He Did the Right Thing!

To those of us used to Trump’s* tactics, his rhetoric on the violence in our streets merely reflects his PhD (piled higher and deeper) in Bullshitology.  However, many of those who are politically naive, like far too many American voters, his message appears to be effective.  Therefore Democrats need to be more effective at countering that message.  Otherwise this happens.

0831Polls

Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden maintains his polling lead over President Donald Trump, though the commander in chief gained ground on the former vice president after the party conventions, according to a Morning Consult poll released Saturday. 

According to the poll, Biden leads Trump by six points, polling 50% to Trump’s 44% among likely voters, compared to 52% to 42% before the Republican National Convention, but after the Democratic National Convention.

The poll was conducted Friday, the day after the RNC concluded. The poll showing Biden with a 10-point lead was conducted August 23, after the DNC… [emphasis added]

During and since the RNC, Trump* has focused on the violence in the streets that he has caused by inciting deplorable Republican Sheeple to riot violently.

In Germany in the 1930’s Hitler and the Nazis created the problem of rioting and social unrest. Then they blamed the problem on Jews and leftists. Then they blamed their own extreme violent response against Jews and leftists on the victims. Finally they convinced the public that they and they alone could solve the problem. How is this different from what Trump* and the Republican Reich are trying to do today?  It’s isn’t, and I’m not the only one that thinks so.

Expert compares Trump’s politics to fascism

 

Before today, the Biden campaign has stayed aloof from this, and has let Trump* and the Republican Reich get away with it. That’s why Trump* is gaining ground in the polls. Biden needs to sound more like Portland’s Democratic Mayor, Ted Wheeler, and condemn the violence, condemn all who are committing acts of violence, including left-wing extremists, and condemn the Republican Reich that instigate the violence.

While putting the finishing touches on this article, I am listening to Joe Biden speak.  Thank God he must have read my mind, because he’s saying the things I wanted him to say!

It’s a busy day here in the CatBox.  Store to Door will be delivering groceries in the next three hours, and I have to unpack and put them away.  WWWendy is coming late this evening to destink the stinky TomCat, goop, and help with chores.  Tomorrow is her regular day, but tomorrow she has to go straight from school to her night job bartending at the Elks Lodge.  Then tomorrow she’ll come by in a lunch-hour pit stop to change my pain patch.  The down side is that I’ll be extra stinky when she returns Monday.  If you’re anywhere near Republicane Laura, please take care.

RNC Deplorables Take:

Day three was more of the same show featuring the worship of criminal Fuhrer Trump*.  They created a complete alternate reality, based on 100% lies.

It was a super-spreader event with virtually no masks and no social distancing.

I happened to notice an old Parade recipient, Joni Pig Nuts [R-IA].  She said that Biden would ban fossil fuels and ban farm animals.  Both statements and all her other statements were lies.

The following is a complete analysis of the effect Trump* and the Republican Reich have had on America:

From The New Yorker: An outbreak hit the 2020 Republican National Convention this week as hundreds of attendees tested positive for delusion.

While public-health experts have yet to determine the extent of the outbreak, the episodes of attendees exhibiting magical thinking bordering on the hallucinatory appear to be widespread.

Davis Logsdon, who studies delusional epidemics at the University of Minnesota’s School of Medicine, said that multiple R.N.C. participants professed to see things “that are not actually there,” such as a strong economy, a successful coronavirus response, and an immigration policy brimming with kindness.

In another worrying symptom, Logsdon said that attendees who tested positive were unable to see things that were clearly in their line of vision. “One participant on Monday was shouting for more than six minutes despite the presence of a microphone inches away from her,” he said.

Dang, Andy! There’s no satire here. All the stupid, rabid GOP Sheeple who attended the Nazi Republican super-spreader event are deluded by definition!  RESIST!!

It’s a hot day (high 80°s), here at the CatBox.  Yesterday my visit with Diana was routine.  She’s a very nice lady, who pulls no punches and tells it like it is, but does so with compassion.  Tomorrow is my first Pembrolizumab infusion at the hospital.  I’ll leave after lunch on a TriMet Lift van, and WWWendy will pick me up between 4:30 and 5:00 PM.  When we get home, it will be a regular WWWendy day with TomCat destinking, patch changing, food gooping, and chores.  So I’ll be taking a morning nap to rest as much as I can first.  Therefore, please expect no more than a Personal Update from me.  Assuming that I have no adverse reactions, I’ll be back in the saddle on Thursday.  Tuesday is flush Republicans day.  Lower the lid so none get away.

From Willamette Week: A right-wing “flag wave” event in downtown Portland on Saturday ended with a far-right protester firing two gunshots into a crowd of Black Lives Matter demonstrators.

Seaside, Ore., resident and conservative activist Haley Adams advertised her Aug. 15 “Rally Against Domestic Terrorism” as a “flag wave” and stressed the group’s intent to remain peaceful. About 25 people attended the rally in front of the Multnomah County Justice Center.

This reporter saw several members of the protest arrive with weaponry—they open-carried a Scorpion 9 mm carbine and an AR-15-style semiautomatic rifle. Others held Mace, paintball guns and a 9 mm handgun.

The flag wave rally exchanged chants and taunts for approximately an hour with a group of Black Lives Matter protesters before Adams’ group embarked on a march through downtown Portland. Counterprotesters [sic] followed closely, and there was a small exchange of violence between the two groups: Flag wave protesters were seen Macing BLM protesters and shooting them with paintball rounds and hard plastic pellets. Counterprotesters [sic] returned fire with Mace and Silly String.

At approximately 1:35 pm, about 15 conservative protesters retreated into the SmartPark garage at Southwest 4th Avenue and Yamhill Street. Ten minutes later, three cars sped out of the garage and down 4th Avenue. The driver of one car—a blue Dodge Dart—fired two shots at a crowd of Black Lives Matter protesters as he left but didn’t hit anyone. Some of the BLM protesters recovered a 9 mm casing at the scene of the shooting.

When Republican Ammosexuals say “peaceful”, this is what they mean. RESIST!!

From Washington Post: The city of Tulsa announced a last-minute curfew that began Thursday night and will continue Friday and Saturday, restricting people from a large area surrounding the arena where President Trump will hold his first campaign rally in months.

An executive order signed by Mayor G.T. Bynum (R) says the curfew, which begins at 10 p.m. and lifts at 6 a.m. all three nights, is intended to quell potential overnight violence as thousands intend to pour into the city to protest the president’s visit.

It’s unclear whether the Trump supporters who have camped out for days to secure a prime spot to see the president on Saturday will be cleared out as well, but some videos posted on social media appeared to show people leaving the area carrying tents and lawn chairs .

Bynum declared a “civil emergency” after law enforcement informed the mayor that “individuals from organized groups who have been involved in destructive and violent behavior in other states are planning to travel to the City of Tulsa for purposes of causing unrest in and around the rally,” the order reads.

We need to watch this very carefully. I would be very surprised, if there is no continuation of violent Republican racist false flag terrorist attacks designed to appear as the work of Blank Lives Matter and/or the non-existent Antifa.  RESIST!!

From YouTube (Washington Post Channel): For DACA recipients, a sense of relief after the Supreme Court’s decision


Roberts’ decision was not pro-DACA. It was very technical and narrow, almost inviting the Republican Reich to try again without the sloppy contradictions in motive that prompted this decision. Furthermore, he did not even mention the racist intent that should have protected DACA recipients from criminal Fuhrer Trump’s* order.  Let us hope that trying to steal the 2020 election will keep criminal Fuhrer Trump* too busy to try again.  RESIST!!

From The New Yorker: Vladimir Putin has rejected Donald J. Trump’s request for ten thousand active-duty Russian Army troops to guard the perimeter around the White House, Administration and Kremlin sources have confirmed.

After Trump’s call for U.S. troops was rebuffed by Defense Secretary Mark Esper and General Mark Milley, Trump reportedly snapped, “I’ll call Vlad,” and stormed out of the meeting with the two men.

Much to Trump’s disappointment, however, his request for Russian troops met with a chilly response.

“The optics would be terrible,” Putin reportedly told him. “Worse than that crazy thing you did with the Bible. Really, you need to get a grip.”

Dang, Andy! Poor* widdle criminal Fuhrer Trump! It really hurt his feelings, when his perv-daddy Putin [R-RU] pulled out of Trump’s* pooter and zipped up his fly!  RESIST!!

From Daily Kos: The New York Times’ Editorial Page Editor James Bennet has resigned after the publication of an editorial by Sen. Tom Cotton advocating that the military be deployed to end racial injustice protests throughout the United States. Bennet had been the head of the Times’ editorial pages since 2016.

The Times faced immediate and furious backlash for publishing the op-ed, including from within the Times itself. After repeatedly defending the decision to run Cotton’s anti-American screed, it came out that the Times’ editors had themselves solicited for Cotton to make his case—and that Bennet had not even read the piece before publishing it.

It appears to me that the Times has made James Bennet a scapegoat for following the Times editors’ policy, against his own wishes. They should all be fired. However, Bennet should be fired too, for publishing it without reading it.  RESIST!!

A few days ago cowardly criminal Fuhrer Trump had a case of buk-buk-buk-buk-bone spurs and hid in the White House bunker for fear that they might hurt him.  He had expected to cover it up, but someone leaked it to the press, and before he knew it, people all over the country were laughing at him.  The last times he felt that humiliated is when the existence of the pee-pee tape, became public and when people learned that Stormy spanked him.  He needed to put on a show to appear heroic.

0603Photo-Op

After a weekend of protests that led all the way to his own front yard and forced him to briefly retreat to a bunker beneath the White House, President Trump arrived in the Oval Office on Monday agitated over the television images, annoyed that anyone would think he was hiding and eager for action.

He wanted to send the military into American cities, an idea that provoked a heated, voices-raised fight among his advisers. But by the end of the day, urged on by his daughter Ivanka Trump, he came up with a more personal way of demonstrating toughness — he would march across Lafayette Square to a church damaged by fire the night before.

The only problem: A plan developed earlier in the day to expand the security perimeter around the White House had not been carried out. When Attorney General William P. Barr strode out of the White House gates for a personal inspection early Monday evening, he discovered that protesters were still on the northern edge of the square. For the president to make it to St. John’s Church, they would have to be cleared out. Mr. Barr gave the order to disperse them.

What ensued was a burst of violence unlike any seen in the shadow of the White House in generations. As he prepared for his surprise march to the church, Mr. Trump first went before cameras in the Rose Garden to declare himself “your president of law and order” but also “an ally of all peaceful protesters,” even as peaceful protesters just a block away and clergy members on the church patio were routed by smoke and flash grenades and some form of chemical spray deployed by shield-bearing riot officers and mounted police…  [emphasis added]

Reverend describes being pushed out from church for Trump photo-op

Maiming peaceful protestors demonstrating legally?  Injuring clergy as they ministered to injured demonstrators?  Desecrating’s the church by instigation violence there?  There is only one word sufficiently vile to describe such anti-Christian behavior: Republican.  And guess who made it happen for his Fuhrer?

0603barrfAttorney General William Barr is facing demands to step down after the Washington Post reported Tuesday that the nation’s top law enforcement official personally ordered police to beat back peaceful protesters gathered near the White House Monday evening to clear the path for President Donald Trump’s walk to St. John’s Episcopal Church.

Two anonymous federal law enforcement officials told the Post that “the decision had been made late Sunday or early Monday to extend the perimeter around Lafayette Square by one block.” An unnamed Justice Department official said that Barr on Monday afternoon “went to survey the scene and found the perimeter had not been extended.”

“The attorney general conferred with law enforcement officials on the ground, which the official said is captured in a video of the incident,” the Post reported. “He conferred with them to check on the status and basically said: ‘This needs to be done. Get it done,’ the Justice Department official said.”…  [emphasis added]

That’s right!  It was Barrf!  To make matters worse, Trump never opened his Bible (as if he ever has).  He never prayed.  It was all just a photo-op!  How disgusting!  How vile!
