The Frankish Reich

"As Americans, we are bound together by a single faith." Cringe. Cut to Vance's wife please. I'm getting the software. A little AI and it'll be fixed. No one else will even notice.

The damn God Bless the USA. First time I heard it I thought what the hell kind of lyric is "I'm proud to be an American where at least I know I'm free." That sounds like you're saying the country sucks in other respects, but hey, at least I'm free. Needed to be rewritten. "Where I'll always know I'm free?" Whatever. Dude has dined out on that damn song for four decades.

That's an old lady.

Damn, that misuse of penultimate ruined an otherwise good tweet.

Yeah, because he was a 77 year old man inviting a 70 year old man to strip off his shirt on the stage of a nominating convention.

Hulk Hogan firing up the crowd for Trump. What do people in other countries think about how effin moronic American politics is?

No, there's nothing that interesting in his Venmo contact. I really did mean this as a reminder to people. And could you move on from the Biden thing? It's really a pretty commonly held view if you'd get out more often. People have mentioned Nate Silver here as a pundit guru. I like reading him. Guess what? He goes away beyond me, thinking that Biden is in seriously bad physical/mental health. And yet he says he would vote for Biden over Trump in a heartbeat if that's the choice he's given.

Friendly reminder: Venmo default is "transactions are public." https://www.wired.com/story/jd-vance-venmo/

I'm on a roll. Outta my way, sonny. Although you have to admit you've helped me along with the Matt Gaetz thing. That is far weirder than anything I've pointed out.

Tucker with a high voice and girlish giggle. Too much sun on those nads, bro!

Mentally fit for the job = yes.

I won't hold my breath, but I really do think this is the rare constitutional amendment that could get ratified. Something like "no one who will have reached the age of 75 by the end of his or her appointed term is eligible to serve for national elected office."

So old I have no idea who or what that is. Enjoy the 80s revival tonight! Put on some REO and Journey to get fired up first.

Thank you, Bad Wig Hall of Fame Member Frank Luntz, for reminding us that the Democratic National Convention has never invited a WWE Hall of Famer to speak.

I never denied that. I said it's within the normal range for men in their early 80s. Fat part of the bell curve. Repeat: no one in their 80s has any business being president, including the other guy who will be older than Biden is today by the time he finishes his term.

I somehow missed that Ol' Sunburned Ball Bag himself, Tucker Carlson, will be on too. Maybe he can engage Dana White in a slap fest. Our Republican Thought Leaders, 2024 edition.

You're so old. Hulk Hogan? Really?? I actually thought he was dead. Meanwhile: Melania will be there (fully clothed?). Not in a speaking role despite "being asked numerous times." Maybe she'll flash that smile she flashes once a decade or so. At least swat away that Trump ham hand when he tries to hold her hand.

Funny you should mention Reagan. Clearly losing it in his second term, yet the world didn't fall apart. In fact, some very good things started happening, like the fall of the Soviet Union and the liberalization of Poland with the rest of the old bloc following. Just like a very incompetent Woodrow Wilson somehow presided over a winning effort in WW1, and a seriously declining FDR took us to victory in Europe. Or how a declining Joe Biden brought about the strongest, most united NATO in history.

Mark Halperin used to be a good source until he go me-too'd and nobody would talk to him anymore.

Day 4, The Return of 80s White Trash Culture. You actually have to have exposed yourself in public in order to be on the speaking schedule. Melania lesbo pics. Amber Rose public hair pics. Hulk Hogan sex tape. Linda McMahon on too, because you really can't have the roided up Harvey Weinstein, Vince McMahon. But that was probably a close call for them.

Sometimes just a look at Trump cause women to grab themselves by the you-know-what.

In private he isn't sitting around watching TV while the Capitol burns.

And if you really believe he is totally unfit, being a patriotic American you would be completely supportive of replacing him as the nominee, lest Trump do something truly idiotic and "incompetent" Biden is elected again.

Oooh, I'm convinced.
