BaronChocula's JournalSenator McCaskill just echoed what I've been saying is the gop MO for years
That's the point of Fox News et al., to manufacture outrage that white people will easily buy into. It's been that way since at least since the Nixon days when Roger Ailes brought up the idea of a Republican television network.
What White Dudes for Kamala Harris Means
There is a two-word term that begins with the letter N that has been used historically by white racial terrorists, men in particular, to describe a caucasian who was not doing their part to promote white supremacy. While that term has largely died out, the cause of white bigots scaring other whites into remaining in line culturally has not. In the decade following the signing of the Voting Rights and Civil Rights acts the republicans became the party of opposition to the expansion of rights. Most white men, many bringing along their spouses aligned themselves with the republican party even though they preferred most of what the Democratic party still offered. They wanted consumer protection. They wanted affordable health care. They wanted protection from predatory lenders. But most important was their ill-placed priority not to seem out of step with the pro-white establishment.
White Dudes for Kamala Harris represents a watershed. Not since the Jim Crow era have white men so blatantly identified themselves as a voting demographic and this time it is for the cause of (among many other things) expanding rights. There was no evidence of the watershed before July 21 when President Biden announced he was dropping out of the race. But on that day things changed. For one, a black woman who was largely viewed with skepticism according to polls electrified the electorate and put stains in the pants of the maga establishment. Now there are white men who clearly identify themselves as white men backing a black woman for a leadership role.
What this means for Americas pro-white establishment is that the spell is off. The neo-confederates are losing their grip. Their small-minded name-calling and threats dont have the same impact. And as for the White Dudes, they arent trying to mitigate any potential backlash from other white men by taking an anemic position such as its both sides. Theyre all in on the black lady.
There have been a few severe blows to the pro-white establishment since the Civil War and this is yet another one. The pro-white establishment is vehemently anti-equality. When white men side with a pro-equality black woman the pro-white establishment has lost. For years their MO has been convincing just enough white people that too much equality is an infringement on the American (white) way of life. The White Dudes arent buying it anymore. I give them boocoo credit!
Don't fall for the "end of the Harris sugar high" talk
It may happen and it may not. What we know IS happening is that team rapist is repeating this as an inevitability and in turn, certain news outlets are echoing that. The MO of team rapist is to dispirit by predicting failure. It will only work if we repeat what is actually their wishful thinking.
Recall the 2008 campaign of Barack Obama which went from late February 2007 to November 2008. The enthusiasm he generated carried him through the election. With less than 100 days to go, it can happen here.
The White Dudes for Kamala Harris was just last night. That doesn't sound like the end of the honeymoon to me.
Still, the condescension regarding the vice president
Yes, perhaps it's my fault for turning on MSNBC, but I do enjoy parsing biased messages and they give ample opportunity for that.
On Friday I believe Ari (I know many can't stand him) had on Carville (I know many can't stand him either). Carville who had been vocal about concerns of Biden's age was now vocal over concerns about the excitement over VPOTUS' de facto nomination. Instead of reflecting on the excitement as a positive, he suggested that the campaign was so drunk on joy that they would be unprepared for vicious Republican attacks to come. "Duh icepicks ahh comin'" he said as if VP Harris who has been called a DEI hire since long before we knew the rapist crapped his pants with regularity, is completely unaware of how the party of white nationalists work.
Of course, how would Carville know how the campaign and the party are preparing as he just sits in front of his computer waiting for a spot on Ari. I was quite disappointed. I know there must have been a time when Carville knew that excitement around a campaign was literally money in the bank, but that Carville is gone apparently. He complained about Biden dragging down the party's chances and now he's complaining about excitement over the new nominee. I thought perhaps he's selectively remembering how the Harris campaign went in 2019, but this ain't 2019 and she now has the entire party operation behind her. Not to mention her capacity for growth. There's still time for Carville to get on board. Not holding my breath.
Then on Saturday MSNBC did a cute little report on what this black woman needs to do to get the acceptance of white republicans who won't vote for Trump (my framing of the segment). There were comments from nerver-trumpers like "one thing I don't like about her is I don't know anything about her." WTF? Another commenter said "if she chose a running mate like Liz Cheney I'd support her." WTF? Never gonna happen.
That was the "cross-section" of never-trumpers they spoke with. They didn't talk to any republicans who have already committed to voting for the Democrat in this cycle of which there are definitely enough to find for comment. I wanted to puke. It was a segment that seemed to have no purpose than to drag VPOTUS.
As I explained at the top, I enjoy parsing lousy coverage that's tainted with hidden bias. I'll be back watching tomorrow I'm sure.
Team Rapist is gambling on that "defund the police" BS now
And they'll regret it.
I heard a rapist prattle on about liberal radical this and San Francisco that at a rally somewhere in Superbigotstan, USA where he included some of that worn out defund the police crap. All we need is a quick look back at a few headlines to see who actually defunded the police in 2021.

We know magas only do what the rapist tells them. And in a speech this connection can lead directly to how the rapist told magas to oppose the bipartisan immigration bill because it wouldn't be good for him. He's not concerned about crime, he's not concerned about immigration, he's only concerned about himself.
I'm dying to see team rapist be kept on the defensive.
To further credit President Biden's accumen
This speedy attraction of support among Democratic pols has been so seemingly seamless (so far) that one suspects they've been working on this contingency for some time. I could be wrong, but I had the nightmare scenario in mind where finding a candidate with as-close-to across the board approval in a timely fashion was beyond possible. I was in a shitty-ass mood yesterday, but I feel so much better today. Credit to President Biden and Vice President Harris.
Here's what I'm going to tell people from now on
when they tell me the Most Successful Peacetime President is "too old."
Saying the Most Successful Peacetime President is too old is like saying he's too white, or he's too Catholic, or he's too rich, or he's too poor.
#MSPP
I consider myself lucky to be alive under the Most Successful Peacetime President. I would have never imagined who the Most Successful Peacetime President would be back in the days when he was merely a Senate Judiciary chair leading confirmation hearings on controversial SCOTUS nominees. I would never imagined who the Most Successful Peacetime President would be when he first ran for president in 1988. I would have never imagined who the Most Successful Peacetime President would be when he was elected vice president. I thought the Most Successful Peacetime President would have retired from politics following his role as arguable one of the Most Successful Vice Presidents in our country's history. When his term of vice president was followed by the worst president in American history, the Most Successful Peacetime President re-entered politics and defeated the worst president in American history.
Now the Most Successful Peacetime President is pitted in an election against the worst president in American history. Ordinarily we would just be faced with that decision between two men of totally divergent calibers, but now a contingent of "allies" of the Most Successful Peacetime President are requesting the Most Successful Peacetime President to exit the race for fear that he can't defeat the worst president in American history. Abetting this coup against the Most Successful Peacetime President is the news media that has given up on covering just what made the worst president in American history the worst president in American history, instead relentlessly focusing on the coup to remove the Most Successful Peacetime President who has rightfully won the nomination of his party.
I stand behind the Most Successful Peacetime President for several reasons. First average approval ratings for presidents have been trending down since the last century so approval is not an indicator of an incumbent's chances. Second, Democrats and Democratic policies have been outperforming polls since 2018. Third, incumbents are usually down in polls before elections. So this move to push the Most Successful Peacetime President off the ticket is being committed by people who should know better. Their disloyalty is far more damaging to the the Most Successful Peacetime President than any poll. And if the Most Successful Peacetime President loses this next election to the worst president in American history, we'll have that cadre to thank.
Just as I fell lucky to be alive under the Most Successful Peacetime President, I'm nervous over what will happen now that people I've respected are throwing the Most Successful Peacetime President under the bus.
In case you doubt this is a coordinated hit job against Joe Biden
Both candidates running for president in 2024 have big negatives. The "news" media is only focusing on those of Joe Biden. We know that both Republican and independent voters said they would not vote for the rapist if he were convicted and in June he was. Check out this Politico article.

There is no one that I have seen who has followed up on ANY of the segments of independents and republicans who want the rapist out of the race. The heap on Joe Biden is intentional media malpractice. I know others here have made allegations which go way too deep for my pay level, but the pass being given to an utter psychopath is an indication that our mainstream media is part of the pro-white establishment.
Dear Lester Holt,
Asking what President Biden is doing to bring down the temperature on the rhetoric is classic both-sidesing you hack. It presumes that POTUS has done anything to raise the temperature and he hasn't and you couldn't come up with any examples yourself. Maybe you need a cognitive test.
Love,
Me
