The Morning Briefing: DNC Night One—I Think the Democrats Want Trump to Win
PJ Media ^ | 18 Aug 2020 | Stephen Kruiser

A Most Unconventional Convention Approach

Greetings, my friends. I hope Tuesday is off to a good start for all of the Kruiser Morning Briefing faithful.

Well, the 2020 Democratic National Convention (DNC) kinda/sorta got underway on Monday night and we’re still waiting to hear from the twelve people who aren’t in political media who watched it.

Those who did were in for a real treat if they’ve never had a concussion or done hallucinogenic drugs before and wondered what either is like without having to actually experience them.

After night one of the first of the COVID conventions, I can see why the Republicans are playing coy about their plans for next week. It might just be best to reduce it to one big drunken Zoom meeting rather than try to create any sense of normalcy.

The DNC gave it a whirl but, hoo boy, was it a little off.

A series of individually recorded remote speeches gave it a “Gee, we’re sorry we can’t be there for your 90th birthday, Uncle Joe” vibe. That’s perfectly fine when it’s Uncle Joe’s 90th birthday but it’s not as fun if it’s Uncle Joe’s 90th attempt at becoming president of the United States. And Uncle Joe isn’t even at his own party to watch because he’s in the basement.

One of the more perplexing things was the DNC giving a speaking slot to former Ohio governor and noted mailman’s son John Kasich. Kasich brings slightly less excitement than dryer lint to any gathering he graces but what was most amusing was that during the somnambulant lead-up to the DNC, the Democrats were acting like Kasich was a real big get for them.

He’s a milquetoast squish Republican whom no Republicans like anymore, so he tucked tail and went begging for attention crumbs from the Democrats, which is the way of the spineless squishes. After backstabbing his own party to score points with the Democrats and their flying monkeys in the media, Kasich then — as Matt details at Townhall — crapped all over his hosts by disparaging Bartender of the Year Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

I actually feel sorry for the media people whose job it is to cover this farce.

Kasich was doing his imitation of a JDAM target. LOL

LOL, giving the RINO more time and prominence than AOC, what a beitch slap.

Try not to feel sorry for them...they deserve every insufferable minute.

That’s just you being polite. I think the Media should be forced to watch it 24/7, “Clockwork Orange” style. . .

The Rats figure they will lose, but what seeds are they planting for the future and what do have to do to make sure the seeds don’t grow? Got to start thinking ahead!

Uncle Joe’s 90th birthday was in 1969. He was long dead by then.

I didn’t listen to Kasich. Did he tell mailmen that they have a duty to throw away Republican ballots in November?

Yes, the Rats figure they will lose. They are following the old communist motto: ‘Two steps forward and one step back.’

I’m not convinced the Democrats think they will lose. At least not at the street level.

I think behind closed doors the movers & shakers are very apprehensive and this is why they are going balls to the walls for vote fraud

I took a peak at Bernie just for the heck of it and was impressed at how that wall of firewood resembled a hoard of toilet paper rolls. Between him, Kasich, and Gropin’ Joe himself I’m starting to feel young again.
