Miller appeared on Fox News on Sunday, where he went off on a rant about the Democratic votes were thrown away as the party rallies around Vice President Kamala Harris.
“They held a primary. They had ballots. They filled out circles!” Miller shouted on Fox News. “They went to the voting booths. They spent money on advertisements!”
Still yelling, Miller says that Republicans also spent money running against Biden.
That’s because they had their whole “old man bad” thing planned out for the next 4 months.
Nazi rhetoric falls apart when you take away the boogie man. No sleepy Joe, no laptop or emails or some bullshit. They have to come up with something new. He is scared, because they are incapable of talking about actual issues.
More than that, as fucking tepid a choice as Kamala Harris is to me, I have almost no doubt in my mind she can kick Donald’s ass at a debate. She is an older, half-african-american-half-asian-american woman – yeah, my money says she can both out-sass and out-maneuver him. That’s gonna be a show worth watching (and the entire country will be) so be ready for September 10th. We gon’ see some shit.
That’s assuming the debate actually happens… I think it’s more likely than not that Trump will try to weasel out of a debate with Harris — probably blaming some bullshit concerns about venue security or something like that in order to milk his shooting for all it’s worth.
This is exactly what i expect will happen, right down to the security concerns
I agree, but I think he’ll try to lay the blame on the Democrats while doing so.
“Oww! My ear spurs! From where I took that bullet for America and stuff, y’all! I better skip the debate. Doctor’s orders!”
I wonder how long Trump’s going to wear the ear bandage for. It’s be hilarious if he never took it off.
There’s never going to be a debate.
No chance he backs out of the debate. He loves the audience, knows backing out would look weak, and he’s not going to have the polling lead he’d have had against Biden.
Trump is dodging that debate harder than he dodged fatherly duties while Melania was pregnant with Barron.
Eh, they have a file on everyone, it’s not like there’s noting they can use to criticise Harris with. They’ll probably reuse half the Obama playbook as well (birth certificate, use a dark filter on all images of her, something about terrorist parents, …). I have no doubts they can start spreading a bunch of fresh lies between now and November.
Yeah I don’t know what the other guys talking about as if they don’t have a fucking gun in their bullet for this one? The party built around sexism and racism won’t have a attack angle and a black woman?
I wouldn’t be surprised if they started calling her a “crooked cop” or something. Based on the same zero evidence they’ve given for calling Joe crooked.
I’ve started to see birther rumblings though idk if that one will get traction
Well, there goes the Hunter Biden thing.
I think his is more angry that he is seeing his opportunity to oppress minorities start to slip away.
Little skeevy bald Nazi man is sad.
🎻here’s a tiny violin for little skeevy bald Nazi man.
He really does have that skibidi Ohio rizz
Edit: guys, that’s an insult
I’ve been very much thinking that Biden had the best chance to win, mostly due to name recognition, and that switching candidates would be a bad idea because there isn’t a lot of time left for campaigning. I didn’t think Joe was necessarily the best person to be president (given the options), but I did think he had the most exposure and was most likely to collect votes.
But I didn’t really consider that switching candidates might seriously upset the Republican campaigning strategy. This could work. As long as the Democrats line up behind Kamala and don’t fragment, this risk might pay off.
I’m tickled pink! All 50 Democratic party chairs endorse Harris already. ActBlue got $47 million today in just 7 hours from Biden stepping out. The world looks a little brighter when Steven Miller doesn’t get his way.
The democrats should’ve had a real primary with actual debates. That would’ve exposed the Biden situation way earlier and would’ve given the eventual candidate a democratic mandate. Biden dropping out now isn’t ideal, but now is better than later, it was only going to get worse.
The ideal scenario would’ve been for Biden to keep his word about him being a transitional candidate that would step aside after one term.
I don’t know if that as a theory works out in practice. You never primary a sitting first term President. It would arguably have looked worse if he walked away after one. It would look like the Dems don’t take the office seriously. This way he’s been forced out, which shows how seriously he and the party have wanted to win this one.
This pivot has caught the GOP on the hop, their strategy in its entirety is ad-hominem attacks on Biden. They’ve lost the one play they had as evidenced by Stephen Miller’s melting down on tv on behalf of Dem primary voters (of all people) I’m not certain if Dems had opened the floor to candidates, or even if they’d straight up put Harris at the top of the ticket at the outset, that we’d be feeling as positive and hopeful as the donor base clearly is today. Is America ready to elect its first woman of color President? I’d say we’re closer today than any day in history. 10-12 months of media and bigots doing their thing to angry up the blood and sell airtime to advertisers would have made Hillary’s run look like a picnic at the park. Not to mention the anuswrinkle’s circus and his flying monkeys throwing their own faeces about wherever they go. The primary voters in ‘16 were so pissy about not getting their pick (feel the Bern and co.) there was never united support behind Hillary and in doing so that lack of unity handed anuswrinkle his throne for 4 years.
Sadly I think VP Harris is in for a particularly nasty barrage of that vitriolic, insecure, and ignorant shitshow, but it’s going to be an abridged version. There are only so many minutes and so many column inches between now and November, I think time is on her side.
This happening at such a late date has forced party unity out of necessity. There is no time to complain about the what ifs. The whole party machine has to pivot and consolidate in a sprint for the next 3 months - they’re too busy to do anything but rally. The party operatives are all “in the trenches” together now and this may very well turn out to be the best of all possible timelines for 2024.
I don’t know if that as a theory works out in practice. You never primary a sitting first term President. It would arguably have looked worse if he walked away after one. It would look like the Dems don’t take the office seriously.
What the fuck do I have to do around here to find somebody who “won’t take the office seriously” like that? Resurrect the Federalist Party?
A Cincinnatus/George Washington mentality is exactly what I want in an executive!
Yeah, I hate this rhetoric in general of “this is how it has to be done, we never deviate from the way we’ve always done it”.
Cause the status quo has just been great, hasn’t it everyone? What “worked” in all previous instances of less than 50 presidencies over the span of almost 250 years will surely continue to work in every context of the modern and future eras. Surely.
The ideal scenario would’ve been for Biden to keep his word about him being a transitional candidate that would step aside after one term.
He didn’t really promise per se. He said in some interviews that he saw himself as a bridge candidate, but he never made a pledge. I assume he was trying to not make himself a lame duck president right out of the gate, which can make it difficult to pass policies.
And I didn’t take that to mean one term. Did he say one term? I took it to mean he wanted to see younger people getting into politics and specifically the presidency after him. That he wanted to pave the way for younger candidates and didn’t want to see old guys like himself in office anymore.

This is what he was ‘privately signalling’ before he was elected.
“If Biden is elected,” a prominent adviser to the campaign said, “he’s going to be 82 years old in four years and he won’t be running for reelection.”
Sure, he didn’t pledge it, but his campaign made it clear this was the plan and it’s not like any of the age concerns were new if they were talking about them before he was even elected the first time.
But then again, they successfully gaslit everyone about this thing, same as the $2000 check if Warnock and Ossof got elected that turned into a $1400 check (or was it 1200?).
Well, you know, if you guys had spent that money talking about how you were going to “make America great again” instead of on slinging mud at Joe Biden, none of it would have been wasted and you’d be ahead of the curve, wouldn’t you? Maybe instead of crying like a little bitch, you start figuring out how you’re going to sell your miserable agenda to the American people?
They are trying very hard not to mention Project 2025 (bullet points). They’re even saying they won’t really do that stuff… while standing with the authors. They know most Americans are against their stuff, so they talk about anything OTHER than their plan to: eliminate the Department of Education, cut and overhaul Medicaid, roll back the recent law banning surprise medical billing, and revoke FDA approval of the abortion pill mifepristone, and so many other horrible things. Instead, they’re gonna mispronounce Kamala’s name and make fun of her laugh.
Wouldn’t it be cool if both our political parties had ambitious plans for the future?
On the contrary, the GOP is trying its best to hid its Agenda 47/Project 2025.
“I do not endorse the large, comprehensive document that many of my current and former staffers were involved in writing. Now let’s get back to defeating Sleepy Joe Biden.” - Trump
This sounds like they slept on oppo research and message testing for anyone but Biden and now they realize they’re at square one.
Is this not just a continuation of the same old plan to characterize everything Democrats do as cheating so they get to say the election was stolen again?
That messaging works to keep their base engaged but capturing low-information swing voters is a bit trickier.
Maybe it doesn’t matter when you don’t care about the results of the election anyway?
Every Republican accusation is an admission.
They’re going to recycle the same bullshit talking points anyway. They don’t need research
Now is a good time to test the candidates on mental acuity, and ability to put together coherent sentences.
Let’s also do some drug testing while we’re at it.
God, let’s hope so! I can’t wait for “Sleepy Kamala is so old, she’s senile! Her golf game is terrible! Her son has nudes on a laptop!”
Modern conservative malice is matched only by modern conservative ineptitude.
There isn’t a way to reject all facts and data about the world you don’t like and still remain competent. You can’t send someone to the moon by rage tweeting that NASA shouldn’t exist and then building a giant slingshot because it feels like the right way to do it.
That’s why they always change the measure of success to just hurting The Other. It’s cheap and easier than solving problems.
Tell me you don’t have a platform that people will vote for without telling me that you don’t have a platform that people will vote for.
They were running against Biden, not on their policy objectives other than racist and nationalist dog whistles
Every Who down in Who-ville, the tall and the small,
Was singing! Without any presents at all!
He HADN’T stopped Christmas from coming! IT CAME!
Somehow or other, it came just the same!
And the Grinch, with his grinch-feet ice-cold in the snow,
Stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so?
'It came without ribbons! It came without tags!
It came without packages, boxes or bags!’
No he is not
Good
To be perfectly honest, I’d be quite amused if Stephen Miller was not ok.
Delighted, even
Sorry. If anything other then non-committed vote happened during these “primaries” I would have been there. Also, fuck you you can’t force someone to run you god damn idiot.
you can’t force someone to run you god damn idiot
it takes some serious kompromat to pull that off
Goebbels is mad.
He helped author Project 2025, as well as run Trump’s whole immigration and deportation system. He would have made such a Nazi, you can just see it in him.
Hopefully all this stress gives him a stroke!
My obligatory “I Went To The Same High School In The Same Year As That Prick”. -_-
Didn’t really know him though. My dad mostly likes to rub it in like salt in a wound.
He’s not your cross to bear. I can’t be responsible for the insufferable pricks in my cohort, that’s for sure.
Hey man, Ivanka was in my freshman english class, and I’m not taking any responsibility for that shit-show.
Guys like Miller can’t understand the idea of self-sacrifice if there’s no money or personal gain to be had, later. He’s frustrated because he can’t figure out the “angle” and it’s no more complicated than for the good of the nation. And that’s a completely alien idea to him.
