Losing My Touch?
It’s a question I often ask myself, do I still have something to say that people might find interesting or informative? Do I create more questions than answers? Am I still funny in an odd way?
Well, I still think I am funny so it’s the other two questions that worry me.
I will be the first one (perhaps the only one) to admit that many of my messages are similar. Deja Vu all over again. I do try to make things interesting and bring up things that others may have missed. However, you write about things you know and after writing about those things for four years, I almost feel like everyone else, adding nothing new to the picture.
I am an old dish rag before my time I guess.
What I have noticed lately, in the press and on social media, is the left is coming to their senses a little bit.
This group of hypocrites is finally coming to realize that President Biden may not be the right man to run the country for the next four years. I mean how else can you explain the NYTimes actually reporting on Biden fighting back when that special council basically said he was an old man and he did not have the strongest cognitive ability, or something like that. Six months ago, the special council’s report would be buried somewhere on page18.
President Biden fights back and says his memory is just fine and he goes on an open mike and completely confuses the President of Egypt with the President of Mexico. In and of itself it really is not a big deal, politicians and regular folk constantly make that mistake and no one goes on national TV and points a finger at them.
Gaffes are gaffes. Everyone makes them occasionally and they are forgiven and Joe Biden is 80 for God’s sake, give the guy a break.
While I think that a lot of the left leaning media has finally come to realize that the leader of the free World is only about 67% there and they are preparing us for something, I think. Maybe, a change in heart for our beloved leader? Maybe we see a mutiny at the Democratic Convention? Maybe just maybe.
The Atlantic has no qualms about protecting Joe Biden. They are as left leaning as any magazine in America and the way they try to point fingers at everyone else while shielding President Biden is nothing less than sickening. I just got done reading an article in The Atlantic where the author used other peoples mistakes and says “See, we all make errors speaking”. The point of the article was less about Biden’s cognitive decline rather than the guy has always been a moron ( my take on the article, not the author’s). Mixing things up, confusing ideas, creating scenarios that didn’t ring true. He was(still is) the Norm Crosby of politics.
We all know by now that the Democrats in this country have this enviable skill of not taking ownership of anything remotely relating to themselves or their party. Republicans are pretty skilled at this as well but nothing like the Democrats.
You will never hear a Democrat give a straight answer when that straight answer is something they don’t want to admit.
For example, ask a Democrat Yes or No, do they think Joe Biden is a good President. Yes or No. Simple right?
Here are some of their answers: Compared to Trump he is the greatest president we have had in the last 4 years. Or: His inflation policies have gotten out of the inflationary spiral. Or: He didn’t cause the border crisis, Trump did.
All stupid answers to a very simple question. Yes or No. They can’t, in good concious say that Joe Biden has done a good job. He hasn’t. That’s the way Democrats work, they need disclaimers or try and do a work around on every question.
Maybe I am being too harsh on the party because in reality, Republicans do some of the same things but not nearly as often.
I am a Republican and if you ask me a question, I will answer it. You may not like my answer, you may not agree with my answer but I will straight up answer it. I think most of the people I know who are Republican will straight up answer any question you ask them. No beating around the bush.
Let’s get back to what do the Democrats do now? Again, the Times reports that party leaders are looking into contingency plans regarding the Democratic candidate for President in 2024. It is preliminary but there have been actual discussions regarding President Biden’s mental health within the Matrix. Nothing may come of it but it’s good to know that the puppeteers that control President Biden are aware of how bad he looks to the voting population.
The whispers amongst the players is that the only one to actually come in and save the Democratic Party is none other than Michelle Obama. Interesting idea for sure but I heard David Axelrod on some network explaining why he didn’t think that was a possibility. He said, she never truly liked the political theater. She backed Obama very capably but she was just not into it like he was. She might be a patriot (his words, def not mine) but he said he thought she was very very happy with where her and her family were now. I tend to agree with him but I think it’s more about what her and Barack have started. They have a production company up and running and so far, it has done fairly well. They can tell stories and do some good telling those stories. Plus, they are going to make millions. Naw, she’s out.
So, that leaves Gavin Newsom. Handsome, articulate groomed for the Presidency from an early age. Yea, they better slow their role on this one. He has basically turned the Golden State of California into a blistering open wound. The combined debt in California is over 1 trillion dollars and they are thinking about adding another 400 billion dollars to that debt with reparations? People are leaving California in droves. Yes, they are leaving New York as well but there is a huge difference. California is the land of Sunshine, fresh fruit everywhere and the most beautiful scenery on Earth. New York is just a tough, expensive place to live with some beautiful scenery as well. New York to Florida has been a thing for decades. California to Texas says something totally different. Gavin Newsom is responsible for it all. Yeah, I’ll vote him in and see how bad he can destroy the whole country.
The Democrats should have learned this from the Republicans. You need a good solid bench. The Republicans have not developed anyone Presidential. That is why Donald Trump is the only possible choice. The Democrats should have had an alternative a year ago. Someone that those undecided voters can say “Him, I like”. They don’t so now we we will have to decide. Joe Biden and thoughts escaping or Donald Trump and thoughts you never want to see.
