If the Republican Party would stop being the stupid party for this election that would be great

Time and again the Republican Party has proved to be its own worst enemy.  Way too often the leadership has snatched defeat from the jaws of victory by behaving rather stupidly, at the worst possible moment.  Examples of this include nominating squishes like Romney and McCain, purging Conervatives from leadership positions, and constantly squabbling with each other.

Just this past week the leadership of the Republican Party executed another of their patented mind numbing blunders.  As happens with astonishing regularity, the Christian satire site Babylon Bee provided very informative and entertaining analysis of the GOP’s latest screw-up: Republican Party Implements Emergency Platform Change After Seeing How Close They Are To Winning Landslide Victory | Babylon Bee

U.S. — With campaigning for November’s elections running at full speed and polls showing GOP candidates building sizeable leads, the Republican Party rushed to implement an emergency platform change after seeing how close they were to winning a landslide victory.

Struggles on the Democratic side of the ticket, including the growing scandal surrounding President Joe Biden’s cognitive ability, led to Republicans gaining tremendous momentum in recent weeks, causing leaders to shift gears and push for changes to the GOP platform in hopes of avoiding any decisive wins in November.

The author of the Babylon Bee article really captures the essence of the Republican Party’s incompetence with some fictitious quotes by the actual chairman of the Republican National Committee Chairman.

“We were just getting way too close to winning big,” said Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Whatley. “Some of these recent polls really got us spooked and concerned that we might actually run away with this thing, so we knew we had to take drastic steps to avoid steamrolling our competition. These changes to our platform should help frustrate, anger, and alienate enough of our loyal voters to make the races a lot closer.”

The updated GOP platform included changes or outright omissions of longstanding Republican stances on abortion and traditional marriage, giving the party the negative reaction it was looking for from lifelong GOP voters. “Thankfully, there’s been some good backlash,” Whatley said. “With any luck, we’ll see our leads start shrinking as we head into the home stretch of these campaigns. We don’t want to do anything that might put us at risk of ensuring total victory.”

It was a sound strategic move when President Trump softened his stance on abortion.  The liberal media was painting him as an extremist on abortion.  That was costing Trump the much needed support of independents.

The abandonment of one of the cornerstones of the Republican Party’s platform is a blunder of epic proportions, especially doing it now that the Republican Party has tremendous momentum..  It is a surrender that will only sow division and acrimony.  As you can see from these headlines, it has already begun in earnest.

I think the only people in the media left whose opinion on Joe Biden should be considered are Cenk Uygur & Bill Maher as they were the only two people willing to acknowledge Joe Biden’s state before June 27 2024.

Given that Joe Biden is the exact same man today as he was on June 26th 2024 when the entire media/left except Maher & Uygur insisted he was fine and dandy and the utilitarian nature of leftist’s like him, can anybody explain to me what is Joe Biden’s incentive to voluntarily surrender either the Democrat Nomination or the presidency?

It hit me today that Joe Biden mental state being what it is might all the lawfare against Conservatives in general (Bannon, Praying Grandmothers etc) and Donald Trump in particular be a function not so much of the Biden Administration/campaign and it’s mentally failing leader but Merrick Garland himself taking personal revenge on those he blames for keeping off of the Supreme Court?

If the left embracing and protecting people who want them dead has only cost the Democrats ten points among Jews, why would anybody think that the revelations about media lies concerning Joe Biden would make a big difference to an electorate whose lives are not at stake?

Finally Boston fans enjoying a young and dynamic RedSox team surging into the final wild card spot and prepare to surge perhaps even higher should not forget this would not have been possible if the now fired Chaim Bloom had listened to all those folks in the media who wanted him to deal away these prospects who are now making their mark.
