lighted. Your fabulous claim that nobody here on the left "objected" to the Biden dementia thread. I can't keep explaining everything for you. .

Just amazing.

Can we admit Trump is cognitively impaired? Only if 'we' want to demonstrate how blind 'we' are. .

They won't be the 'margins' by the end of this week.

No it is not. You should be embarrassed for falling for it. Jon Cooper @joncoopertweets Ex: National Finance Chair of Draft Biden; LI Campaign Chair for Barack Obama; Majority Leader of Suffolk County Legislature. Gay dad of five kids

I thought that this was our imagination ? Liberal NYT Columnist: 'Powerful Democrats' Pushed Joe Biden Out in a 'Coup' Ward Clark In politics, as in so many fields of endeavor, timing is everything. In this election year, regarding the presidential election, the Democrats really screwed up. It was very apparent early on that Joe Biden was losing it. By spring, it was obvious that he was getting worse; he couldn't answer a question without wandering off into a nonsensical ramble. His flashes of unfounded anger, difficulties with finding words, and inappropriate gestures and behavior, especially around young women and children, painted a vivid picture of a man in the throes of dementia. But his administration and Democrats in Congress, along with the liberal and progressive legacy media, just kept whistling past that graveyard. "He's fine," they insisted, "He's as sharp as a tack," and "He's beaten Donald Trump once, and he can do it again." Then came the first scheduled presidential debate, and all that came crashing down. But there was just one problem. Joe Biden had, in the primary elections, already sealed up the delegates required to sew up the nomination. So - a putsch it was. Joe had to go; the polls were cratering, and the Democrats found themselves in the unenviable position of having Kamala Harris being the least awful choice. Now, none other than the New York Times's Maureen Dowd is decrying what was done to befuddled old Joe. {snip} The Democrats pulled off their putsch. They have made their bed and are now forced to lie in it, and Kamala Harris isn't exactly the mint on the pillow. Sooner or later she will have to face unscripted, unplanned questions from the media. Before long she will have to face Donald Trump in a debate, and she just plain isn't any good at either. Sooner or later, as my colleague Adam Turner points out in the piece linked just above, she will have to address serious questions on serious issues, and that may well be when the tide turns. In 2020, the Democrats were able to keep Joe Biden's basement campaign in place, citing COVID as the excuse; they don't have that excuse any longer. The Democratic National Convention starts Monday. Watch here for coverage; the tenor and tone of that event will tell us a lot about how the Harris/Walz ticket intends to run its campaign. https://redstate.com/wardclark/2024/08/18/it-was-a-coup-powerful-democrats-pushed-joe-biden-out-n2178238 https://www.foxnews.com/media/powerful-democrats-pushed-president-biden-out-coup-nyt-columnist

Walls Are Going Up and Chicago Police Are Getting 'Sick' Ahead of the DNC The Democratic Party has its National Convention in Chicago starting on Monday, August 19th. Ahead of the convention, it seems they are expecting a lot of anti-Israel / Antifa Protestors gathering along with a surge of Illegal aliens. You all will recall the Democrats were also famously behind the entire 'Defund The Police' movement. It looks like with all of the chaos predicted over 1000 officers have gone to medical including Commander Yakimba Phillips, head of Chicago's 2nd district, with his claim reportedly being PTSD. Who would want to put their life on the line knowing how officers have been treated even in the best of circumstances and much less people when the people they are supposed to protect 'Led the charge' to defund them and are probably responsible for some of the horrid working conditions they have been facing? We are not implying that is the ONLY reason so many have suddenly become ill. We are simply saying it could have been a small piece of the pie. https://twitchy.com/artistangie/2024/08/18/chicago-police-getting-sick-ahead-of-the-dnc-n2399782

One day we will look back on this and wonder why we listened to the radical left. SO MUCH SCIENCE: Anthropologist Told She Can't Gender Remains Because We Don't Know How They Identified Amy Curtis Remember science? Remember when the pursuit of objective truth meant rationally questioning, rigorously testing hypotheses, and reporting the results without political bias? Good times. But the times, as they say, are a-changin'. Science has now become a cultish quasi-religion for the Left, and woe to those of you who don't bow down to its ever-evolving dogmas. Elizabeth Weiss, Professor Emeritus of Anthropology, had a conversation with Michael Shermer of Skeptic, and guess what -- anthropologists can't 'assume' the gender of the remains they find because we don't know if that person 'identified' as male or female. Science is dead. Wokeism killed it. https://twitchy.com/amy-curtis/2024/08/18/anthropologist-told-she-cannot-determine-sex-of-skeletons-because-we-dont-know-how-they-identified-n2399773

Must see TV

Gov. Gretchen Whitmer Tried to Defend Kamala Harris’ Policy Stances - It Was an Utter Train Wreck By Jeff Charles Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, co-chair of Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign, tried desperately to defend her candidate’s recently articulated policy stances during an appearance on NBC News’ “Meet the Press” on Sunday. It did not go well. Host Kristen Welker and Whitmer discussed a series of policies, including Harris’ proposed “price gouging” ban on food companies, immigration, healthcare, and others. The train wreck began when Welker asked about President Joe Biden’s “historically low approval ratings” and whether Harris “should be doing more to distance herself from President Biden.” Whitmer replied, saying that the president “is going to go down as one of the greatest presidents we’ve had in a long time in this country” and that Harris “has been a big part of this administration.” “They've been partners. They've delivered for the American people. So I think we've got to tell that story,” Whitmer said, somehow with a straight face. The conversation turned to Harris’ declaration that, if elected, she would institute a ban on price gouging for food companies ostensibly to counteract the effects of inflation on everyday Americans. Welker brought up recent criticism of the policy coming from the left and right and asked whether it is the appropriate solution to the inflation problem. Whitmer answered by dodging the question, saying, “People are reading too much into what has been put out there.” More at the link: https://redstate.com/jeffc/2024/08/18/gov-gretchen-whitmer-tries-to-defend-kamala-harris-policy-stances-it-was-an-utter-train-wreck-n2178234

Why is it okay to compare Trump — and indeed every GOP presidential candidate over the last 75 years — to a leading National Socialist, but it’s not okay to point out Kamala’s predilection for International Socialism https://instapundit.com/229455/

I'm with Norm.

Amen. ,

Not a surprise to those with their eyes open. Majority of antisemitic incidents committed by leftists, not Islamists or neo-Nazis, research find With the Democratic National Convention next week, thousands of pro-Palestinian protesters are expected to protest the event in Chicago. With antisemitism rising across the globe, from assaults to graffiti, a new analysis finds the political motivation of perpetrators skews decisively to the left, with extreme progressives far more likely to commit such attacks as compared to Islamists or far-right activists like neo-Nazis. The new findings come as the Democratic National Committee braces for potential unrest from anti-Israel protesters at its nominating convention next week in Chicago just days after presumptive nominee Kamala Harris was confronted at a New York fundraiser by a protest that required some arrests. https://justthenews.com/politics-policy/polling/majority-antisemitic-incidents-were-done-far-leftists-not-muslims-combat
