Axelrod can eat a bag of dicks for all I care. One flippant remark from Ossoff and for once a Democrat drives the news cycle, and what does Axelrod do? He has aneurysm. Ossoff seems to have the good sense to ignore the consultants this this around. More Dems need to follow suit.

When was the last time David Axelrod did any actually useful work? 2008? Oh, you helped one of the most charismatic people on Planet Earth to get elected President. Nice job, David, I'm sure that was quite a challenge for you.

And even that is sus. Obama won on charisma and weak opponent. Axelrod took the credit, the creep.

Like with Carville, who built a whole career out "helping" a guy who could improvise a 2-hour speech on health care when they put the wrong speech in the teleprompter. I hate Clinton and what he did to the Democratic Party, but there's no denying raw political talent, the kind of talent that even Carville couldn't fuck up.

They had no compunctions about slandering “heels-up Harris” during the election. (Which is especially rich since Harris has such a deep resume while Harp was homeschooled and has no resume at all.)

I love the flop analogy!

Yeah, if I had any take about Natalie Harp's inclusion, it's that she and her relationship with Donald Trump are deeply weird. It's outrage farming as only MAGA-adjacent media knows how to do it. The whole defense of women thing rings similarly hollow. We know they only care because she's on the "red" team.

They must be scared; they're getting desperate

I think that player who did The Flop in the video probably decided he didn't have anything more useful to contribute to the team. If you're flopping, you're probably losing, good players have more important things to do with their time.

Trump lives in a luxury bubble, a world of fantasy. And the primary job of everyone in the White House - Natalie Harp included - is to protect him from reality. That's the problem, not whether he's sleeping with her.

Did Ossoff including the words "with Natalie" distract from that point? More like the deeply silly people who work in the media were never going to broadcast the point Ossoff was making about serious danger we're all in with President Fantasy Bubble, and will always look for the silliest and stupidest angle to every story. Nevertheless, I think his larger point got through to anyone who isn't pretending to be stupid.

Thank you Parker

Maybe I am too stoned to try to commernt but my wife and I love Jon Ossoff for Biblical reasons written long before the immaculate conception.

I am 78 autistic and almost blind but I grew up on tater stew and I can read right threw the bullshit.

I live in Quebec and was born into Christian Patriarchy The Padlock law was ruled unconstitual in 1957

In 2019 our conservative right wing government passed Bill 21 saying all men are created equal and our ACLU said 85% of Quebecers don't like democracy. WE jOINED THE aclu IN THE 20TH CENTURY AND QUIT IN 2020 WHEN THE fASCISTS TOOK OVER ALL THREE BRANCHES BECAUSE jOE bIDEN BELIEVED cLARENCE tHOMAS WAS HUMAN AND aNITA hILL WAS THE dEVIL. kAMALA hARRIS WENT TO English Public Protestant School and the High School where Leonard Cohen sang Woody Guthrie. Thomas Paine had common sense and in Quebec health, education and welfare are the future and we can't change the past. In 1940 America First meant America Last. TRump is as they sayt 80 p[oints below water in Quebec's Matriarchal liberal democracy and Kamala is welcome to return and run for Prime Minister to replace Stephanie Frechette while Mark CFarney talks to your leaders who live in Humpty Dumpty's and Alice's Wonderland. My father in law wanted me to take over in Michigan but ICE in Broadview told me I ain't got no home in America and we have been home for over 20 years.
