The former party of Bill Clinton and James Carville pretty much went splat last night in Vegas in a two hour debate which most probably will propel Democratic Socialist Bernie Sanders to the party’s nomination in 2020.
It was such an odd evening as the same Donald Trump who has trampled the constitution with warp speed in these days following his impeachment acquittal wasn’t an issue. Trump wasn’t hardly even mentioned in a debate which resembled a one-sided cage fight with Michael Bloomberg not knowing what hit him in the first forty minutes or so.
Who would have ever known the British Labour Party could street fight like this in Las Vegas of all places.?
Putting the cage fight aside…it wasn’t much of a night for discussing gun control, budget deficits, climate change, immigration, job creation, realistic health care proposals, or America’s standing in the world.
It was however a huge night for horse-faced lesbian jokes or the prospect Michael Bloomberg has told such a joke somewhere in his sordid past in which he’s given his money away to help with the very issues mentioned above.
It didn’t matter either that like Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, and other billionaires…. he does enjoy making money and then giving it away to help other people in pursuit of the American Dream or possibly making their lives better.
Forgive me for ever embracing the quaint notion the party of Bill Clinton’s dick was going to be lazer-focused on you know…maybe defeating Donald Trump in the upcoming election.
It was surreal that the same Elizabeth Warren who embraced the Team Clinton ticket in 2016 with all the sport fucking which has occurred in Bill Clinton’s life was suddenly so outraged over an off color joke or two by a New York billionaire.
Color me Al Franken and color Donald Trump as a prohibitive favorite to be re-elected this coming November unless the economy goes big-time south.
Some pundits this morning claim Mike Bloomberg might be able to pull himself off the canvass and redeem himself in the next debate. Good luck with that unless he takes a chain saw with him to the next debate and cuts off both of Elizabeth Warren’s arms so as she can’t be the only person talking for almost two hours.
I’m to assume Ms. Warren didn’t vote for Bush 41 in ’92 or Bob Dole in ’96…. that she in fact most probably voted for sports fuck savant Bill Clinton in both of those elections as well.
But at least when Bubba was playing Cigar Daddy with Monica Lewinsky he wasn’t telling any off color jokes, right.
Hypocrisy much?
But this isn’t a surprise to me and this is precisely why in 2000 when I left the GOP …. I never considered re-registering as a Democrat. I must not be alone in this thought as currently 70% of registered voters aren’t signed on to the Democratic Party as well.
So what does Elizabeth Warren get out of this? Does she get the nod to be Big Brother Bernie’s vice-presidential partner with the hope of ruling Denmark at some point?
Trump isn’t the only one giddy this morning. Steve Bannon is almost home with his master plan for America. Kellyanne Conway, Mitch McConnell, and the Mercer family are popping champagne corks. Fox News must be ecstatic as well. Rick Wilson, George Conway and George Will…not so much
It was a great night for the MAGA people and the British Labour Party.
Mike Bloomberg and lesbian horse jokes…not so much. Al Franken …we feel your pain, buddy.
