Let Him Speak!
Issuing advice from a recent experience, ultra conservative humorist (an oxymoron if there ever was one), Ann Coulter, gave Don Von wise counsel yesterday. Advice that she, herself might have benefitted from last week: “STFU.”
That’s not something you say to a child-like 78 year old convicted criminal with a catastrophic case of Napoleonic delusions, but it needed to be said.
[STFU, FYI, is millenialspeak for shut your frickin’ piehole]
She should know. When Gov. Tim Walz was issuing his Vice Presidential nomination acceptance speech a week ago his son, Gus, erupted with tears of joy and pride on national TV.
To this, Coulter snarked “Talk about weird…” on “X”.
The backlash was immediate. Despite the report that Walz’s son has issues beyond being a boy of just 17 years (which is issue enough), the remark was justifiably panned as cruel and insensitive. Tommy Vietor, formerly a staffer with the Obama administration, put it succinctly: “I can see why a child loving their parents would feel foreign to you.”
This must have been inspirational to Coulter, who, upon learning that “45” wanted the mics on all the time at next month’s Presidential Debate, joined the pile-on that TFG’s paid campaign staffers were engaged in to keep the microphone of one debater muted while the other was speaking.
As previously agreed upon between the campaigns.
The reason this came up at all is that the Harris campaign changed their tune when they proposed an open mic format for the coming debate, obviously adopting the famous admonition by former TFG campaign manager Corey Lewandowski to “Let Trump be Trump.”
That sentiment has shifted now that there has emerged a paradigm shift, where a sex-crazed convicted fraudster is now pitted against a former prosecutor with a silver tongue and a cool head.
“Indeed,” Harris staffers seem to be saying, “Leave Von Shitzenpantz untethered.” Why work hard to discredit the bumbling and demented old geezer when he is so adept at doing it himself?
So maybe she learned the lesson a bit late (and I highly doubt it will ever be totally embraced), but at least Ann Coulter has been able to put a hard-learned lesson to good use.
And we can only hope that her sage counsel falls on deaf ears.
LET TRUMP BE TRUMP!
Dumpf can’t stfu because it’s on autopilot. The debate will be a shit show as he causes the moderators to also have to tell him to stfu. I just hope they call him out on the lies he will surely spout. They should already have a list in front of them because his lies are already well known. As we know, his magats love him for it.
1Coulter and loony laura loomer both had the same obnoxious things to say about Gus Walz and both did non apologies in their normal way.
Don has the right to remain silent, but not the ability.
2When even Annthrax wants him to shut up, that says a lot.
3Honey, this debate is going to be more fun than recess in heaven. I’m seriously considering making up a Trump bingo card of things he’s gonna just have to say. Anybody got any ideas?
4Juanita,
How about Radical Left Lunatic?
Tulsi & RFK Jr, etc will probably try to talk him out of anything that targets women or race, probably unsuccessfully, but radical left lunatic is relatively non specific.
5JJ- how about:
He’s a stable genius.
Only he can save America.
There’s already massive voter fraud going on in 2024.
He has no idea what project 2025 is.
Putin who?
He hires only the best people.
He’s going to be so good for women’s personal healthcare, women are going to love him.
Drill, drill, drill baby.
Don’t know how this would fit into your bingo game, but perhaps a list of uncomfortable things ABC should ask him, and if they do, we win.
6Forget about Cory Lewandowsk, I’ll go with Sun Tsu when he said” Never Interfere With an Enemy While He’s in the Process of Destroying Himself”!
7And he seems to gather jugheads like himself on his team. They caused a scene at Arlington Cemetery,taking campaign photos in an area where it’s not allowed. His people get into it with the staffers.
8Let’s hope he does that wandering around thing during the debate like he did with Clinton. Kamala can turn around and ask him if he’s lost.
