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.

Joe, get tested!

I have no idea what caused Joe Biden’s mental mashups during last week’s debate. Take the tests, Joe, and share the results with the voters for your and the country’s good.

I can understand the reluctance to determine if your brain is out of whack and may worsen. The alternative, however, is to see the issues worsen while making critical decisions for the United States and the world.

Recently, I consulted my family doctor about some instances of mental freezes and confusion. He said my condition might be NPH, or is an abnormal cerebrospinal fluid commonly known as water on the brain. The buildup in the brain’s ventricles (cavities)occurs if the normal flow of CSF throughout the brain and thespinal cord is blocked, causing the ventricles to enlarge and putting pressure on the brain.
After an MRI, I started to understand how complicated it may be to find a treatment plan. But what’s worse is not knowing what is causing my mental issues. I can handle overseeing and protecting a stately blue house in central Pennsylvania. What I do and decide will have little or no impact except on my immediate neighbors.

Joe, you’ve got to come to terms with first finding out what’s going on and then determining what, if anything, can be done. You owe it to yourself and the rest of us.

A Reminder to Americans

This should be retweeted every single day till election day and beyond:

That is all.

Has it really only been a week?

If nothing else the last seven days has proved one of my favorite maxims about “Conventional Wisdom” true:

Conventional Wisdom is ALWAYS correct…right up until the moment it isn’t


Donald Trump has pretty much been following the old military maxim to not get in the way when your enemy is falling apart however he did interject himself slightly with a post on Truth social offering to go mano a mano in a 90 minute no moderator live debate anytime any place to give Joe Biden a chance to prove his assertion that’s he fine.

The White House can only ignore this offer as even if it’s held first thing in the morning with a gag tied around Trump’s mouth there is no way Joe “Black Woman” Biden could do this without disaster.

What a difference a week makes eh?


Van Jones is already saying the decision has been made to replace Biden even though:

  1. Biden insists he’s staying
  2. Legally he can’t be made to leave without his own consent or his death

The most effective way to remove the left’s no longer useful idiot Biden other than killing him and pretending it’s old age (at least plausible) or not catching him “in time” at his next fall (again plausible) would be to threaten to allow Merrick Garland to suddenly “discover” proof of all of the deals where the big man got his 10% but that of course conflicts with the new narrative of Biden as a “decent” man (a word I’m not heard to describe him in his 50 year career who has done good service but is now too old to go on.

We will know tonight after his interview with George “The fixer” Stephanopoulos. As the interview is taped we will know what the orders from those actually running the country are by the cut of that interview.

If it shows Biden in the best possible light in terms of lucidity then we know that they’ve decided the poll number demand Biden stay.

If it shows a cut where Biden is sympathetic but unable to function then you know the decision has been made to dump him and it’s just a matter of forcing the matter.

We’ll know tonight


The press is still going all out to try to pretend that they knew absolutely nothing about Joe Biden’s mental decline. At the moment their credibility is as healthy as the UK conservative party who just lost in a landslide to labor thanks to the emergence of the UK Reform party. This has to change if they are to be an effective weapon for the left in a 2nd Trump Term

While they will likely find enough people who want to be fooled to play along we now need a new nickname for the MSM. The obvious choice is the Schultz Brigade as they insist they saw nothing and knew NUTHing about Biden’s mental state

But as that reference even with the Family Guy update is a tad dated I think given their united insistence until 8 days ago that all of the video of Biden demonstrating his mental state were “deepfakes” I think from this point on the Mainstream Media should now be called the #deepshitmedia or if you want to be more polite and less accurate the #deepfakemedia

I’m fine with either choice


Finally if Joe Biden resigns from the president and Kamala Harris becomes POTUS the left will insist on a quick choice for VP as she would be one heartbeat away from America’s 3rd President Johnson.

To me the obvious choice is former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown.

There are several reasons why he would be an excellent pick that checks several important boxes

  1. His pick would not be would not be a threat to any up and coming dem
  2. As an old man at the end of his career a six month stint as VP would not be beyond him
  3. He has name recognition and popularity among the black vote which the Dems need
  4. His record in SF would appeal to the left.
  5. He’s still articulate and would have no issue defending this administration

All solid and practical reasons but most of all it would be payback not only for a lifetime of service to the Democrat party but would be a personal sign of gratitude from the first woman president acknowledging that she would not have risen to the most powerful position in the world without his discovering her and giving her career the most passionate forward thrusts he could.

An important and realistic lesson to all young girls on the easiest way for a woman to get ahead.
