"Like a gravid necromancer reading from an ancient grimoire bound in human skin, he summoned dark and terrible eldritch forces from the vast and terrible deep." What a fun read, as well as being right.

Why I love your Substack series: you always show me a fresh view, drive me to the dictionary at least one (in this case, three times) and occasionally, surprisingly, move me to tears. Thank you.

I especially love how Putin shivved him with the prisoner swap. To use the parlance of Quadrophenia, the punk met the Godfather.

Why has everyone just memory-holed the fact Trumps initial primary campaign was fueled by his initial message that ‘all these other politicians can be bought, but I’m rich and don’t need donations and all be funding my own campaign’ he used this line repeatedly to hammer Jeb and the others but then went on to run the most lucrative 8 year grift in history

Why isn’t he asked everyday what happened to self funding

Nothing new here. This is classic Donald Trump showing us who he has always been.

Trump was in his classic abuser DARVO mode: Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender.

He heard his own rude words spoken back to him, then accused the woman who quoted them of being the rude one, then claimed to be a victim because the event started late, a technical issue she had nothing to do with.

Trump was in his classic racist mode: Denying VP Kamala Harris's identity as a Black woman, claiming she "switched" her identity from Indian to Black when she has always proudly claimed the heritage of both of her parents.

Trump was in his classic misogynistic mode: Claiming he wasn't certain if VP Harris passed the bar exam, implying that a woman could have served as a prosecuting attorney and a state Attorney General without having first met the basic qualifications of earning a law degree and passing the state bar exam.

Trump was in his classic delusional mode: Challenging VP Harris to a cognitive health exam and questioning her ability to pass the California bar exam when he daily shows signs of cognitive decline and has a history of paying others to take college entrance exams for him.

This is the best version of Donald Trump we're ever going to get from now on. His cognitive decline will only increase daily as will his sense of grievance and entitlement.

Kamala Harris for President!

The whole point here, is Kamala Harris is a professional, with the resume to prove it. Many men can't tolerate being upstaged by a smart, vivacious and confident woman. She has what it takes to upstage most any man, and she is doing it with poise, class, and dignity - and she's got the majority of the nation's women behind her. It's well past time for America to have a woman of her credentials: a prosecutor, an attorney general, a vice president who understands the issues, has command of the law, and knows how to get things done.

One of the interesting side-notes of the Paris 2024 Olympics opening ceremony controversy (just look it up…if you dare) that I came across in the discussions is that it’s well-documented that Sally Hemings accompanied Thomas Jefferson on one (at least) of his diplomatic trips to Paris. Given a chance, wouldn’t it be great for an intrepid journalist (um, how about ABC News’ Rachel Scott?) to ask JD Vance this question:

“Sally Hemings bore six children* by Thomas Jefferson. Would you call Hemings a ‘DEI hire’? Please explain.”

Same old tired, dog & pony show from ole yam teats...yeah, but now the dog in the show is old, has missing teeth and scratches his mangey hair, the pony is blind & limping along on old arthritic legs while the cart the pony slowly pulls has janky wheels with its paint starting to peel off. Truly a relic of his carnival past...indeed...pitiful.

While 'we ain't going back' Kamala, lookin' the part is zoomin' 'round cackling in her brand-new silver, red/ white/and blue U.S Flag themed Ferrari whip...blastin & bumpin' Meagan Thee Stallion hip hop trap dirty rap on her blast box, baby...un, huh! Tellin' her peeps... whazz' up...while spittin 'tell it to my face'...to TFG!

How, once the electorate said they liked neither candidate, did the Trump side think they would dislike him any less if he stood alone, ever.

Completely off topic. At the end of The Godfather as Pacino is at the altar becoming Godfather a number of his rivals are murdered. Is it just me or did anyone else think about Netanyahu standing at the alter of Democracy, the podium addressing Congress and soon thereafter someone gets whacked in Beirut, another in Tehran and a third taken out by bombing his house.

No, because these are Islamist terrorists dedicated to the destruction of Israel and the eradication (genocide) of Israeli Jews. Can't really be analogized to run of the mill mob rivals.

You can't paint Hamas and Hezbollah as legitimate protest groups.

Joe Biden’s exit from the race lifted a burden from those of us who wanted to support him to the end. It also gave this nation a candidate who can easily kick Trump’s ass on November 6.

Watching this energetic & brilliant woman step into the breach brought Hope. Her Vice-Presidential experience has broadened her already-impressive range. Freed to pursue her own policies, she is precisely who we need right now.

Crazy Racist Grandpa can return to the golf course full time.

And because it is all about me, I will live to see the First Woman President of the United States.
