MAUREEN CALLAHAN: Michelle Obama just dropped a clue about who will win the election. Simply follow the plain-spoken truth…
Oct. 28, 2024
After all, why else would the left-wing media call him Hitler?
Why else would MSNBC shamelessly intersperse footage of the 1939 Nazi rally at Madison Square Garden with Trump's Sunday MSG event, overflowing with middle and working-class voters — in effect, calling those voters Nazis?
Why else would the New York Times plaster the front page of its Sunday op-ed section with huge block type, font size otherwise reserved for the outbreak of world wars, to what Trump will do if he wins — including 'USE SOLDIERS AGAINST CITIZENS'?
Not to mention the furor over the refusal by both the L.A. Times and Washington Post (owned by Amazon's Jeff Bezos) to endorse either candidate, which sent the left into a tizzy of canceled subscriptions and social-media virtue-signaling.
Author Stephen King: 'After five years, I have cancelled my subscription to the Washington Post' — a statement King posted on X, which happens to be owned by another Trump-supporting billionaire. The left can't win for trying.
Yes, even WaPo — its none-too-subtle motto 'Democracy Dies in Darkness' born after Trump's 2016 victory — has perhaps rethought the stakes.
What does it say when two of America's largest left-leaning newspapers can't, or won't, endorse Kamala Harris over Trump?A man we are told is an irredeemable racist, sexist, xenophobe who poses a threat unlike any we have ever confronted?
Here's exactly what it says: Billionaire businessmen know a loser when they see one.
This weekend, Harris was the subject of a lengthy New York Times profile, informed by 100 friends and colleagues who also seemed incapable of offering a full-throated endorsement. In particular, they noted that 'she was not a gifted student' in law school, and that her 2019 presidential run 'revealed a person for whom… politics did not come naturally. She struggled to define herself ideologically.'
As she still does, a struggle that's excruciating to watch. But of course, this NYT piece, 'The World According to Kamala Harris', argued that as a woman of color, everything has been harder for Kamala Harris.
Excuse me? Let's get real: Identity politics might be the only reason this unimpressive, unintellectual Queen of Word Salad has risen far above her capabilities to potentially become president of the United States.
As Kamala would say: Let's understand how we got here.
During a 2020 presidential debate, Joe Biden got backed into promising a female running mate, and Harris — who had all but called Biden a racist during her own failed campaign — was right there, willing to forgive and forget, if not acknowledge that she never believed what she'd said in the first place.
Jill Biden has reportedly never forgiven her. Does anyone really think that she and Joe, still smarting over his forced ouster, want Harris to win?
The Bidens, the billionaire class and rational voters everywhere all know that Trump isn't going to unleash the military on U.S. citizens, or 'be a dictator on day one', or prosecute his political enemies.
Hell — Trump even said he'd consider pardoning Hunter Biden if elected!
'I wouldn't take it off the books,' Trump told radio host Hugh Hewitt last week. 'Unlike Joe Biden, despite what they've done to me, where they've gone after me so viciously… I happen to think it's very bad for our country.'
Look at that. If only the left-leaning media would amplify that message. Instead, we got Michelle Obama stumping for Harris over the weekend, remonstrating the crowd much as her husband has been unsuccessfully doing to black male voters.
'I hope you'll forgive me', Michelle said in Kalamazoo, Michigan on Saturday, 'if I'm a little frustrated that some of us are choosing to ignore Donald Trump's gross incompetence while asking Kamala to dazzle us at every turn.'
Dazzle us? At this point, we're just looking for a coherent, specific answer to any question. Just one.
But in Michelle's telling, voters who are concerned about the border crisis, rising crime, the affordable housing shortage, and a Middle East on fire just need to lower their expectations.
'We pick apart Kamala's answers from interviews that [Trump] doesn't even have the courage to do,' she continued….
