Democrats in full on panic

Over at The New York Times, it looks as though Trump has already won the election.

 

At the top of the front page:

 

Screenshot%202024-06-16%20at%208.08.29%E

 

 

A quick look at the 4 articles:

 

1. "The Resistance to a New Trump Administration Has Already Started/An emerging coalition that views Donald J. Trump’s agenda as a threat to democracy is laying the groundwork to push back if he wins in November, taking extraordinary pre-emptive actions." 

It's almost as though there's a conspiracy to deny the election.

[T]he early timing, volume and scale of the planning underway to push back against a potential second Trump administration are without precedent. The loose-knit coalition is determined not to be caught flat-footed, as many were after his unexpected victory in 2016.... 

“What Trump and his acolytes are running on is an authoritarian playbook,” said Patrick Gaspard, the chief executive of the CAP Action Fund, the political arm of the liberal think tank the Center for American Progress. He added, “So now we have to democracy-proof our actual institutions and the values that we share.”... 

The leaders of many of the centrist and left-leaning groups... are... wary about discussing their contingency plans publicly, for fear of signaling a lack of confidence in President Biden’s campaign prospects...

 

 

2. "If Trump Wins" by Charlie Savage, Jonathan Swan, and Maggie Haberman.

This is a very useful list, but I'll just quote from the headings (except on the very last point). Wouldn't it be bad if this list of horribles actually appealed to a majority of Americans?

Mr. Trump is planning a massive expansion of his first-term crackdown on immigration.... Mr. Trump has declared that he would use the powers of the presidency to seek vengeance on his perceived foes.... Mr. Trump and his associates have a broad goal to alter the balance of power by increasing the president’s authority over every part of the federal government that currently operates independently of the White House.... At the risk of disrupting the economy in hopes of transforming it, Mr. Trump plans to impose new tariffs on most goods manufactured abroad.... Mr. Trump has long made clear that he sees NATO, the country’s most important military alliance, not as a force multiplier with allies but as a drain on American resources by freeloaders.... Mr. Trump has been more clear about his plans for using U.S. military force closer to home. He has said that he would: 1. Declare war on drug cartels in Mexico....

 

 

3. "At Biden Fund-Raiser, Hollywood and Democrats Let the Trump Attacks Fly/The Biden campaign said it raised at least $28 million on Saturday, at a fund-raiser in Los Angeles, where entertainers, Barack Obama and even Jill Biden assailed Donald J. Trump." 

Wow, that headline needs an Oxford comma (after "Obama"). No, the entertainers were not Obama and even Jill Biden. They had George Clooney, Julia Roberts, and Jimmy Kimmel. And Barbra Streisand, who introduced Jill Biden with the line, "She’s the neighbor everyone wishes they have, not the type that suddenly flies an American flag upside down."

 

 

4. "House G.O.P.’s Spending Chief Faces a Primary from the Right/Representative Tom Cole of Oklahoma is fighting off a right-wing challenger who has tried to make the lawmaker’s influential perch a liability."

Mainstream lawmakers and veteran legislators are increasingly marginalized by ideologically driven right-wing figures who have little interest in operating within the political establishment....

Right-wing hard-liners have tormented their leaders in Congress in recent years over the appropriations process, demanding steep spending cuts that the Democratic Senate and White House would never accept. They have repeatedly fueled the specter of a shutdown and forced consecutive Republican House speakers to rely on Democrats to push spending bills through....

Currently the top EIGHT threads here are all about Trump and the GOP.  
 

Granted that’s almost entirely bc of Bill Stime however…..
 

I’m going to correctly say Bill represents 80 percent of D voters. 
 

 

This is absolutely amazing.  
 

This shouldn’t even be a race.   But it is.  
 

The man they impeached 57 times and supposedly is persona non grata has them absolutely terrified…

 

That’s because every single serious problem in this country (legit caused by Democrats) the GOP - our good Christian Nationalists friends - have solutions for.  
 


There are 2 reasons for the panic  -  
 

1.  THEY HAVE ONLY ONE THING TO RUN ON - Abortion.  
 

That’s all they have.  That’s it.  They want to abort babies.  Nice job.   
 

 

2.  This isn’t just Trump.  Who is a gigantic waste of time.  We’ll be doing this all again in 3 years after a deadlocked DC even if he wins - which is best DC btw.  And just a 24/7 ***t show of memes.   
 

However - They understand the blowback has arrived.  It’s here.  The evidence is everywhere and they know it.  

 

This isn’t to say Trump is going to win.  He isn’t.  
 

No politician is fixing the disaster that is this country at its current rotted disgusting core anyway.   
 

I’m not sure the good guys are winning yet but the evil trash all over this country in positions of power and the ramifications of their policies are getting exposed on new mediums that no longer include TV every day. 
 

The culture needs to course correct from the grassroots and it is.  
 

That will lead to better candidates like our version of Milei - then we’ll know the good guys are winning.  
 

One is currently governor of Florida but I digress. 

 


 

I called it when I started this thread in February.  
 

Out here doing God’s work you’re welcome Jack

Biden has NEVER been a good man.

 

Push Play.

 

 

 

 

Upon confirmation Justice Thomas told Senators Biden and Kennedy and the rest of 'em he was 42 years old and he's gonna be a supreme court justice for 42 years.  If my math is correct he's still got 6 years to go.

 

Senator Biden and the Donkey team didn't want Clarence Thomas in cuz he is black. Thomas was replacing Thurgood Marshall who was appointed by  LBJ.  Democrats were supposed to be the ones appointing black Justices, not Republicans.  Thus the shenanigans by Senator Biden and the rest.

 

One other thing I remember is how Clarence Thomas snookered Biden.  They let Thomas go so they could interview Anita Hill.  After testimony of coke cans and such Thomas came back.  Biden started out by asking Thomas if he watched it thinking he would have and could go through the coke can and such.  Thomas said no. Biden then hemmed and hawed for a minute and then had to follow a different line of questioning.  And what was all that "natural law" stuff that he and Thomas allegedly understood?

 

The high tech lynching bit by Thomas was epic.

The martyr and victimhood mentality are strong with that one. 

 

Just like it's ignorance of actual history. 

 

I wish there were a way to have these people experience just a taste of what being in Palestine would be like.  Kind of like those "Scared Straight" programs they used to have for juvenile delinquents.
