Dixie said...: Can you imagine driving up to pick up your kid's Happy Meal and having it be handed to you by a former President of the United States? Having your Happy Meal handed to you by Donald J. Trump?

This is why people like Trump and they don't like Kamala Harris: Kamala Harris claimed falsely to have worked at McDonalds because she wants people to think she's a "man of the people." In reality, she grew up rich in Canada with her Indian family (you know, the Jamaican slavers who literally owned black people). She's not black. She's barely American. Her father is a literal Marxist. And she has always been "above" the rest of us.

Donald Trump on the other hand saw this and said you know what? I'm going to go WORK at a McDonalds and see what it's like. He's been to McDonalds a million times. Dude lives on that food. Eats it on Trump Force One. He's literally "just like us."

Kamala Harris could have just GONE TO WORK at McDonalds too. But she didn't. That never occurred to her. She could have made the front page of every newspaper in the country had she donned the Golden Arches uniform to shut up the haters. But she didn't. Donald Trump did.

You get to vote soon. These are your two choices. I know who I want facing Putin.

Vote wisely.; 10/20/24, 7:00 PM

Meanwhile: Apparent Kamala supporter says she is going to be eating dog food until Kamala wins.; 10/20/24, 7:09 PM
Mrs. Palmer’s Smile said...: The Biden economy is so strong businesses are willing to hire convicted felons out on bail.

No mention that the whole thing was staged and the McDonald’s wasn’t even open?

Harris is living rent free in the empty space between his ears; 10/20/24, 7:11 PM
Dixcus said...: McDonalds frequently trains new employees outside of store hours. What's your problem, lady? Why is Kamala Harris so keen to lie to people about having worked in a McDonalds and Donald Trump isn't so big that he can't show up for training? You people disgust me.; 10/20/24, 7:15 PM
Dixcus said...: It's his first day and you people just can't wait to find something to gripe about. That's why people don't like ya'll. You're a bunch of assholes.; 10/20/24, 7:16 PM
tcrosse said...: The felon isn't convicted until he's sentenced. I doubt the Secret Service would allow Trump to stand at the drive through where some enlightened Democrat could put a shotgun to his face.; 10/20/24, 7:16 PM
Inga said...: Mrs. Palmer…

LOL!; 10/20/24, 7:17 PM

See, this is the kind of thing for which you have squandered your credibility.; 10/20/24, 7:17 PM

Apparently, this idiot doesn't realize Kamala is already in office. Democrats be dumb.; 10/20/24, 7:21 PM
MadTownGuy said...: Foliage fireworks in #4!; 10/20/24, 7:29 PM
Dixcus said...: Yes, but Kamala Harris hasn't "won" anything yet. She rode Biden's skirt-tails on the back of Willie Brown's Big Brown Adventure Pole then couldn't win a single ... not a single ... nominating election or delegate in the Democrat Party. Then had to have Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi - who will soon be in Guantanamo - executing a coup for her.

Gonna be fun to watch her put up against the wall.; 10/20/24, 7:30 PM

FullMoon said...: Decade ago there was JJs Blues bar in San Jose. Kind of a dive but a great place. Loud music and happy people. No fights, no obnoxious drunks.

Anyway, Kamala reminds me of those days when she is doing a one on one friendly interview. Loud talk, in order to be heard over the music, big smile, frequent long ,loud laughter. And always the open handed, arms slightly raised posture which is only missing the drink in her hand.

If she is actually drinking before speeches, would seem to be a little to calm her nerves.; 10/20/24, 7:33 PM

And we are really, really enjoying this one.

I'd like to thank Inga for turning Republicans on to this excellent tutorial book.; 10/20/24, 7:38 PM
Mrs. Palmer’s Smile said...: The two amazing things about Trump's stupid McDonald's stunt today are — first, the location was closed so it was, like everything else they do, fake — and second, it's more evidence of how deeply wounded he is by Harris and how easily he is narcissistically triggered by her.; 10/20/24, 7:39 PM
Dixcus said...: "Wine Mom" is not a good look when World War III is about to start.

Especially when your husband is known to punch chicks.; 10/20/24, 7:39 PM
rehajm said...: I learned today RCP claims Texas is a battleground state. Did they hire Georgia’s ‘Republicans’ to run their elections or something?; 10/20/24, 7:44 PM
Dixcus said...: There's TWO headlines tonight:

1) Donald Trump serves up some tasty tasty trolling ... and also fries!

2) Kamala Harris rallygoer reveals her 'evil' response (Daily Mail)

Pick the headline you want your candidate to be under 15 days before the election.; 10/20/24, 7:44 PM
rehajm said...: I didn’t have time to hunt down a cider doughnut when I was up north last week 😕; 10/20/24, 7:46 PM
Dixcus said...: I hope it's a battleground state when the war starts. Shouldn't be too hard to find ammo.; 10/20/24, 7:46 PM
Christopher B said...: Obama claims to have created a detailed pandemic playbook that Trump ignored. (Ed Driscoll @ Instapundit)

I get that Birx and Fauci wrote their tell-alls primarily for their own self-congratulation but as far as I know neither claimed Trump was ignoring a detailed plan developed by the Obama administration versus simply ignoring or obstructing plans they were developing on the fly. Biden slagged on Trump constantly for his administration's COVID response but again I don't recall him ever suggesting that he was going to start using a previously developed plan.; 10/20/24, 8:02 PM
Creola Soul said...: More beautiful fall color! Thank you!; 10/20/24, 8:10 PM
Original Mike said...: Where do they sell those?; 10/20/24, 8:11 PM
Breezy said...: Obama is just trying to get under Trump’s skin. The fact that Fauci and Birx were driving the response bus is all you need to know to determine Obama is lying.; 10/20/24, 8:16 PM
Breezy said...: You have to wonder why Obama would damage his reputation so badly in order to save Harris’s candidacy. He knows she’s a loser, but still goes out and tells these whoppers about how it’s actually his economy that did so well in the Trump years, and now this about this playbook? Also lecturing black men…. I dunno - but he’s pushing all his fake chips into the pot for some reason.; 10/20/24, 8:21 PM
Bob B said...: The problem is either Biden/Harris used the Obama plan or didn’t. If he used the plan, it didn’t deliver, as more COVID deaths occurred during The year after Biden/Harris took office than during the year Trump dealt with COVID. If he didn’t use the plan, shouldn’t Obama hold Biden/Harris equally at fault and urge people not to vote for either candidate.; 10/20/24, 8:22 PM
Mason G said...: "Yes, but Kamala Harris hasn't "won" anything yet."

She could have. Biden is a turnup. If she had any ambition or ability, she could have done a lot already.; 10/20/24, 8:26 PM

FullMoon said...: Unfortunately easy to imagine Harris contributing to escalation in order to get street cred.; 10/20/24, 9:40 PM
Mrs. Palmer’s Smile said...: So in an effort to highlight his claim that Kamala Harris never worked at McDonald’s, Trump pretended to work at a closed McDonald’s where he served pretend orders to supporters pretending to be customers. Is that right....; 10/20/24, 9:46 PM

Instead of being butthurt over Trump clearly having fun on the campaign trail, maybe you should be asking why Kamala didn't do it first?; 10/20/24, 11:07 PM
Iman said...: “Democracy Dies In Darkness”.

With that coup, Democracy Died in Plain Sight.; 10/20/24, 11:15 PM
Drago said...: It seems like only yesterday the hoax-filled kamala-la-la-la-la campaign, which is credibly accused of being in communication with the completely corrupt harris/garland DOJ, cleared out an entire fast food store and had stand ins pretending to be customers while kamala-la-la-la-la "bought" her doritos!

LOL

And we all saw how that bit of fakery failed....bevause the New Soviet Democraticals despise workers and the democraticals are genetically incapable of hiding it.; 10/21/24, 12:42 AM
Drago said...: Which is why Trump is calling for McDonalds to return to using beef tallow for frying fries instead of using seed oils.

Do try and keep up.

And I know I speak for everyone on this side of the political fence when I say thank you for your inability to hide your hatred of the working class.; 10/21/24, 1:01 AM
Drago said...: Why is Stolen Valor / Blue Falcon Walz in Omaha today? Shouldn't NE-2 have been nailed down long ago by the New Soviet Democraticals?; 10/21/24, 1:12 AM

🇳🇴 In 2022 Norway increased wealth tax to 1.1%, expected to bring in an additional $146M tax revenue.

Individuals with a net worth of $54B left the country, led to a $594M loss in tax revenue.

A net decrease of $448M+ 📉

How dare you "Brothas" not listen to me and defy my will...be glad Michelle is not here. Huh? So, the crowned prince of progressive socialism is now relegated to anger, threats, and demanding obedience."

wendybar said...: WHY are the DOJ suing STATES to keep illegals and dead people on the voter rolls, if they didn't intend for the Progressives to cheat?? There is no other explanation in a NORMAL country.

"Winsome Sears told Maria Bartiromo that several thousand noncitizens were on Virginia’s voters.

“What we found, over 6,000 – 6,300 people… who identify that they’re not citizens — and yet they’re on voter rolls,” Winsome Sears said.

She continued, “We found people who have been dead since 1960 who were still on the voter rolls.”

This is why the Biden-Harris DOJ is fighting so hard against efforts to clean up Virginia’s voter rolls."

gadfly said...: From Arnold Palmer's older daughter, Peg in September 2018:

"My dad was a complicated person," Peg told me . . . "He grew up poor and became rich. He was a Goldwater Republican and believed in the Republican party. He and I learned not to discuss politics together. We saw things very differently, and there was no sense in fighting about it. Apart from our general political differences, he felt I didn't understand how hard it had been for him to make his fortune and the compromises he'd had to make to be successful and stay successful, not just in golf but in the business world. It wasn't as easy as it looked."

As for Trump, Peg recalled, "My dad had dealings with him over the years at some charity fundraisers and a few other events that had to do with Trump's golf courses. My dad cherished golf and he appreciated Trump's support for the game. Trump looked up to my dad, so I suspect he was on his best behavior when they were together. But in the campaign, my dad saw a different side of him."

"My dad didn't like people who act like they're better than others," Peg continued. "He didn't like it when people were nasty and rude. He didn't like it when someone was disrespectful to someone else. My dad had no patience for people who demean other people in public. He had no patience for people who are dishonest and cheat. My dad was disciplined. He wanted to be a good role model. He was appalled by Trump's lack of civility and what he began to see as Trump's lack of character."

"One moment stands out in my mind," Peg recounted. "My dad and I were at home in Latrobe. He died in September, so this was before the election. The television was on. Trump was talking. My dad made a sound of disgust — like 'uck' or 'ugg' — like he couldn't believe the arrogance and crudeness of this man nominated by the political party he believed in. Then he said, 'He's not as smart as we thought he was,'" and walked out of the room. What would my dad think of Donald Trump today? I think he'd cringe."; 10/21/24, 4:38 AM
gadfly said...: Wendy: Allen West is full of hate. West was charged with violating Articles 128 (assault) and 134 (general article) of the Uniform Code of Military Justice and was convicted in an Article 15 proceeding while in Iraq.

Barack Obama had no control over the names he was given nor the religion he was taught as a child. When did you ever see him angry and as threatening as Trump lives his life? Don't get me wrong - I have never liked Obama but if you are old enough to recall, his campaign against Hillary was polite and respectful - something we cannot say about Trump.; 10/21/24, 5:04 AM
rehajm said...: The best ones are in Ballston Lake, NY but outside Boston 128 there’s some good ones at the farms. Surprisingly the Whole Foods in Dedham had a machine making little ones and the permanent food truck at the nobo Hookset Welcome Center in New Hampshire makes them hot and are very good. Warm and fresh is important. Wegman’s doesn’t cut it…; 10/21/24, 5:12 AM

He is running an ad that says, “Casey bucked Biden to protect fracking and he sided with Trump to end NAFTA and put tariffs on China to stop them from cheating.”

Rusty said...: Obama learned his politics in Chicago where graft is king. He was good friends with all the Chicago political elites. Tony Rezko was an Illinois political fixer. IOW a party bagman. Obama wasn't the only virgin in the whorehouse of Chicago politics. He was up to his neck in it. That's how you get to know people like Rezko.; 10/21/24, 8:16 AM
