"Boston Strong!" And sane too, it seems, booing JD Vance at a Firefighters' Union (IAFF) Speech

J.D. Vance Booed by Entire Crowd During Dumpster Fire Speech

Vance was brutally burned during a campaign stop, ironically at a firefighters’ union conference.

Like his hero, Sir #TrumpVirus, this fellow shape-shifting creature once again revealed his lack of soul, and abundance of #weird.
Lowlights included the usual stilted #GQP #disinformation, citing statistics leaving out Boston, and awkwardness speaking 'human'.

The article notes both the loud booing, his feeble efforts to seduce the crowd, and his inability to think/talk/live off-script.
For me a bit of context & "contrast/compare": I caught highlights of the same audience being addressed the day before by Tim Walz - a lot of love & respect there for him, and he hit all the right notes on labor and service, and even noted the firefighting tradition in Kamala Harris' family. I'd say Walz hit a near-perfect 10 (as he does) while the #VanceVirus stench the next day was foul & fetid.

J.D. Vance Can’t Tell a Joke to Save His Life. There’s a Reason Why.

"Vance’s quips are all drawn from the same well of barely concealed resentment." Excellent article explaining the reasons behind #JDVance's profound humor deficit and why his "jokes" don't work:

Raskin live 2 minutes ago, just called #JDVance the "pet chameleon" of Sir #TrumpVirus... 'perfect, really'.

I've been amazed at the #GQP shape-shifters in the #cult (like Lindsey, Haley et al)... but Vance is a chip off the old blok. Yeah, #chameleon

More #truth - Lots of it here tonight.
Raskin was wonderful. Everyone is. Sanity & joy! 👍

And also a jerker story (hers) as a survivor...
"Freedom" and rights...

Andy Beshear on now aiming at Trump/Vance vs. freedom, and now (as I type) a pitch for morality, and values, vs. 'anger politics'

Good speeches, important aims. Wonder if #DonOld is watching - probably too busy #truth - ing opposite-speak and #WordSalad

What a difference 3 weeks makes!
Both for regular viewers who count on our late-night debriefing-with-laughs, & for him after 3 weeks, it's a very different landscape.

And for anyone deep into summer beaches or mountain trails or whatever... having dropped out for the past month or so. Hello!

Sunday Edition :))

Rule # 1
#Truth = #DonOld #TrumpVIrus’ Kryptonite

Skimming the Sunday news buzz, there’s one HUGE story bubbling up now, the news yesterday and reactions today:

Trump’s 271-Page Dossier of JD Vance’s ‘Vulnerabilities’ Hacked by Iran

Remember the public and loud, lusty call from Dark Lord to hack and release incriminating Hillary emails?
“Russia, if you’re listening…”

Well, it turns out that - reported in a twist of #Karma by Lord Stable Genius himself - there was some new foreign-agent hacking going on, and this time its emails of #JDVance - suggesting something “big, really big” is in there, and this time Donald “thinks” differently.

Because Sir #TrumpVirus is now begging the (“fake” = #truth ) MSM not to report out any of the now-leaked memos.
Hm… how big could that blow up, if we #FollowTheMoney and smell from Vance up to the big boys?!

And why does Vance matter? Who picked him? Oh… So if the VP’s in the race don’t matter, what could go wrong?

Just saying… No time to dig more into the Interwebs now… that story reported by CNN and others across the #media spectrum.

Main Idea in a few reports (along with headlines like "Trump's Brain Explding)... the kind version:

A growing sense that “Trump is beginning to feel vulnerable.”

Ya think? Poor him. So unfair!

Meanwhile, this is an actual statement from Celine Dion:

"Today, Celine Dion's management team and her record label, Sony Music Entertainment Canada Inc., became aware of the unauthorized usage of the video, recording, musical performance, and likeness of Celine Dion singing 'My Heart Will Go On' at a Donald #Trump / #JDVance campaign rally in Montana.
 
"In no way is this use authorized, and Celine Dion does not endorse this or any similar use.
 
"…And really, THAT song?"

JD Vance’s Wife: My Husband Only Meant to Insult People Who Actively Choose Not to Have Kids, Not People Who Are Trying but Are Unsuccessful | Vanity Fair

Archive: https://archive.is/5jUbz

Usha Vance took a stab at defending JD Vance’s “childless cat ladies” remark on Monday, saying in an interview that her husband—who has also said people without kids are more likely to be mentally unstable sociopaths—would never want to hurt people trying to have kids. The problem’s just the heathens who actively choose not to have them, you see!
