Sorry, old Joe. Your rambling apology to good and patriotic Americans fell flat with me! It’s not about loving your country anymore, stupid old man! It’s about hating American voters who are brainless, evil, and insane fascists, idiots who voted for a convicted felon, pervert, twice impeached, six times bankrupted, and failed coup leader. How damned unpatriotic can these so-called Americans get?
And Joe, you have no right to lecture anyone! You’re responsible for a lot of what’s occurred. In your demented arrogance, you didn’t keep your one-term promise until it was too late, leaving poor Kamala with an impossible task in the short time she had (or anyone else had) to save America.
Your legacy, Joe, isn’t that you’re the only one who could beat Trump! It will be that you will have destroyed American democracy by creating a situation where no one else could beat Donald Jackass Trump after you finally admitted you were too old to run a presidential campaign, something many people told you even before you announced that you’d run again. What fucking arrogance and egotism!
No additional evidence is required to see the need for age limits than what you’ve allowed to occur here in America, Joe! Kamala was and is now blamed for your failures and was never lauded for helping you in your many now forgotten successes. That’s no legacy, Joe; that’s a political indictment of an old man and his arrogance and ineptitude!
Of course, you’re only the tip of the iceberg that’s the entire Democratic Party’s communication problems. A political party’s leaders have to be good salespeople who get their clients excited by reminding them not only of past successes but also of great future plans that will make their lives better. Not enough was done either way in this election. Even blue New Jersey almost went for the jackass, showing the Dems’ failed messaging in spades.
A failure to communicate is disastrous. Perception is reality, and if the voters perceive that the Democratic Party doesn’t know what the hell it’s doing, the message, no matter how good it might be in content, becomes lost in the fog of political warfare in today’s complicated media outlets. It’s a noisy environment to begin with now, so Dems must learn to improve their signal-to-noise ratio in all sectors if they don’t want another landslide to occur, which is what happened in this last election.
Perhaps you can help fix things, Joe, in the time remaining to you, assuming you have the energy? Fascism is a big brick wall now. We can’t pretend it’s not there and just jump over it because it’s too tall. And Dems won’t be able to break it down if they can’t create a consistent anti-fascist message! We all know what fascism’s message is. How do true patriots answer that? It’s simple in theory: Look to Lady Liberty’s torchlight that shines across NYC’s harbor and cry, “Rage, rage, at the dying of the light!” (Apologies to Dylan Thomas.) That light of democracy’s hope and promise shined brightly for those coming through Ellis Island. We must keep it shining! Can you help do that, Joe? Can all patriotic Americans join in (they’re certainly not in the majority now)? It’s worth fighting for. We did it in the American Revolution. We won that fight in the Civil War. It’s time to do it again!
Fuck the damned fascists who think they’re now in charge, enabled by Donald Jackass Trump to destroy democracy and our country! Let’s save America!
