In You Gotta Play Hurt, his roman à clef about his profession at Sports Illustrated, the late, nice Dan Jenkins had his hero, Jim Tom Pinch, discussing Austrians with one among his researchers whereas masking a ski race in Austria.
Researcher: This era’s not chargeable for all that.
JTP: I do know. But don’t give the motherf*ckers weapons or armbands—they’ll be in France by tomorrow.
Welcome to the 2024 election for president of the United States. From The New Republic:
Watters claimed that Fox was “getting a lot of texts from women about Miller,” and that his viewers sees him as a “sexual matador.” “What do you have to say for yourself?” requested Watters.
Jeez, I by no means thought I might vomit that far.
“The best thing you can do is to wear your Trump support on your sleeve,” mentioned Miller. “Show that you are a real man, show that you are not a beta. Be a proud and loud Trump supporter and your dating life will be fantastic.”
When I hear Stephen Miller, that balding Gauleiter, speaking about carrying something Trump-adjacent in your sleeve, I begin planning for a crossing to Normandy. And you could have seen that, certainly, the goose-step is changing into the “in” step this yr. For instance, there’s this vulgar speaking yam on the market, burbling about migrants who're “poisoning the blood” of our nation” and who've “bad genes” in them. This, by the best way, is how The New York Times headlined a story on the latter:
Main hed: Trump’s Remarks on Migrants Illustrate His Obsession With Genes
Subhed: In discussing migrants and genes, the previous president used language that mirrored his decades-long perception that bloodlines decide a particular person’s capability for fulfillment or violence.
And here’s a headline from The New York Times, January 31, 1933:
HITLER PUTS ASIDE AIM TO BE DICTATOR; German Cabinet Also Reveals Shift by Conservatives Who Once Barred Him. NAZI’S RISE WAS RAPID Imprisoned for Munich Revolt in 1923, He Later Led 6,000,000 in National Election. LONG AN ALIEN IN REICH Industrialists of Rhineland and the Ruhr Are Believed to Have Forced Coalition Rule.
You might have famous that the previous president* is planning a large outdated rally at Madison Square Garden on October 27 to “kick off” the homestretch of the marketing campaign. And because of outdated pal and Friend of the Blog Keith Olbermann for reminding us on his podcast that final February was the eighty-fifth anniversary of the large German American Bund rally at a earlier Madison Square Garden, the one which featured George Washington wreathed in swastikas, and the one which occasioned a close to riot outdoors amongst individuals who thought wreathing George Washington in swastikas was by some means offensive. (Damn woke snowflakes anyway.) The accoutrements of the Republican marketing campaign are starting to concern me.
