President Biden: The NEW one and only politics thread

I never did as far as I know. Is there a post where I said that? But he’s certainly not now.

 

You all ought to have to do lifetime community service for forcing this jester on the public.
And supporting and enabling his policies, as you've amply done.
He was never ready for primetime.

 

Clinton is a hell of a lot smarter than DeSantis.

Sad!

Trump's Fox News Town Hall Ratings Way Off From Even His Tepid May CNN Performance

 

Back around Memorial Day the memes were flying around about how the LGBTQ were getting their own month when all Veterans got was Memorial Day. Beau pointed out that May, when all those memes started popping up and this was much discussed on Fox, was actually Military Appreciation Month, which somehow seems to have totally escaped notice. Then there's Armed Forces Day, Memorial Day, Military Family Appreciation Month, Military Spouse Appreciation Day, and Veteran's Day. I suppose we can throw in the Fourth of July and Flag Day on general principle.

You think someone might have neglected to mention those in order to make for better anti-LGBT propaganda?

 

It's more than that. Remember Karl Rove's "Attack their strength directly" strategy? Who's making the most political capital off of "combating the woke agenda"? DeSantis. If Trump can actually persuade a substantial portion of his base that attacking "woke" is a meaningless bit of political rhetoric and that "No one even knows that that means", then all the time and effort that DeSantis has put into focusing his all his efforts as Governor on being anti-woke will have been wasted. He'll have to hit reset and find a new campaign strategy altogether.

 

I’m waiting for someone to air a commercial with children running to hug various Disney characters and the voice over saying “why does DeSantis want to take this away from them?”

 

Very interesting take on this. I'm not smart enough to agree or deny, but looking forward to the debate.

 

I'm sorry ... I think that's what I wrote.

 

That's from Beau, too, the idea that the one thing that Trump really understands is branding (and thus tearing down branding). I don't link him much here anymore because some people kept griping about it, but the guy's smart. So once in a while I cop one of his lines and throw it in here and see what reaction it draws.
