Don’t laugh. UD had the same thought.

Fight Fight Fight is his post-assassination-attempt battle cry, but he won’t debate his opponent, and he didn’t mind all of us seeing how petulantly he refused.

I’m seeing a pilot entering a death spiral, and instead of relying on his instruments (ie his advisors) he’s going by the seat of his pants.

Trump’s pant seats have served him well, so I get it, but age is kind to no one, and his rear’s gone saggy. Fond foolish old man, he listened to his son on the vp pick and now he’s picking cat hair out of his rear. He thinks insulting women and black people will give us all a pleasant buzz, and instead grating alarms are emanating from 538.

He always knew he was bogus as hell, but huge numbers of Americans didn’t.

UD has no doubt his staff is telling him how to keep the con aloft, but his pants are telling him something else.

Nothing easier than conjuring a life-threatening illness and stepping aside to see what the cat lady guy can do.

And only if he can wear one of these.

And only if …..

‘[M]ocking Trump’s tendency to … post in all caps, former Barack Obama speechwriter David Litt [wrote]:

“I HAVE AGREED TO A SWIM MEET WITH KATIE LEDECKY SO LONG AS SHE WEARS A FULL SUIT OF ARMOR AND HOLDS HER BREATH THE WHOLE TIME ALSO I GET A JET SKI.”‘

“I will have such revenges on you,

That all the world shall—I will do such things—

What they are, yet I know not: but they shall be

The terrors of the earth!”

Wittle King Lear prepares us for his next rally.

 I’ve been sort of involved with some of the recruitment efforts and interviewing of some of the potential candidates. Last year, we had five potential candidates, and … all five decided to go elsewhere. Idaho used to be a state that attracted OBs for the outdoors, for the family values, the recreation — it’s a good place to live. But I think the overturn of Roe v. Wade had an impact…

What I heard from others was that those who were interviewed in the last year expressed concerns regarding the legal climate and concerns of prosecution, which led them to not take our offer of employment. 

A doctor at Idaho’s third shuttered obstetrics unit talks about why the total abortion ban is also becoming a total birth ban.

… — the idiots almost legalized female genital mutilation — The Lancet runs an editorial which will really annoy Alan Dershowitz and other FGM enthusiasts.

Elimination of FGM has primarily focused on the role of traditional cutters—community elders with no medical training. What has been largely ignored in FGM elimination campaigns is the increasing role played by trained medical professionals. An estimated 52 million girls and women have been subjected to FGM at the hands of health-care workers—one in four cases. This medicalisation is gaining traction. Sudan, Egypt, and Indonesia have some of the highest percentages of medicalised FGM. The involvement of health-care workers not only promotes the false belief that FGM is safe, but also normalises and thereby perpetuates the practice, hindering elimination.

So ladies, take your pick: Filthy slashers, or killer docs.

Just as the “Killing Fields” leader of Cambodia went from an innocent lad on his father’s farm to a vicious degenerate under the influence of university intellectuals in Paris, so vp-designate Vance traveled as an innocent from Y’all Land to Yale, where intellectuals corrupted him with ideas like the therapeutic society.

Senator JD Vance of Ohio, the Republican vice-presidential nominee, is drawing renewed scrutiny over his past remarks that the American gymnast Simone Biles, who won another Olympic all-around gold medal on Thursday, showed weakness when she withdrew from the previous Games because of a mental health issue.

Mr. Vance, during an appearance on Fox News in 2021, questioned why Ms. Biles was receiving acclaim for stepping away from the competition at the Tokyo games.

“I think it reflects pretty poorly on our sort of therapeutic society that we try to praise people, not for moments of strength, not for moments of heroism, but for their weakest moments,” Mr. Vance, who was running for the Senate, said at the time.

Go back to the Fox transcript and note that Vance – chillingly – called Simone Biles commie Simone Weil; and toward the end of the interview he even called her Simone Veil. You can take the boy out of Bumpkin, but once an intellectual, always an intellectual.

What the Trump campaign doesn’t want you to see!

Young, bearded, black turtlenecked, cafe intellectual JD poses for intellectual book cover while in intense debate with female intellectuals.

“I love my black job,” [Simone] Biles wrote on X Friday… It’s an apparent dig at Trump’s controversial comments earlier this week, telling a roomful of Black journalists that immigrants are taking “Black jobs.”

I think that makes Vance Eva Braun.

During a Wednesday appearance on CNN, [Omarosa] Newman recalled that Trump identified as Swedish in his bestseller, The Art of the Deal, despite being of German and Scottish ancestry. Newman said that Trump didn’t want to acknowledge his roots because he thought being Swedish “would play better to those who were patronizing his businesses.”… Trump would identify as Swedish, German and Irish “whenever it’s convenient,” Newman said.

JD Vance — hump-mad, childed, wannabe vice president — addresses the nation on the cautionary tale of Mel Tucker, once one of America’s most highly paid coaches (around one hundred mill for a few years work) who, simply because he masturbated rather than coitused, was thrown out of his coaching job, and now has to sue MSU for hundreds of millions of dollars to get some of that loot back!

“My fellow uni-ethnic Americans: Mel Tucker had a choice. He could insert himself procreationally into his wife and increase his low yield of only two children so far. Or he could nonprocreationally pleasure himself while having phone sex with a woman not his wife. Because he took the ungodly path, Tucker lost everything, and America [weeping] lost a child.”

A Republican Senator comments: “We’re getting spun up about cats and children. And now how somebody looks,” she said. “Does it make any difference how much Polish ancestry versus Irish versus whatever else it is that I have in me? Why are we talking about this?”

Childed hump-mad vp candidate JD Vance immediately called anyone not on board with Trump’s one-ethnicity idea “hysterical,” thus extending his psychopathologizing of a vast range of American citizens, millions of whom he identifies as “sociopaths” because they don’t do babies as enthusiastically as his own missus. Vance’s running mate uses more everyday, less sophisticated, terminology relating to mental illness for the majority of Americans, calling virtually everyone he encounters psycho crazy lunatic nuts wacko etc all the livelong day. As Kamala Harris says, it’s “the same old show,” and even Joe Rogan, who predicts a Harris victory, acknowledges it’s getting really, really stale.

“They just want no Trump, no matter what.”

***********************

Trump tries to figure out ethnicities.

***********************

So in the course of less than 40 minutes, Trump reminded people of his promise to pardon the mob that assaulted police officers during the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol, threw his own VP candidate under the bus, insulted and attacked a room full of Black journalists to their faces, and said that Kamala Harris is not Black.

Nice summary.

As if we needed a headline in Live Science – in this political season – to tell us that.

Asked what [Trump] meant when he once said immigrants were taking “Black jobs,” he said: “A Black job is anybody who has a job.”

Sorry, but when you’re a literature type, you sorta live for tweets like this, about Trump being interviewed in front of a group of black journalists today.

“This NABJ interview is a great example of why the people who demand that we de-platform Trump are wrong. People should see this!” former Republican political consultant Tim Miller tweeted. “A grumpy, cruel, hard-of-hearing, race-baiting, asshole having to actually answer for his track record in an environment outside of his comfort zone.”

Amendment 4 … enshrine[s] the right to abortion in the Florida Constitution.

WUH OH!!!!!

Mamma mia. Even Trump-mad Floridians aren’t on board the whole no contraception no IVF no abortion get a whole shitload of knocked up to carry out your uterine duty AND safeguard THE DEMOGRAPHIC FUTURE OF THIS COUNTRY thing. Childed VP candidate Vance will drag his wife and kids down to Tallahassee early next week to announce she’s preggers again – with triplets! – and then she’ll take the stage and announce she’s abandoning her legal career which has been frying her fallopian tubes.
