gee-- will the media lie to you about Biden/Harris too???; 8/11/20, 3:52 PM

Ken B said...: I really only have two predictions I am reasonably confident in.
Any jurisdiction the Democrats win will implement quotas.
If Biden wins Blue states will get complete bailouts at the expense of red states.; 8/11/20, 3:56 PM
Readering said...: Taken from an anti-Reagan ad 1980?; 8/11/20, 3:57 PM
JPS said...: They really are ruthless about picking the most befuddled-looking shots of Biden.

I mean, he doesn't look like that all the time, does he?

Pretty sure there's a disgusting racist history behind the word "phony." I mean, I don't know, but there's got to be, so I'll just put that down now and go dig for support. Also, "embracing the radical left" is a dog-whistle.; 8/11/20, 3:58 PM

rehajm said...: Joe's caregiver Jill Biden (she's a doctor) clearly believes Kamala called Joe a racist and while Kamala asked for an apology from Joe she never demonstrated acceptance of whatever Joe called an apology...until now, if you call joining the ticket an acceptance.; 8/11/20, 4:17 PM

gspencer said...: Shrewd move by Joe. He's now locked up all of CA's EC votes.; 8/11/20, 4:21 PM
Chris Lopes said...: Unfortunately, Trump has stepped into the truth on this one.; 8/11/20, 4:22 PM
Big Mike said...: And that’s without some angry black woman complaining into a camera how Harris locked up her son for a gazillion years for having a little bit of marijuana on him while she was using weed herself.; 8/11/20, 4:24 PM
Drago said...: Readering: "Taken from an anti-Reagan ad 1980?"

Provide a link for comparison.

But don't worry, we won't hold our breath or anything.; 8/11/20, 4:27 PM
gbarto said...: It's funny. The Twitter folks are saying Trump must be scare if they had the ad ready to go. I remember when they used to celebrate Bill Clinton's "rapid response" from the "war room."

At any rate, not impressed by the ad. They should be highlighting Biden's crime bill and Harris' penchant for locking up African-Americans and contrasting with the First Step Act. Their best bet isn't to scream about the left, but to separate Biden-Harris from the Democratic base.; 8/11/20, 4:28 PM
5M - Eckstine said...: She owns the favorite hair spray that breathed life into Biden.

A true to life Disney fable.; 8/11/20, 4:30 PM

Also, in a shock to the sane.; 8/11/20, 4:33 PM

so Jo? Does Kamela's hair smell nice? Or does it smell like jizz?; 8/11/20, 4:42 PM
Jim at said...: Republicans never complain when a man raises taxes!

Yeah. Because that would certainly explain George H.W. Bush's successful re-election effort, wouldn't it?

Do you people even think about what you spew? Or do you just spew and hope nobody notices?; 8/11/20, 4:48 PM
Bilwick said...: Wonder how "liberal" State-fellators would refute this. Among themselves they're all, "Taxes, taxes, more taxes!" But when confronted on this, it's all, "Who us?" Parallels their position on gun-control.; 8/11/20, 4:48 PM
Balfegor said...: Other than the nicknames, seems really generic. I think Trump's campaign should go in a more humorous direction. Biden is a somewhat comic figure already ("lying dog faced pony soldier," "malarkey," etc.), and I think there's some material to work with on Harris.; 8/11/20, 4:49 PM
Skeptical Voter said...: She;s a pragmatic moderate? Well she could be. Like a good little working girl, she will assume any position you want. Some positions of hers are more "fake' than others.
And the "moderate" part of pragmatic moderate is the biggest fake of all.

Pragmatic though, that's where Kamala really shines. If she has to let Joe sniff her hair 24.7 she's up for the task.; 8/11/20, 4:51 PM
Sprezzatura said...: So this ad is about the fake faced, internet hack supported, Willy pal who is involved in leaks re Biden is a puppet.

I know all about her. I'm a loyal reader re Althouse!; 8/11/20, 4:58 PM
Sprezzatura said...: "They should be highlighting Biden's crime bill and Harris' penchant for locking up African-Americans and contrasting with the First Step Act."

Right. DJT should call the Ds the Law and Order candidates.; 8/11/20, 5:02 PM

Narayanan said...: Trump ad calling her radical leftist is additional affirmation for Biden-Harris base.

are not majority of the swing voters are college educated too - will not see that as negative; 8/11/20, 5:26 PM
bagoh20 said...: So, it's Kamala. Now somebody needs to tell Joe, and get him to remember it. Put it on the back of his hand in ink - phonetic spelling, of course.

Democrats really have a way of pushing unaccomplished frauds to the highest office on Earth. If aliens came to help us, I think they would vaporize the DNC as a first step toward saving our species.; 8/11/20, 5:32 PM

Drago said...: When it comes to the women who have accused Joe Biden of sexually assaulting them, Kamala had this to say:

“I believe them and I respect them being able to tell their story and having the courage to do it,” --Kamala Harris, April 2019

I guess all that groping and sniffing of adolescent girls isn't going to help Joe's case there, is it?; 8/11/20, 5:40 PM

I was thinking he will tie it to her new face (which looks awful) and once people make the connection they will not be able to disconnect the two.; 8/11/20, 6:20 PM

MSNBC and other lefty outfits are "helpfully" obscuring the literal script Biden was using in his call to Kamala!

Biden's Dementia will be the fake media's FDR wheelchair for the campaign.; 8/11/20, 6:47 PM
Rick.T. said...: "If Biden wins Blue states will get complete bailouts at the expense of red states."

The Blue State mayors and governors are praying for this daily. I have no doubt they have little interest in opening up their economies. Illnois alone has well over $100 billion of just unfunded pension liabilities from decades of giveaways to the public sector.; 8/11/20, 6:51 PM
Gk1 said...: Meh, its early. For a canned ad campaign it is what I would expect.

The photo of Harris and Joe together makes it look like Harris is some jamaican nurse taking Joe out for his daily walk. Her youth and vitality compared to Joe is a jarring look.; 8/11/20, 7:00 PM

Drago said...: More News From The Front (for Inga's and Howard's Heroes):

Just yesterday during the non-riot riots which involved non-violent violence and were mostly peaceful except for all the non-peaceful stuff, Howard's and Inga's Heroes literally attacked.....(wait for it)....(wait for it)....(wait for it).....

.....Ronald McDonald House.

Yes. Ronald McDonald House.

Howard's and Inga's Heroes "smashed the widows and doors in the front of the building with the 30 families of frighted children and parents as well as staff inside."

Remember, Inga and Howard called these stalwart "heroes" the literal equivalent of our Normandy-invading D-Day soldiers.

Maybe my history is a little rusty, but I can't quite recall our Normandy soldiers purposely attacking a hospital full of children.

But then again, one has to remember that when the dems see children, what they really see is basically a set of body parts that can be sold off for profit......even if their hearts are still beating....

Inga is going to hate that link because it references under oath testimony. Inga hates under oath testimony. Not as much as LLR-lefty Chuck hates conservative republicans with military service in their backgrounds, but still.; 8/11/20, 7:37 PM
Drago said...: LLR-lefty Chuck: "Hahahaha!
Who is that ad aimed at? The 43% who are already totally committed to voting for Trump?"

LLE-lefty Chuck's criticism makes more sense when you recall that Chuck has already explicitly stated he is in full support of Biden's far left agenda and policies, without exception.

Open borders, infanticide, Green New Deal, raising taxes, capitulating to China and the EU on trade, etc.; 8/11/20, 7:47 PM
Sprezzatura said...: "Biden's Dementia will be the fake media's FDR wheelchair for the campaign."

Don't you want to say that it will be like the fake media's claim that HRC shouldn't be locked up, or their claim that Kerry didn't Swift Boat stuff, and when they were in favor of the jabber re chad stuff should be counted more, and so on?

Can you spot the fake news implication you're spreading sans my helpful edits?

PS: BHO jabbered re that there are sixty states, not "all 57". So much wrong is not a good look. Especially when the errors are so frequent. IMHO.

Be Best!; 8/11/20, 7:52 PM
Drago said...: Its too bad Biden didnt have the courage to select the ferociously heterosexual Cory Booker.

That would have nailed down the LGBTQ vote for Slow Joe.....; 8/11/20, 8:08 PM

Consider them very late term abortions and it is fine with Howard, Inga and Chuck. Plus those damned "Breeders" in Ronald McDonald House are an offense to Mayor lightintheloafers and ferociously heterosexual Booker.; 8/11/20, 9:36 PM

Robert Barnes
@Barnes_Law

In order to appeal to disaffected black voters who might lean toward protest voting (Kanye) or not voting (2016), Democrats ingeniously picked the one black candidate whose parents are not from America, whose ancestors had slaves, and who spent her career locking up black men.

He'd be better off highlighting Harris's aggressive prosecution of people for marijuana possession, while laughing at being asked about her own marijuana use. Or saying she believes the accusations against Biden. This is going to be a nasty election, and he should let the Dems condemn themselves out of their own mouths.; 8/13/20, 9:04 AM
