On the opening night of the Democratic National Convention, Joe Biden was given the not-so-prime-time slot, 11:30 PM Monday night, for his speech. This was not the place to put a president who Nancy Pelosi and other Democrats say deserves to be mounted on Mount Rushmore.
Democrats went crazy for Biden – just weeks after he left the presidential race. It confirms the old show business adage: Give the people what they want and they will always cheer in appreciation. They showed Biden the door, something Obama and everyone else on stage with Biden for the past four years had to do.
Biden’s speech was supposed to be his “swan song.” Here’s a little known fact: Swans are strong. Their wings can break a human’s arm. But humans have shotguns now, so swans rarely start anything with us anymore.
The Democratic National Convention was held in crime-ridden Chicago. The weather was bad and the police were everywhere. Against the background of the conditions, gangs had to postpone several murders. When VP nominee Tim Walz looked into crime statistics in Democrat-controlled Chicago, he asked if he could delay his posting to Chicago and just Zoom in.
So far, the only policy statement from Harris is that she will work on inflation by implementing price controls, a Marxist idea that has never worked. Showing her financial depth, she said “price measurement” instead of “price cutting”. You can see that deep down her financial knowledge is very shallow.
Che Guevara, Stalin, Mao, Hitler, Castro, Mussolini, Putin and North Korea’s Kim Jong-un are some of the economic luminaries who used price controls. Recently, President Nicolás Maduro destroyed Venezuela, whose great economy he inherited, by imposing price controls to discourage the capitalists of the “parasitic bourgeoisie.” Slandering capitalism is a mindless strategy always used by the left. This is what Kamala is doing with her only stated economic plan to save us from the inflation the Democrats caused. Let’s call her “Che-mala.”
Harris continues to shamelessly appeal to a group of voters who don’t understand economics and just want to be given something by others. A free and fair market is the only way to improve the lives of ordinary people. The story is clear: Socialist government intervention scares away capital and capitalists, who are the ones who provide goods and services to people at a fair price.
The media continues to blatantly cover up Harris’ far-left past. Kamala 5.0 is being created by the DNC in a lab (probably federally funded by Fauci and the NIH) and promoted by the media. They are “re-introducing her”. She has been reintroduced more times than the McRib.
In a recent Media Research Center analysis, 84% of Harris’ media coverage was positive and 89% of Trump’s coverage was negative. Let it sink in.
Any grassroots love for Harris and her running mate is just astroturf. Her henchmen cleared out and staged a visit to a convenience store to buy Doritos in Pennsylvania. They planted friends in a cafe to ask her softball questions. Harris used child actors rather than ordinary children in a famous staged Q-and-A. The one question the media had asked her recently was, “Tell us about the work you’ve done preparing your DNC speech.” A follow-up question might as well have been, “Tell us your favorite color.” Our media is at an all-time low.
Harris was voted the most liberal senator, beating out Bernie Sanders. They all seem to have a fascination with communist policies and their promises: free health care, medical care and education. Yet they fail to mention the three epic failures of Communism to the people: breakfast, lunch and dinner.
