Ed has a post coming up about why the Joe Biden “garbage” comments will stick. In this, he is exactly right. He had a post just prior to this one about Walz’s sticking with the NaziGarbageDeplorableVectorsofinfectionInsurrectionist message while claiming to be a great unifier of the country.

Kamala Harris’ speech last night opened with much the same message. It was not off the cuff. She said what was written on the teleprompter because she could only speak coherently when doing so.
Here is the full entire speech from VP Kamala Harris at the Ellipse in Washington D.C. in case you missed it.

Harris was more sly about attacking Donald Trump’s supporters, but the message was clear in light of the past week’s characterization of the Madison Square Garden rally: we are Nazis, Bitter Clingers, Deplorables, Insurrectionists, Disinformers, Cultists, or, as Joe Biden said out loud and on video, Garbage.
“Deplorables”
“Cling to Your Guns & Bibles”
“Nazis”
“Garbage”When will AMERICANS WAKE UP, Democrats Despise you. When is ENOUGH ENOUGH and you VOTE these Demons out…. once and for ALL pic.twitter.com/Y3tsOWWy8O

The Democrats haven’t hid their contempt for us. We are “bitter clingers” who are beneath contempt. The Democrats haven’t like working-class people since at least 2000.
“Do you sympathize with any voters who do feel offended by or insulted by the ‘garbage’ comment?”

Joe Biden’s “Kinsley Gaffe” was hardly an outlier. This “gaffe” was just one of many in which Republicans and, indeed,the entire working class have been derided. Kamala’s campaign itself has pushed out the message time and again.
Obama had the audacity to ask when the country had become so divisive the other day right after both he & his wife gave speeches ridiculing, black men, all men and some women for not voting for Harris.

That’s why the leftist media is working hard to clean up Biden’s comments, although, to be fair, many are not. It is too obvious, on camera, going viral on TV, and claiming that Biden left out an apostrophe is laughable.
I just saw a guy on CNN say he “heard” an apostrophe

Somebody HEARD an apostrophe. Preposterous. But they are going with that, because…what else do they have?
If you wonder why the propaganda press is viewed as having no credibility and is no longer able to gaslight America like it used to, this isn’t the worst example to study. This NPR activist is willing to brazenly lie on behalf of his political party. https://t.co/ZFlTa79dpn

The thing is that we have heard it all before, both the excuses and the sentiment. One reporter explained that this was just an old man who was unable to speak anymore, although the same media outlets shopped the ridiculous idea that Joe Biden is also “sharp as a tack.”

Schrödinger’s president.
The thing is that ordinary Americans know exactly what the president said and the president meant because we have heard it all before. It isn’t just Joe Biden who pushes out this garbage. It is the entire Democratic Party that does it all day, every day.

President Trump was more gracious than most voters will be. His comment was that Joe Biden is too senile to know that he said this. That’s probably right, although Biden was saying what all Democrats believe. It’s true that he didn’t know he was saying it, but as senile people do they casually drop truth bombs, saying things aloud they would never say if they were more self-conscious. We’ve all seen it.
🚨PURE GOLD! RIGHTFUL PRESIDENT TRUMP JUST HILARIOUSLY REACTED TO BIDEN CALLING TRUMP VOTERS “GARBAGE!”
“Please forgive him, for he not knoweth what he said… Terrible to say a thing like that, but he really doesn’t know.”
Kamala DEFINITELY wouldn’t want this to go viral! pic.twitter.com/M6fxJA40FW

The reaction of voters was not outrage, especially. It was weary resignation that the Democrats all believe this, and determination to take out the trash–by which I mean Democrat politicians.

It is far too late for Democrats to pretend they care about the working class. People know what the elite think of them, not because we are mind readers, but because we have eyes and ears. Bill Clinton, for all his faults, didn’t stew in hate for the working man and woman. The current crop of Democrats do.
It’s all hate, all the time. JOY! was always a farce, and ironically they pushed the message out on TikTok of all places, which is not exactly where working-class people hang out.

Trump says some pretty rough things, but people genuinely believe he has their best interests at heart. We know he directs his ire at Tren de Aragua, not ordinary Latinos who are just trying to get by. We know that Democrats chop up his speeches in order to create an image that is totally ridiculous. We know his heart because he wears it on his sleeve.

On @NPR’s morning edition, zero mention of the controversial “garbage” comments made last night by the president, but yet another report on what the comic said Sunday at Trump’s Puerto Rico rally https://t.co/YSlAUu3Y4t

Just as the media tried to turn Kamala in Female Obama in record time once she became the nominee, they jumped into the same mode after Biden’s comments. Republicans were seizing and pouncing; Biden didn’t say it. Squirrel! Comedian said a bad thing! Racist Nazis were roaming the streets killing blacks and Hispanics!
You saw it in real time, folks.
You saw the media jump into Pravda mode in real time.
You saw the video and you saw “journalists” take the White House lies and run with them without a hint of skepticism.
Even saying YOU were lying.
IN. REAL. TIME.

The thing is, WE DON’T BELIEVE YOU ANY MORE, media folks. You are liars, propagandists, members of an elite desperately trying to keep hold of unimaginable power that shouldn’t exist and needs to be reined in. Trump is not the perfect man to do it, but he is likely the right man at the right time to begin this enormous task.
We are now at the point where the press is telling you what the President of the United States says is less important than what a roast comic says.
That’s pretty telling on multiple levels, isn’t it?

We spent three days talking about a comic’s kinda bad joke that fell flat; the media is trying to memory-hole the President of the United States calling half of all Americans “garbage.” Democrats are calling us Nazis; if they believe that they certainly believe we are garbage. Are Nazis not garbage? I think they are, and you do too.
CBS: You compared Trump supporters to Nazis. Biden called them “garbage.” Hillary called them “deplorables.” Doesn’t that undercut your fake “unity” message?

The Democrats are trying to furiously walk back the comment, but not the sentiment. Their preposterous argument boils down to this: they will unify the country by ostracizing us. This is their view of unity: an America without you and me.
Morning Joe panelist claims Democrats are patriotic because of all the flags you can see at the Kamala Harris rally. The problem? You couldn’t see a single American flag being waved in the shot:

You know it, I know it, and an increasing percentage of the American people know it too.
This controversy will stick around not because it is a convenient hit on Kamala Harris. No doubt Republicans would “pounce” and “seize” on the issue whether it were fair or not. It will stick around because we all know the truth: the left HATES us.
