I'm so sick of Jesse Watters. More so than I ever was of Bill O'Reilly, Lou Dobbs or Tucker Carlson.

The Politics Thread
In a way, it reminds me of all those holier-than-thou, Susan Sarandon types who felt (and, I guess, still feel) no compunction whatsoever for not voting for Hillary Clinton in 2016. In both cases, you have individuals or groups who wield entirely too much power and/or influence, without giving a toss to how their decisions will affect the country as a whole; and in both cases, you have individuals and groups looking like a bunch of fools in the end, too. I've said it before, and I'll say it again: we are where we are, because the Democrats allowed the GOP and the MSM to control the narrative that Joe Biden was some fossil in need of Depends and a bib to catch his drool. There'd be no need for Kamala Harris to run, because voters would be aware of all the work that the Biden administration has done to save us from ourselves. In turn, they would be behind him all the way. (I mean, people can cite all those lousy polls all they want, but I say that the polls wouldn't have been so bad for Biden if the Democratic Party and the MSM had simply done their jobs.) And you know what else really gets my proverbial goat? All these people who couldn't wait to shove Biden's ass off to the retirement village and wave bye-bye now giving him all kinds of flowers for efforts like with the prisoner swap. I'm sorry, but I just don't think you should have the right or the privilege now to praise him and lift his name up on high after you've gone out of your way to embarrass him. Clearly, you're just trying to assuage your guilt.

I loved that moment, too. Just as I loved Biden "joking" with the reporter that they're stuck with him 'til November. (He wasn't kiddin', folks!). After all that he's been subjected to, he might as well read people for filth on his way out!

Exactly. Here we all were, kvetching about how Joe Biden was too old and too feeble to keep going. Meanwhile, Grandpa was working BTS, orchestrating the biggest and most important prisoner swap since the Cold War. If that's what you call feeble...! We oughta be ashamed of ourselves for giving him no choice but to drop out of the race.

Frankly, if I were Joe Biden, I'd tell them all to go straight to hell. After the way he has been treated - by the media, by the GOP, by all the asshats on YT and social media, and especially by people from within his own party - I think he has earned himself the right.

Ariana reminds me of Martha Madison (ex-Belle, DAYS) in that clip.

Yet, there are folks on both sides who insist Joe Biden is too feeble to run again or even remain in office.

I think what irks me about the "controversy" surrounding Kamala Harris' ethnicity is the perception from many that she can't be African-American AND Indian-American, too; that she needs to "pick a side," as it were. I, myself, happen to be African-American and Muscogee (or Creek) Nation Indian on my mother's side, and Indian and Chinese on my father's. My father immigrated to the U.S. in 1972, after spending much of his life in his native Georgetown, British Guyana; while my mother was born and raised in small town Oklahoma, with most of her relatives (both biological and adoptive) still in the area. Most of the time, I self-identify as African-American, because that is the part of my heritage with which I am most familiar; but in fact, I am proud of my entire heritage and ALL my ancestors, on BOTH sides, and I would never deny either side for any reason; and I resent the implication from Black AND White people that I can't embrace both.

Who in their right mind would have signed off on Donald Trump appearing at an event like the NABJ in the first damn place!? Clearly, there's someone on Team Trump who hates him and lives for every opportunity to embarrass him, especially among POC, lol! I agree, lol!

I'm friends with him on FB. From what I can tell, Eric hasn't done or said anything to merit the multiple timeouts. Methinks it's the work of trolls reporting him to Meta.

A bit rough, but he's still invited to the cookout. (Just don't bring any light beer, okay, Parker?)

I agree. They're just posturing for the sake of posturing. In the end, they either will vote third party or (more likely) sit it out. On a related note: good ol' reliable Nina Turner is warning Kamala Harris that she will lose progressives if she picks Josh Shapiro for her VP. This, of course, begs the question: who da fuq even LISTENS to Nina Turner anymore?

DAYS: Our hopes for the new HW’s
Amen! Humor and comedy on soaps are fine, but only to counterbalance the heavier, more serious goings-on.
