Now Democrats Are Stuck With Biden
It's Kurt
[Townhall] Contrary to much speculation on the right, Democrats stuck with the fast-failing, feeble Joe Biden through their hilariously inept convention – Stop! Hey! What's that sound! Look at this LP of my grandpa's that I found! – and they are now well and truly stuck with him. Felonia Milhous von Pantsuit did not stagger in, waving her half-empty bottle of screw-top Trader Joe's Chardonnay, and putsch him out of the way. Michelle stayed put in her seaside villa from which she chides us for, among other things, not taking the global warming hoax's rising ocean threat seriously. And Kamala failed to get that box of "special" chocolates past Oldfinger's latest food taster.

Luckily, for the Democrats, Gropey J's speech was the greatest speech in the history of speeching, according to reliable and objective mainstream media sources whose collective reaction to the teleprompter opus collectively evoked the sin of Onan. After all, he only plagiarizes from the best. That B-Dawg managed to read from a teleprompter without drooling and concluding by yelling "Come on, fat!" was a kind of achievement, just not the impressive kind.

#2  The alt-right crowd was always just a bunch of aspiring grifters. The US is center-right and it doesn't have to move but one 1% further to the right to get Trump 4 more years. Then it's all about DJT avoiding the second term malaise / scandal syndrome and seeing if the left doubles down again on things that lost them the election.

If Trump wins, the GOP holds the senate and retakes the house, we probably won't see great strides, but more of the current program will be a rightward move.

If the situation allows Trump to get the US out of more military entanglements, restart the economy, get more judges in place and have a little juice left over to beat the left down every day, that's a yuuuuuge win.

#3  If the GOP takes the house, it will be with the new breed of Republican. The one that supports Trump and his goals. We'll see if they allow the old establishment fucks to claim leadership or not.

If the old ways return, expect the GOP to get slaughtered again in 2022. If America is still around that is.

#4  Maybe somebody called Mr. Spencer about his taxes... or made him an offer he couldn't refuse. You know, like Mike Flynn and his kids.

#5  I got accused of being "alt-right" once. The poor guy was flabbergasted when I asked him what it was and had never heard of everything he talked about. I still am not really sure what "alt-right" is other than democrats in disguise.

#6  #4 an offer here couldn't refuse

Sprach ein Biden insider also,
"I'd sure hate to blackmail you, bro.
Such language... oh dear...
Course you could volunteer
And go leftward with Kampfgruppe Joe."

Redistricting after the 2020 Census tends to stir things up. The only term limits that seem to matter.

#8  and they are now well and truly stuck with him.

Eh, the Dems are past masters of changing the rules to suit whatever agenda they have at that precise moment.

If they need to get rid of Joe, they'll do it blinklessly.

Who will call them on it outside of the Schicters of the world, whose remit doesn't extend beyond the conservative echo chamber?


As for Richard "Tiki Torch" Spencer, his philosophy of life can be neatly summed up in the call:

"Look at mmeee!!!"

#9  The Southern Poverty Law Center describes Spencer as "a suit-and-tie version of the white supremacists of old."

The Best of Both Worlds.

#10  /\Referring to #1 - Richard Spencer.

#11  #5 As far as I can make out, fascist, alt-right, white nationalist, white supremacist, and Hitler are all just left-wing terms for a "a person I disagree with".

#12  Who's in the wings when the old coot kicks before the ballots are counted?
Posted by: Skidmark || 08/24/2020 15:53 Comments || Top||

#13  Alt-Right: folks on the populist right willing to fight back. After decades of mealy mouthed Repubs braying about standards of decency while at the same time delivering nothing of legislative value while our Constitutional rights of free speech and assembly were stolen, there were those on the right who decided to fight back and bang some skulls. Spencer was never Alt-Right. He was first and foremost a National Socialist. It took very little for him to go Socialist...he in fact already was.

#14  Who's in the wings when the old coot kicks before the ballots are counted?

Prediction: Biden falls and breaks a hip. Comma-La becomes the candidate with Governor Dearest Whitmer as veep.
