Nice coup. Democrat Voters Show Signs of Anointer's Remorse Ed Morrissey Issues & Insights' Terry Jones calls this "buyer's remorse," but that doesn't fit. Literally no one bought Kamala Harris as the Democrat presidential nominee -- by design. Democrats never gave their voters a choice other than Joe Biden in the primaries, and then threw out 50 state contests to anoint Harris as the nominee once the cover-up of Biden's cognitive decline got exposed.. Small wonder, then, that over a third of Democrats in the new I&I/TIPP poll don't feel much "joy" over Harris as their candidate. And even more of them believe they got stuck with a weaker candidate than Democrats could have fielded: https://hotair.com/ed-morrissey/2024/10/21/dem-voters-show-signs-of-anointers-remorse-n3796080

GENTLEMEN, YOU CAN’T ASK THE CANDIDATE QUESTIONS, THIS IS A TOWN HALL! Kamala Harris town hall host Maria Shriver says crowd can’t ask questions because they’re ‘predetermined.’ A town hall event with Vice President Kamala Harris on Monday featured a shocking revelation after one voter simply wondered whether she could ask a question. Former California First Lady Maria Shriver admitted while hosting the event with former Rep. Liz Cheney in Royal Oak, Michigan that she would only include ‘predetermined questions.’ ‘Are we going to be able to ask a question?’ asked a woman in the audience. ‘You’re not, unfortunately we have some predetermined questions,’ Shriver replied. ‘And hopefully I’ll be able to ask some of the questions that might be in your head, I hope so.’ https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13985135/kamala-harris-town-hall-maria-shriver-predetermined-questions.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=social-twitter_mailonline

McDonald’s Offered Kamala a Chance to Work at Restaurant Like Trump—She Never Responded. So, for those keeping score at home, here’s the rundown: Kamala says she worked at McDonald’s. Trump says, ‘Yeah, no you didn’t.’ Trump mocks her by working at McDonald’s. Kamala is offered a chance to actually work at McDonald’s and … doesn’t. https://redstate.com/rusty-weiss/2024/10/21/not-lovin-it-mcdonalds-offered-kamala-a-chance-to-work-at-restaurant-like-trump-but-never-responded-n2180853 /

SJSU has a much stronger, powerful man on their team. The fact he 'identifies' as a woman does not change the biological reality of it. They're cheating, and no other school should compete until they remove the man from their team.

And the 2024 Race Begins
B-Man replied to The Frankish Reich's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
As I Said, This Election Is About Class, Not Race Or Party David Strom The coalitions that once were the Republican and Democrat Parties have cracked and begun to fall apart, and in their place, a new alignment is developing that is based almost entirely on social class. Not economic classes, which in the United States are more fluid than anywhere else in the world, but social classes, which are hardly as fluid because they are foundational to our identity in a way that purchasing power is not. White college-educated voters--especially those who have attended prestigious colleges and universities--and the cultural elite are foursquare behind the Democrats in a "vote Blue no matter who" fashion; working-class people, increasingly of every race--are backing Trump and moving toward the populist Republicans. Blacks and Hispanics are trending rightward, while suburban white-collar voters are increasingly Democrat. Issues are hardly irrelevant, of course, but social identity is becoming the key metric when it comes to Party ID. An essay by Joseph Epstein--an extraordinary writer and social critic--put an exclamation point on this phenomenon for me. Writing on the Opinion page of The Wall Street Journal yesterday Epstein explained why he simply cannot vote for Trump, despite finding him ideologically sympatico on most of the major issues. Trump is crass, and that is not OK. The world can burn for all he cares, as long as the pants crease is sharp and the diction smooth. {snip} I recognize in Trump all the flaws that Epstein does. I would have preferred a different candidate, or a more modest Trump for that matter. But Trump is the right man for the job at the right time. That is why mavericks--people who care more about results than vibes--are flocking to Trump. That Elon Musk--whose sophomoric sense of humor is as "classless" as Trump's boastfulness--has allied himself with Trump says quite a bit. The man who will get us to Mars before NASA gets us to the moon is backing Trump because he knows that a classy decline is still a decline and that progress and brashness often travel hand in hand. It was not the soft-handed, tweed-wearing college professors who settled the West. It was hard men doing hard things, with hardy wives who braved the wilds. It is often the crass and the hardy who push humanity forward. It is the General Pattons who win wars on the battlefield. MacArthur was crass and egotistical, and you wouldn't want a world only populated by such people. But society needs them. Especially when it is in trouble. And America is in trouble. https://hotair.com/david-strom/2024/10/21/as-i-said-this-election-is-about-class-not-race-or-party-n3796083 -

McMentum By David Strom There is something glorious about how Donald Trump keeps breaking the minds of the elite. It is his most charming characteristic and probably one of the key reasons why there is a preference cascade that may carry him to victory in just over two weeks. Trump was obviously a superior president to Joe Biden, and Kamala Harris could not possibly be any better than Slow Joe. Ordinary people understand that intuitively, while people in the transnational elite don't care a whit about such mundane matters as a booming economy, world peace, or a closed border. Three things above all others matter to the transnational elite: money, power, and optics. They care deeply about looking good in the eyes of each other. So much so that they will sacrifice children on the alter of alphabet ideology, wear useless masks to show solidarity with each other, and debase our Constitutional order to keep people from criticizing them. You can see their heads explode as Trump served french fries to the proles. It was so gauche, and popped Kamala's bubble by exposing her phony claim that she worked at McDonalds. Nobody cared whether she actually worked there; they cared that she so casually lied about it in a vain attempt to seem relatable. She puts on "McDonalds employee" the same way she adopts a phony accent: with contempt for her audience. You couldn't cruise social media without seeing hundreds of posts about Trump working at McDonalds, so the corporate media actually tried to debunk the claim he worked there. As if anybody thought he applied for and got the job. I am not joking. Trump's love of McDonalds fries and his winning way at the drive thru window drove them nuts. As for staged? Oh, come on. But a preference cascade seems to be taking place. People want to be a winner, and Trump LOOKS like a winner. And Kamala Harris looks very much like a loser right now. https://hotair.com/david-strom/2024/10/21/mcmentum-n3796091
