[What remains the point of debates which are empty of citations that are commonly accepted by the debating parties? As I have pontificated here for some years, and am now joined by my betters like Victor Davis Hanson among others, we are so polarized that we no longer share any cognitive common ground. In other words, we arrive at venues like RR, not only with our own opinions, but also with our own unique ‘facts’ (thereby giving lie to Sen Moynihan’s dictum). The ensuing melee is then composed of nothing but ejecta of hot air flung at the other which make no lasting impact, let alone changing anyone’s beliefs. And yet, … and yet we continue to regularly assemble on both sides of this arena to dance our ferocious dances, making threatening sounds while shaking our spears and shields at the other side, like the natives of primitive tribes or beasts of the jungle that learned to wage faux ‘wars’ without really harming each other. Realizing this, perhaps we can all join in the attempt to discover the point of it all. gjr]

Hey Walt, George, Gregory, don and bill, fish and other Tea Party types. Remember when the Tea Party stood for something?
Remember this:
“The Tea Party movement is an American fiscally conservative political movement within the Republican Party. Members of the movement have called for lower taxes, and for a reduction of the national debt of the United States and federal budget deficit through decreased government spending.”
what happened? Not a peep of protest from any of you about the 5 Trillion increase in national debt under Trump after factoring in the huge amount paid out during the corona virus pandemic.
“The country’s worsening fiscal picture runs in sharp contrast to President Trump’s campaign promise to eliminate the federal debt within eight years. The deficit is up nearly 50 percent in the Trump era. Since taking office, Trump has endorsed big spending increases and steered most Republicans to abandon the deficit obsession they held during the Obama administration.”

Trump wishes badly he was Marcos or Duterte or the Ayatollah,
The call with Trump was “deeply disturbing,” Governor Wittmer said.
“Instead of offering support or leadership to bring down the temperature at protests, President Trump told governors to ‘put it down’ or we would be ‘overridden,’” Whitmer said.
“He said governors should ‘dominate’ protesters, ‘or you’ll look like a bunch of jerks.’ The president repeatedly and viciously attacked governors, who are doing everything they can to keep the peace while fighting a once-in-a-generation global pandemic.”
“The president’s dangerous comments should be gravely concerning to all Americans,” Whitmer said.”

PaulE 252pm – Actually Paul, the Tea Party was never a part of the Republican Party. You must have got that little factoid from a fake news outlet. And the only “principals” the TP abandoned was when it split after its two leaders got into a pissing match. Neither faction abandoned its principles; the political parties (Dems and Repubs) in power never implemented many TP principles through legislation. And only the Repubs paid lip service to some of them.
Who went “goo goo over (Trump) crawling at his feet”? The conservative commenters here have taken him to task (most certainly I do that constantly) when his mouth goes off the rails.

“Who went “goo goo over (Trump) crawling at his feet”? The conservative commenters here have taken him to task (most certainly I do that constantly) when his mouth goes off the rails.”
Not a day passes that I don’t read a respected conservative commentator writing about Trump’s shot from the lip, comments in unflattering terms. National Review, Powelineblog, etc.
From last Thursday’s Daily Quotes:
Observations: “If President Donald Trump sends out a series of bizarre and morally reprehensible tweets accusing Joe Scarborough of murdering a congressional intern — and if you point out that this is both bizarre and morally reprehensible — then you will be labeled insufficiently loyal to the cause. It’s not about truth; it’s not about decency; it’s about signaling your commitment. In the real world, commitment without decency is a sin. Online, commitment without decency is a virtue. Which is why if you spend too much time on Twitter, you probably ought to be committed.” —Ben Shapiro
For the record: “I don’t really care what you think about Joe Scarborough, but no American deserves to have the President of the United States targeting him with accusations of murder. No American deserves the President of the United States tweeting out salacious and unproven accusations suggesting murder and conspiracy. The deceased’s family does not deserve it. Her widower husband does not deserve it. That President Trump does not seem to understand that should bother every one of us.” —Erick Erickson
Oh, BTW, the “shoot from the lip” reference is from Dr. Rebane.

The Trump collapse is astounding according to Conservative Jennifer Rubin
“Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin said Trump is quickly becoming the “invisible president.”
According to the conservative, Trump’s polling collapse is “breathtaking” in light of an election that is just months away.
“The Post-ABC News poll in March showed his approval rating nudging into positive territory (48 percent approval vs. 46 percent disapproval); the latest poll released on Sunday shows him back in negative territory (45 percent to 53 percent). His personal favorability is net -13. His rating on handling the coronavirus has gone from a net +6 to a net -7,” Rubin explained that there is little going right for the president at the moment as he is overwhelmed by events and former Vice President Joe Biden — the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee — surges in the polls.
Rubin Writes “Biden has an enormous approval advantage among groups critical to his victory,” Rubin suggested the former veep may yet see another bump due to how Trump has handled the Floyd protests.

President Trump has been living rent-free in Jennifer Rubin’s head for the past four years. Every day, her profound hatred for the President compels this poor afflicted woman to humiliate herself in a new way. Several times a week, Rubin actually becomes the news because of another tone-deaf tweet.
Today, she managed to outdo herself and wrote, in my humble opinion, the greatest tweet ever sent, which I’ll get to.
This, of course, made us laugh because we remember the Jennifer Rubin of 2018.
Oddly, there were quite a few hits for Rubin’s tweets on Justice Brett Kavanaugh, but they’re no longer available. Deleted?

Before moving into opinion writing, Rubin was a labor and employment lawyer in Los Angeles, working for Hollywood studios, for 20 years. She now describes herself as a “recovering lawyer”.[6] Commenting on working with her from 2000–05, Hollywood animator and trade union leader Steve Hulett described her to Media Matters as “always funny, with sharp observations. I never got the impression she was anything but a Democrat … she was mildly critical of some of Kerry’s campaign moves during the ’04 campaign, but she wasn’t in the Bush camp

MaryW 710am – vandalism in the course of concerted mass efforts to tear down our culture and civilization is definitely an attack, and has always been seen as that by everyone throughout history. Even Antifa communications call it an attack in summoning their members to action. Only naifs and leftwing loyalists disseminating their narrative deny what is really happening in the streets.

PaulE 755am – You seem to be gaining certainty of Trump’s defeat by the day. You could really make some easy money and increase the credibility of your claims if you would give some odds and offer a wager on the election. When will that threshold from just talk to walk be crossed?

re: St John’s taxpayer funded Trump campaign photo op:
‘Park Police say DC protesters cleared because they attacked cops, not because of Trump church visit: report’
“U.S. Park Police reportedly say protesters near the White House were pushed back by riot police on Monday evening because they were attacking police officers, not because of a visit by President Trump to a nearby church that had been set alight the night before…..
“Protesters Dispersed With Tear Gas So Trump Could Pose at Church,” said a New York Times story.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer issued a joint statement to call out the “photo-op.”
“Across our country, Americans are protesting for an end to the pattern of racial injustice and brutality we saw most recently in the murder of George Floyd,” the statement read. “Yet, at a time when our country cries out for unification, this President is ripping it apart. Tear-gassing peaceful protestors without provocation just so that the President could pose for photos outside a church dishonors every value that faith teaches us.”
But on Tuesday morning, Park Police sources told WTOP that this was not the case, arguing that the protesters were not all peaceful, that tear gas was not used, and that officers did not know of Trump’s visit to the house of worship.
A source says tear gas was never used — instead smoke cannisters were deployed, which don’t have an uncomfortable irritant in them,” reporter Neal Augenstein tweeted. “And, the source says Park Police didn’t know President Trump would be walking across the park several minutes later.”
The outlet went on to report that the crowd was pushed back when officers were being hit with water bottles and that protesters had climbed onto the top of a structure at the north end of Lafayette Square that had been attacked and burned a day earlier.”

Another day, another day to expose Always Wrong Menopausal Mary. But, it’s not always black and white. Trump was indeed slammed for St John’s ‘photo op’. That part is true. And,
I suppose it depends on what one’s definition of what “peaceful protestors” is. :).
Next.
