I keep having to remind myself that politics is more fluid than most people think as the Corporate Media presents. Three quick examples:
- 1991: Everybody thought Bush the Elder would coast through 1992 thanks to his Gulf Distraction I but a lecherous hillbilly Fulbright scholar clobbered him with, “It’s the Economy Stupid!”
- 2007: Everybody thought the same lecherous hillbilly’s wife, a tone-deaf ghoul had the Democratic nomination locked up yet she was beaten by Black Nixon capitalizing on Boomer fatigue.
- 2015: Everybody thought JEB Bush was a lock. He hilariously flopped and pissed away millions as Girth Vader tapped into the very soul of the GOP, white hate.
However, the Democrats are circling the wagons (again) around Grampa’ Brunch while they’re hyping his too-little, too-late accomplishments. He’s too old. He’s too clueless. He’s too shitty as he’s yet another horrible NeoLiberal to the core. How easily the apologists forget he voted to put a rapist on SCOTUS and was co-author of the awful 1996 crime bill. Plus he’s the Big Banks’ bitch by representing a state that’s more of a corporation fiction than a real place. He only won the nomination in 2020 by making a deal with the equally ancient and corrupt Jim Clyburn which is also why the primaries for the Dems has put SC, a worthless state when it comes to getting elected if you’re a candidate with an IQ over 80.
I do hope someone more or even further to the Left challenges him because I wouldn’t vote Democratic if my life depended on it.
The apologists better hope like Hell the forecasts are right about Girth Vader defeating Meatball Ron and the election is rematch of Grumpy, Incompetent and Incontinent Old Men. A younger, more competent Fascist will mop the floor with Grampa.
