All the News that Fits 0

Michael in Norfolk thinks that today’s press is missing the point.

. . . . too many “journalists” continue the pretense that Trump is normal and stupidly treat the election as a horse race and utterly fail the public which deserves a candid assessment of Trump’s mental illness and decline that is spiraling before our eyes.

Mangy comments at the Youtube page:

Mangy Fetlocks has noticed certain traits and behaviors that seem universal among adherents to the MAGA movement. For those who wish to become MAGAts (but have not sustained any serious head injury or possess a profound personality disorder) Mangy wrote this song to outline some of the basic tenets every good, blindly-obedient MAGAt needs to master.

Dis Coarse Discourse, Reprise 0

Retired attorney, judge, and a 24-year veteran of the Kansas Army National Guard Thomas Arnhold reveals what he has learned about himself from Republican campaign ads in Missouri. For example:

I am a despicable human, and I am an enemy of the country. The announcers and politicians speak of those not siding with them in a tone that drips with disdain and venom. Apparently, people like me are bent on turning the United States into a cesspool.

What’s in a Name? 0

Boston University Professor Joshua Pederson offers a theory as to why Donald Trump continually and (apparently) intentionally mispronounces Kamala Harris’s first name (and, note, it is not a difficult name to pronounce). Here’s a bit from his article:

His mispronunciation, then, is a not-so-subtle message about power and control. Don’t worry, he’s saying to his acolytes. She doesn’t get to say who she is; I do. This is how mispronunciation goes from microaggression to macroaggression. And Trump is making it seem OK.
