Trump will wipe the floor with Biden in next week’s debate if he simply keeps his cool. From James Howard Kunstler at kunstler.com:
“Almost every headline and what passes as ‘news’ in the United States, is a cry for help.” — Karen Kwiatkowski
Now that the gunplay and colorful flash-mobbery of Juneteenth has concluded, it’s on to next week’s big debate between the two major party candidates — if debate is even the right description for what is more like a joint press conference conducted by one candidate’s PR firm. What does the reality-starved public think it will see? Probably anything but a fair fight.
It’s hard to imagine what possessed “Joe Biden” to decide this was a good idea for him (unless he wasn’t the decider). Since we’re in an era of archetypal psychodrama, the event looks more like a ritual sacrifice. His recent public performances have been, shall we say, less than reassuring in both utterance and physical poise. He comes off as Captain Queeg meets Mr. Magoo. So, you have to wonder if some ancient tropism-of-the-mind steers him to certain destruction, egged on by those of his own faction who will benefit from his exit.
The sordid spectacle of the Alvin Bragg prosecution has backfired spectacularly as even the president’s own cheerleaders begin to perceive the frightful dishonesty of a politicized DOJ that could just as easily be turned on them. Rachel Maddow and Joy Behar rehearsed their persecution fantasies for all to see on air this week — and, of course, and as usual, it was a sheer psychological projection of what their own party has been up to for eight long years.
Captain Queeg?!
Hory shet time for a mutiny…even Mr. Magoo can see that.
A 55 gallon drum of Adderall and electric shock ear/wrist piece is already waiting.

Big Mike is waiting in the on deck circle even as the people clamor for the Mighty Casey, it will come up to bat in August if Chicago isn’t burnt to the ground?
If the Kamal gets in, you better seal that bunker door tight but after all the CPUSA (D) wants to burn it all down better so that everyone can finally be equal.
More JHK? Aww Yea again and again. (H/T-WTC)
It just isn’t Friday without it.
