May God Rest Their Soul!

Heh. The liberal press (I apologize for the unnecessary adjective) will claim that Trump is calling for assassinations! The singuar noun "soul", however, may refer to whatever remains of the Democrat Party's metaphorical soul. Either Biden or Sanders will filet that soul rather nicely.

He’ll probably get 18 more months of a good economy.

Conrad Black is even more confident,.

I just say "Don't get cocky."

The sensible majority of Democrats note that their party, on the heels of the Russian-collusion disaster, has completely bungled the border-and-migration issue and has gone down in flames with the claim that it is a crisis manufactured by the president. They have watched in silent horror as their party has been stampeded to the left, and the search is already under way for a moderate candidate.

The crazy left will not allow this.

A man who made billions building things and managing large work forces and projects versus two who made millions on thousand dollar salaries through the graft of corruption in our government. Pretty easy choice even if they all had exactly the same policies, which of course they don't, and that's another thing that should make it easy for any reasonably intelligent person who wants honest government. Neither Democrat could come out clean from an investigation like Trump has been put through for 2 years. Biden, especially has real payola skeletons.

Have you noticed how many Democrats make millions on government salaries that could never produce such wealth? Seems a little fishy and almost a defining characteristic of a Democrat in government.

"Crazy Bernie Sanders" and "Sleepy Joe Biden" are good. And he is a master, while I remain a mere peon in this vast game of life.

However.

I have been using:

"One-Percent Bernie" and "Hair-Sniffer Joe."

Mine are more colorful and potent. "One-Percent Bernie" just flows off the lips, like a fine Chardonnay. "Hair-Sniffer Joe" will no doubt make Dems cringe.

stevew म्हणाले...

It was jovial because he said Sleepy instead of Creepy. I'm convinced he genuinely likes Joe Biden. My only evidence is his tweets, which I know isn't much. But there it is.

Crazy Bernie Sanders has the ring of truth to it for many people. The folks that are offended by that nickname, namely Bernie's supporters, would never vote for Trump.

Ilhan Omar Republican Chuck: "President Bone Spurs has such a deft touch in targeting his rivals with nicknames.

LLR Chuck is so defensive about his own lack of service to his nation that he spent hundreds of words on this very blog attempting to justify his decision not to serve when all he had to write was something along the lines of "I didn't serve".

I'd like to see an analysis of the change in wealth of some politicians before holding office compared after to after, and then compare those between Republican and Democratic ones. It seems to me that the Republican don't seems to profit anywhere near as much from the job as Democrats. The Clintons, The Obamas, Maxine Waters, Harry Reid, and many others went from barely wealthy to enormously wealthy very quickly. How day do dat?

Drago म्हणाले...

It is impossible to miss the obvious: Biden took 5 deferments to avoid service in Vietnam.

Number of LLR Chuck criticisms of Biden for that? Zero

Number of LLR Chuck criticisms of Bernie for supporting the Soviet Union and honeymooning there and going shirtless with his commie pals there? Zero

If your first assessment of this set of facts is that Chuck is operationally aligned with the far left, you would be correct.

From Snopes (no friend of Trump for sure):

"1968:
Trump received his fourth and final college deferment on 16 January 1968. After graduating from Wharton, he was reclassified 1-A on 9 July 1968. Trump underwent an Armed Forces physical examination (with a result listed only as “DISQ”) on 19 September 1968 and was reclassified 1-Y (qualified for service only in time of war or national emergency) on 15 October 1968.

According to a statement from the Trump campaign, the 1-Y classification stemmed from Trump’s having bone spurs in both heels:

While attending the University of Pennsylvania’s prestigious Wharton School of Finance, Mr. Trump received a minor medical deferment for bone spurs on both heels of his feet. The medical deferment was expected to be short-term and he was therefore entered in the military draft lottery, where he received an extremely high number, 356 out of 365.

The details of that medical exemption remain unclear and controversial, and most draft-related government medical records from the Vietnam era were not preserved.

1972:
Despite the supposedly “short-term” nature of Trump’s disqualifying physical condition, on 17 February 1972 he was reclassified 4-F (not qualified for military service), presumably due to the abolishment of the 1-Y classification the previous year."


The 1960's called and want their "scandal" back.

wildswan म्हणाले...

Interesting, since I think Hillary is swimming along with the others but masquerading as dead in the water like a log. But that log is an alligator. So Conrad Black says Dem people are launching campaigns that slide down the slipway and sink; but to me Hillary was lurking there and snip, snap, quickly pulled it under. After all, according to Shattered, in the runup to 2016 Bill went about the country sinking primary contenders and maybe it's happening again. On the other hand Trump knows a lot we don't know. Maybe the Death Star has a hidden vulnerability. Just now I was reading that there was no evidence seen by the FBI that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton intentionally exposed classified material because the FBI was not allowed to see the emails that were intentionally placed on an insecure server because the emails that were intentionally exposed were classified so that we know there were intentionally exposed classified emails but also we do not know it. Schrodinger's cat. Comey allowed this sort of nonsense. As did Brennan.

They're less inclined to respond then in the early heyday of Presidental twitter tweeting surprising tweets at everybody. Sanders was on Fox the other day? Harder to drive the narrative with all the new candidates running around and going on TV.

He wants to be in the room where it happens. The room where it happens. The room where it happens. No one really knows how the game is played. The art of the trade. How the sausage gets made.

bagoh20 म्हणाले...

Can you imagine listening to Bernie squawking day in and day out for four years? He sounds like a borscht belt comic with the worst jokes ever. Whenever I see him on TV, I keep expecting a hook to come out from stage left and drag him off stage.

The Vault Dweller म्हणाले...

Trump is really good at trolling with his tweets. He has mastered the ability to have the tone be brusque enough to irk the Left, but not be too overly mean to turn off those in the middle. I think he does with his constant tweets, off-the-cuff comments to the media, and performance at rallies. It is especially easy to see how he does it at successive rallies. He is constantly tweaking what he says and how he delivers his message. I honestly don't know how I can go back to any other person as president after Trump. Whoever is next is going to feel so stale and fake.

Michael K म्हणाले...

I have a theory that Trump will wait until mid 2020 to release his tax returns for ten years.

Call it "Mueller II." Maddow got a leaked tax return from 1995. You could see the air leak out of her as she read that he had paid $25 million in income tax that year.

He might even release copies of x-rays of his heel spurs, just for Chuck.

About 40 minutes ago I was x-rayed for a possible bone spur on my ankle. I do not find bone spurs to be one bit funny.

Speaking as a Vietnam Era draftee, I do not find it objectionable that Donald Trump received a medical deferment. I am not aware that anyone in the Althouse commentariat who is not a Vietnam or a Vietnam Era veteran has standing to complain.

With a lottery number of 356, the switch from 1-Y to 4-F in 1972 was irrelevant. My draft number was half his, and after I went 1-A that same year, they only got up to maybe 60-80 that year, and they quit drafting in maybe September. The thing that got him out of the war was the 2-Y in 1968-1969, because even in the worst draft years, they never would have gotten as high as 356. Most of the guys I knew with numbers that high dropped their 2-S student deferments, knowing that they were essentially draft proof. Of course, back in 1968, American lives were still being squandered by LBJ grossly mismanaging the fighting the war. It was only after four years of Nixon fighting to win that I could graduate from college and not expect to spend my last several months in the rice paddy’s in Vietnam.

OT but is about Trump. Anyone see this?

The Trump administration will allow lawsuits in U.S. courts for the first time against foreign companies that use properties Communist-ruled Cuba confiscated since Fidel Castro’s revolution six decades ago, a senior U.S. official said on Tuesday.

The major policy shift, which will be announced on Wednesday, could expose U.S., European and Canadian companies to legal action and deal a blow to Cuba’s efforts to attract more foreign investment. It is also another sign of Washington’s efforts to punish Havana over its support for Venezuela’s socialist President Nicolas Maduro.

Wrong again, even with the evidence in plain sight via Trump's tweet.

Trump's tweet was amusing and jocular.

Chuck, you see why that nickname is ineffective for targeting Trump, right? You just called him President! You're talking past the sale.

This is why Trump has such a high chance of re-election. He's already President! Before his election nobody knew what he would be like. Effective, ineffective, crazy, dark, Hitler, etc. After his election, you know. You may not like it, but you know.

Trump has to be ecstatic that the Mueller Report is coming out. Barr's pre-release conclusion letter totally took away CNN and MCNBC's reputations and half their audience to the point that the Murdock family is now giving their FOX News a Trans Surgery making it into a substitute for the liberal Fake News boys.

And the panic mounts in DC.

@wwww, per the Emerson poll that Althouse blogged, all the women put together only come up to 15% or so. Biden and Sanders together poll over 50%. Trump is trying to goad Biden into declaring, then if he is the nominee all sorts of political ads showing him creepily touching young girls will be released, coupled with political ads showing the numerous Biden gaffes.

God have mercy, indeed.

Cranky Trump म्हणाले...

Drumpf isn’t sounding all too jovial here.

"So weird to watch Crazy Bernie on @FoxNews," Trump tweeted of the town hall featuring the Vermont senator that ran on Fox News Monday night. "Not surprisingly, @BretBaier and the 'audience' was so smiley and nice. Very strange, and now we have @donnabrazile?"

"Many Trump Fans & Signs were outside of the @FoxNews Studio last night in the now thriving (Thank you President Trump) Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, for the interview with Crazy Bernie Sanders. Big complaints about not being let in-stuffed with Bernie supporters. What's with @FoxNews?"

Yeah, it's Trump driving all the attention towards Biden, not Biden dangling this or that and lefty media being all over it.

Similar to the transparently false lefty narrative that its those darn conservatives forcing all the AOC/Omar/Tlaib coverage and not the wall to wall lefty/MSM/LLR over the top praise and magazine covers and TV appearances and MSM lefty narrative boosting of their lefty messages.

Too funny.

Biden and Sanders together poll over 50%.

1) n-value was below 400 in that poll.

2) It's name recognition. Nobody normal is paying attention this early. Not everyone has declared. Not just talking about Biden but chat about Kerry and Terry what's his name, and who knows who else? Don't believe Sanders had declared at this point in the cycle.

3) Ads would be ineffective because nobody normal is paying attention now.

mccullough म्हणाले...

Biden has enough name recognition and a donor network that he can enter the race at a normal tome. He’s hanging on the fringes so as to deter donors from backing another candidate. It’s a reverse Jeb! strategy. Jeb! locked in the donors early to elbow out others.

The Sleepy Joe sobriquet evokes Low Energy Jeb. Biden doesn’t have the stamina for this. Like Jeb!, he’s a paper frontrunner. Backed by the establishment but without energetic support.

Kevin म्हणाले...

Was just thinking this morning about how Joe has yet to announce.

Either he's using the delay as a ploy to keep people talking about him (see: this post)

Or there is a lot of backchannel pressure going on to not run that he's trying to clear up before he's officially in the race.

For the good of the party, it's better if they show him what they've got before he announces and has to withdraw, no?

Joe already knows what they have on him because he knows what he's been up to.

The story of the pressure he exerted on Ukraine to dump the internal investigator looking into the Ukrainian company that handed his son $3M to be on the board is simply another shot across his bow: hey Joe, think twice before you get in.

My money on that one is the Clinton Never Say Die Camp pulled that off as a warning. Not that, in the end, it will do Hillary any good.

Michelle is the Chose One whose "appearance" is already scripted and will be rolled out for maximum effect near the end of the primaries or at the convention.

I enlisted in 1975, just after I turned 17. Officially, that makes me a "Vietnam -era" veteran, but the last American troops had left Vietnam when I was only 15. So the designation is kind of bogus. But I did serve for 7 years, and I really don't care if a Presidential candidate served or not, unless he's criticizing others for not serving. Trump hasn't done that, so he gets a pass.

bill Clinton "dodged" the draft literally. Bush-II served in the Air national guard. Obama was too young.

Cheney went to divinity school or maybe he was having his annual heart attack.
