Media: The election winds down

What a week.  After last week, what else is there to say?  One dramatic moment after another.

 

Like most people, we learned of MAGA tramp Tucker Carlon's demon encounter on Friday.   What's leaked out is that crazy Mother Tucker, fired by FOX "NEWS," fired by PBS, fired by CNN, fired by everyone he's ever known, believes he was attacked by a demon -- while his wife was in bed with him.  That he was assaulted and left covered with claw marks.

That's interesting all by itself, however, we worked his circle of 'friends,' such as they are to find out more details of this already laughable tale.  Turns out, Mother Tucker claims the demon penetrated him and spent weeks afraid the demon had impregnated him.  No, we're not joking.


His already outrageous and insane claim just got nuttier the more we learned of it.


Tucker starring in his own version of ROSEMARY'S BABY.  Hilarious.  Can he discredit himself any more?


He's as nutty as the candidate he promotes, Donald Trump.


The last week of campaigning didn't find the Convicted Felon claiming a demon had impaled his bussy. But he served up about everything else.  


He kicked off last week in NYC with his Sunday Nazi rally at Madison Square Garden.  Tony Hinchcliffe was only one of many people spewing hate from the stage.  Paid whore Jonathan Turley felt Hinchcliffe made "a" bad joke.  Which one?


The ones about Jews?  The ones about Blacks?  The ones about Puerto Ricans?


Yeah, liar, "a" bad joke.


How bad was it?  JD Vance and Donald both claimed all week not to have heard the remarks.  By Saturday, as Maurício Alencar  (THE DAILY BEAST) noted, Trump was excusing the routine he still claimed not to have heard.  He made that claim when he called into FOX "NEWS" on Saturday and then, the next day, he's slamming FOX "NEWS' at a rally. Sarah Fotensky (THE HILL) quotes him stating, "FoxNews keeps putting on Democrat ads, as part of their news program. Their soundbites are almost all of Harris and her Democrat friends, all of whom are on the shows.  FOX NEWS IS NOT OUR FRIEND! It is crazy."


The whole last week has been crazy as Donald's mouth has bled out blather.


For example, he again wished violence on former US House Rep Liz Cheney -- this time guns pointed at her head in a firing squad.   Threats of violence are all the tired, old crook had to offer.  THE TIMES OF ISRAEL noted today:


Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump suggested at a rally in Pennsylvania on Sunday that he “shouldn’t have left” the White House after his 2020 loss to Democrat Joe Biden, and said he wouldn’t mind if someone shot reporters at the campaign event.

In a meandering 90-minute rally speech two days before Tuesday’s US presidential election, Trump attacked the news media at length, at one point gesturing to TV cameras and saying, “ABC, it’s ABC, fake news, CBS, ABC, NBC. These are, these are, in my opinion, in my opinion, these are seriously corrupt people.”


Between those threats?  He managed to mime jerking off a microphone and going down on it in Milwaukee.  He also managed to threaten violence from the stage, "You've gotta be kidding. Do you want to see me knock the hell out of people backstage?"  Warren, Michigan found him unable to say "recession," in Atlanta, George he called Kamala "a twain weck."  He's an embarrassment who long ago lost his cognitive skills and just stands in front of smaller crowds speaking about his "beautiful white skin" and his hair and other topics that have nothing to do with our lives and that's why more and more people are walking out of these rallies long before he completes his free association remarks passed off as speeches.  In Latrobe, Pennsylvania, he'd already began speaking when he announced he was leaving the stage to comb his hair but he would be right back.  While in North Carolina, Trump didn't know he was . . . speaking in North Carolina.


He should have never had any real shot at the White House this year.  But, and we won't ever forget this, beggar media -- DEMOCRACY NOW!, THE NATION, IN THESE TIMES, THE PROGRESSIVE, etc -- spent months and months helping Donald and/or helping that other grifter Jill Stein.  If you missed it, when THE NATION's owner Katrina vanden Heuvel got called out for her racism two weeks ago, she first shut down comments on her TWITTER feed (only her approved circle of friends could now comment) and then she rushed to Tweet about Kamala and tried to get the magazine on board with Kamala (prior to this, only Joan Walsh and John Nichols were writing positive pieces about Kamala while interns were attacking her daily including in their ridiculous 'editorial' -- we don't give money to THE NATION for them to turn the rag over to interns).  Amy Goodman had even more to lose.  And when the calling out on her racism began, she rushed to suddenly find guests who were positive about Kamala.  For three months she ignored those people but finally found them last Thursday and Friday.  She only found them because Americans were outraged.  Amy's on TV and radio as well as online.  Her image and name are much bigger than Katrina vanden Heufel's but we'll never forget (or forgive) the fact that the two women did everything in their power to re-elect Donald Trump and only stopped that effort when they called out for racism.


There's another reason they did what they did and we hope to address that next week when we're writing about Kamala Harris being elected our next president.  That's our hope.  If we all do everything we can to get out the vote, she will be our next president. 


Right now?  Right now we're exhausted.  It's been drama, drama, drama.  That and hatred is all Donald Trump has to offer.  It's a real shame that while most of us were fighting for the future of this country, beggar media was doing everything it could to tear down Kamala and re-elect Donald Trump.
