#GQP / #TrumpVirus #Cult #Convention
Late Night/Seth Meyers:
Post-script: After watching (even some of) the longest & most perseverative convention speech in the history of the universe: "This should keep fact-checkers busy a long, long time." And still fascinating for some of us to watch for the #psychopathology on display.
Speaking of actual #Truth / #fact based #news / #journalism

Just… ugh.
Wednesday, the 17th of June 2024. (Hat-tip to Walter Cronkite.)
The only other snappy and relevant quote that springs to mind after hearing/reading this is: “A fine mess!” - Laurel & Hardy, 20BC

Fantasy, retribution, hate, projection & malignant narcissism self-obsession - by Sir #TrumpVirus of the #AllTheBestWords #GQP #media Klan.
Well, all right.
(Anybody remember #Jan6 or #justice ?)
Will anybody notice? Our zones are flooded! Thanks, Bannon and the #GQP #cult #disinformation #media machine!

From self-enrichment via payday loan schemes, to a narcissistic and factually questionable book, to Hitler's VP... So terrific.
While we're all bombarded with #disinformation and #tribal political warfare, the #GQP convention, etc...
Some of us had turn the tubes off, as even beloved 'news' show helped deify the personification of evil, corruption, distrust & hate.
Thankfully, the late-nite shows offered up only the highlights, PLUS #ContextAndPerspective.

#TrumpVirus / #GQP #cult of #disinformation (and such terrific optics!)
So nice to see some #truth & perspective amid the orgy of homage to evil & #doubespeak. The pageantry stench was too much.
#GQP programmed #cult rituals & singing the narrative, praising a false god (and actual rapist/criminal/fraud) while making Biden and all "radical liberals" (who's that? AOC) into the Devil incarnate. But there is an actual Devil we DO know, evil & spreader of corruption.
The 'good news' is that apparently outside the Convention Center, some sentient beings ( the'woke') are blasting through, with #truth
Anti-Trump protesters at the Republican National Convention decried political violence of all kinds while condemning threats to democracy and the GOP agenda.
For today, Lord #TrumpVirus has all the cards breaking his way.... The Dark Lord StableGenious has God's blessing no more court cases, #Jan6 never happened, #SCROTUS is not at all corrupt, & Sir #TrumpVirus can stop bullets. Even PBS and all the networks are just letting the lies spew on and on, pop the cork. (Well, they have to?) But not every brain is shut down, despite the traumas and flooding the zone of everything with #disinformation and now 1-dimensional chess, as Trump et al try to be "the healers & unifiers".
We'll see how that goes. So happy to see some print/web media still reporting on reality, and it's not all hopeless, yet...
Quite unusual for me, but I just couldn't watch the lying, screaming, cult-fest all over the TV screens now...
So I checked into the interwebs here, and what did I see? Well, it is a family affair in #TrumpVirus-ville
Well, we've seen much much worse almost every day from that cesspool of evil and strange, the 'mind' of Donald's #truth & #social ...
#GQP #morality #hypocrisy #WeirdMan Such a loving and normal family! Nobody more qualified to be your savior, enduring bullets for you.
Meanwhile, look for the increase in volume among the calls for more guns, more more more...
The GQP solution to hate & gun violence! (And adopting the Florida model of "education".)
Yathink?
Almost as horrific as #TrumpVirus himself, Vance is a #perfect shape-shifter - almost as completely 'Zellig'-like as Sir Stable Genius*.
(Psychoanalytic nomenclature for such disturbed personality has been called the "as-if" personality. Living the moment, only.]
But no doubt, in the 'mind of Trump' (genuflecting), "perfect", just like him! Great optics, great bumper sticker. So smart.
And subservient. Plus, no need to find a woman or person who can actually think critically and/or consistently. Nah... Not the Don!
"No comment at this time"... beyond, "but of course this is the #cult #TrumpVirus narrative:
Blaming the terrible violence on "fascists" who call Trump an authoritarian
#GQP #disinformation #narrative #DoubleSpeak #tribalism #evil #mythology #truth #MAGAts #delusion #cognitive
Sir #TrumpVirus - lover of qll things himself, plus #GQP hate-stirring plus #2ndAmendment - and ardent enemy of #truth, #democracy and #decency - has been shot. "No joke".
Tnx @joyce_donahue@diasp.org for the first/immediate report...
Straight from the #TrumpVirus / #GQP playbook/'mindset'. Deflect/deny. Blame them. What crisis?

#Media watching today… on the election/campaign narrative
Interesting story beyond the screaming and spinning:
Vice President Pence is the most prominent Republican to express dissatisfaction with the new proposed Republican platform.
I was curious about the rep/cred of the New York Sun (founded 2002), which has been sending me (unsolicited) daily ‘news’ dispatches of late. My impression has been (1) nice; free, no paywall (2) generally leaning towards fact (3) seemingly hewing right across the narrative. Seems I was close, according to mediabiasfactcheck.org
Today’s email headlined “‘Sad and Frustrated’ House Democrats in Disarray After Meeting on Biden’s Candidacy Fails To Reach Consensus” … Okay, there’s a basis for this, though IMM reflecting reinforcement of a meme/narrative. But not “news” for me.
This, however was/is interesting to me, found on their main page when I followed their email link. OK, will endure them for now.
Hm, wonder what VP J.D. Vance of the Trump/Vance ticket thinks? (Guessing #TrumpVirus likes the ‘optics’ of “Trump/Vance”)
I could be wrong though, as “Trump/Greene” has a certain ring (a ding ding) to it.
