John Kerry loans Kamala Harris his pair of flip flops
Remember back in the day when John Kerry was called a flip-flopper for voting for the Iraq War and then reneging on that decision when it was time for the democrats to take back the White House? And then George W. Bush verbally fumbled his way into a second term in said house? Good times. We didn’t have social media then, and our culture was a lot less rude, or at least didn’t have a 24-7 outlet for our repressed rudeness. My goodness, but some of the things people say on social media nowadays. I once saw a person tell another person that they are not a nice person. Can you even imagine?! And that wasn’t even the half of it! If my nana were still alive, she’d wish she weren’t for all the potty-mouthed-ness and no-goodery. Excuse the harsh language, but it should be called anti-social media, the way some folks act on it.
Any-who, John Kerry is the partial subject of today’s rant because I’m not great at keeping up with the times. Apart from having not aged a day or maintained the ability to express emotions on his face since 2004’s presidential election (due in large part to his Botox treatments), my sources are telling me that in a wonderful symbolic gesture, he’s given our beloved Vice President his pair of flip flops. You know what that means, don’t you? It means she can change her mind on practically any issue for political expediency. That means she’s finally a full-fledged Democrat! Isn’t that amazing news? Gone are the days when something is always wrong or always right Immanuel Kant can take a long walk off a short bridge, and his categorical imperative can tag along. Gone are the days when she has to stand on principal even if it costs her votes. Gone are the days of her feet firmly planted in her convictions, telling the whole world to move (like that famous line from Captain America: Civil War). It’s really exciting stuff when you think about it. When did we get confirmation of the exchange? Well, last week of course.
You see, she went to Guatemala and told Spanish-speaking immigrants from that impoverished and crime-filled country “Don’t come” (to America). Then she presumptuously told Lester Holt in a please-Lord-let-it-become-infamous interview that Guatemalans don’t want to come to America. I’d shy away from speaking for an entire culture, but you do you, Kamala. She also made the verbal gaffe of saying “I’ve never been to Europe either” when asked why she’s not been to the America/Mexico border. That’s good logic, because we have such a horrific border crisis with that continent we………..don’t share a border with.
We here at Thirsty for Clicks couldn’t be happier for her. For you see, she ran for president, lost the nomination (after calling Joe Biden a racist), jockeyed for the office of presidential running mate with the guy she called racist, got it based on her skin color and genitalia (not her experience, leadership skills, or qualifications because those are unfair, white supremacist, and sexist measuring standards), and campaigned on the idea of opening up the borders and undoing all the evil of the evil orange man. Meanwhile, families and children continue to be seized and split up at the border. In an Orwellian doublespeak twist of fate, the “cages” holding immigrant children have been renamed “pods” and “living accommodations” so horrible people can sleep soundly at night without those pesky pangs of conscience. Never mind the children suffering, it’s the vice president who has to get a tight eight hours. She’s hit a bunch of the democrat talking points and strategies in a short span of time. I’d say she’s been fully initiated into the D-gang. I don’t think she even needs to be jumped into it (I always get a little off-put when I see a group of young men kicking a person who wants to join them repeatedly in the face, ribs, and back, doubly so when it’s done to a young woman). All that’s left is a scandal involving a secret family or her inability to not sexually harass staff subordinates to round out the out-of-control politician wheel of entertaining drama.
One is inclined to wonder how conservatives and their less-than-conservative cousins; elected republicans, ever manage to win elections nowadays. Liberals and leftists outnumber them. The left is able to cry racism and (insert applicable)phobia with impunity instead of engaging in logical debate. They constantly promise free things which will magically and freely appear out of thin air and certainly not from being forcibly seized from the pockets of hardworking taxpayers. They can flip their stance on hot-button and moral issues and not even have to pretend it wasn’t done for the votes of their lunatic fringe and those not in the lunatic fringe but who are afraid of upsetting the lunatic fringe (because fear of what some crazies might do if they aren’t pacified always leads to sound decision-making). They have a stranglehold on the educational world (that means getting and indoctrinating them young and often). They have a controlling stake in the news media and mainstream narratives. Don’t believe me? Take the shenanigans Hunter Biden has found himself in and replace his name with Donald Trump Jr., then speculate on whether or not we’d ever hear the end of it. They are still celebrating non-white and female firsts despite the fact that race and gender stopped being an issue to most conservatives—yes, I know there are a few to whom the death of the patriarchy and unequal rights coincided with the death of their love of this country because Republicans have their lunatic fringe as well—many years ago because they care about work ethic and qualifications, not the way someone’s genitals point or the level of melanin in their skin . Liberals are routinely engaged in political orgies with big tech and Hollywood, so the American version of the aristocracy gets their message out while simultaneously stifling the message of the right. But yeah, it was uneducated and racist white people and uneducated and racist white people only who elected Donald Trump. I didn’t vote for Trump either time, but I smell something fishy with that ridiculous apothegm. You believe that popular liberal lie and I’ll sell you a bridge in Manhattan, throwing in some swamp land in Florida to sweeten the deal. Would you also like this big bag of cocaine that definitely isn’t baby powder while you’re on such an epic roll? Could it be that conservatives continue to get elected because their ideas are better for human prosperity (even if they seem harsh and uncompassionate in the moment), that the rule of law and capitalism are the best systems an imperfect human race ever concocted, and that constantly saying you’re smarter, better, and more moral people while projecting your hatred and racism onto your opponents gets really old? Nah. It must be something else.
Well played, Madam Vice (but soon to be in total command once she gets that old, creepy racist out of the way) President.
Hey there, beloved reader! Don’t stop reading yet. I enjoy writing and creating content for you, but I don’t get paid to do it just yet. Recently, I took on the Herculean task of fixing America and wrote a book on the subject; the very literal-titled “I’ll Fix America Tonight”. There is a a link where you can conveniently add the book to your Amazon cart (if you’re flush with about $20 in cash right now) or your wish list (if around $20 in cash is a little too much right now, but hypothetically not too much in the near future). Buy it, and help end poverty (namely my poverty). Thanks for reading!
