A day before, we saw an energetic and vibrant Joe Biden in Detroit at a raucous, joyous rally spelling his life affirming vision for the USA and made no bones about Trump’s links to the Project 2025 fascist agenda of taking over the government with their stormtroopers. Clearly, Biden had no plans to quit. That got the “pundit” and “donor” class in a tizzy as the base decided they were not going to allow them to be kingmakers. We can see the gears shift, the polls are saying that Biden has not lost a step and in some, he is now leading.
Today, the news cycle inexorably shifted to Trumpf’s ear being bloodied by some nut job who opened fire at one of his rallies. Tragically, it also led to loss of lives. Cue a feeding frenzy of punditry, sophistry, and outright conspiracy theories and Trumpf’s penchant for grifting and victimhood. There will be no end to the right wing’s milking of this tragedy and apportioning of blame.
This diary is brief. Lets cut out all that. There is no upside in engaging in CT and regurgitating Trump and what happened in that rally. Lets focus laser like on Biden and ensuring his re-election so that he can continue to do the wonderful things he has done for all of us. Our road ahead is to see everyone can vote, ensure reproductive rights, address climate change, a livable wage, and to ensure Dreamers a path to citizenship, and a hundred beautiful things.
