The Torricelli switcheroo

Federalist: "Can Democrats Just Dump Biden And Move On? It’s Not That Simple."

Mostly because of Kamala.

John Fetterman:

"I refuse to join the Democratic vultures on Biden’s shoulder after the debate.

No one knows more than me that a rough debate is not the sum total of the person and their record. Morning-after thermonuclear beatdowns of my race from the debate, and polling geniuses like 538 predicted I’d lose by 2.

And what happened?

The only seat to flip and won by a historic margin (+5).

Chill the f-ck out."



Except Senator Fetterman didn't hyphenate "f-ck."

Just keep saying "But Fetterman!" enough and everything will be fine.

Imagine if Republicans worried even 1/20th as much about their self-debasement to a convicted criminal infatuated with hostile foreign dictators as Democrats worry that their candidate may be too old.

Not, "We have the best candidate, savvy and skilled in both domestic and world affairs. Able to go toe to toe with world leaders and leading politicians at home. With the wisdom of experience, his age is an asset."

But, "Basket-case Fetterman is our model for how Biden can still win."

Oh, how the haughty have fallen.

Gosh, not a word to say about Republican self-debasement to a convicted criminal infatuated with hostile foreign dictators.

Trump's approach to Putin and Orban and Kim Jong Un isn't toe to toe. It's ass to mouth.

As for our model for how Biden can still win, it's stolen elections, silly! Hasn't that belief replaced the Lord's Prayer in MAGA citadels?

And clearly, the haughty don't like the fact that they've fallen.

Ass. To mouth. You know the feeling.


The BBC's headline was "Biden falters in debate while Trump ducks key questions."

ABC News' headline was "Biden falters in high-stakes debate, Trump spews falsehoods."

The Guardian's headline was "Biden's poor performance and Trump's lies."

The Associated Press headline was "Debate takeaways: Trump confident, even when wrong, Biden halting, even with facts on his side.”

The Haughty Times headline was "Fetterman-on-steroids debate performance by Biden boosts his election chances, source says."

Obviously Fetterman's win shocked you guys, but I didn't know Fetterman hurt you this much.

I'm sorry...you're saying Fetterman hurt us......?

My mistake. In actuality, Republicans popped their best champagne when the debilitated Fetterman won, because they understood his victory was a great inspiration for the disabled.
