27 July—Republican forces, predictably grouping to proactively cover their unworthy and unfit presidential candidate for the sake first of their political careers and second of their disgraced and disgraceful party, have launched ferocious—but not entirely unjustified nor unjustifiable—fusillades against Kamala Harris. At the same time, the unworthy and unfit Republican presidential candidate—Donald Trump, if you need to be reminded—has, with his customary aplomb and grace, called Kamala a bum, in fact “a far-left bum.”

What else would you expect from Trump? Well, yesterday, in another one of his frequent fits of demagogic hyperbole (i.e., bullshit), the superannuated, morbidly obese narcissist and convicted felon promised a group of right-wing Christians meeting in Florida that if they elected him this year they wouldn’t have to bother voting in 2028 because the country would be “fixed so good.”

Who knows what Trump meant? Who cares? Even his supporters don’t take him seriously. Because they know (like everyone else) that he suffers from logorrhea—which in his case would better be called verbal diarrhea.

It would appear that Trump and his self-interested toadies realize that Kamala stands a better chance than anyone would have thought of sinking him in November and thus are running scared. Most encouraging. Because Harris isn’t Trump and never again is now.
