"Tampon Tim"? I'm calling him Teflon Tim because none of it sticks. The desperation is at DefCon 5.

Damn! That mention of old 'two shirts' at the end, reminded me that I haven't heard or read shit from that asshat for quite some time.......It's been bliss.....

Ta, Gary. We're at the pied-à-nuage in Undisclosed Location, NY, preparing things for our Brooklyn wedding on Thursday. If we weren't, we'd have joined the Weekend Warriors in my union in the morning to travel to PA on buses to knock on doors and talk to voters. Team Tramp has nothing, so they just make shit up.

There is no reason for Trump to have a hold on Fundamentalist Christians. Donald Trump and the religious leaders who support him, are the very same people who brutally executed Jesus Christ, in a vain attempt to extinguish his message of universal love and acceptance. Shout it from the mountaintops!

Have you read "The Grand Inquisitor"? It's a freestanding story within "The Brothers Karamazov" that I read in high school. It has a very enlightening explanation of the relationship of Christian hierarchies to Jesus.

Score a couple for me!! Two acquaintances (formerly MAGA) I have delivered from the darkness. One even told me that she is praying that Harris wins, and is advocating to her family members, friends and fellow parishioners for Harris/Walz. Hurray!! Time for boots on the ground. Get out there and talk to people!

Dont forget that an Republican member of Congress entered an piece of chinese propaganda in the congressional record.

They got zilch. They are just going with total fantasy BS. It’s pretty telling. Walz is so likable they need to accuse him of things nobody believes. Lara Trump, who married Eric on purpose, said Kamala didn’t earn her VP job. Unlike Lara, who was “called” to the RNC job by God. These people are friggin nuts.

The Republican Party no longer exists. Anyone who had a shred of intelligence or decency has left of their own will, or has been shown the door. They have no ideals, no platform no nothing other than blind allegiance to a wacky game show host, and a rogue's gallery of itinerant tent preachers.

As I remember it, Tramp was the one getting a reach around as Xi whispered sweet nothings in his ear and buggered him!

Putin didn't even give him a reach around

It's all true! I once saw Tim Walz getting a China special! One from column A and two from B! Got free egg roll!

Steve Bannon..... what you would get if Joseph Goebbels asked to be reincarnated, but God replied... "Only if you're willing to have your effectiveness cut in half and your body odor doubled!"

It's interesting (to me) that the attacks lately seem to all be directed at Walz, not Harris. They really don't know how to deal with a strong, intelligent Black woman candidate.

Either that, or they unthinkingly* assume that the old white guy is by definition at the top of the ticket.

*Yes, I know.

Plus, they detest an honest decent man

Could it possibly be that the rwnjs have finally assimilated the fact that open racism (their first impulse when confronted with an opposing candidate who is a WOC) would not go over very well with anyone aside from their base, which by itself is not strong enough to prevail? That , due to their association with quite open and vicious racists, their brand is tainted? So they have to limit themselves to dog whistles that only their crowd will hear and recognize, lest they alienate the mushy middle?

I suppose it’s to be expected, given that Walz was just announced as VP pick this Tuesday. Maybe they are counting on the fact that Walz isn’t well-known, so the GQP is hoping to define him before he has a chance to define himself. They’re probably also a bit pissed that Vance has been a drag on the ticket, because of his off-putting past comments and complete lack of charisma.

But it is interesting that they feel more comfortable going after Walz. The attempted swift-boating, led by a disgruntled RWNJ. The pearl-clutching over the couch joke. And now the China thing.

They really haven’t got anything, do they?

Grennell & Cotton are wildly insane from Confederate Loser Syndrome.

Hmm... let's see... between TFG and Walz, which one has a bank account in China?

Gotta point out that, unlike the preferred demonization tactics western authoritarians use against their political enemies, Chinese authoritarians generally prefer to erase public knowledge of their existence. A proper Chinese agent would not even MENTION things like Tianammen Square, the Dalai Lama or the Uighur people, even for deception. That's not how the Chinese regime rolls.

Clearly he is a spy for Gyna. Here he is seen grroming his child with Tigger who is a friend of Winnie the Pooh which is the code name for Xi (which is why the Chinese Government prevents the Milne characters from being in China). Its so obvious sheeple!

Tom Cotton is the answer to a question that no one in their right mind ever asked.
