Yeah, let's not do fascism cuz Biden had a cold [1] ['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.'] Date: 2024-06-28 I didn't watch the debate last night; I was too busy slathering bucketloads of steroid cream on an itchy, welt-like rash from hell after stopping my RA meds before surgery and being miserable. I am feeling a bit better today by half, but I am compelled to weigh in on the Presidential debate because —what? Apparently, Biden acted like an old man. Not demented. Not insane. Not racist. Not sexist. Not like a criminal or a rapist. Not a domestic terrorist. He acted like what he was—an Elder stateman with an apparent cold. Still gotta love The New York Times’s take on the highly anticipated Presidential debate—read here if you want to punch your fist through a wall: Even Ultra Liberal Rawstory weighed in with headlines like this: Meanwhile, Trump, all told by onlookers, not the MSM, of course, behaved like the raving lunatic that he is, and yet the running narrative today is GET RID OF BIDEN. Because, of course, it is. I got two words for all ya’ll: Project 2025! No, Project 2025 won't be good for poor White dudes, either; their angst is being used to propel the nefarious plans of conservatives. The only people who will benefit from the Republican plan for America are already rich dudes and billionaires. Period. If you haven’t heard about Project 2025, please, for the love of all that is holy, Google it—the details will make your hair stand up on end. Republicans don't want to stop at wresting Gilead straight outta Atwood’s The Handmaiden’s Tale—they are using Orwell’s 1984 as an instruction manual to set up a theocratic serfdom—in America. America, folks! Republicans now say the Great American Experiment didn't quite work out because all the women folk and darkies got a bit too uppity with all that talk about liberty, equality, and free will. All those things were just for pale-skinned brotha’s. Now, they gotta reset things back to normal. As a result, they plan to take everything back and insert God in all kinds of crevices and spaces—including schools and a woman’s uterus. Praise be to Cheeto! But, yeah, let's all get on with freaking out about Biden having a cold and not feeling well, as if only old people get sore throats or have an off day and shit. Oh my gawd, humanity—why? I can’t with the world sometimes. Libbie hot takes say it all! Below are a few of my favorite takes from the debate's outcome. They were pithy and brilliant because it would appear a good portion of clever folk tend to lean left and have shit like compassion and care for others guiding them… Noteworthy takes: It’s maddening that if Joe Biden messes up just one fact, the press will write him off as hopelessly demented — but as long as Donald Trump manages not to take out his dick and wave it around on live TV, the press will give him a pass — Jeff Tiedrich Yuh, what they said. At the end of the day, I am not voting for people who think slavery was some kind of beneficial jobs program—nor do I want people at the helm who would kill 10-year-olds by forcing them to have rape babies. I don’t care if Biden face-planted five minutes into the debate and started talking to Great Ceasar’s Ghost—if he is what we have going into the election, then I am voting for him. At worst, Kamala Harris will take the helm if Biden can’t continue, and that is not a bad thing. Flipside—our daughters, mothers, and aunts will get more time in prison than men who would rape them, simply for having abortions. As a reminder of where SCOTUS stands: It’s a humanitarian no-brainer. Vote blue, ya’ll... please.
