One oddity of American political culture is that even in an age of diversity-uber-alles, our Presidential candidates tend to come with old-time cultural markers that Americans in, say, 1960 thought were keen.
I utterly DESPISE the wretched interest that Americans take in their pseudo-democracy.
There is nothing worse than watching your brothers and sisters madly baying for their own blood.
The only relief from this backwards lust of the populace comes in the form of occasional entertainment.
A president's son filming himself arguing with a hooker over blow, washed-in-the-blood "Christians" feverishly coronating an elderly Elagabalus, or a president getting shot at.
Having occasional gladiatoral fun at the expense of the most whorish members of the nobility every 4 years is the teeny tiny circus granted a populous denied their bread, family, and dignity.
But if one MUST have a preference, mine is for Camela.
I'd previously crossed my fingers for an RFK coronation on the argument that brtween him and The Worm we'd have a complete Kennedy in the Lincoln Bedroom.
“Now we are faced with the fact that the very same people who last month insisted that Biden was at the top of his game have now shoved him into some Delaware basement and are sporting “Harris ’24” sweatshirts. How are we supposed to believe anything they say?”
"The Democratic Party as ‘apparatus’ and as Regime-party; a reflection on how power works in the USA, one day after the anti-Biden palace-coup succeeds"
What makes you so sure DJT will lose to "Kamala"?

But now, a cum from behind Camela win seems like this great circus country's best chance for a little entertainment.
So, while I don't like my odds, come election day, I'll be drinking two humps worth of camel. Amen.

You can't kill false gods. You can only show the herd that they can be safely mocked.
Alpha cackle alpha.

Kamala has received the majority of delegates. She’s closing in. She’s held her first campaign event.

coups work fast
Really, not even 36 hours.
This is no surprise; everyone received their marching orders. Despite its name the Democratic Party has a very top-down autocratic structure.
