quote:

When it comes to why he decided to run, the rapper revealed he's never voted, he just registered to vote for the first time on Monday, July 6, and he was "threatened as a Black man into the Democratic party.”

Can anyone take this guy seriously?
A guy whose never voted is running for President?

When some around here were praising him for what he was saying at the time, I told them- the guy is unstable and inauthentic. There's no truth in him because he's incapable of recognizing the truth. He's in it only for his massive ego and for the attention it requires.

The things he says, he makes up as they are coming out if his mouth. Tomorrow, he'll say whatever gets him attention, after what he said today wears off. And on and on and on.

This should come as a surprise to absolutely no one: Thomas Friedman of the NY Slimes has written an article advising Joe Biden to not debate President Trump unless the president releases his tax returns 2016-2018, and that Biden should insist of a fact-checking team to referee any such debate. Otherwise, he's giving Trump an "unfair advantage."

Say what? Of course, that unfair advantage is that Biden is mentally incapacitated. Friedman knows these "demands" are unrealistic and unfair and that Trump would not agree to them. This would only allow Biden to claim the higher ground: "See? See? Trump won't debate." And then return to the seclusion of his basement.

Crazy Uncle Joe today says "Prison shouldn't be punishment" and other crazy things. For instance that the federal government should control local LE. This is the democrat party right down to the local level. They aren't hiding who they are any longer because it isn't hurting them.

Joe Biden said in an interview Wednesday that some funding should “absolutely” be redirected from police, amid calls from some in his party to "defund the police" in the wake of the protests across the country.

Biden's campaign has said he does not support defunding the police. But in a Now This interview with activist Ady Barkan, the presumptive Democratic nominee said that police forces don’t need surplus military equipment, saying this is what leads them to “become the enemy” in a community.

“But do we agree that we can redirect some of the [police] funding?” Barkan asked Biden.

“Yes, absolutely,” said the former vice president.

Biden went on to call for police reforms.

"One of the things that we also need to be doing is fundamentally changing way we deal with our prison system," he said. "It should be a rehabilitation system, not a punishment system. We’re going to make sure you're qualified for every single right you had before you went to prison if you served your time."


In early June, the Biden campaign said that Biden does not believe that police should be defunded.

“As his criminal justice proposal made clear months ago, Vice President Biden does not believe that police should be defunded,” Biden campaign Rapid Response Director Andrew Bates said at the time. “He hears and shares the deep grief and frustration of those calling out for change, and is driven to ensure that justice is done and that we put a stop to this terrible pain.”

Bates added that Biden supports “the urgent need for reform,” which he said includes “funding for public schools, summer programs, and mental health and substance abuse treatment separate from funding for policing — so that officers can focus on the job of policing.”

The Biden campaign has pointed to the former vice president’s criminal justice plan, which proposes an additional $300 million for community policing. Bates said that the funding would “improve relationships between officers and residents” and would “provide the training that is needed to avert tragic, unjustifiable deaths.”

“This funding would also go toward diversifying police departments so that they resemble the communities in which they serve,” Bates added, noting that there is need for “additional funding for body-worn cameras.”

In response to Biden's new comments, Trump 2020 campaign rapid response director Andrew Clark wrote on Twitter it looked like Biden had “changed his position” on defunding police, adding a clip from the Now This interview.


But Biden's campaign denied it signaled a change in his position.

“I'd like to thank Donald Trump - for hiring an illiterate comms staff. Biden is running on *more* COPS funding for community policing,” Bates, Biden’s director of rapid response, shot back. “The same sentiment you're taking out of context RE: local budgets is *in* the articles about him opposing defunding.”


Biden in the interview also said he believes it is the job of the federal government to "go in" and "systemically change what's going on."

He specifically called for banning no-knock warrants and improving police transparency.

"This whole idea of no-knock warrants in drug cases is bizarre, it just invites trouble," Biden said. "There's a fundamental need for transparency and access to police records when they have misconduct charges against them.

I wonder if that includes the right to own a gun?

Things have gotten so bizarre that I seriously question what motivates the GDCs to promote (through Crazy Joe) ideas that would have been unimaginable at one time.

Is it that they feel they have no chance whatsoever of getting that man elected and therefore that they can let him say whatever pops into his delusional and demented mind because it won’t hurt his chances because he has no chance?

Or is it because they’re convinced that the Donald’s chances of reelection are so remote that they can espouse all the radical ideas that they’ve been dreaming about for years and baring them all for the country to see now can’t possibly change what they believe is inevitable? Is it, “Yeah, some of you who are our traditional supporters are appalled by what he’s saying, but 1. you’re not going to vote for anyone else or fail to vote at all, and 2. we want to get all these things on the table so they won’t be a shock and cause any resistance when we’ve won and we start implementing them”?

I'm just spitballin' here, but in their world "The System" is supposed to negotiate everything with them as "representatives of The People". Maybe they just think they're setting up some kind of negotiating position with someone?

I remember that post. True that.

An oversized ego fraud who does something that is supposed to resemble music, and a senile leftist conman and fraud. Wow.

A senile old man being led by the hand by Bernie Sanders

Ordinarily, you'd call it elder abuse for some manipulative character to lead an infirm elderly old man where he might not want to go.

But then there Joe Biden, running for president, unable to recall his own political proposals for running our lives, even with a teleprompter before him, clearly being led by the hand by agile Bernie Sanders minions.

Here's how bad it was, from Bronson Stocking at Townhall:

Appearing virtually at the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers' 2020 Virtual Political Conference on Wednesday, Biden appeared to be reading from a teleprompter when he repeatedly lost his train of thought.

"Lonnie knows I believe this every fiber of being, we're opposed," Biden began confidently enough before he seemingly lost his place with the teleprompter.

Biden then switched to platitudes about making "it happen" and illuminating "the path forward."

"What I propose is, is, it can be done. I think we're in a position to really make it happen. And my team and your team are already working closely together to light up the path forward here," Biden said.

Biden's overworked staff must have queued the teleprompter back up because Biden then appears to return to it, only to lose his train of thought once again.

"Critical laws like the PRO Act to strengthen collective bargaining, on politics like prevailing and," Biden continued, as he held up his hand in a futile effort to follow along. It was no use.

"Look," a defeated Biden said as he gives up on the teleprompter. "I guess, I'm, I'm, I'm taking too much time, but you know ..."

That's a scarily wretched performance, from a man who's expected by pollsters to become the next president of the United States.

He also had problems with pre-written lines, coming out with a "Buy American' policy proposal' in which he couldn't quite say 'American first.'

He doesn't know where he is, what he is talking about, or even how to fake it by just reading the lines. He just drifts off, a victim of what a majority of voters think is creeping dementia, a portrait in bathos, of someone who's utterly unfit for the office of the presidency. Hillary Clinton had a habit of physically collapsing on the campaign trail, but Joe Biden has simply checked out, he's collapsed mentally.

As Peggy Noonan noted awhile back, he's 77, and with people aging at different rates, he's not a 'young' 77.

What's disturbing about the whole thing is who's cleaning up as a result. In a quest to woo back the unenthusiastic Bernie Sanders supporters, Team Biden has effectively turned all of Biden's proposed policies over to hardcore socialist Team Bernie. Biden presents the human face, Bernie presents the socialism - socialism with a human face, get it?

The New York Times has a rundown of what exactly that leading of Biden by the hand really means:

Here are key points from the six areas.

Health care: Expanding government-run plans, without ‘Medicare for all’
Criminal justice: A shift for Biden on private prisons, but not on marijuana
Climate change: New near-term targets, but no fracking ban
The economy: Closing racial gaps and creating jobs programs
Education: Rethinking Obama-era priorities
Immigration: A focus on undoing Trump policies

Which in fact would be the most extremist Democratic platform ever. Huge new medical bureaucracies. Criminals allowed out of jail. Picking and choosing which companies succeed and which companies fail. Woke educational curricula. Open borders - and a big welcome to all the world's remaining Ilhan Omars, looking to make over America in the image of Somalia.

It's a platform to make America's enemies happy, and a certain recipe for bankruptcy, lost freedoms and economic and cultural decline.

And sure enough, it's happening because Biden is so senile, so out of touch, so unknowing of what is happening to him that it's a piece of cake for socialists to take charge. The Bernie-ites are doing it, as multiple news reports state, and Sanders himself, like the cat that swallowed the canary, has declared that Biden "could be the most progressive president since FDR," meaning Hugo Chavez.

It all goes to show that Joe's not there, and his declining mental facilities have made him an easy mark for the most extremist elements in the Democratic Party, their little puppet man, one foot in the grave, mentally checked out a long time ago. One can only hope that the voters will see what a bad picture this is.

Kanye running for president. How's that work- Write in candidate?

Just the ramblings of a self promoting lunatic selling an album.

Maybe, but the ramblings...might convince someone and, on balance, work out in Trump's favor. Let Kanye be Kanye:

quote:

He also suggested that the two presumptive main candidates, "Trump and Biden, gracefully bow out" of the race. "I just gracefully suggest y'all bow out."

While he said he's "taking the red hat off", symbolizing withdrawing support for Trump's campaign, he did say positive things about the president, describing him as "the closest president we've had in years to allowing God to still be part of the conversation," although his administration "looks like one big mess to me. I don't like that I caught wind that he hid in the bunker," he said, referring to reports that Trump hid in a White House safe room during protests last month in Washington, D.C.

He was unsparing in his criticism of Biden. "This man, Joe Biden, said that if you don't vote for me then you are not black. Well, act like we didn't hear that? We act like we didn't hear that man say that? That man said that. It's a wrap."

"I'm not saying Trump's in my way, he may be a part of my way," he said. "And Joe Biden? Like come on man, please. You know? Obama's special. Trump's special. We say Kanye West is special. America needs special people that lead. Bill Clinton? Special. Joe Biden's not special."

Realize TMZ is generally not a credible source, but he's opened up about his bipolar issues in the past so that lends some credence.

KANYE WEST IN MIDST OF SERIOUS BIPOLAR EPISODE ... Family Very Concerned

Poor little Kanye

Kanye can't hurt Trump. If anything, he would pull black voters away from Biden.
Except... that's not really gonna happen either. It's way too late in the game for Kanye to get his name on the ballot.
The most it can do is convince a few people to stay home and not vote.

if megabux & whatever political poltergeists Bloomberg had in his pocket were inadequate to get installed on the ticket, why should we believe this little riff?

Kanye says that he is running in the "Birthday Party", not the democrat or republican party.

"Birthday party"? So much has changed in the past few months...
