Obama... disgusts me. The production quality of this speech was very high, which makes the content even more despicable.

Obama’s DNC speech was vicious, dishonest, and mostly about Obama
By Andrea Widburg

Michelle Obama famously said, “When they go low, we go high.” She should have reminded her husband before he gave his speech for the online Democrat convention.

Standing in a room in Philadelphia, with the words “Writing the Constitution” over his right shoulder, Obama gave a speech that almost wholly ignored Biden, whom he’d ostensibly come to praise. Instead, Obama viciously attacked Trump and did a constitutional rewrite that allowed him to cast Trump as a constitutional threat.

From the start, Obama was up to his old tricks. Even while he wanted to use the Constitution to challenge Trump, he couldn’t praise it. Instead, he opened by describing it as an imperfect document that “allowed for the inhumanity of slavery and failed to guarantee women — and even men who didn’t own property — the right to participate in the political process.”

Democrats aren’t progressive; they’re regressive. They draw power by telling the public that Democrats are the only thing standing between Americans and the Constitution as ratified in 1791 as if nothing has changed since then.

Still, Obama conceded that the Constitution has some virtue. That’s why, said President Obama, who once boasted that “I’ve got a pen, and I’ve got a phone,” was shocked that Trump has never shown “some interest in taking the job seriously, that he might come to feel the weight of the office and discover some reverence for the democracy that had been placed in his care.”

Obama continued, saying that Trump has

shown no interest in putting in the work; no interest in finding common ground; no interest in using the awesome power of his office to help anyone but himself and his friends; no interest in treating the presidency as anything but one more reality show that he can use to get the attention he craves.

Without irony, Obama was describing himself. He was a famously lazy president, compared to the Trump dynamo, he massively enriched those close to him (especially Biden), and he used the presidency as a chance to rock with rappers and take exotic trips.

Obama naturally blamed Trump for Wuhan virus deaths and unemployment. It’s as if it never happened that Democrat governors’ destroyed their economies with lockdowns and turned old age homes and care facilities into slaughterhouses.

Having insulted Trump, Obama gave a trite and short homage to Biden. He touched upon Biden’s dead wife and children; Biden’s habit of treating people with respect and dignity (“You’re a lyin’ dog-faced pony soldier,” “You’re full of s**t,” “You’re a damn liar”); and his decency (Biden enriched Hunter very decently). Obama even said that Biden made Obama a better president.

Having damned Biden with faint praise, Obama next praised his own policies, and occasionally threw Biden’s name into the mix when he did so.

Thus, Obama boasted about how he and Joe saved America from Ebola, a disease that never left West Africa, and from H1N1, a disease that sickened 60 million Americans but that Obama ignored for half a year.

Obama extolled Obamacare, which passed thanks to lies so big even leftists called him out. Tens of millions of Americans then lost their insurance.

Obama praised the work he did to end the recession, something that was the slowest, grimmest recovery in American history. It was Trump who put the economy on steroids by lowering taxes, cutting regulations, rewriting trade agreements, and weakening China’s hold on the economy.

Obama gloated about how he and Joe restored America’s standing in the world by standing with “democracy, not dictators.” Those not-dictators included Raúl Castro, Recep Erdoğan, the Muslim Brotherhood, China, and Putin (until Putin was turned into a weapon against Trump). And, of course, we cannot forget the Iranian mullahs whom Obama supported during the Green Revolution and to whom Obama sent billions in cash and a license to produce nuclear bombs.

Having self-praised, Obama contended that Trump was destroying democracy by using “the men and women of our military . . . as political props” deployed against those famous “peaceful protesters.” There’s a lot to unpack there. First, Obama left the military in the weakest condition it’s been since before WWII, as well as using it as a grand social justice experiment.

Second, was Obama referring to the peaceful protesters who destroyed 1,500 buildings in Minneapolis/St. Paul? The ones who, in Portland, beat random people, almost killed a man, and who’ve spent 83 days battling law enforcement there? Or maybe he’s talking about CHAZ/CHOP? Who knows? Obama doesn’t. He’s just stirring the pot.

There was more, but it was boilerplate social democrat pap of the type you’ve heard repeatedly.

Thankfully, Trump is . . . well, Trump, and he tweeted out a vigorous, real-time opposition to Obama’s unscrupulous speech:


Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump
HE SPIED ON MY CAMPAIGN, AND GOT CAUGHT!

Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump
WHY DID HE REFUSE TO ENDORSE SLOW JOE UNTIL IT WAS ALL OVER, AND EVEN THEN WAS VERY LATE? WHY DID HE TRY TO GET HIM NOT TO RUN?

All in all, Obama’s was both a singularly despicable statement from a former president and a disgraceful example of projection as Obama imputed to President Trump all the sins Obama himself committed during his presidency.

The thing about Kaptain Kenya is that he has a looong history of having the opposite of the Midas Touch when it comes to campaigning for his fellow commies. He opens his fucking mouth and it turns into shit results. I'm delighted whenever he sticks up for Democrat candidates.

Obama would know all about being lazy. That MF was well known for never starting his day at the Oval Office before 10 am.

If truth serum was applied to the DNC, they'd say:

“Now I will tell you the answer to my question. It is this. The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power, pure power. What pure power means you will understand presently. We are different from the oligarchies of the past in that we know what we are doing. All the others, even those who resembled ourselves, were cowards and hypocrites. The German Nazis and the Russian Communists came very close to us in their methods, but they never had the courage to recognize their own motives. They pretended, perhaps they even believed, that they had seized power unwillingly and for a limited time, and that just around the corner there lay a paradise where human beings would be free and equal. We are not like that. We know that no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it. Power is not a means; it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power. Now you begin to understand me.”

Trump Hits Joe And Hunter's China Malarkey In New Campaign Ad

The Trump reelection campaign is out with a new ad attacking Joe and Hunter Biden's close ties to China.

The two-minute ad spotlights Joe Biden's cozy relationship with Chinese President Xi, interspersed with clips of destitute Americans whose jobs were outsourced during the Obama-Biden years.

It then puts Hunter's China profiteering on blast - including footage of both Bidens denying they've ever spoken of his lucrative dealings, such as a trip he took to China to establish a joint investment fund with a Chinese bank.

^^^^Just that clip of Crazy Nancy saying the ChiComs would prefer Biden ought to be included in every Trump ad.

^^ Good ad. These types of things are like a punch in the gut and are going to hit home hard with the silent majority and many moderates too.

One would expect DJT has a whole pile of similar ads that will be rolling out closer to Nov.

Going back to the silent majority, there was Cato survey last month reporting that 77% of conservatives 'self censor' (ie. not express their political views). That should be a big red flag to anyone talking about DJT campaign being 'behind in the polls.' Cancel Culture has managed to quiet/silence 3/4+ of a segment of society. Unfortunately for the left, in the privacy of their homes or at the voting booth, conservatives can (and will) still quietly vote any way they chose.

If I missed this in this or another thread please advise and I will delete.
Seems there's a conflicting story about Joe and Jill meeting on a blind date. It probably doesn't matter to anyone but just another indicator of the character of the people the dems are offering for the office of the President.

American Samoa delivers its delegate votes at the #DNCConvention with what appears to be two uniformed service members in the background, which is potentially a problem.

The Pentagon confirms that the incident is being investigated. The two soldiers are being described as “junior enlisted soldiers”, maybe to downplay the violation of the rules.

‘The Army is investigating two Soldiers from the 9th Mission Support Command who appeared in uniform during the Democratic National Convention on Aug.18,” said an Army statement. “Wearing a uniform to a partisan political event like this is prohibited.”

“The Army follows the Department of Defense’s longstanding and well-defined policy regarding political campaigns and elections to avoid the perception of DoD sponsorship, approval or endorsement of any political candidate, campaign or cause,” it continued.

All American military personnel, active duty members and reservists are instructed to remain apolitical during political campaigns.

Well, if he can't serve as a good example, then he'll have to serve as a terrible warning. They'll never criticize him directly, but over the coming years (especially after a couple of bad losses) you'll find Dem "operatives" and "experts" quietly warning talk show hosts against "making mistakes they've made in the past". They'll blame racism, they'll blame desperate clingers, hell, they'll blame the phase of the moon - but the message will be the same: don't do as O did.

They won't address this, but if they did, they'd blame it on a "technical glitch".

I mean absolutely no disrespect to our First Lady Melania Trump, but I think Biden's new slogan should be "Be Best Build Back Better."

that might be just the thing for him to unleash tonight when he accepts the nomination.

it might give this farce some pizzazz

OK, this too funny. What was the impact of Obama's speech? Well, apparently it wasn't immediately obvious (or, perhaps, even apparent), but it was a dark warning about the death of democracy even though it was so subtle that no one noticed. So what was the big impact of the speech? As one "writer and analyst" put it, "I feel validated in the sense of existential dread that I've felt for four years."

Helpful hint, folks - when you start reading things into what other people say AND they just feed your darkest paranoid fantasies, that's a glaring indicator that you're spending faaaaar too much time in the echo chamber of your party's extremists and the bullshit they spew. Go get some fresh air - not the NPR program, but some actual IRL oxygen.

OK...this might be humorous, but it damn sure is scarily close to the truth...
