Democrats Don't Own Mirrors
I've heard scores of Political Pundits talk about President Biden's poll numbers and how they don't reflect his messaging. No one seems to get it, so I thought I'd tell anyone who will listen.
Biden can't speak. He slurs his words and mumbles and is difficult to understand. In addition, he looks like a raisin, to borrow from Succession. He dodders and shambles and shuffles, and is generally unpresentable. He was elected as a grandfather-in-chief and has stayed as such. We're sick of listening to him.
And his primary surrogate, VP Harris, is worse. Instead of being unintelligible, she is nasally. Why do the Dems keep giving us nasally women? They'll just call me a sexist for that, but I can't ignore what I see. Obama looked and sounded cool. Bill Clinton had a sly charm about him. Dukakis looked like a dweeb. It matters a lot how politicians look and sound. More than policy ever will. The Republicans understand that.
So they keep getting elected, against all odds. And life for the marginalized keeps getting worse because. And the Dems keep making plans and hire experts who have never been marginalized in their lives (some), and design the Society of the Future; and then lose in landslides. It is unintelligible. Get elected, then fix the Country.
But Democrats don't seem to own mirrors. How could Hillary Clinton give up her signature hair style for a mullet? Though completely only my utterance, my opinion, I wouldn't have had to fear for my life and/ or liberty for four years if she was just willing to wear a skirt or dress once in a while. Once a week for an hour or two of acting lessons could have taught her to round her vowels. These are the things Dems must do to end the impasse that has become our political system.
Or cede the Country to the Right.
