I guess I'm going to have to revive my old Hard Lessons to be Learned Before the Next Election topic. I thought I had just about beaten it to death, and became bored with it. But, obviously, there are still unbelievers out there. So, I'd better get back to it, and complete my editing.

Last post by Pergamos - February 08, 2026, 05:55:34 PMQuote from: Abbot Mythos on February 03, 2026, 11:05:51 PMNovember 7th, 2028 is a long way off, and a lot is going to happen between now and the U.S. Presidential Election. But, at the time of this posting, I think James Carville knows what he's talking about:
The Democrat James Carville thinks is worth watching in 2028 will surprise you
"Carville says Kamala Harris 'has no chance' in 2028 Democratic primary"
As per this article:
"Asked about whether he could see Harris as the party's standard-bearer in 2028, Carville responded, "She has no chance."
Harris replaced then-President Joe Biden as the Democrats' 2024 presidential nominee after Biden dropped his bid in July of that year, a month after a disastrous debate performance against Trump. Harris ended up losing the general election to Trump, who narrowly swept all seven key battleground states.
"No Democrat wants anything to do with anybody that had anything to do with 2024," Carville emphasized, as he reasoned why Harris couldn't win the 2028 nomination. He also questioned whether Harris, the nation's first female and first Black vice president, had the ability to energize the Black community if she launched another White House run.
Carville said that the Democrats' mantra heading into 2028 is "just win," and argued that "if we nominate two white males, nobody's going to give a s---.""
And, I couldn't agree more.
The candidate's race and gender matter a lot less than their positions. If we nominate Newsom and Buttigeig they'll repeat Harris' losing strategy of attempting to pursue GOP voters while ignoring progressives and the left. At this point a candidate that campaigns on cutting off Israel, and dismantling ICE can win, one that supports genocide and retaining the American Gestapo isn't going to be able to out fascist Vance, or whoever the GOP puts up, but they will be able to alienate a huge portion of their base.
My preference would be for a working class patriot who wants to take down the pedophiles and the system that enabled their predation. I haven't seen a candidate like that yet, but I'm sure there are some out there. I know that would resonate with not only the left, and the mainstream Democrats, but also QAnon types and a lot of the folks who voted for Sanders and Trump, or Trump and Mamdani.

In Nazi Germany the two strongest forces of resistance to the Brownshirts were the jazz fans. Jazz was one of the first things the one balled arsehole banned as it was black music. (Echoes of this in the Bad Bunny fiasco at the Super bowl) Kids took wind up gramophones to parks & beaches to dance in overt acts of public rebellion. They fought running battles with Hitler Youth & SA units. Often utilising those gramophones as weapons.
Florida kids have taken up the cudgel. Don't be like the German parents were & let them stand alone against tyranny.

He's not averse to throwing anyone under the bus to save his own saggy arse. Made a career out of it. Well out of that & nicking..Well ... given the quotation in the title of the following article, I wouldn't bet the farm on the POSOTUS aiming his catchphrase at a "staffer" today:
Trump won't apologize for sharing since-deleted racist video depicting Obamas as apes on Truth Social
As per this article:
"President Donald Trump refused to apologize Friday after posting and then deleting a racist video depicting former President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama as apes in a jungle, insisting he hadn't seen the final frames containing the offensive content and blaming a staffer for the mistake"
And, as per further along in this article:
"Trump said after he watched the first section of the video, he passed it on to a staffer, who he said should have watched it to the end.
"Somebody slipped and missed a very small part," he said.
But when asked directly whether he would apologize amid GOP calls to do so, he declined.
"No," he said. "I didn't make a mistake.""
Now, U.S. President Harry S. Truman kept a sign on his desk that read "The BUCK STOPS here!" But, the POSOTUS has little in common with "Give 'em Hell, Harry!" (My father, a Democrat, liked to refer to him as "High tax Harry.")
Quote from: Mandelbrot Slapper on February 07, 2026, 10:31:50 PMNow I think at this time, as the foundations are laid for rise of The Turd Reich, everyone should read a fabulous early 20th century novel called The Berlin of Sally Bowles by Christopher Isherwood.I'm not familiar with any of the works of Christopher Isherwood. But, I'll put your recommendation on my future reading list.
Lovely depiction of what happens to a dying imperial power's society when the rabble is hungry enough to be thoroughly roused.
There was quite a good Broadway show of it as well. But do read the book.

Last post by Abbot Mythos - February 07, 2026, 11:36:40 PMI haven't seen much MSM coverage of the POSOTUS Greenland Invasion Threat over the past couple of weeks. But, I did find this:
Europeans don't admit Greenland concessions, JD Vance says
As per this article:
"European allies of the US have made more concessions to the US over Greenland than they publicly admit, Vice-President JD Vance has said.
"We definitely have gotten much more than we initially had," Vance said in an interview on the Megyn Kelly Show.
He suggested that the "framework of a future deal" - unveiled by President Donald Trump last month - would be of benefit to the US."
Well ... given the title of this article, and JD 'Just Dance' Vance's casual relationship with the truth, it appears the POSOTUS got less than nothin', much less a "framework of a future deal," after making his invasion threats. So, I'm chalking this all up as being no more than yet another tiresome episode of the Turd Reich's 'Merican reality TV show, and yet another distraction.

Last post by Abbot Mythos - February 07, 2026, 12:41:03 AMTrump's racist video about Obamas is deleted after backlash
"The White House initially rejected 'fake outrage' over the video shared on Donald Trump's Truth Social account depicting Barack and Michelle Obama as monkeys. Nearly 12 hours after the post appeared, an official said that a staffer erroneously made the post and that it had been taken down."
Now, as I heard it, the POSOTUS was famous for using the catchphrase "You're fired!" on his reality TV show. (Having never watched the show, I wouldn't know from personal experience.)
So, has the "staffer" who supposedly "erroneously made the post" been placed on the receiving end of that catchphrase?
