I tried to watch the circus that was the two-night Democratic Debate, but I couldn’t take more than 30 minutes of the stupidity of the first night, and while the second night was more entertaining, it was nothing more than virtue signaling on a grand scale.
I don’t remember much of the first night’s spectacle. There really wasn’t anyone on stage that I wanted to hear from, with the exception of Tulsi Gabbard, who only got the shortest of time to speak. The next day, I saw the sound bite of one of the no-name candidates saying that abortion rights should be extended to trans women. I have nothing against transgendered people. I’ve had trans women housemates, and I have an aunt who used to be my uncle. I think I know something about transgendered people.
One thing I am sure of, is that it is biologically impossible for trans women to get pregnant. Womb transplant is not currently part of the reconstructive surgery they go through in order to present as female. Still, from the cheers, it seemed to play well with the audience. I would really love to see Julián Castro, explain his stance on that.
Both nights were nothing more than posturing for who could be the most Progressive candidate. Even Sleepy (or is it Creepy?) Joe Biden, said that he would give free healthcare to those who illegally cross the border. On the second night, Andrew Yang had his mic muted during the debate, so that no one off the stage could hear him as he tried to break into the conversation.
The DNC already has their candidate chosen, just like they did in 2016. That candidate is Joe Biden. It’s interesting then, that the candidate most searched for on Google, after the debate, is Tulsi Gabbard. Marianne Williamson was the most searched, after the second night. The American public isn’t interested in hearing from Joe Biden, or even Bernie Saunders. We already know their positions.
I’m not a Democrat. Nor am I a Republican, but I want to hear what all the candidates have to say. That is how Democracy works. Unfortunately, the DNC has other plans, and those plans leave no room for an upstart candidate, who could at least give Donald Trump a run for his money. No, the DNC is going with the man they expect Former President Obama, will endorse. Unless of course, he continues to creepily grope people. In that case, I expect they would switch to Kamala Harris. As a woman of color, she ticks more virtue boxes than Biden.
While all this bickering was going on at the Democratic Debate, President Trump bought the YouTube banner heading to advertise during the first night. More people saw the Trump advertisement during the debate, than heard the virtue signaling of the Democrats. This all happened while President Trump was winging his way to Japan, for the G20 Summit. That’s called efficient use of resources.
President Trump tweeted after the night of debate, that the Democrats had just handed him the election victory. I’m not a Trump supporter, but he’s right. The Moderate Left, which makes up the majority of Democrats in this country, don’t want to hear how their healthcare insurance is going to be taken away, or that they will be footing the bill for illegal immigrants to get free healthcare. They want to know how the Democrats are going to put more money in their pockets.
What they heard was, how the Democrats are going to tax them even more, to give them (and everyone else in the world) Free Stuff.
