Swamp Example
Nov 4th, 2024 at 2:56pm
 
Stanley McChrystal, a retired Army general once dubbed “the finest warrior” in the U.S. military, has endorsed Kamala Harris for president.

McChrystal, who oversaw the Afghanistan war during the Obama administration, wrote in a New York Times op-ed on Thursday that the decision was “starkly simple.”

“Ms. Harris has the strength, the temperament and, importantly, the values to serve as commander in chief,” the retired general wrote. “When she sits down with world leaders like President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine, representing the United States on the global stage, I have no doubt that she is working in our national interest, not her own.”

Kamala laughs infectiously and the comic appreciates that.
Isn't it perfect foreign policy?

perfect foreign policy is to be a loose cannon and a bit of a madman,
the chinese in particular hate trumps unpredictability.

As did we all.

Turns out it's aquascoot just spreading a little truth for a change:

“Ms. Harris has the strength, the temperament and, importantly, the values to serve as commander in chief,” the retired general wrote. “When she sits down with world leaders like President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine, representing the United States on the global stage, I have no doubt that she is working in our national interest, not her own.”

Kamala Harris is a war criminal.

50,000 tons of US bombs dropped on women and children in Gaza.

Joe, Kamala and Bibi join others in history who signed genocide orders:

No no, it's about a certain "noble Alpha" once endorsed by Aquascoot himself, back in his RINO Never-Trumper period before Desanctis.

Aquascoot may have forgotten. You get that, no?

Nobody takes Harris seriously. Like Biden but without the 40 years in the Senate, she is simply the non-Trump. .She is essentially an empty, unserious nobody, a front.

It is telling and deeply disturbing that the deeply cynical and corrupt US political machine is unable to bring anyone better than her or Biden to present as an alternative to Trump.

Trump is the challenge to the sick and cynical Uniparty where the Quad, AOC, the Obamas,  Chaneys, Clintons and Schwarzeneggers are all in the same Harris camp.

Trump is a rapist and convicted criminal who stole money from charities, incited an insurrection, buried his wife on a golf course, was best friends with a convicted child sex offender, and repeated numerous times that he wanted to screw his own daughter.

You?

Just so, dear boy. I think you've got it. Karmala's not he.

She does, of course, have other benefits. She's a centrist, she's a rule-of-law-ist, she's a she, and oh -

She's tinted. That's should be good for a giggle, no?

Yes, we do love your meltdowns and tempie tants. Like the Kenyan, she triggers you ever so.

If Karmala gets in, the White House will stink of Curry, and do you know?

There's not a single thing you'll be able to do about it.

Oh, what a luverly bunch of coconuts, no?
