Who Are These Ciphers?

 

They don't even bother to campaign.

La Malinche

And why would they?

Because the result is fixed. But the question is, fixed towards whom. Maybe that's up for debate, wewait with bated breath, or not. Game of Thrones, anyone? As always...

The Great Debate Disaster

 

Did you watch last night's debate? Peggy Noonan described it as a "total and unmitigated disaster" for Joe Biden, the "worst night for an incumbent in history":

It was in fact as consequential as any presidential debate in history, and the worst night for an incumbent in history. It was a total and unmitigated disaster for Mr. Biden. It was a rout for Mr. Trump. It wasn’t the kind of rout that says: If the election were held tomorrow Donald Trump would win. It was the kind of rout that says: If the election were held tomorrow Donald Trump would win in a landslide.

 

But don't take Noonan's word for it, here's a short infovid from the debate itself:

We have to ask, was this some kind of set up to replace the Senile Old Crook? Was it elder abuse? Are Biden's people traitors, secretly in the park for Trump? Because if they're not, they might as well be. What a disastrous performance, right there on live TV for all the world to see, a doddering, open mouthed, incoherent fraud of an old man. A lobotomized zombie who's obviously not fit for duty, or for much of anything at all. 

Noonan and plenty of others think the Democrats have no choice but to replace Biden. Good luck with that. Primary deadlines have passed, which means Joe has to voluntarily relinquish power. He doesn't want to do that, apparently, and looks forward to debating Trump again in September.

Yes please,

What's With Nikki Haley

 

What's with Nikki Haley? Per Tucker Carlson, “She’s so transparently weak and sort of ridiculous and doesn’t know anything, and just thinks that jumping up and down and making these absurd blanket statements, and repeating bumper stickers, is just like leadership. A self-confident advanced society would never allow Nikki Haley to advance.” Uh huh, and yet she continues to run, despite being consistently trashed at the polls.

Jim Quinn comments, via Zerohedge:

Among the dozens of false narratives spun by the black widow spider psychopaths, which include the Ukraine war, Gaza genocide, safe & secure border, safe and effective vaccines, safe and secure elections, the armed insurrection where no one was armed, Russiagate, declining inflation, and strong growing economy, the continuation of Nikki Haley’s ridiculously pathetic campaign for the Republican nomination. If you haven’t noticed, Trump has trounced this warmongering RINO, Liz Cheney wannabe in every primary/caucus thus far. All the other candidates dropped out, as instructed, leaving only Nimarata as the chosen option of the Deep State and their deep pocketed billionaire donors.

When something makes no sense and the behavior of a feckless politician seems irrational, there is something wicked going on behind the curtain and will not be revealed until those running the show decide it will benefit them financially, politically and increase their power over the masses. As Haley continues to pretend to be a viable candidate, with her coffers being filled by shadowy figures meeting in smokey backrooms, I was reminded of another pitiful excuse for a candidate in 2020.

A senile, old, corrupt, child sniffing coot, who was nothing more than a laughingstock on the national scene as Obama’s token establishment white guy, making a living as the Big Guy in his crackhead son’s worldwide shakedown operations in Ukraine, China and wherever he could make a buck. In case you didn’t remember, he wasn’t even an afterthought in the 2020 Iowa Caucus and New Hampshire primary.

 

He goes on to suggest that, given the Powers' failure to produce a "Nixon moment, El Senor Trump will get "offed" leaving Nikki as a standing presidential stooge for her deep state neo-con handlers and paymasters. Hey, Kamala Harris patently won't work and the senile, old, corrupt, child sniffing crook laughingstock won't either. Enter, according to Quinn, Nikki.

Quinn concludes in epic Zerohedge doomer style: 

"All I know for sure is the next nine months will be an epic shitstorm, with potential assassinations, civil war, global war, financial chaos and collapse, and possibly the end of our nation as we know it.

"Buckle up, the ride is about to get bumpy."

I'm no expert, but I'd say he has a point.

Why is Melania Awesome?

I'd have thought that was obvious, but maybe you're not convinced. Consider the alternatives. 

Genius

There's the genius of Yoko.

Huma, it's not true!

Huma "Bad Choices" Abedin.

Yeah.

Or even the Old Saxophonist himself.

Ahem.

And let's not forget the outgoing First "Lady."

So let's hear it for Melania and no more of this attacking her for making a good speech nonsense. Unless you want to get into it with the bikers.

Iron Horse,
