Jen Psaki on the 2028 Dem primary:
"There is no, thank God, dark room in Washington where people sit around and they decide here's who the nominee is going to be."
She just described exactly how the last Democrat presidential nominee was chosen.
key word: ‘widespread’
One would think the Kool-Aide effect would have worn off by now, but it appears to be a lifetime affliction. Winna-Psaki can’t believe her own words, she really can’t, but there they are, rolling right off her tongue.
The party’s nomination rules are no secret, read them and superdelegates can decide their nominee without help from primary voters…
‘There is no, thank God, dark room in Washington where people sit around and they decide here's who the nominee is going to be’ MEANS ‘There IS, thank God, a well lit room in Washington where people sit around and they decide here's who the nominee is going to be.’

He *wants* to leave space for that, but he can't *always* get what he wants.

And the one before that, as you may recall.
Crazy cult eyes on that one.
I need to frame all my headline accomplishments and signs of elite connection and status, and put them behind me as background for my videocalls. Right now I just have a old Martin DM.
Who in their right mind would swallow what Jen just said without question? Ahhhhh, we have our answer....
Ah Lil Jennie Psaki. Spend a few minutes listening to her (as I did years ago) and you can come to an informed judgement that she will never have anything useful to say. Gives you back a few minutes in your life when someone suggests "Listen to Jen" and you say "nope".
You mean like how the Demos picked Kamala to be their nominee?
‘You, the people get to decide’ and then the party gets to say ‘nope’…
And the one before that, as you may recall.
And really Hillary too. It was her turn!
Shades of Henry Ford, "You call have any candidate you want as long as he/she is CFR-approved."

You get to choose. Provided your selected primary candidate isn't forced by Obama and the party bosses to drop out before Super Tuesday, leaving only one major candidate standing.
Jenpsaki’s Song
She’s the devil in disguise
You can see it in her eyes
She’s telling dirty lies
She’s the devil in disguise, in disguise.
Now a woman like Jen all she does is hate you
She doesn’t know what makes a man a man
She’ll talk about her workin’ for 0bama
She’ll speak his name with everyone she can
Unhappiness has been her close companion
Her soul is full of jealousy and rage
She gets her nut when she sees people cryin’
She’s just the kind that’ll make you turn the page

Jen just got off her 2nd job as a landing signal officer. So, cut her some slack. Mike Myers is funny as usual. Sigh...the old SNL.
The counter-example was less than 24 months ago.
BS-Now has the fingers alright.
Psaki-path is the essence of the Obama-to-present Democratic Party in D.C. Psychopath to the bone. Slick liar who's slicker than Slick Willy. Mashup of a rage feminist, zealous partisan, a Deep State enabler, and a member of power team behind the male puppet figureheads (Obama, Biden, Newsom, Walz). Compulsive liar who doesn't know when she's lying.
I truly wonder why women want anything to do with her. I guess they don't, as no normal or healthy women are still in the Democratic Party.
The counter-example was less than 24 months ago.
Yes, and didn't the party bigfoots give Bernie Sanders the bum's rush on Super Tuesday in 2020? And as I recall, things were rather unethically manipulated to take the nomination from Sanders and hand it to Hillary in 2016. Remember when Donna Brazile gave Hillary the debate questions in advance?
Then, let's see, there were plenty of shenanigans against Jesse Jackson in 1988 and 1984, and the granddaddy of all of them, the installation of Hubert Humphrey as the nominee by the smoke-filled back room in 1968, despite the fact that he didn't even campaign in the primaries.
Martin Short did a pointing bit in the synchronized swimming skit 40 years ago. Funny stuff on SNL is recycled stuff. Two recent funny skits were Washington's Dream a reprise of an early sketch, and a mock Ozempic ad that owed a lot to the Happy Fun Ball 40 or 50 years back.
It wasn't just 2024. Biden was the 2020 nominee because those party bigwigs got everyone else to drop out. In 2016 (as in 2020) the big wigs were determined that Bernie Sanders not be the nominee. Hillary Clinton may have had enough girl power to get the nomination on her own. Joe Biden couldn't get there on his own and had to have everyone else swept out of his way.
I have a faint memory of a British comedian or journalist (same thing) wondering what we're calling smoke-filled rooms now that no one can smoke. The answer was "rooms."
Anyone who thinks a presidential primary isn't rigged is delusional.
They are probably still the counting votes from the Iowa Caucus in some dark room somewhere.
The last non-fake Democratic convention was Carter vs. Kennedy in 1980.
The last non-fake Republican convention were perhaps Bush vs. Perot vs. Clinton in 1992 (as Perot drew Republicans away), or Bob Dole vs. Pat Buchanan in 1996 (as Dole was a wooden nothing and as Buchanan foreshadowed Trump by 20 years).
Yet, they were treated as 'important news' until Trump.
“ The last non-fake Democratic convention was Carter vs. Kennedy in 1980.”
Yes, as bad as Cartier was, we dodged a bullet there.
I think the bird-hands and pointy fingers business with Psaki has something to do with Gruesome Newsom and his cocaine hands and shimmy-shake as he bullshits for the cameras, because it is definitely not a natural movement that she has ever done, and she isn't on coke, so I think the word passed that libtard influencers need to start imitating how Governor Scumbag talks. Laying the groundwork so the greasy fraud doesn't come off so weird to the average American.
The intelligence of a podcasting type influencer is inversely proportional to the vociferousness of their jazz hands.
Hacky psaki is a professional liar
This is Jen pisaki's non corporate persona. Basically she's FaceTiming one of her girlfriends.
Hand jive, hand jive, hand jive)
(Doing that crazy hand jive)
Hey-hey
Hey-hey
Turn the sound off and it looks like she's explaining the benefits of all natural vegan makeup and skin care. "I'm soooo excited to be partnering today with Vegyschmeer Cosmetics featuring green algae omega three moisturizer and heritage carrot hair treatments. After application, just luck the excess off your fingers."
That would make more sense
Today's women can be insightful independent thinkers as long as they know that their in-crowd totally agrees with them.
Why do women and simps vote for socialism?
Bird hands.

The last 3.
"There is no, thank God, dark room in Washington where people sit around and they decide here's who the nominee is going to be."
John Podesta would like a word.
For those who don't like links, here's the key quote:
"“We need to be elevating the Pied Piper candidates so that they are leaders of the pack and tell the press to them seriously,” the Clinton campaign concluded.
This document was part of the tens of thousands of emails to and from John Podesta, the chair of Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign, which were released by WikiLeaks."
Election season is BIRD HANDS season.

Sometimes, he just gets what he needs?
It’s always a great day when there’s a Gram reference somewhere.
What Obama wants is power. He may prefer to persuade you to give it to him but he has no qualms about just taking it if you won’t.
What Obama wants is power
…if that’s true it’s because he’s never had any. Looking at his election and Presidency his tenure looks more like he was run with/by/like the Biden cabal. All those people circulating, Rive Tanden, Power, Blinken. What the hell is a policy council, anyways? Compare with the Trump Presidency where there’s no question he’s in charge.
It’s been glorious watching the corrections after the Supremes landmark Louisiana discrimination decision. Correcting all the maps, watching the racists break down, learning this time they’re not going to game the system. Indiana is glorious, putting fear into rinos everywhere. England prolly made some of them wet themselves…
whats great is the maps look like an overlay to the 2024 election by county map
new england needs fixing but other than that kind of what democracy is supposed to look like imo
I'm with @rehajm about Obama. Obama's fatal flaw has always been ego. This started with his pompous start as a college teacher -- he knew all the problems with the world and knew how to fix them from atop the Ivory Tower.
Then, bare knuckles political reality set in and he cracked between the 2008 Republican Convention (Palin's speech) and the world's most uncomfortable staged "Sit down and have a beer" photo-op of 2009.
Finally, he "bowed down" to his Deep State handlers and got into greased-palm sausage-making with the terrible "Affordable Care Act" and its cowardly "deemed passed" non-vote. In for a penny in for a pound, as he shifted to personal enrichment. The Clinton fundraising model and Chicago Machine were part of his essence.
If not for the endemic ego issues of the Democratic Party and his 1/2 black DNA, he'd still be telling students how to save the world without knowing anything. The Deep State activists ran him and ran Biden too.

Has Jen ever circled back to answer the questions she left hanging in 2020-2021 promising reporters facts that “momentarily escaped her”?
if that’s true it’s because [Obama]’s never had any [power]. Looking at his election and Presidency his tenure looks more like he was run with/by/like the Biden cabal.
THIS is what I've been missing about Obama! From the get-go, I've been bewildered about his elevation to national and then international prominence on the basis of - what? What's he ever done, including eight years of a presidency in which he frankly never seemed to do anything that would indicate that he was deciding. He had "advisors" and he never bucked them. (Or, to be fair, it's possible that when he did buck them, the Team carefully hid that fact so that his administration could continue to be seen as a monolithic kumbayah chorus - to mix my metaphors egregiously.)
You know the movie Rock Star? Wherein Mark Wahlberg plays the frontman for a tribute band, and when the frontman of the original band gets fired by his bandmates (OMG, autocorrect made that word "bandmasters," a word I've never heard that is exactly my point), is tapped to become the new "real" "leader" of the band? And he thinks he's actually a member of the band with a say in anything at all, and the bandmasters (I'm going with it now) finally have to tell him that he's just a nobody who looked and sounded right, and he'd better stay in his lane or they'll go find another tribute band singer who's going to cooperate? And he quits to go make his way as a solo singer-songwriter in what appears to be post-grunge Seattle, because he has "artistic integrity"?
Apparently Obama doesn't have "artistic integrity." He seems smart enough to recognize, lo these many years later, that his transformational importance was curated - but he likes the result, so he goes along with the gag.
Go find A Baldwin and K Wiig riding in car. Funniest SNL skit ever.
