The “joy” is fading in the Kamala campaign as the latest polls show that the gap is closing.
And Kamala’s biggest problem is the men. White men. Black men. Young men.
Gen Z has the largest gender gap of any age group with young men supporting Trump by margins similar to those of older men. Black men and Hispanic men have been the hardest minority groups to persuade into the Kamala camp. A New York Times article last month blamed lagging black male support for Kamala on the ‘misogynoir’ that black men were suffering from.
Why is Kamala doing so poorly among men? One hint comes from polling numbers showing that white men went from supporting Trump by 13 points before the DNC convention to 21 points afterward. “Joy”, “brat summer” and all the efforts to brand a presidential campaign like the Barbie movie backfired making Kamala into ‘Barbie’ and Trump into ‘Oppenheimer’.
It’s not just the vibe, climaxing in Oprah’s convention appearance, that’s turning off men, the vibe is a symptom of the real problem not only with the campaign, but the candidate.
Kamala is a lightweight politician running on feelings at a time when men need something more solid. The “joy” theme told votes to turn off their brains, join the party and stop worrying. TikTok dances make a certain kind of voter gush while completely alienating another kind of voter.
Having “brat summer” inflicted on you when you’re cutting back on groceries is salt in the wound. A trivial campaign is insulting to those who are suffering and falling behind on bills.
But TikTok dances are the whole reason why Kamala is here.
Swapping out Biden for Kamala wasn’t about shifting the issues, but the personalities. Despite her disavowals of most of her past views, like banning cars, health insurance and plastic straws, and the random adoption of some Trump economic proposals, the Democrat presidential ticket is still fundamentally the same on the issues as it was in May 2024. All that’s new is the vibe.
In polls, men are statistically more likely to vote on issues, and women on personal characteristics. The Kamala coup offers new personal characters, but not issues.
The DNC had no new platform. Its platform was considered so irrelevant that no one got around to editing it to remove mentions of Biden’s second term. The Kamala campaign only added an ‘issues’ section to its website days before the upcoming presidential debate. The message is that issues don’t matter, what does matter is that Kamala is like the best friend you never had.
And Trump is a mean old man.
Kamala is hardly the first politician to run on personality, not issues, but in the middle of an economic crisis, a crime crisis, and record low levels of public insecurity about the future, her glib positivity and shallow narcissism have fired up upscale liberal women while turning off men: especially working class men of all races concerned about being able to earn a living.
The 2024 convention and the campaign’s Zoom groups, like the DNC 2020 convention, felt like a party for members of the laptop class, a pep rally for a clique convinced of its specialness, rather than an address to the nation. That’s why not just white men, but many black men feel uniquely disconnected from a campaign for a woman seeking to be the second black president.
Obama branded his campaign as a larger racial and national achievement, but Kamala’s campaign, like Hillary’s, never feels like it’s about anything except her. Very few black men buy into the idea that Kamala in the White House will mean anything for them. That would be bad at the best of times, but it’s catastrophic during an economic crisis and crushing inflation.
The unhappy truth about Kamala is that she has no idea how to talk to anyone outside the upper class social strata in which she began her career. Her fake persona as everyone’s best friend was ideally suited to Nob Hill socialites but wore out its welcome in any contested election. Fortunately for her it’s been a long time since Kamala had to run for public office in a truly competitive election and never in an election that people were actually paying attention to.
Putting together her campaign like a Taylor Swift concert series created the illusion of populism. Republican ineptitude kept her opponents from being able to define her, but instead she disastrously defined herself around vacuous cheerfulness and TikTok memes.
Kamala locked in Gen Z women and locked out male voters.
Democrats and their media are busy blaming sexism, but the issue isn’t resentment of women, but a candidate and a campaign incapable of talking to voters outside of her very narrow social circle and circle of preferences. Biden’s campaign trail behavior could be bizarre, but Kamala’s is just that of a blue city shut in who can’t help condescendingly speaking to everyone else.
Kamala compensates for her inadequacies not by getting to know other people, but by accusing them of racism and sexism. Toward the end of her failing primary campaign, Kamala Harris had complained, “Is America ready for that? Are they ready for a woman of color to be President of the United States?” Whenever Kamala’s campaign hits a wall, it still brings out the same line.
Rather than considering how Kamala could better reach beyond her circle, the campaign’s political allies demean men, even black men, as bigots. Americans are not there to empower the narcissistic political ambitions of any candidate regardless of which groups she belongs to.
It’s the other way around.
Political fandom, cults of personality whose members convince themselves that they’re part of something bigger, are un-American and were rejected as evil by the Founding Fathers. Political representatives exist for the sake of people, people do not exist for the sake of politicians.
Celebrities turn people into fans by manufacturing a false sense of intimacy. Kamala acts like she’s running to be America’s best friend, not the person tasked with fixing its problems. Some have been won over by the “joy” routine, but others, especially men, are not interested in pretending that a millionaire politician who notices them every 4 years is their best friend.
Kamala’s fake smiles, fake laughs and fake friendship are turning off men of all ages and races. And there’s no joy in coconutville as “brat summer” turns to falling poll fall.
Steve58 says
You could judge the debate by style or by substance. Those who believe Harris won have, from what I’ve gathered, judged by style. Unfortunately, I believe more Americans judge the debate by style over substance, which worked previously in Trump’s favor. His more somber, sober, demeanor may not have excited those shallow viewers looking for a verbal ‘prize fighter’.
Harris’ performance had a marked dearth of substance. She avoids exposing her radical left substance ‘like the plague’. Another ‘con’ job by the kingmakers of the Demoncrat Party. They have become quite accomplished at creating a fictional candidate, replacing a lackluster, sleazy, candidate with someone much more poised, broad minded, and agreeable.
Trump won the debate on ‘substance’ hands down, a clear knockout. It is a real shame that about half the country cannot tell a blathering phony from a rational, intelligent, person.
Thanks for the excellent article, Daniel!
RAM says
The whole left/liberal/feminist shtick is losing fans. If men are in the forefront of this trend, it’s because we’re the prime hate objects of the left, No one doubts that capable, qualified women need a fair shake. DEI madness hurts them, too.
Facile phonies with bad attitude, begone!!
Robert Hagedorn says
It may be losing fans, but not fast enough.
Cat says
As a female, I can say women are so much more supple to emotional messaging, to style, to be taken in by smiling liars. Women will be less likely to form their own opinion if it might cost them friends. Why do I & some others not fit the usual mold,,IDK but I catch flack for having my own point of view, So, guys when you meet an opinionated female, don’t complain so much. We vote like you do!
Robert of Prague says
Never had a problem with smart rational women. Raised my daughter as an independent thinker & she’s as conservative as me. On her own. My mother, granny & girlfriends the same. My daughter is better in math than my late dad & me & we’re STEM guys. Gutsy too. She stood alone against her entire HS in MN during Dubya & Iraq war protests. Glad you’re on our – the right – team.
David Ray says
I’m glad you raised your daughter right.
Atikva says
Congratulations!
Annie45 says
Cat – Women are more nurturing. I also get what you’re saying.
A few years back, I worked with a woman and we had a conflict
which was escalating into an argument. Tears suddenly formed
in her eyes and she said something inane and I backed off. That’s
how it was resolved. Men would never do anything like that. After
that we were cordial to each other.
In high school, I aced chemistry. At university, I aced two chemistry
courses and twenty years later when I went back to school to
become a nurse, I aced it again. Now am I supposed to act like a
flighty fluff around men and say I couldn’t possibly master anything
Iike chemistry. Screw that. I believe that ‘if you’re too dumb to do it,
Bub, that’s your problem. Find yourself a woman more in your league’.
Now is not the time though for our own men and women to argue
about women’s rights. What’s happening to those of us who love
our freedom and our country is unbelievable. I don’t want to live in
the third world. I don’t want to be bludgeoned into submission to
people like the ghouls now in charge of America. I worry about my
loved ones all the time. What’s happening to all of us is real and it
is just terrifying.
Steven Satenstein says
At least 50% of voters are just plain stupid, they just don’t see the dangers ahead with Harris/Obama in the White House. Are we doomed? We’ll We’ll see in a couple months.
BLSinSC says
If the PAST three and a half – or really FIVE years counting the left’s assaults on PRESIDENT TRUMP – haven’t convinced people that the DEMOcrats DO NOT need to be in charge then they are indeed STUPID! You really can’t blame the DEMOcrat POLITICIANS and RABID SUPPORTERS – MENTALLY ILL PEOPLE can’t be RATIONAL about anything. BUT, you should do all you can to not allow them to harm themselves or anyone else! We need to re-establish our State Mental Hospitals and some other CRIMINALLY INSANE Facilities for the more advanced DEMOcrats!
andre says
I think it is pretty clear that the American electorate would have no problem voting for a woman of color who had common sense, care for the people of the United States, an intellect to help and protect people, rather than destroy the nation. Think Indira Ghandi or Golda Meir or Margaret Thatcher.
Lee Hawkins says
We are 55 days away from the election and she still has said nothing important or declarative. Can’t afford to vote for an empty suit.
Atikva says
Actually, it’s not what she said or could have said that matters – it’s what she has been doing since she entered politics. And the answer is: nothing, absolutely nothing in favor of the American people and everything in her and her clique’s favor. As a leader, she is a big, fat zero.
Spurwing Plover says
Real Men don’t Vote for Liberal Democrat/Globalists
Allan Goldstein says
We dislike Kamala because we don’t like holding our noses.
We don’t like “joy” because of the horrible women who go by that name.
David Sugarman says
You had one too? Very funny.
Allan Goldstein says
By the way …
Somewhere in the recesses of my childhood memory is one Hubert Humphrey, who used to call his office seeking “the politics of joy”.
My father had a comedy album by David Frye which skewered Nixon, Johnson and Humphrey.
Mo de Profit says
Two things:
1: “A New York Times article last month blamed lagging black male support for Kamala on the ‘misogynoir’ that black men were suffering from”
The NYT is clearly racist
2. Listen to the latest Gad Saad podcast and he explains the psychological reasons why the establishment is doing this.
Cat says
Didnt that empty snobby boring creep just endorse Kamala?!?!
Yeah, I read his writings & saw a video or two. He’s an empty suit.
Mo de Profit says
No, he didn’t to my knowledge. He has constantly mocked her, maybe some leftist elite has quoted him taking the piss out of her and claimed that he supported her.
sjam says
You are right.
See his parody: Why I Have Decided to Vote for Kamala Harris (THE SAAD TRUTH_1721)
Annie45 says
Maybe most men are rejecting Kamala because of their natural protective
instincts. No matter what in the great debate of men versus women, men
are the defenders and protectors of their women, children and elderly.
They’re now finding daily life harrowing and threatening – crime everywhere,
no bail, sky high cost of living, illegals, ruined cities, anti-White prevalence,
2-tier justice (Pres Trump, J6) and more. So watching Kamala’s “Can we
talk?” attitude and her coming across so sympathetic to people’s suffering
– when she and the regime are the cause of it – is enough to make any
man’s blood boil.
I despise Kamala too mostly because I’m worried and frightened. I also
feel angry when I picture Kamala at the debate so cocksure and confident
because of the full backing of the all powerful wealthy media and other
globalist Commies. Her demeaning insults to Trump were infuriating. He
is one of the greatest Presidents in American history while she – as we all
know – blew her way to the top like an invisible pollutant that continues to
destroy everything around her.
There are millions upon millions of women who love Trump and our country.
And for any man – for any reason – who is against Kamala Harris, I’m with him.
TRUMP/Vance 2024
Semaphore says
California native here. Followed her career for more than 30 years. You do NOT want her at the head of the most powerful military in the world. Just review the comments she made during the debate – platitudes without substance. She is blind ambition personified without a hint of statesmanship or philosophical ideals, a woman who “favored” her way into a political career and didn’t win a single delegate in two Dem conventions. If she wins, trust me, America loses.
Kynarion Hellenis says
Kamala is perfect for a certain kind of man for a very short period of time. Shallow, stupid, f*ckable.
Kamala’s “Can we talk?” attitude is classic female problem solving. It belongs in the home within the family – a place of nurturing, understanding and forgiveness. When these feminine strengths are put in charge of institutions and nations, destruction is sure to follow. The feminization of everything has created the globo-homo western world (Andrew Isker) bent upon civilizational suicide.
The exceptions do not make the rule invalid, but only confirm that God gives women and children to rule over nations as a sign of His displeasure and judgment. Isaiah 3: 12 – 15.
Robert of Prague says
Annie, you are a classy lady in my book. Replace your fear with determination & make sure in your circle of influence that the repulsive Que mala (love this clever & bull’s eye Hispanic nick) never comes close to the nuclear football.
Algorithmic Analyst says
Good job Daniel. An issue that’s too hot for some to touch.
Hannah Katz says
This woman cannot stand Comrade Kamala. That nasal, whiney voice is like fingernails on a blackboard as she lectures us like we are a bunch of first graders. Her Senate voting record was the furthest left, even to the left of Bernie Sanders, so I do not believe her with her move to the middle. She is further left than Che Guevarra, closer to Pol Pot of the Khmer Rouge. David is right about what is inside every progressive.
Robert of Prague says
Hannah, concur w/ you on all points. Am convinced should Que-mala win & the woke L-regressives take Co0ngress, the gulag death camps would be sprouting across the fruited plain in no time. Many our friends & my brother spent long lovely years in there. Take it you’re happily married. Allow me clean fun w/ your name. Czech is a Slavic language w/ Latin grammar; we decline nouns in 7 cases, Latin has 6. It has up to 25 varieties of diminutives/terms of endearment per name or a noun. My daughter, a Chicago native, loves it. Tell your hubby or beau to leave the shotgun alone. 😉 Here we go. Haničko, kočičko/sluníčko (č = ‘ch’ sound) means ‘sweet little Hannah, the sweet little cat/sunshine.’ You’re a smart & classy lady. Happy to have you on our – the right – team. Make sure your family & friends are too. Our very lives depend on this election.
David Ray says
Gulag death camps – maybe not, but . . .
They prefer to set-up as they did to the Jan 6th protesters.
They prefer to arrest (on painfully obvious false charges) patriots like Douglas Mackey.
They prefer to knock down the door of elderly Trump supporters at 6:am and gun them down in their bed, like the FBI did to Craig Robertson.
They prefer to unleash mobs of brown shirts to riot on the streets.
So while death camps might not evolve, per se, several Trump patriots have been killed by gov’t actors.
AOC has expressed a need for “re-education camps”, so you aren’t far off the mark.
Victor L. says
“Que-mala”
LOL! Precious!
Intrepid says
To Victor L.
Thanks for the link. Fascinating article. Well written. Mullarkey espouses what I call “muscular Christianity”
This part struck me as what we need more of:
“Pope Pius V enjoined all Christians to pray. But not for peace. He called them to pray that the Holy League would sink the Ottoman fleet in the Ionian Sea. However many rosaries were recited during the largest naval battle in Western history, Christians were not appealing for an indeterminate peace. They were pleading, heart and soul, for a concrete victory over the Ottoman Empire and a decisive halt to Muslim incursions into Europe.”
Christians need more of that today. Let’s hope we find it when we get a new Pope.
Thanks again Bro’.
The company I buy armor from has a motto:
“No King But Christ”
They even have a patch that says that to affix to plate carriers.
Kynarion Hellenis says
Agreed! I hated the voice of Bill Clinton. Then I thought the sound of Obama could not be worse. But Kamala’s voice is unbearable. EVERYTHING about it. The tone, pacing, the uhs and ums that fill the gaps between cackling and nasally intonations.
Greg says
Men hate Kamala “Heels Up” Harris because she’s a cheap piece.
Allan Goldstein says
Piece of ass or Piece of sh°t ?
Kent Rebman says
Why does it have to be an either or answer? 🙂
Gordon says
Personally, I was disappointed not to hear the absurdly bad southern black accent at the debate.
Allan Goldstein says
Dusty Springfield was the only white who ever tricked me into believing I was hearing a black soul singer.
Algorithmic Analyst says
Interesting. I could tell she wasn’t black from the start.
Mary says
I am a woman and I am looking for a leader NOT a phony socialite. “If” she was a strong proven leader like Tulsi, sure, but this bimbo is a brunch loving California mean girl and nothing more. “If” she was a true leader she would have been doing interviews and would not need a network and two moderators running cover for her.
I’m voting for that fighter that stood after being shot…a leader Trump!
Algorithmic Analyst says

Steve Chavez says
Analogy: “We all remember the schoolyard bullies. They attack all the nerds who try to reason with them. Then a new student comes to the school, and sure enough, there comes the bullies who have to see who and what he is, and yes, a nerd. They push him. He tries Reason. They punch him. Reasons with them. They kick him repeatedly and he falls. They’re laughing. He gets up and PUNCHES the main bully on the nose, now blood all over. The bully runs off crying and the playground teachers, who never penalize the bullies for their hourly attacks on nerds, help him and take him to the principal’s office. Other teachers bring his attacker, the nerd. The nerd is suspended for a week. When the nerd comes out of the building, CHEERS from hundreds. The teachers are watching this and retaliate against those students. The next day, the school newspaper prints an article on the attacking nerd: ‘TRUMP IS A BULLY!’ He comes back and is very popular, so he runs for school President, and wins. REVENGE OF THE NERDS!”
THE BULLIES JUST CAN’T STAND IT! They’ll conspire, using every department, to take him down. Hillary/FUSION/FISA/FBI/RUSSIA and then the conspiracy with DA’s, AG’s, DOJ, and the WH to coordinate indictments and even with former intelligence agents conspiring for Hunter! Then the MSM constant attacks with research on that bias with ABC having 100% positive stories on Kamala and 93% negative stories on Trump. Constant attacks = “The Accumulation Effect.” The constant attacks and people tire of him. Every day there is something new to attack him on and they LIE…. “BLOODBATH” even when proven false so millions are still repeating it. (Our local media played: “He (Trump) said that if he loses, it’s going to be a BLOODBATH!” CUT!!!) That’s implying that MAGAS are going on a killing rampage! AND… THEY GET AWAY WITH IT!
“I’m voting for the First Female President like I voted for her to be the First Female Vice-President.” I’ve been all over the net: “So with that reasoning, you voted for Sarah Palin… RIGHT?” BINGO!
Poetcomic1 says
Its platform was considered so irrelevant that no one got around to editing it to remove mentions of Biden’s second term.
When I first heard this I had to read it twice. It totally knocked me over.
TRex says
Even her puppeteers are inept. There is nothing original about her so it’s no surprise her positions are cut and paste. Well, her political ones, anyway.
Thomas E. Warwick says
A lot of women hate Donald Trump because he supposedly had a “side chick.” But Willy Brown’s Side Chick wants all these stupid, self inflated yuppie trollops to vote for her. Her entire “career” has been about whoring, fellatio, and other unspeakable acts on behalf of the Communist evil.
Zelda says
Spoke with a woman friend yesterday who is usually rational but she won’t vote Trump because he supposedly said he’d “grab a woman by the pussy”. She’s wealthy, so rising prices and open borders mean nothing to her. Must tell her about Kamala’s rise to the top by being Brown’s “girlfriend”.
Rob A says
That woman is a hypocrite! I grew up with 3 older sisters and if you think men talk dirty about women, when women talk amongst themselves about men, they’re just as crude and vulgar and sometimes worse!
Jay says
Agreed! I grew up with 4 older sisters. I overheard more than I wanted.
TruthLaser says
Kamala’s ambition and rise was a threat to honest women who wanted to hold on to their pussy grabbers.
TRex says
She’s probably head all about the “skills” that got her to where she is now. She, your friend, just chooses to ignore it. It’s just one of the symptoms of TDS.
jcr says
I have a “girl” friend. I’ve known her for forty-years.
She and her GF voted for HRC, “because it is time for a woman president.” Both are well to do. Presidential policies, positions, phoniness does not matter. Both likely will vote for Kamala. The crucial issues facing our country are not relevant. It is time for a women president.
I’ll vote for a woman too. When the one with the right policy positions comes along.
William Wallace says
I am trying to remember a candidate who is as empty as she is but not a single name comes to mind. I thought Kerry, Biden, Hillary were devoid of anything past some cliches but Kamala is simply a well dressed ensemble of nothingness
Thomas E. Warwick says
She is a husk….ox-like, limp, and leaden eyed….full of absolute evil
Allan Goldstein says
Actually, Kerry did fit that bill.
Rob A says
She’s an empty pantsuit with an empty head.
I live in California. She’s got a lot of people outside the state fooled, but we California residents aren’t. Kamala is living proof that a woman CAN f**k her way to the top.
That aside, I don’t particularly fault her for that. I mean, if that’s her chosen path to success then f**king her way to the top is certainly better than f**king her way to the bottom! Filthy whores gotta make a living too!!
TruthLaser says
The pants suit has no empress.
R Finley says
She is exact woman most men have dated…..once!
Rob A says
WHAT?? Speak for yourself pal! I have standards!
Judith2 says
Hey! No sane woman Could likr Kamala…body language tells most astute people that she is a pathological cruel and vindictive b— itch…run ladies, run away quickly!°
Semaphore says
I thought that was already established. Just ask the members of her staff that keep quitting on her.
Onzeur Trante says
I cannot imagine any real man voting for Harris based on that phony performance she gave. What was there to like about her mocking, scowling, derisory facial expressions. What man, other than a low testosterone male, would go for that in a woman vying to become president?
TRex says
Good point. Her histrionics made her look like a bad actor seeking a role in a B movie. I guess her handlers told her that would make her look like the adult in the room. ‘Uhh, Ukraine is a uhh country in Europe.’ One would think she sees herself as the kindergarten teacher for America.
H. Jones says
Ending this madness is very simple: Trump invites Harris to open news conference in the evening. She either shows up or disappears into a rabbit hole.
Russ P. says
I hope I am not too pessimistic, but the fact that this woman could get even 20% of the vote, let alone win, does not bode well for the future of our nation.
Mr Jones says
That’s a fact. We’re in serious trouble.
Chris Shugart says
I’m calling Occams’s razor on this. Simply put, men hate Kamala because she’s such a terrible candidate that she doesn’t even belong on the ballot.
Kent Rebman says
“In polls, men are statistically more likely to vote on issues, and women on personal characteristics.” I just don’t get this. The woman committed adultery repeatedly to get her political career started. It’s no debatable. That should be turning off everyone, all by itself. Why woman turn a blind eye to this, I just can’t fathom.
Jan VI says
Uh….Trump has been openly immoral in the past and bragged about cuckolding other men. (His comment about grabbing kitties should be analyzed using its exact content and context.)
That said, every citizen should do their due diligence and vote for who will be best for the country, i.e. DJT!
Atikva says
Who cares about Trump private life? – especially nowadays!
We desperately need a LEADER and we are lucky to have one worthy candidate to hold the job – the rest is irrelevant.
These hypocritical leftists are not concerned about sodomy and other kinds of unnatural sexual mores practiced by some of their politicians – they’d even brag about it. But they’d jump to dig up and expose any worthy political opponent’s marital infidelity, seemingly as shocked as an old maid of Victorian times discovering that babies are not delivered by storks. If there is one thing I hate above all others, it’s their hypocrisy.
Daniel Greenfield says
“The woman committed adultery repeatedly to get her political career started.”
How many people know that?
Allan Goldstein says
Most men in San Francisco ?
Rob A says
Most people here In California certainly know that! But if you’re a democrat, being a lying, no good, dirty lowdown skank whore is a resume enhancer.
Frank says
Thank you, Daniel. Yes, I knew that; her affair with Willie Brown was her introduction to the world of cushy jobs in politics.
The other thing that repels men from Harris is the fact that Harris is a feminist, and feminists don’t give a damn about men.
Snuffy Carter says
Willie Brown: “me me me – I know that! she was my favorite S.F. bimbo!”
rogers says
every day on this web site there is a total breakdown of reason and basic cognizance.
You accuse Harris of lacking substance, but compared to Trump? really. Mr. I have a concept and barely complete a sentence?
You accuse the Democrats of being commies, but it is Trump who coddles KGB Putin and North Korea.
who accuse the Dems of violating the principles of democracy by nominating Harris, but oddly the only president in history who refused to accept a presidential result was Trump and his minions literally put the capitol and our democracy at risk.
The truth is Harris is not a great choice but Trump is not a choice. Had the Republicans shown the good sense to retire Trump and choose DeSantis or Haley you might have an argument. Instead, you wallow in a hate culture because a tough leftist woman bested your chosen bully. Reagan is spinning in his grave. .
H. Jones says
Are you better off today than 3,5 years ag0? Simple yes or no will work.
Chris Shugart says
Like so many others like you, I have no doubt you truly believe every word of your comment. But this is not a difference of opinion nor ideology. It’s a difference of perception. And that’s where the great divide in this country exists.
Semaphore says
Tough leftist woman? LOL!! She’s so tough she has yet to hold a live press conference, without editing, or a VP candidate to hold her hand. Democracy at risk? Truth is, there were enough irregularities with the vote count in 2020 to warrant an investigation, but none was forthcoming. The “insurection” we’ve heard about for four years was a riot begun when the DC police began flash-banging and teargassing a peaceful crowd. Trump’s first term gave us a secure border, low unemployment, affordable gas and groceries, and no new wars (and no, Trump didn’t “coddle” anyone). Your TDS is sad.
Daniel Greenfield says
Actually Trump was much tougher on Putin than Biden who rushed to sign a worthless treaty with Vlad.
Look at the actual record.
Andrew Blackadder says
Hold your friends close and your enemies closer…
Trump spoke with N.Korea and Russia as is fitting for a Leader as just because I prefer America to those other two countries does not mean those two countries should bow down to America.
Planet Earth is for everybody and so speaking with each other can only be a good thing and to agree to disagree is called Diplomacy.
Mo de Profit says
It’s worrying that you actually believe that.
Rob A says
rogers:
Obviously you’re either an establishment RINO, a democrat sycophant or a covert enemy agent of a hostile country. In any case, you have no standing to judge the opinions of those in this forum. Go pester the Politico or the Drudge report or Fox News or some other MSM website where your anti-Trump screed will find a more welcoming audience.
You’re obviously an establishmentarian and thus an enemy of those who are defiant of the establishment and its “approved” institutions. Moreover, it’s a foregone conclusion that you’re going to vote for Kamala Harris so why are you here? Talk to the hand or get lost.
Atikva says
Talking about lack of “reason” and “basic cognizance’ – YOU take the cake!
Just one thing: no true American male would accept to be fraudulently ousted from any contest, and like it or not, Trump won in 2020, and the despicable Biden/Harris team entered the White House thanks to the electoral fraud of the century. You can’t blame him and a large majority of us Americans for refusing to condone this kind of national deception – and by the way, since when is electoral fraud part of the democractic system?
Since you re-opened the subject of political fraud, how about the ineligible Obama’s candidature to the presidential election, back in 2008?
DrLarry says
You are either delusional or a liar.
Trump has policy positions which don’t change. Harris will change positions based on what she thinks will get her more votes. She is currently afraid of airing her real views which are Marxist.
Trump was much tougher on Russia than either Obama or Biden (have you ever heard of Crimea or Ukraine?).
Have you ever heard of Al Gore, John Kerry or Hillary Clinton? They all challenged presidential election results.
Capitalist-Dad says
Men are repulsed because Harris represents Willie Brown’s sloppy seconds.
David Starr says
“Political representatives are exist for the sake of people, people do not exist for the sake of political representatives.” Exactly..
I’m reminded of JFK’s “Ask not what your country can do for you but what you can do for your country” and the response of the late, great economist Milton Friedman that Kennedy had it exactly backwards.
Roark says
Wake up, America 🇺🇸
Your country is under malevolent control by the DemoNazi Party. They hate you and America.
You are being replaced by foreign aliens who have nothing but contempt for America 🇺🇸
Trump is our last hope. You must vote for Trump.
The alternative leads to oblivion.
Ask yourself what kind of people instigate the invasion of hostile, contemptuous aliens into your country? Answer – TRAITORS.
Don’t be cowed. Fight, fight, fight!
johninohio1 says
I don’t know whether the founders viewed their work this way or not, but it appears that, in effect, the founding was an experiment intended to learn the degree of slavery the human psyche can tolerate. After all, it was Franklin who said to the woman, ‘you have a Republic, if you can keep it.’
I’ve always respected his courageous realism about humanity.

Cliche, platitude, and Harris’ nonsensical metaphors reveal nothing because Harris is apparently trying to hide who and what she is. $25,000 for illegal aliens while thousands of citizens are in tents and under bridges is an indication of her economics Marxist stupidity.
Government dependents, ignorant adults and naive young people like the touchy feely claptrap.
Andrew Blackadder says
I suggest everybody read a Book called Siddhartha by Hermann Hesse.
This Book of fiction is about a Buddhist Monk that encounters a Lady called Kamala.
Knowing that Kackling Kamala had a Mother from India who no doubt read this book as it is situated in India centuries ago it is rather a fitting name for the current Kamala..
Check it out.
Part two.
Robert of Prague says
Daniel, another interesting piece from your sharp quill. As one who survived the bloodthirsty claw of communism & the soviet tanks in Prague, que-mala’s fake & phony ‘joy’ raised a yuge red flag from my childhood. The commies pushed this crap of the ‘happy strong socialist mankind’ v the decadent flabby capitalist vermin during the dark ’50s & early’ 60s. The agitprop included parades, fake pep-speeches & phony pop songs while we were starving. Even as a kid I cringed. However, frowning or mocking the ‘shining tomorrows’ meant swift harsh punishment. In Kundera’s 1st novel the Joke the student got 5y of hard labor jail for writing ‘socialism is the opium of the masses’ – his girlfriend ratted him out.
Que mala is a vicious vacuous & vindictive radical feminazi. America, beware of the snakes in the grass & harpies in the shadows.
James H. says
K. Harris is an INSULT to the American people, especially the voters. Not only is she left of B. Sanders, she is a true MISANDRIST, who will blame the entire US male gender for any problems.r.. Basically she hates men and her obsession for total power rubs very wrong with the American male.
Who wants to be ‘nagged” by (as Rush) used to say a fem-Nazi!
She is RED and very dangeras.
Sir Peter says
She inherited the worst characteristics of her parents. Black IQ and Indian arrogance. Knows so little she thinks she’s a genius. In psych it’s called Dunning Kruger syndrome. And she is a whore
john blackman says
that any american , male or female would vote for dr. word salad is a complete mystery . i guess its a reflection of the shallow mindset of many americans . image over substance .
Roark says
She is a childless unmarried slut. The Party arranged a show marriage for the appearance of normality. Her husband is a radical Marxist, his ugly daughter raises money for Hamas to slaughter more Jews, and his legal firm repress the PLo!
The Red Witch must be stopped. She is being sent I. To put the final nail in American coffin.
Imagine another 50 million illegal invaders brought in to murder us all!
Moshe-Mordechai van Zuiden says
The only reason is that men are more stupid.
Old Fogey says
I continue to wonder where the joy was hiding at the Democrat convention. I saw envy, anger, greed, deception, and craving for power, but nothing resembling joy. From what I saw, the only joy was in Hades with Satan. The Democrat nominees for president and vice-president can only warm the hearts of Chairman Xi and the power brokers who keep him and other oligarchs in office. Both Harris and Walz are psychopathic liars, unaccomplished, and filled with the banality that is the hallmark of evil. That so many are indifferent to the peril posed by those two and their ilk suggests that our fellow citizens have truly turned away from the Lord. May He work in their hearts and minds to save our republic from the fate these candidates hold in store for it.
Roark says
“A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself.”
“For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.“
– Marcus Tullio Cicero
Blackgriffin says
Hey, it’s not just men who hate Kamala and her giggly, “joy” nonsense. PLENTY of women are immune to such nonsense. I just HATE these sexist takes on politics, which read as if women are special cases of fragile emotion easily manipulated and weak reasoning skills. This is offensive as hell, so knock it off.
