The debate: what a misery!

Kamala Harris immediately put the leash around Donald Trump’s neck and walked him around without any difficulty for an hour and a half, leading him from one trap to another. Trump always fell for all of them immediately, repeating his inventions endlessly, from the story of the stolen elections to the story of the already-born babies killed by abortion doctors.

He even repeated the story that the refugees who arrived from Haiti eat the dogs and cats of the Americans.

In other words, he did what he does almost every day, repeating the same idiocies, spending hours declaring that he won in 2020, that all his rallies are the biggest ever seen in America, that he will stop the war in Ukraine in which – he says – millions and millions of Ukrainians and Russians died, in one day, etc.

People in America, especially a growing number of Republicans, are sick and tired of Trump.

Kamala Harris never lost her composure and calm. She avoided all the scabrous points that could emerge.

She took a classic walk in the park, almost amused by the miserable spectacle of the old, exhausted charlatan who babbled his usual fantasies.

Will it solve the situation, pushing Trump even more toward a humiliating end of his troubled political life?

We’ll see, but Kamala Harri’s momentum will start moving up again.

Even the evangelicals have started to abandon Trump!

The endorsement of Kamala Harris by Taylor Swift – signing as “Childless Cat Lady” – dramatically shows more and more that Republicans have a big problem with women.

Having women as enemies is tough!

The sad squalor of the American Elections

The Trump supporters, to fend off the denunciations from the Democrats of the countless Trumo’s lies – an essential part of the Republican Campaign – invented the theory of the “correct direction.”

Trump’s VP JD Vance elaborated on this topic after the invention of the pet-eating immigrants, which had been promptly debunked, thanks to the intervention of Republican officials and North Carolina’s Republican Governor.

Still, JD Vance emphatically says the lie points in the “correct direction.”

Let us apply this profound philosophical concept to some of Trump’s debunked lies.

For example, Trump said that Woodie Golberg, the famous American actress, is ‘demential, filthy, dirty and disgusting.

There are several ‘correct directions’ for such a lie.

The first and most apparent is that being Woodie an American black, then American blacks are demential, filthy, dirty, and disgusting.

Another correct direction is that American black actors are demential, filthy, dirty, and disgusting.

A sub-category exists, the one of the black women actors.

During one of his rallies, he said Biden’s mind has deteriorated—sadly —making him mentally retarded, and the case was different for VP Harris, who he said was born that way.

This last invention is just an insult. Still, I mention it for two reasons: first, it further confirms that Trump is a cheap bull, using and enjoying foul language to delight his supporters, and second, it provides additional confirmation of how much he despises his base, throwing at it the cheapest arguments you can imagine, well sure of satisfying its appetite.

His tavern brawler style is a coveted choice. He thinks that his supporters, which include an array of common humanity, Christian nationalists and White Supremacists, as well as the bulk of tenacious conservatives, are delighted by the vulgarity of his rhetoric.

In that tone, yesterday, he emphasized the dignity and civility of his political dialogue calling Kamala Harris ” a shitty VP.”

Also, yesterday, he spent fifteen minutes illustrating to his base the incredible dimensions of the intimate parts of Arnold Palmer, the famous golfer.

Which is undoubtedly an essential and vital topic for the Republicans!

The “YES, BUT” of the WallStreet Journal

On the 20th, the WSJ published an editorial in which, after properly acknowledging the lies and fabrications of Donald Trump, made an extended analysis of what happened under his mandate and the actors and the circumstances that prevented his repeated attempts to push aside the law and at the very end of his presidency, to stop the power transfer to Biden.

The WSJ’s detailed analysis aims to dissipate Democrats’ and many Americans’ fears of an authoritarian Trump’s second mandate.

I am amazed by the fact that WSJ seems not to have noticed that their detailed descriptions of several events during Trump’s first mandate confirm that the fears of Trump’s declared authoritarian attitudes and purposes are very well founded.

Also, the WSJ’s reassurances that the same barriers and balances that mitigated or voided Trump’s violations of the rules four years ago still stand solidly fast are a somewhat questionable, if not dismissable, assumption.

To be fair to WSJ, today, WSJ has made a commendable analysis of the maneuvering that for months has been frantically going on behind the scenes in America on the Republican side to prepare itself to confront a deeply feared Trump defeat in the November elections.
