This is my issue with loomer, and anyone taking her remotely serious, she's 6 months late to the party and acts like she's the only one bringing up this important stuff and the only one doing this useful work.

This bitch has never broken a story in her life, she only steals from others. She tried to cover the darien gap stuff months after tucker and one of those weinsteener bros did it months before. she tried to claim she went there first and the winsteener guy just copied her useful, helpful and totally worth the shekels she's begging for her unique research. Turns out she went 2 months after brett (i think) went. She's decent at getting eyes on stuff, but her missteps make her untrustworthy at best.

Imagine the prospect of Trump with a handful of dems actually willing to play ball. It only took Manchin to really throw a wrench in the works for Biden's more disastrous plans. Trump with a small rep majority and 2-3 dems playing ball would be wild

Given how feckless and awful so many Republicans are, this is not at all out of the realm of possibility.

Yes, it was dumb that her campaign advisor told her to not go to the Al Smith dinner ... But Kamala SHOULD be smart enough to be aware of the optics of not showing up too. lol. Can she not make decisions on her own or something?

Pretty typical late-Baby Boomer management behavior. She has been delegating nearly every management decision since ~her late 20s.

The Gen-Xers, that used to handle this sort of thing for most Boomers, all gained understanding of how the machines worked and are now off doing their own shit.

This leaves Boomer managers with a staffing pool of dopamine fried Zoomers with zero experience who try to professionally navigate via "vibes," and aging Redditor Millennials who have failed to launch.

This cascade generates the results you see here.

incredibly prescient episode

I'm shocked that the Ms. Garrison episode hasn't been quietly erased given how on the nose it is for the trans/genderqueer shit.

They even show and describe the surgery (though I know some people who thought that was also a joke in the episode).

Trey Parker and Matt Stone must have some dirt or something because the globohomos have literally gone after and cancelled people who have been dead longer than they've been alive.

They know she can’t speak well off the cuff, so they need to regularly have her give rehearsed and pre recorded speeches. It helps keep up the illusion that she’s better at public speaking than she really is. Though, her not going to the dinner in person was awful optics. Even if she messed up a bit here and there in her speech, it would at least look more genuine. If she can’t even take a light ribbing in person for a dinner meant to be unifying between the political parties, she likely won’t do well getting grilled by foreign leaders. Her not going to this doesn’t speak well of her actual ability to lead.

100%

Literally everything she does or says is so calculated that she doesn't come across as human whatsoever.

And the arrogance about it is just astounding too. Her appearance on Charlamagne's podcast really showcased how much disdain she holds for the average person. When she was confronted about how she always reads from a script and repeats everything the says, her literal response was "Um, it's called having discipline, and you're welcome, America." Then she went on this tangent about how Americans are basically too stupid to let any "messages" sink in unless they are repeated all of the time. What a colossal bitch, haha.

I'd say that even her "beer drinking" stunt on Colbert had the opposite effect of what she intended. Firstly, she struggled even opening the beer, and secondly ... I don't believe for a second that she actually drinks beer. If she had been offered a beer and she said, "Sorry, I actually prefer wine" or something, then she would have absolutely come across as more genuine and human. Nah ... Instead she's like "You're all so stupid that you'll be impressed when I take a few sips from some shitty can of beer."

And you're right about the world leaders. None of them are going to give her the time of day if she becomes President because of how thin skinned and incapable she is to lead.

She would be an embarrassing "First Woman President," and all of the people who say that women shouldn't become President because of a general lack of emotional control will pretty much be proven correct by her, haha.

I can’t believe they’re taking that much advice from Cuban it’s hysterical to think they would. Why did they stop with Molly Shannon’s superstar bit? Why not bring back all the shit SNL sketches that went too long?
I’m sorry if you watched any of these sketches linked above. They hold a very specific dose of nostalgia for me. SNL was special in the late 90s for me because it being Saturday night that was the only time of the week I was allowed to stay up instead of being sent to bed. What I remember was my Mom, Dad, and older sibling all SHITTING ON THESE SKETCHES. I distinctly remember my Mom saying “Oh no not the Cheerleader sketch again!” And Molly Shannon’s catholic girl is one of the last things I remember because that’s when SNL took a huge dive in quality and was never relevant to me again.

The only way that shitty SNL tribute would have brought buzz is if they had Maya Rudolph appear doing her Kamala impression. It’s surprising that Rudolph must have not taken that favor and Gaffigan handled his hosting duties professionally and avoided taking a real swing at Trump.

TDS effected individuals have only been able to pearl clutch that Trump said “shit” during his routine as if we’re still living in the 1960s.

This is somewhat off topic (SNL was already brought up ITT months ago), but…have you seen what Chris Kattan looks like in the year of our lord 2024?

He resembles some kind of bestial otherworldly cryptid. Not good.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, having received a lackluster response when he pitched his 'victory plan' to US officials in Washington last month, now says that Ukraine must either join NATO or obtain nuclear weapons.

He made the ultra provocative comments while speaking before the EU’s European Council in Brussels, where he presented the victory plan before European lawmakers. That's when he referenced a recent private conversation with Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, saying he told Trump that his country needs "some kind of alliance" or be "forced to pursue nuclear weapons."

"In a conversation with Donald Trump I said – this is our situation: What way out do we have? Either Ukraine will have nuclear weapons, which for us will be a defense, or we’ll need to have some sort of alliance, besides NATO. But today we know of no other alliance," Zelensky said.

How about we just kill you and end this fucking war.
Either option will start WWIII because putin doesn't want you having nukes. Nor does he want you in NATO
Before any of that, maybe start wearing fucking suits to big meeting Jew
You got the money to afford a few

More evidence FJB sucks as president. And allow our enemies to walk all over us.

Iirc, even in the late 90s the dude pretty clearly had a plastic surgery habit. If you fuck with your face it's gonna be apparent later as you age.

The downfall timeline where he gives his company a no-bid contract to process mandatory digital ID verification and digi-dollar transactions would be crazy. I think we could finally add "cyberpunk" to our dystopia.

If one of her staff snap one day, they could almost recite word for word the rant Amy had for Selina Meyer when she quit as her campaign manager in Veep and it wouldn't be inaccurate.

“You have two settings: No decision and bad decision. I wouldn’t let you run a bath without having the Coast Guard and the fire department standing by, but yet, you are running America.”

I remember thinking that was one of Hillary’s biggest problems in the lead-up to 2016. That every word that came out of her mouth sounded like it was workshopped through no fewer than three focus groups beforehand. That she could not sound genuine, even if her life depended on it.

And we all saw how it turned out for her. Hoping for a similar result this November.

The Dean Martin celebrity roasts back in the '70s were pure kino. Funny, funny shit.

The difference with those old roasts is that all those guys knew each other, were friends, and the viewers knew it was all in good fun. Modern roasts are strangers being mean to each other. I agree with Norm Macdonald's assessment of roasts.

I do not hope that this happens and would be the first to express shock and sympathy if it did, but can you imagine if Harris bullies a staffer to the point that the individual snaps violently? You'd think people would know not to abuse others so much, but here we are.
