But her allergies
Today ends in a "Y" and that means it's time to see how much lower our society has descended since yesterday.
Lara Trump also promotes a website called Globalist Slut, which specializes in fascist porn and fake images of Democrats.
Bloomberg decided it should participate in Trump's appearance at the Economic Club of Chicago. When everyone else in the office refused, editor in chief John Micklethwait had to go himself. It was better than the Pennsylvania dance party in that nobody passed out. He asked about breaking up Google. Trump launched into a lament about the Justice Department reversing a purge of voters in Virginia. He observed that the Wall Street Journal disparaged a Trump proposal to hand out $15 trillion in car loans. Trump explained, "You've been wrong all your life on this stuff." Micklethwait asked about the peaceful transfer of power. Trump replied by attacking him as "not a big Trump fan over the years" and rambled on and on about stolen elections, climaxing with "shot in the head" Ashli Babbitt. He displayed a continued inability to understand tariffs and went on to disparage auto workers ("we could have our child do it"). Apparently they just take the parts out of a box. He told a yarn about a cabinet maker who thanked him for saving his business through tariffs and yes, the man cried. Was there an unhinged rant about migrants? Of course, because Micklethwait asked about labor shortages. Trump will deport all the evil murderous migrants and import those who "will love our country" and not want to kill everyone. "For the record, as you know, the crime rate is lower," Micklethwait interjected before giving up, probably making a mental note to explore a new career with Amway.
Hundreds of doctors signed an open letter calling Trump's behavior "deeply concerning" and requesting that he release his medical records. Predictably, he responded by describing Kamala Harris as unfit due to "deeply serious conditions that clearly impact her functioning." She has seasonal allergies. His cholesterol is "flawless," he aced every cognitive exam and he's much too busy. Also his records are still being audited by the IRS. (Flash back to 2016, when the Trump-adjacent National Enquirer ran doctored photos of Hillary Clinton to prove she was near death.) Pitiful.
"I'm the father of IVF." Who said it? Come on. Trump needed smooches and strokes to make him forget mean Mr. Micklethwait and Harris Faulkner threw him a party with non-militant, non-mouthy women who love how he promises to protect them. "We want fertilization and it's all the way and the Democrats tried to attack us on it and we're out there on IVF, even more than them." Clear? In vitro fertilization was first performed in 1978 when Trump was groping women at Studio 54 and squandering Fred's fortune, so I don't know when he found the time. Anyway, it's all bollocks.
For Faulkner's audience the big issue is "biological men and boys competing against women and girls in sports," believe it or not. Trump's solution? "You just ban it. President bans it, you just don't let it happen." Which is his solution to most things, as fans of his "executive order" regime will recall. He's not unhinged, everyone else is unhinged. And sick.
Uh-oh. Trump's October 7 visit to the grave of Rebbe Menachem Schneerson has disturbed some of his neo-Nazi supporters, who have begun referring to him as "Zion Don." One former enthusiast suggests he "pray to your satanic faggot rabbi bitch," while another hints that he converted to Judaism in 2017. They came for the xenophobia but they're not staying for the Likud-pandering. It's hard out here for a racist.
Trump doesn't have time for Sixty Minutes or a call to authorize release of medical records, but he had time to drop by a podcast called "Bussin' With the Boys" where guys talk sports and other alpha-male-type stuff. There he explained that although he played tight end at a school that didn't have a football team, "I didn't particularly like some guy who was lifting weights all day long and came from a bad neighborhood and he sees me...they were tackling hard." So he switched to a sport where you keep your own score and wear little gloves and the only people of color at the country club are carrying your bag.
Save the date. Sunday October 20 Trump will visit an undisclosed McDonalds somewhere in Pennsylvania and "work the fry cooker," which will somehow prove that Kamala Harris never had a part-time job with the restaurant chain. Be there, will be weird.
A dozen artists or their estates are suing the Trump campaign to end use of their songs, but no one is as angry as Rufus Wainwright. Calling "Hallelujah" "an anthem to peace, love and acceptance of the truth," he denounced Trump's use of the Leonard Cohen song as "the height of blasphemy." Wainwright hoped it would give him "a hint of remorse over what he's caused." Musicians are such optimists.
In a surprisingly tight race in Texas, Ted Cruz ran into a buzzsaw as he debated Rep. Colin Allred. Allred, who was also present during the January 6 coup, called Cruz "a threat to democracy" while his opponent mostly giggled. Among other things, Allred attacked his support of the "personhood" amendment which would abolish IVF, despite Trump being its father (so to speak). DNC take note: Allred has some razor-sharp writers. "He wants you thinking about kids in bathrooms so you're not thinking about women in hospitals."
Tim Sheehy is running for the Senate in Montana and he's a classic low-information MAGAt. He wants to abolish the Department of Education because it was formed "so little Black girls could go to school down South and we could have integrated schooling. We don't need that anymore." (Not clear if he meant the department or integrated schools.) The DoE was instituted in 1979, twenty-five years after Brown v. Board of Education, but thanks for playing, Tim. Tim? Do you love the poorly educated?
