Again, CW, once we're beyond this Repug shit show Convention I'd like your take on why The Lincoln Project people seem so much better at excoriating Trump than the Democrats are. You know, if we ever get a slow news week -- ha!

Melania's asinine assertion that Donald loves the American people and that he works for them night and day to make life better for them. President Trump eats, breathes and sleeps the American people - making their lives better is the first thing he thinks of in the morning and the last thing before he sleeps, in other words.

Who knew?

You meant that in a bad way, right?

Because, she sure as heck stole something.

The person who is supposed to know his character the best -- his spouse -- didn't have a single word to say about what a swell guy he is (other than that risible "honesty" moment, I suppose).

Not to worry, and here's why. The person who actually knows his character the best -- his fixer -- has plenty to say about what a "swell guy" he is:

For more than a decade, I was President Trump's right-hand man, fixer, and confidant. I was complicit in helping conceal the real Donald Trump. I was part of creating an illusion.

Later this week, he's going to stand up and blatantly lie to you. I'm here to tell you, he can't be trusted, and you shouldn't believe a word he utters. So when you watch the president this week, remember this: If he says something is huge, it's probably small. If he says something will work, it probably won't, and if he says he cares about you and your family, he certainly does not. He's going to tell you that if you reelect him, the economy will bounce back, that only he can get us out of this economic crisis. Maybe for those like him, but if you think he cares about working-class Americans, you're dead wrong.

The president is going to talk to you about law and order; that's laughable. Virtually everyone who worked for his campaign has been convicted of a crime or is under indictment, myself included. So when the president gets in front of the cameras this week, remember that he thinks we're all gullible, a bunch of fools. I was a part of it, and I fell for it. You don't have to like me, but please listen to me.

It's almost impossible to count how many people Trump has picked online fights with, at this point. He is the canceller-in-chief.

Trump has without doubt transformed the GOP into the
Grieving Old Piteous.

Irony? Is that when women iron your shirts or something?

"Irony" is the rust-colored hue that is transferred from the Trumpian tiny hand to the "suburban housewife" when grabbed by the arm or something.

Trump -- and by extension the entire Republican Party -- now perfectly fits the classic definition of a bully: someone who loves dishing it out but cannot take it in return.

Yes, sir... dead on balls accurate, including the entire lot of gullible Trumpian sycophants who worship the criminal con and have bought "all in" to the utter asinine and nonsensical notion that Donald Trump gives two shits about their lives. The real "hoax" is that Trump has spent his entire life screwing over the little guy; so what's a few million more at this point? He's a criminal who judges the worth of a man by his bank account and his fame, and there is never enough to fill that empty space.

High point? Those are two words for it.

Well, I got two words for you, missy: Be Best. ;) *grin*

Have Biden or the Democrats spoken to the people in harms way?

Sorry, I couldn't resist. I'm just not that strong.

When talking about Melania, I can't help but think of The Onion's recent story about her having "the talk" with young son Barron:

"WASHINGTON—Reflecting that the moment had finally come for the difficult conversation, Melania Trump reportedly took some time Thursday to sit Barron down and tell him he was bred for his organs. ..." (The Onion, 7/16/20)

And, the winner is .... Melania! Hands down - Kellyanne doesn't hold a candle, in fact. Ahem.

Yeah?

Well, I watched the whole speech and I think she lives on another planet with another husband named Donald.

While she stared out fine with all of the sympathy that actually came across as genuine, she completely blew all that with the rest of her asinine speech.

Really!? I heard her speech was pretty delusional and focused on the media.

Melania's speech was the high point of the night

Now that Kellyanne is abandoning ship, somebody's gotta do the gaslighting. Can something really be a high point if it's subterranean?
