Todays Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends)
The last-gasp pre-debate stunts have officially begun. Expect more to come. Democrat presidential candidate Julian Castro, whose failing campaign is drawing its final breaths, tried to pull an attention-grabbing stunt at the Texas/Mexico border city of Brownsville on Monday. There, he personally escorted 13 illegal aliens to the U.S. Border Patrol station and demanded they be released into the U.S.
Castro claimed most likely falsely that the 13 migrants were LGBTQ folks, and thus, under Democrat identity politics rationale, somehow entitled to special treatment under U.S. law. The Border Patrol took the grandstanding Castros demands under advisement, jotted down the illegal aliens names, and promptly returned them back across the Rio Grande to have their asylum claims also most likely false adjudicated in compliance with U.S. and international law.
Castro then of course ranted for the conveniently-present television cameras, which was the point of the entire exercise. The next debate is October 15, and Castro is out of money, so pulling stunts like this, in which he actively violates immigration laws himself, is his only means of getting media attention. Its truly pathetic, but then, so is Castro.
Hey, Joe, look at me! signed, Cory B. Another guy whose campaign is out of money and desperate for attention is New Jersey Senator Cory Booker, who pulled a stunt of his own on Monday. Unlike Castro, however, Bookers desperate grab for media attention was aimed not at attracting support for his flagging presidential hopes, but at attracting Quid Pro Joes attention in hopes of becoming his running mate in 2020.
In an interview on ever-friendly CNN, Booker said this about Creepy Uncle Joes problems related to his bullying Ukraine to leave his neer-do-well son free to pursue his pay-for-play enrichment exercise in 1996:
Ive said time and time again that this is unacceptable, that if you come after Joe Biden, youre going to have to deal with me in this case. There is no as you said these are baseless, unfounded, scurrilous lies, plain and simple, trying to undermine the character of one of the statesmen of our country, not our party, but our country. And so, yeah, youve got a problem with me, Booker told CNNs Ana Cabrera on Newsroom.
Of course, Bookers new campaign for VEEP would probably be better directed towards Fauxcahontas, since she is for all intents and purposes now the front-runner for the 2020 nomination, as Bidens polling numbers continue to decline. But hey, you cant blame a guy for trying to cover all his bets, can you?
Meanwhile, Fauxcahontas attracted attention of her own on Monday, albeit attention of the inconvenient sort, as yet another false claim about her personal history came to light. Little Mouth Always Running has spent the last decade frequently claiming to have been fired from a 1971 teaching job in New Jersey because she was pregnant. But, as with seemingly every other aspect of her personal lifes narrative, that complaint turns out to be completely false.
As the Washington Examiner revealed, the local board of education in Riverdale, New Jersey not only did not dismiss the young and pregnant Lieawatha, it in fact unanimously approved a new contract for her. What really happened is that, a couple of months later, Princess Gonna Take Your Wampum tendered her resignation.
Here is what Fauxcahontas, in a rare moment of apparent honesty, told an interviewer about it all back in 2007:
I went back to graduate school and took a couple of courses in education and said, I dont think this is going to work out for me, Warren said in the 2007 interview. I was pregnant with my first baby, so I had a baby and stayed home for a couple of years, and I was really casting about, thinking, What am I going to do? My husbands view of it was, Stay home. We have children, well have more children, youll love this. And I was very restless about it.
Oh.
Now, this latest in a long string of outright fictions about her personal life story will of course be considered as a badge of honor by the deranged Democrat Party voter base. As the Campaign Update has repeatedly pointed out, when it comes to picking presidential candidates, Democrat voters love a good life-long fraud, and there is no more transparent life-long fraud in this race than Lieawatha. So, we can expect the Senator from Massachusetts to get a 2-3 point bump in the polls from this story.
Dont blame me for any of this, folks, Im just the messenger. These are Democrats were talking about here, and this is just who they are and what they do.
That is all.
Todays Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends)
Stop it with the needless fluff. Get to the point. Thesis in the lead sentence.
Life is busy. Dump junk. Please.
Booker is talking about Trump, yes?
1) Will anyone ask Joe what Hunter’s qualifications for aboard seat were and if it was a conflict of interest?
2) Will anyone ask Warren why there are two versions of her first teaching job exit?
3) Will anyone ask Joe and Liz if they would support Hillary if she were the nominee?
4) Will anyone ask the candidates polling under 5% if they are mentally ill still being in the race?
Booker is dumb....he should have rose to the defense of Biden swinging a tomahawk....
that way he would have gotten on Warren's VP list. (cackle)
Only with a Newt Gingrich. Kevin McCarthy is not.
Just...damn.
