We are Fucked

From PPP Polls:

"… Trump voters say they would rather have Jefferson Davis as President than Barack Obama 45/20."

And let's just face an obvious fact here:  Trump voters don't know one God damned thing about Jefferson Davis except that he was for slavery- that he led a four years long murderous, treasonous rampage in order to keep having slaves.  That's it.  These people want black people returned to slavery, period.  I don't want to ever hear a single person claim that this means anything else.  They are for slavery, and for the subjugation of all non-whites, and that is why they are for Trump.

Nazis had and worked to death hundreds of thousands of slaves, but even they did not openly brag about it.  In some way, what these people promise to bring us is worse than the Nazis were.  Deal with that, America.

Do you think some people were confused and thought about Union General Jefferson Davis?

He wasn't that impressive, either.

[Given the intellect of the average Trump voter, they might have confused Thomas Jefferson with Jefferson Davis instead.]

Well, those people know nothing about Davis beyond the fact that he led the treasonous rebellion, so I doubt that a single one of them knows anything about his career before becoming the racist-in-chief.

More likely: "Trump voters don't know one God damned thing about Jefferson Davis except that the other choice is Barack Obama".

Check the link - Confederate President Jefferson Davis and Union General Jefferson Davis were two different people.

History is weird.

I stand by what I said: Most people in the US know nothing about Jefferson Davis except that he was the President of the Confederacy; i.e the number one person in support of slavery. When they support Jefferson Davis, they are supporting slavery.

Who would you rather have as president, Joseph Stalin or George W. Bush?

Sort of depends on what we needed to have done- winning a war or crashing the economy.

I thought of this post, you know about Jefferson Davis as POTUS rather than beloved Barack Obama when I heard about the absolutely worst outrage of the outrage-filled speech of bullshit by the bullshitter-in-chief in Arizona.

I only watched the condensed version of the Arizona/Arpaio rally, but according to one of my right-wing acquaintances, Trump famously proposed that the Civil War might have been unnecessary had Lincoln the diplomatic skills of Andrew Jackson.

Jackson was not the worst white supremacist of the 1830s, but he certainly carried his own weight.

I was so offended that Trump would pander to the idiots who believed that Lincoln might have capitulated to the slavers rather than defend the union. I just can't express my thoughts in words.

Joe Biden was right, as usual, when he stated Republicans "want to put y'all back in chains."

It's Okay, Never Mind

The woman in this picture, equipped with the weapons and ammunition shown, was found outside a National guard base. She is apparently a big Glenn Beck fan, and believed that the base was a FEMA concentration camp. Think she's the only one out there? You just know this sort of thing is not going to end well.

If a Tree Falls In the Woods

 And nobody hears it, is it really running for President at all? First of all, a note about my absence lately:  My wife got me to sign up for an account at Threads, which is sort of like X without the assholes.  I've spent a little time establishing myself there, and I have to say, I do like the relatively immediate exchange of views, but I don't mean to give up my blog- there are still so many things that can't be dealt with in a couple hundred words, so, perhaps to your dismay, I am back. So, what motivated the above question is the fact that the Sunday New York Times today had seven articles about Trump, and absolutely zero about Kamala Harris.   The Republicans have a problem with Harris, in that virtually everyone who sees her likes her and immediately understands how qualified she is to be President.  They have tried mightily the last month to find some way to smear her, but have been spectacularly unsuccessful- the tactics of character assassination ...

Wingnuts Slightly Annoyed about that $83 Million

Image
How can you look like a decrepit old geezer and an out of control two year old at the same time? I thought it might be nice to look in on wingnut world to see how they are taking yesterday's $83 million dollar Trump legal loss.  You kind of know that they will decide it shouldn't affect their opinion of him in any way, but it might be helpful to see just how the Republican party has trained them to reject any fact they don't like.  Not that surprisingly, a lot of the usual wingnut suspects didn't touch this loss at all, preferring to just ignore anything that interferes with their hateful daydreams, but here are a few excerpts from an article at Gateway Pundit, along with a sample of the hundreds of comments it received.  Enjoy.  Or not. "Trump attorney Alina Habba WENT OFF after the crooked New York City court slapped President Trump with an $83 million judgment for speaking out against the disgusting lies of a crazed woman who said he lured her into a Bergdorf Go...
