It became clear to your correspondent that the new media to which he is addicted could not correctly call the US presidential election. The descriptions of Trump exaggerated his physical frailty: on one podcast the hosts said he had faltered—almost fallen—during one of his stunts, but the video showed barely a wobble. His rally attendees were described as bored, which surely they were, as his speechifying has become indescribably erratic and often slurred. But that is a separate matter than whether or not they would turn out to vote for him. A post-election episode of The New Yorker’s political podcast referred to Trump’s victory having being expected, but they had not stated this expectation, though admittedly the tone of their pre-election episodes was certainly approaching the apocalyptic. In short, it was not at all the case that podcasts of the Liberal Right were expecting a Trump victory. These people made their life harder by allowing themselves to be blinded as to what would happen, adding actual shock to the terror provoked by his win.
But let us focus for now on the other half of the Democratic-Republican Party: Harris. Who? Yes she has sunk back into obscurity now, three weeks later, living out her long slow days as…Vice President of a Superpower. Now here it was clear all along that the podcasters were wishcasting. What an extraordinary set of circumstances: the White House wanted to run a cadaver against Trump, then waited catastrophically late to give in, then anointed Harris—who must deserve some credit for manoeuvring herself into place extraordinarily quickly, showing more political abilities than she had ever shown previously or would ever show—but who had evidently been sitting around colluding in the absurd circumstances whereby there was (and still is) no functioning President.
Then the Liberal Right fell in line behind her. Of course she looks the part, only a rank misogynist or racist would think otherwise. But despite being able to speak in recognisable sentences in a way that Biden or Trump cannot, she shares with them the phenomenon of a grating voice, which sounds somewhat lazy and uncertain, although in this writer’s opinion it improves the more stentorian she gets.
Commentators spoke repeatedly of her being new, and having to introduce herself to America, after almost four years as part of the Biden regime. What does it say that she remained a cipher after years in the White House? The one (non-zionist) issue she appeared to be committed to was Abortion, but even there the plan was not to ensure access to Reproductive Healthcare; after all, if there was something to be done, would she not have done it after four years in Power? No, the idea was to mobilise people around the cause, the word Abortion, not to actually do anything to help women.
It is well-accepted that she shied away from interviews that would show her weaknesses. She was always wooden, unprepared for obvious questions. Four years in office and she has not a single idea for anything she would have done differently than her boss. Her answers on the genocide she is committing in Palestine, with side-massacres in Lebanon and elsewhere, were abysmal. There was surely a way for her to answer questions in sentences that at least parsed correctly, even if they were bloodthirsty, but she served word salad repeatedly instead. Likewise, asked about the victims of genocide, she referred to the much smaller number of settler colonists killed in the uprising in October last year, happily repeating lies about that day. A year on, and the zionists are still having repeat obvious, proven untruths; as Macdara has previously written, they delight in having their supporters express ever more absurd opinions, the greater to demonstrate their support for fascism in its zionist form. In fact when asked about the US’s main enemy, she gave the extraordinary response of Iran, answering the question as a zionist and not actually as an American, let alone an American office-holder.
