On the last night of the imaginary DNC convention taking place inside an editing room, the Democrats decided that the best way to win over independent voters was to bring in the least talented member of the Seinfeld cast to make jokes about Mike Pence’s name.
Why? It distracts from Joe Biden doesn’t it.
The joke here is positively Seinfeldian. Julia Louis Dreyfuss plays shallow, self-involved, and petty characters because she’s shallow, petty, and self-involved. The Democrats attack Trump as an unserious reality show host who confuses social media with leadership, and then debut a failed convention dominated by celebrities and badly written jokes aimed at social media.
“I’m proud to be a nasty, nasty woman,” Julia Louis Dreyfuss gloated.
It’s not just her own aspiration, but that of the party that invited her. The Democrats want to play at being serious, principled folks bringing the country together, but they’re proud to be nasty.
“I will draw on the best of us, not the worst of us,” Joe Biden claimed, accepting his nomination after a convention filled with conspiracy theories about mailboxes, smears, and cheap shots.
That promise is coming from a politician who spent his career insulting voters, calling them fat and stupid, whose family is notorious for profiting from his political office, who palled around with segregationists and sexual predators, but whom three nights of celebrities and fellow hacks from across the political swamp spectrum now insist is really a kind, decent, and loveable man.
Biden’s transformation after 47 years of nastiness is just as convincing as that of his party.
The Democrats insist that Joe Biden is a man of faith, even as their caucuses clip “God” out of the Pledge of Allegiance. They claim that they’re a movement of character, integrity, principles, and deep thought, and then drop it all to giggle about calling Pence, “Poonce”.
Biden, they insist, is a family man with real integrity. And to prove it, they trot out Hunter Biden, who had an affair with his dead brother’s wife and who was sued for child support by a stripper
“The day of cozying up to dictators is over,” Biden promised, while running on a platform of cozying up to the Islamic Republic of Iran, the PLO, and Communist China.
Biden promised that voting for him would mean choosing “facts over fiction” after speakers claimed that Trump was trying to take away people’s votes by stealing all the mailboxes.
The farce of a convention, in which no one is really being convened, plays out a rigged process that elevated two corrupt lightweights, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, who never actually won over a majority of Democrats, while depicting them as the second coming of Obama.
The obsessive compulsive diversity is a facade for a nomination that was determined in the same invisible room that put together the video clips compromising the fake DNC convention.
Without Obama, all that’s left is Joe Biden, and the men who wanted to be Obama, Buttigieg and Booker, taking their best shots at imitating Obama. Even without Obama on stage, the Democrats have been shaped and reshaped into the image of their condescending master.
The final night of the non-convention was shaped by two competing and incompatible Obamaesque imperatives, claiming the moral high ground and taking cheap shots.
Stripped of its prose, the theme of Biden’s speech and of the entire DNC fake convention was that Democrats are good people and that Republicans are bad people. Republicans were unserious, divisive, and all about name calling. While the Democrats are serious leaders.
“We are in a deep, dark hole and we need leaders who will help us dig out,” Andrew Yang intoned after making jokes about Pence’s last name.
That’s what real leaders trying to dig us out of deep holes do.
To top off the days of the TDS telethon Bidens 22 minute reading off a teleprompter, meaningless garbage strung together an inspiring stirring speech it was not. Fire the speech writers every last lying one of them.
No one in Milwaukee had to clean up after these slobs.
Apt description of the DNC convention from Ace of Spades:
“–The DNC tells America how relevant they are by dragging that old fossilized hippie Steven Stills out of cold storage to play a song that is 54 years old. Groovy, man.
–They had Bill Clinton lecturing Donald Trump on proper decorum for the Oval Office.
–Andrew Cuomo to to brag about his successes in fighting the covid pandemic in the state of New York. The really astounding aspect of this is that his constituents back home believed him.
–John Kerry presented himself as an expert in foreign policy. While pretty much unwatched here in America, word is that his ratings in Tehran were pretty good.
–Previously, Elizabeth Warren spoke on behalf of her fellow Native Americans. She should’ve shared her crab omelet recipe.
–the Hamas louse Linda Sarsour spoke on the topics of tolerance and acceptance of others.
I think the 2020 Democrat Party convention is just an extended “opposites” day.
Oh, and the unyielding tower of progressive principles Bernie Sanders was caught on open mic asking “how far do you want me to bend over?”
Add to that a conference of “impactful community leaders” which included Jamaican Donna Hlyton. If you don’t know about Donna Hlyton, she was once a prostitute that along with fellow prostitutes kidnapped a real estate agent, held him for three weeks of torture (Hlyton admitting she crushed his balls with pliers as well as raping the man with a metal rod [according to her, he was gay anyway, so what’s the big deal?]) until he died. She served 26 years behind bars for her “community leadership.”
Hylton was pardoned in 2012 (yeah, the Obama administration)
And nothing like having child support dodging Hunter Biden swearing to the honesty of his father.
What didn’t make the convention? Mention of the continuing burn, loot and murder riots in our city’s streets. The ongoing threat of China. How to get Americans back to work during a DNC pumped up virus crisis. The theme of the convention was NOT why Biden would be better than Trump, but that Biden is NOT Trump and that’s all you need to know.
But congratulations to the doctor that pumped Bargain Basement Joe full of Aracept to get him through his teleprompter speech last night.
@kitt: How many takes do you think Biden’s speech took before they wrapped and played it?
Biden’s “Love and Light” speech is not a platform, nor is it a statement of goals or actions he’d pursue.
I just thought of “famous” speeches like that.
JFK – dead.
Carter – Landslide defeat
Biden – who knows what will happen…except an inevitable Trump victory.
