I listened to a few minutes of Trump's speech, and it is clear that he was keeping the fact checkers busy. Same lies, same dystopian vision, same narcissistic, self-congratulatory list of putative achievements. We'd best make a gargantuan effort to share reality with others to encourage them to vote blue, no matter who the Dem nominee is.

I tried to listen to his whole speech which was mind numbing. I actually got sidetracked, he was spewing out so much bull pucky, as Rachel Maddow like to say, that it made me realize I needed to clean my kitty's litter box & throw out her little turds! Would that I could scoop the turds out of the country as easily as clumpable litter makes it to scoop out the litter box. Meow >^..^<
Oooh….oooh….love the term “Trump Turds” for his little/big lies. Too bad they don’t have him standing on a platform of kitty litter to speak, so as to “catch” all the turds falling from his butt-lips (sorry for the visual). 🤮
Saw some of the Trump rant too because the local news had some outage caused by a Microsoft hack or something to that effect. It caused problems at airports, some banks, even as far away as Australia, apparently.
What was much better was Senator Bernie Sanders on Colbert tonight. I highly recommend watching it. Really a great interview, so cogent and well spoken and he's 82. He's still supporting Biden too.
If the Dems don't disable themselves with contention over Biden's leadership. At this point, i think more post-debate damage has been done, by far, by ongoing bids for Biden to quit, while the campaign leadership has stressed continuation. Replacement may leave the party more "broke" than ever. I was amazed at how much eg MSNBC/CNN spent going over the Biden/Dem problem at the RNC the last few nights than nailing the GOP outrageous lies and exaggerations ongoing through the whole convention.
Strongly agree. There was way too much talk about the Biden candidacy and the Democratic leaders who are hurting the campaign by saying Biden is too old to run and can’t win. The hosts at MSNBC seemed biased against Biden, except for the most experienced one, Lawrence O’Donnell. They were covering the RNC and should have been critiquing it instead of Biden. I wondered why they were even in Milwaukee!
Also, Heather omitted the fact the during the Mueller probe, Manafort’s deputy campaign manager in the 2016 campaign, Rick Gates, testified Manafort gave the campaign’s internal polling data to Konstantin Kilimnik, a Russian intelligence operative who worked for Oleg Deripaska, who in turn was running the Russian election interference unit. Manafort did that to help the Russians better target their social media campaign to influence voters. This is collusion and was detailed in the Mueller Report.
The meetings took place in the bar at the top of 666 Fifth Avenue, the building owned by Jared Kushner.
Agree with you both also. Not enough time to get another winning candidate in place anyway. Sounds like a disastrous scenario about to unfold for the Democratic convention only 1 month away.
Thanks for the further details about the Russian election interference too.
What an appropriate venue for such a diabolical meeting to take place!
I remember being a little shocked as a kid seeing the 666 Fifth Avenue location on Warner Bros. record labels in the 70s and 80s.
Alexander, if "the hosts at MSNBC seemed biased against Biden," he has lost. That's like in 2020 when the conservative flagship Wall Street Journal published very negative stories about Trump, and in 1968 when Walter Cronkite of CBS News criticized Lyndon Johnson's Vietnam policies. "If I've lost Walter, I've lost the country," LBJ said, and withdrew from the campaign shortly after that. Or if Fox News starts broadcasting criticism of Trump, you know he's lost. These are bellwethers.
Apologies if it was hard to like this comment although I know you're probably right. It's all for the Democrats to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory now, and we must win this one in November. So let's hope Fox News starts the criticism of Trump that you mentioned because it is just too unbearable to think what 2025 will be like if a Democrat is not elected as president on November 5.

Mental turds.
Hey ! tRump stinks, dropping not just mental turds. Narcissism makes him think it's OK.
Are you one of the cat ladies that Vance said are running the country?

>^••^< meow!!!!
Dog lady here, but I can celebrate cats, too
I love dogs too.

Doing that just now, shortly, as the kitty has just finished scratching.

Circular firing squad: Democrat's "go to" conflict resolution method.
