Political Purity

 


We recall when Senator Al Franken was forced to resign over a gag photo, a far less transgression of decency than what every damn insurrectionist Republican has said and done.

And here they go again. Twenty-two “Political Purity Police” Democratic House representatives have emulated their Senate counterparts in joining Republicans in censuring their fellow party members.

First let’s examine the “politically correct” rhetoric Democrats didn’t censure. 

Republican Marjorie Taylor Greene:

"I am not going to mince words with you all. Democrats want Republicans dead and they have already started the killings."

On Trump’s January 6, 2021 coup:

“You can’t allow it to just transfer power ‘peacefully’ like Joe Biden wants and allow him to become our president.”

"I want to tell you something, if Steve Bannon and I had organized that, we would have won. Not to mention, we would've been armed."

All politically correct with no censure.

Republican Lauren Boebert:

“No more diversity, equity, or inclusion! We must stand up America, and end equality now!!”

“The church is supposed to direct the government…I’m tired of this separation of church and state junk.”

Boebert on Trump’s January 6, 2021 coup:

“Today is 1776!”

"The Speaker has been removed from the chambers."

All politically correct with no censure.

Republican Rep. Brian Mast:

“I think when we look at this, as a whole, I would encourage the other side to not so lightly throw around the idea of innocent Palestinian civilians. I don't think we would so lightly throw around the term innocent Nazi civilians.”

This was also deemed politically correct when Democrats pulled their own censure resolution against this bigot. Instead twenty-two of them chose to censure the innocent Palestinian civilian in congress the Republican bigot equated with being a Nazi.

The outrage is in reaction to Democrat Rep. Rashida Tlaib saying, “From the river to the sea is an aspirational call for freedom, human rights, and peaceful coexistence, not death, destruction, or hate. My work and advocacy is always centered in justice and dignity for all people no matter faith or ethnicity.”

Outraged politically correct Democrats joined fellow politically correct Republicans like Boebert and Greene to censure Tlaib’s politically incorrect words.

Tlaib’s sin was she failed to utter the politically correct version.

Netanyahu's far Right political party Likud declared in its original party platform. "Between the Sea and the Jordan there will only be Israeli sovereignty," reads the document, which also argued that a Palestinian state "endangers the existence of the State of Israel."

So Tlaib was censured by the “Political Purity Police” Democratic House representatives for far less than what every damn insurrectionist, pardon-seeking House Republican has said and done.

To those Trumpists howling and accusing others of being antisemitic, why can’t you see the beam in YOUR  eye?

Trump welcomed outspoken antisemites Kanye West and Nick Fuentes to dinner at Mar-a-Lago.

Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk accuses Jews of supporting Marxism. He wants to end teaching Holocaust history as well as the history of American slavery and racism:

“Jews have been some of the largest funders of cultural Marxist ideas and supporters of those ideas over the last 30 or 40 years. Stop supporting causes that hate you. Now, you might say, well, how is one thing applied to the other? If you train a generation, if you do everything through an oppressor, oppressed lens, they will apply that lens to the Israel-Hamas conflict. The same way that they apply it to the police issue, the gender issue, good guy, bad guy, somebody on top, somebody on bottom.

Until you cleanse that ideology from the hierarchy in the academic elite of the west, there will not be a safe future. I'm not going to say Israel won't exist, but Israel will be in jeopardy as long as the western children, children of the west, are being taught, with primarily Jewish dollars, subsidizing it, to view everything through oppressor oppressed dynamic. Until you shed that ideology, you will not be able to build the case for Israel, because they view Israel as an oppressor.

The One Rule of American politics stands. It’s OK if you are a Republican. Even antisemitism.

Will Joe Biden be Known as One of the Country’s Worst Presidents? I'm saying YES! As of right now, What other American President has Screwed Up as much as this Dumb Ass?
What other American President has the Afghanistan Withdrawal on his record?
What other American President has given 6 Billion dollars to a Terrorist State?
What other American President has given 100 Million dollars to a gang of Terrorist that attacked Israel?
What other American President has called his Daughter his Wife, or took a Shower with his Daughter. Or called his Vice President “The President” Or fell down 3 times walking UP a flight of stairs!
The Correct answer is NONE!
Now back to my original Subject
Lots of Bull-Shit here .from the ANTI-SEMITIC LESTER ...
Since 2005 Palestine has been free of Israel, elected Hamas to run their country. They attacked Israel repeatedly then carried out the biggest Jew slaughter since the holocaust. Yesterday Israel was protecting Palestinians try to leave Gaza for Hamas terrorist. Palestinians are paying the price for letting Hamas run their territory then using them as shields. It sucks but is the price you must pay when you sleep in the same bed with terrorist.
So let’s NOT forget that Hamas killed those Palestinians, make no mistake about it. They attacked and Brutally killed 1,700 Jews from the river to the sea meaning Eliminating Jews, then they got the citizens who supported them to shield them from their disgusting actions. As a favorite the democrats says, elections have consequences! The best thing for Palestinians is for Hamas to be totally eliminated and they’ll have their peace as long as they keep Iran out of their affairs. If you support terrorists you will die with them, it’s that simple.
But it seems to be going clear over your head. Lester Your ranting about Benjamin Netanyahu just shows everybody your YELLOW, and Cockeyed side, as always .

Thinking said...

The disgusting Democratic Rashida Tlaib of the “Squad” accused President Joe Biden of supporting a Palestinian “genocide” and warned that Americans will remember when he’s up for reelection next year how he responded to the Israel-Hamas war.

So, if she doesn't support Biden and encourages more disgusting people like her to vote against Biden, I guess that means she will be helping Biden to lose Any vote not for Biden is a vote for Trump. And Democrats were foaming at the mouth recently over the infighting.

She is a hate filled bitch who cant keep her big nasty mouth shut. She is the poster child for what the Democratic Party has become. They at least used to try and hide their outright destain for America and its allies. Now the party wears its antisemitism like a red armband proudly. She should be treated like the piece of crap she is.

Proud Member,
I can't argue with some of you points about Biden. He can be sort of creepy and a doofus, but so is Trump. He's been losing it a lot lately, not knowing where he is and saying he's running against "Obama" and stopping "WWII".

You conveniently ignore the fact Trump was the one who agreed to withdraw from Afghanistan while allowing the release of thousands of Taliban prisoners. One of them is now their LEADER.

And of course Biden didn't "give" Iran $6 billion. It was their frozen assets to begin with and it is NOT a cash transaction. It's set up for humanitarian purchases by a third party.

The fact you don't care it was to free American prisoners from Iran reveals you're just looking for excuses to hate Biden.

You're also unaware, or don't care, that the great majority of Gazans are too young to have voted in the last election they had in 2006. Not that you particularly care for democracy anyway.

You also ignore the thousands of Palestinians who have been forcibly evicted from their homes by illegal Israeli settlers. You ignore the long string of abuses by IDF forces and lies from the authoritarian radical right Netanyahu regime. This is to be expected from those who cannot grasp the obvious fact that Trump is also a radical Right authoritarian liar.

I agree that the best thing for Palestinians is for Hamas to be totally eliminated. The next best thing is for Israelis to stop stealing their property, and maybe ever return it to the rightful owners.

Dave Dubya said...

Thinking,

So you "think" Tlaib disagreeing with Biden is the "poster child of what the Democratic Party has become"?

How does that make any sense?

She certainly doesn't speak for most Democrats. I don't expect a rational explanation. It's all about your hate anyway. But kudos to you for getting the name of her party correct.

Would you react any differently than Tlaib if you saw 5,000 Christian children bombed?

I'll bet you have no idea that Palestinian Christians are also being slaughtered.

I have to wonder how you feel about them.

Former Michigan Republican/Libertarian Representative Justin Amash tweeted:

I was really worried about this. With great sadness, I have now confirmed that several of my relatives (including Viola and Yara pictured here) were killed at Saint Porphyrius Orthodox Church in Gaza, where they had been sheltering, when part of the complex was destroyed as the result of an Israeli airstrike. Give rest, O Lord, to their souls, and may their memories be eternal.

The Palestinian Christian community has endured so much. Our family is hurting badly. May God watch over all Christians in Gaza—and all Israelis and Palestinians who are suffering, whatever their religion or creed.


Do you hate him for saying that as much you hate Tlaib for saying this? “From the river to the sea is an aspirational call for freedom, human rights, and peaceful coexistence, not death, destruction, or hate. My work and advocacy is always centered in justice and dignity for all people no matter faith or ethnicity.”

I see just as much hate in MAGA as I do in Hamas. They stormed our Capitol to overturn the election and are inciting domestic terrorism.

You probably missed this:

Republican Marjorie Taylor Greene: "I am not going to mince words with you all. Democrats want Republicans dead and they have already started the killings."

On Trump’s January 6, 2021 coup: “You can’t allow it to just transfer power ‘peacefully’ like Joe Biden wants and allow him to become our president.” "I want to tell you something, if Steve Bannon and I had organized that, we would have won. Not to mention, we would've been armed."

So you're good with all that vile insurrectionist hate, but think Tlaib is the problem?

Dave Dubya said...

I pretty much expect our Trumpist friends are far more angry with Biden and Tlaib than with their fellow MAGA domestic terrorists.

Their war on our elections is getting dangerous...again.

Election offices across multiple counties in Washington state had received envelopes on Wednesday that contained powdery substances.

Fentanyl was found in an envelope received by election officials Wednesday in King County, Washington – home to Seattle – the county’s elections director Julie Wise told CNN.

Staffers opening the envelope Wednesday detected white powder and immediately isolated the letter, called law enforcement and evacuated the building, she said.

Wise said her staff did not read the contents of the letter, but she described the situation as eerily similar to one over the summer when another letter – this one saying that there should not be elections – was also later found to contain trace amounts of fentanyl. She said the US Postal Inspection Service investigated the earlier incident.

Wednesday’s letter arrived as officials were counting ballots following Tuesday’s local elections, and it prompted the evacuation of some 150 workers for about three hours, she said.

“It’s devastating” for the county’s election workers to be targeted in this fashion, Wise said. “They are human beings. They have families. They are here to do a job. They believe in democracy.”

In a statement Thursday, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said Fulton County, Georgia – which includes large swaths of Atlanta – had been among the election offices in multiple states targeted with suspicious letters.

Officials in Georgia said a letter headed to Fulton County was suspected to contain fentanyl.

“We’re working with our state and federal partners to determine if any additional Georgia officials are being targeted,” Raffensperger said. “Domestic terrorists will not trample on our right to free and fair elections.”

Les Carpenter said...

Bravo for Tlaib! Her's are sentiments ALL decent liberty loving people can support ALL across the globe. The ignorance of those supporting the Netanyahu Zionist genecide is beyond belief.

If they took the time to look at the reality of the situation and how the Netanyahu Zionist facist government has historically treated the Palestinians they couldn't help but feel compassion for their plight.

It's time the USA shuts down the MIC. We should not be (as you said Dave) the "arms merchant of the west". We should be focusing on building true and lasting bridges with the East and Middle East.

Dave Dubya said...

Thinking,
Trump is never the answer. He is the PROBLEM. I'm aware of Biden's lies and odd statements. I invite you to show evidence of Biden's corruption.

Imagine how most of us feel about a criminal who wants to take over our government. And I'm not talking about Hunter Biden.

Trump is a direct threat to our republic. He has declared his intentions to weaponize the FBI against anyone who has more support than he has, whether they committed crimes or not.

"If I happen to be president, and I see somebody who is doing well and beating me very badly, I'll say, 'go down and indict them.'"

That's what dictators do.

There's enough evidence of Trump's crimes to fill a book. But his fanatic fans are unable to even THINK about it. NONE of them will READ THE INDICTMENTS. Instead their Malevolent Messiah's words are gospel. They really to worship him. His hateful words have replaced the Gospel of Jesus to them. "By their fruits we know them."

Trump's fruits are crimes, racism, bigotry, hate, and bloody insurrection.

Joe Biden wasn't elected because people worship like Trump's cult. Most of us had other preferences. But we voted for him because Trump is a thuggish tyrant. All he did was pack a court full of corporatist theocrats to deny women their reproductive FREEDOM and cut taxes for the rich and corporations to add TRILLIONS to our DEBT the REST OF US have to PAY.

Trump is a SERVANT OF MAMMON, but so-called Trump "Christians" don't care. Trump is a rapist, but so-called Trump "Christians" don't care. Trump is a CRIMINAL, but so-called Trump "Christians" don't care. Neo-Nazis and antisemites like Kanye West and Nick Fuentes were WELCOMED to Mar-a-Lago, but so-called Trump "Christians" don't care.

He FAILED our people by his negligence with covid. He KNEW it was an airborne contagion but he scorned masks and told America it would soon disappear. Then covid almost killed him.

And his cult thinks he never lies.

And NONE of them know what Biden has done, even with bi-partisan support.

A bipartisan infrastructure bill
Biden signed a $1 trillion infrastructure bill into law in November 2021 that will repair the nation's roads, bridges and railways, bring high-speed internet to rural communities and more.

The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law includes: $284 billion for transportation needs, which includes repairing bridges and roadways, public transit and airports, electric vehicles and low emission public transportation; $65 billion for broadband internet; $73 billion for power infrastructure; and $55 billion for clean drinking water. The legislation was a major bipartisan achievement, made possible by 32 Republicans — 13 in the House and 19 in the Senate — who crossed the aisle to ensure it passed. Trump had pressed conservatives to vote against the bill. He doesn’t give a damn we drink dirty water or if bridges collapse and kill Americans. ALL he cares about is himself.

Building semiconductors at home through the CHIPS Act

The CHIPS and Science Act of 2022 passed in August, which allocated roughly $53 billion in federal funding to manufacture semiconductor chips in the U.S. instead of relying on China to produce them.

Morgan Stanley, one of the largest banks in the US, now credits BIDENOMICS for producing an “unexpected surge” in our economy & says this Bidenomics is “driving a boom in large-scale infrastructure.”

Today, Veterans Day is dedicated to honoring military veterans, the brave men and women who have served in the armed forces. Understanding the meaning behind Veterans Day is essential to truly appreciate the sacrifices made by these heroes.

Let us come together to honor not only those who have fought in major conflicts but also those who have served in times of peace and to express our gratitude to the men and women who have donned the uniform, demonstrating unwavering dedication to their country.

It is more than a day of remembrance for the fallen; it is a time to reflect on the challenges faced by veterans after returning home, many veterans bearing physical and emotional scars and who struggle each and every day with their afflictions.

Let us also take a moment to consider the families who struggled during a soldier’s deployment, who have lost loved ones, and who fight to provide support each and every day.

Let us remember that it was our senile Commander-in-Chief and the corrupt, politicized military leadership that gave us a resounding defeat in Afghanistan, leaving Americans and their allies behind as they cut and ran toward a photo-op. A surrender that even surpasses our defeat in Vietnam. What our soldiers won in battle, our politicians negotiated away. It is a bitch when an illegal alien receives more consideration and military benefits than our soldiers

Dave Dubya said...

Anonymous,
There are some facts you don't see when your head is so far up Trump's ass.

While my brother was being shot at in Vietnam, YOUR HERO dodged the draft and had a sleazy doctor say he had "bone spurs". Your HERO called our dead soldiers "losers' and didn't want any wounded veteran near him because it "didn't look good" for HIM.

Trump’s longest-serving Chief of Staff John Kelly confirmed he said, “Why should I go to that cemetery? It’s filled with losers.”

The "losers" remark he made when he refused to visit the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery near Paris in 2018 because he didn't want to get his hair wet.

You're so brainwashed you don't know TRUMP surrendered to the Taliban and agreed to withdraw. Worse yet he supported the RELEASE of 5,000 Taliban BEFORE withdrawal, one of whom is their leader right now. He even wanted to invite them to Camp David!

He incited a coup to overturn the democracy and Constitution those troops took an oath to defend.

But these facts are not visible up Trump's nasty cowardly ass.

Trump is THE most dishonorable man to ever be CIC. Now he's nothing but a criminal who wants to destroy our republic and be dictator.

And fools like YOU want that to happen. YOU betray our dead veterans and are an enemy of democracy to support that traitor.

Let us not forger it wa NOT Biden who is responsible for Afghanistan as you framed it anon. It was Trump who is. Would you want us there still? Are you a neo con anon?

I am totally convinced that the Weenie Secretary of State Antony Blinken is Former President Brrack Obama’s hidden man in Joe Biden Administration, promoting Obama’s well know Anti-Israel, Anti-Semitic,and Anti-Netanyahu policies of appeasement to the Muslim world.

Dave Dubya said...

Thinking,

You're probably unaware that Obama's approval rating from Jews was always higher than the public at large.

https://news.gallup.com/poll/188837/jews-support-obama-stabilizes-two-year-drop.aspx

You probably can't explain why Obama's "hidden man" in Biden's "Anti-Israel, Anti-Semitic, and Anti-Netanyahu" administration is a JEW.

You're probably unaware that Obama had Jews for Chief of Staff, deputy assistant to the president and deputy national security adviser for international economic affairs, Secretary of the Treasury, and Secretary of Commerce among numerous other offices in his administration.

But if Trump tells you he hates Jews, you WILL believe him. You have NO CHOICE but to BELEIVE the sacred infallible word of Donald Trump. I hope you find the sense of curiosity and interest in truth to question his words, but it's probably too late for that.

Yes, conspiratorial beliefs are rampant throughout the Trump base. "Obama the foreign Muslim", "Q-anon" and "pedophile pizza parlors" are glaring examples. More recently it is the "lawfare" of the "deep state" out to frame the innocent and noble Donald Trump.

I would ask you for the information you have that convinces you of these beliefs, but people on the far Right tend not to provide facts and evidence that support them.

Trump defines their beliefs and convictions for them. His holy word is their gospel and no contrary information is considered.

True believers in Trump's election lies also tend to be disinterested in pesky contradictory facts and evidence. Their feelings are hurt and don't want to accept the reality that their beloved narcissistic Mendacious Messiah lost, and continues to lie about it.

They lack the moral fortitude and intellectual curiosity to even READ the indictments against Dear Leader.

I get it. There's a part of our human nature that finds comfort, safety and purpose through a deep faith in a leader of their group, and that dreads learning what it doesn't want to know. People who strongly identify with one group want to believe the very worst about the "others". I think it's rooted in our prehistoric primitive tribal ancestry.

Today it is reflected in religions, nationalism and even racism.

Most people are conditioned to believe theirs is the greatest leader, ideology, country and the "one true religion". In communist dictatorships religion is replaced by political ideology. In other dictatorships and radical ideologies the leader and his words become the de-facto state religion. Examples from the past are Lenin, Stalin, Mussolini, and Hitler. Some of today's examples are Kim Jong Un, Viktor Orban, Putin, Xi, and Trump.

None of these authoritarians tolerate dissent or accountability.

BTW, are you also convinced Obama wasn't born an American citizen and is a Kenyan Muslim?

There are those who are taking sides when it comes to Israel Palestine. There are Trump supporters who do not agree with Israel. There are Biden supporters that agree with Israel. And so it is dividing people all over the place.

As Americans, we should all get along with each other, and really concentrate on helping out homeless people in America. Crime is a big issue with major cities.
What we Americans need to do is say, the heck with them both, Trump and Biden. And to heck with Israel and Palestine. Neither of those countries or their religions or their problems, troubles are any of our business.
Sure we should have a opinion, but we do NOT need to parade all over the world voicing our opinions. Do it pleasantly, and respectfully , there are always 2 sides to every story.

Dave Dubya said...

Dick,
Thank you for your kind advice.

I'm not writing this blog to be popular. It is an exercise of my right to free speech for as long as I have it.

And if you were ever in my shoes, you'd have seen all the nasty name-calling, false accusations and outright hate from "readers" who don't like what I say. Those who cast the worst personal ad hominem attacks have shown no indication they ever actually read what I wrote. I'm nothing but a target for their indoctrinated vitriol.

What I'd like is good faith discussion. If a reader politely disagrees with me, I'll publish the comment. There's no reason to convey hate and off-topic remarks.

I even offered an easy to use format for them to disagree or correct my misinformation and misguided opinion.

“Dave, I have to say you are stating falsehoods by claiming (_____) and (_______). These facts and evidence (_____) and (____) suggest you are quite mistaken.”

None have made the slightest effort to offer facts or evidence in rebuttal.

I'm not championing Biden as much as I'm resisting the hate, lies, bigotry, ignorance and tyrannical tendencies of his opposition. Despite the areas of disagreement I have with him, he's all that stands against Trump's fascist agenda.

If you think I exaggerate, please read my recent post and let me know how off-track I may be.

Dave Dubya said...

Dick,
I don't like to choose sides in a war unless there's a clear aggressor and victim, as in Ukraine.

Hamas is the most recent aggressor. Not it is Israel's turn, as they slaughter thousands pf innocents and breed MORE terrorists. Just like the US did in Iraq.

The situation in Israel and Middle East in general is rooted in two converging paths of history. First is the history of ancient tribal/religious/territorial conflicts. Second is the 20th Century borders arbitrarily drawn by Western powers and the creation of Israel by the UN. After the Holocaust it seemed the most humane thing for European Jews. It proved the best of intentions can go awry.

It's almost impossible to side with sanity in all the ensuing tribal, Zionist, nationalist and political madness.

For all the suffering of Israel, Palestinians tend to suffer ten-fold. I feel sorry for all the innocent victims, and wish I had a solution, now that the two-state solution seems to be rejected by both sides.

Neither peace-seeking Israelis nor Palestinians can meet in good faith negotiations with their respective authoritarian leaders literally calling the shots.

"Neither peace-seeking Israelis nor Palestinians can meet in good faith"

HOW CAN YOU SIT THERE BEHIND YOUR COMPUTER AND WRITE SUCH NONSENSE?
"Palestinians tend to suffer ten-fold" ARE YOU FOR REAL?


His reading comprehension is minimal here. I said "peace-seeking", NOT the respective authoritarian leaders. They are obviously NOT peace-seeking.

In this conflict the body counts tell us Palestinians are suffering ten-fold. Anonymous is too full of hate and rage to even consider facts and evidence.

The Hawk said...

Zionism: "A movement for (originally) the re-establishment and (now) the development and protection of a Jewish nation in what is now Israel."
Im getting so tired of hearing the Jew haters say, it's the "zionists" I'm against not Jews. Stop the BS distinction between Jews and Zionists. It's ok for Muslims to have numerous states but not the Jews? Explain how that works. We're witnessing today how so many in America truly feel about the Jews and Israel. Let's also make no mistake, and let's never forget where this hatred is coming from, the American left. We saw how they feel about our country during the many peaceful protests of 2020. We now see these same pieces of shit displaying their Anti- Semitism.
Also, remember when you go to the voting booth next Nov, 188 Democrats had no problem with the Hamas squad (AOC and company) spewing their distane for the Jews and our ally, Israel.

The Hawk said...

Do YOU call your posts (ALL OF THEM) rational and Informed?

I surely don't and I won't give you the satisfaction of even trying to have a discussion with me. I don't have informed and adult discussions with the likes of Moronic Raving Idiots like you seem to be.

In this case the Jewish people have ALL the right to bomb the Hell out of Hamas for what they did on Oct 7th.

So you're saying Jews are too stupid to vote their support of democracy over Trump's white nationalism? Think about what you're saying.

No matter how you resent the fact, Zionism is NOT Judaism. Zionism allows for land theft and "ethnic cleansing". Look at the fruits of Zionism. The fact you cannot fathom why many Jews abhor the slaughter by both Hamas and the IDF indicates your enthusiasm for ethnic cleansing and group punishment of innocents.

Obviously you didn't see that Tlaib was censured for saying what Netanyahu's far Right said.

Rashida Tlaib said, “From the river to the sea is an aspirational call for freedom, human rights, and peaceful coexistence, not death, destruction, or hate. My work and advocacy is always centered in justice and dignity for all people no matter faith or ethnicity.”

Outraged politically correct Democrats joined fellow politically correct Republicans like Boebert and Greene to censure Tlaib’s politically incorrect words. Tlaib’s sin was she failed to utter the politically correct version. Netanyahu's far Right political party Likud declared in its original party platform. "Between the Sea and the Jordan there will only be Israeli sovereignty," reads the document, which also argued that a Palestinian state "endangers the existence of the State of Israel."

Obviously you don't understand the difference between "pro-Palestinian" and "pro-Hamas". This is bigotry, or ignorance at best.

How would YOU feel if YOUR home was bulldozed for someone else to take your land? Do you think that never happens?

Then again, you prefer the ranting hate of an American Hitler, calling everyone not loyal to HIM "vermin".

How do you think Jews see that??

Polls tell us that Trump will be president again. Sad.

Jerry,

As we know there are lies, damn lies, and statistics. Polls are statistics.

Biden's "favorability" is as deceptive as Trump's. People can be dissatisfied with Biden, but understand the downright evil in Trump.

The only poll that matters is the election next November.

This is a more realistic view of where Trump is headed.

Republican presidential candidate Chris Christie got into a shouting match with Newsmax host Eric Bolling on Thursday after Bolling suggested that Christie should stop attacking former President Donald Trump.
“Going after Trump doesn’t seem to be working. I mean, is it time to change the strategy?” asked Bolling on his show The Balance, to which Christie replied:

”No, it’s not time to change the strategy. The guy who’s 20 points ahead is the guy you have to beat to be the nominee, Eric and that’s why I think the Haley and DeSantis strategy is so ineffective and why Ron DeSantis is now in single digits in New Hampshire, because he’s not making the case against the one person who you need to beat if you want to be the Republican nominee for president, and that’s Donald Trump. And by the way, the reason I make that case is not just because I want to win, but I want our party to win, and he [Trump] will not beat Joe Biden from, you know, a courtroom in Washington, D.C., where he’s being tried for crimes. And now, Eric, his own chief of staff has signed up to testify against him. Not some, you know, woke prosecutor. Not some crazy Democrat from the Justice Department. Mark Meadows, one of the founders of the Freedom Caucus and his chief of staff, is going to testify that Donald Trump committed crimes.”

As Bolling started to interrupt, Christie shouted, “Don’t interrupt me when I start to say things that make people uncomfortable! I think we deserve better as the Republican Party and as the United States than a guy who’s going to be convicted of felonies this April.”

After Bolling shot back, “By who, Chris? By a bunch of liberal Democrats that are trying to take him down because they fear him,” Christie snapped, “No! No! Not by a bunch of liberal Democrats.”

As the two men continued to shout over one another, Christie protested:

”No! I’m not gonna put up with you saying that. He’s gonna be convicted by Mark Meadows, a founder of the Freedom Caucus and his chief of staff, who he called the next James Baker. That guy is now testifying, and will sit 20 feet away from Donald Trump in a courtroom, taking an oath and saying he committed crimes, that “he directed others to commit crimes, including me.” That’s what he’s going to say, and that’s not some woke prosecutor, that’s not some group of liberals, that’s a guy who founded the Freedom Caucus in the House, a Republican from North Carolina, and his choice for chief of staff, Eric.

I’m not a numbers guy, I’m a character guy, and when Mark Meadows gets on that stand, everything I’ve been saying about Donald Trump that you’ve been making fun of me about for months is going to wind up being true. The truth is coming, baby. The truth is coming.”

True. And many will be rethinking their support fot Biden. His stance with Israel and the genecide it has engaged in requires a second look at whether supporting Biden again makes any sense at all. He stands guilty of supporting another facist authoritarian simply because he's Jewish. Hypocrisy on display.
