haha

i think i might need that

You do, especially for the photo captions.

meanwhile, a dispatch:

Democrats are just not good at this. The circling firing squad routine is damaging everyone on the stage while leaving Donald Trump untouched. Not. Good.

*the Good Faith Arguer has entered the chat*

"this is a management job" blehhgdhlsgjhgsd

There will be time, there will be time

Stirring message there, Mike.

"i'm not asking for money" what a piece of shit. what kind of feudal peasants are impressed by this kind of thing?

Whaaaat just happened there?

protesters

"you deported 3 million people" something like that

what is this thing about the immigration bill and "provisions akin to slavery"?

ffs if you are going to protest on tv coordinate the message so it can be heard.

Yerac otm

protesters interrupting events always sound like this

such a waste of opportunity.

Lol just got a new email from Biden's campaign

"Joe just left the stage...and he was AMAZING!"

I mean when you have the Washington Generals to play you don't have to be the Globetrotters

Buttigieg and Klob seem to have their own little fight going on

They are competing to capture some of the same voter demographics. There are only so many white, middle class, moderate Democrat voters out there and they each need as many of them as possible.

"i'm not asking for money" what a piece of shit.

The really stupid thing was he didn't say, "all I'm asking is for your vote." It's like he thinks, 'I'm so stinking rich, I don't need anything from all those non-wealthy people.'

have you ever been sallow

I Am Curious (Sallow)

Biden's attempt to get in on gangbanging Bloomberg seemed like obvious bullshit, especially his 10-second switch from "You know why stop & frisk stopped? Obama sent in moderators. ...So we sent in these moderators and-- Fact-check from Daniel Dale confirms.

^ flashed back during this to the 2016 debates, wondering why there are (multiple) moderators at all if they don't challenge or correct blatant lies from the participants

OIC, you're under the mistaken impression that the moderators are there to moderate.

I understand that’s why Obama and Joe sent them in

lol

Tonight, I stood on a stage with a group of politicians.

They talked, because that’s what they’re good at.

They went on and on about what they could and should do.

I have built. I have created actual change. I have gotten it done.

That’s what I’ll do for America. #DemDebate

'fuck politicians' rails three-times-elected politician

did bloomberg just claim the us tried communism

he probably meant the New Deal

Missed the first 30 minutes because I was on the wrong station, saw the rest (and caught up with the opening). Warren was great, Biden gets worse every time. He's so eager to show he can be coherent, he yells and hectors (and ends up not being all that coherent). I feel safe and happy to apply this to a male: he's gotten unbearably shrill.

"i have built!" = big ozymandias energy

"two vast and short-arsed trunkless legs of stone"

Biden reminds me of that thing where every time an ex-president makes a public appearance and seems like a paler, frailer shade of their former self. I guess it happens to ex-veeps, as well.

that sneer of cold command in full

He looks like he's waiting for the parking garage manager to tell him what he's going to do about this scratch on his Beemer.

lol sorry i have now reminded myself of the other ozymandias poem, also very extremely pertinent

Horace Smith's "Ozymandias"

In Egypt's sandy silence, all alone,
Stands a gigantic Leg, which far off throws
The only shadow that the Desert knows:—
"I am great OZYMANDIAS," saith the stone,
"The King of Kings; this mighty City shows
The wonders of my hand."— The City's gone,—
Naught but the Leg remaining to disclose
The site of this forgotten Babylon.

NAUGHT BUT THE LEG

hey ozy, show a little leg willya

ozygamdias

Mike Bloomps Is Big leggy

If you wonder why he stands so high
Just wait til you try his apple pie
