In his speech Wednesday evening, which was the Philadelphia speech, except he wasn't bathed in red (this time, he went to the House of the Homeless, Union Station, in Washington, DC), President Gumby lamented, "Our democracy is on the line!" Buzz off, you desiccated, old weirdo. What a freakshow. Have you noticed Democrats don't seem to be learning anything? They're still out there saying, "Okay, guys! We've been talking about 'Our Democracy' for months instead of the border, crime, inflation, American humiliation, perverts and racists in the schools, and it hasn't been working. What do we do? Talk about 'Our Democracy' more! Let's get President Biden out there!" I'm not sure I see the strategy. You're going through this cycle, never mentioning any of these things in your last speech before Election Day, and instead, it's, "The MAGA Republicans are fascists and want to steal our democracy!" Jeffrey Toobin had more dignity!
