Dems already lost white men. Are they working on infuriating black women now too? They are going to run out of colors and genders soon.

Scott's avatar

They are currently hard at work coming down on the side of Muslims who want to ban dogs from America. The level of political incompetence on display is mind boggling.

BradK (Afuera!)'s avatar

But is it really political incompetence if it works? And it usually does.

Never underestimate the malleability or the ignorance of a Democrat voter.

Is this why Black Rock is buying up the retiring veterinary practices around the country? The skyrocketing veterinary costs are getting quite prohibitive for the ordinary person to own a dog.

Generic Islamophobia.

The generic Muslim is not anyone I would want to share a planet with.

Dems seem to be losing every bracket except white liberal women.

AWFUL’s. Affluent White Female Urban Liberal. The ones on the streets blowing whistles and screaming obscenities at men and women just trying to do their job in Minneapolis.

JJoshua's avatar

That’s great lol

Brian M's avatar

The old saying about Democrats: They eat their own. They already ate their moderates in the past 2-3 election cycles (driving many to independents or GOP). Now they are working on eating their left flank. It is what Marxists always do

The Democratic Party definitely wants to put Jasmine Crockpot in the closet until the primaries are over. Early voting has already started and this manufactured controversy is getting Talarico, someone many rank and file democratic voters haven’t even heard of, a great deal of attention. Mission accomplished.

Brian M's avatar

If Talarico beats Crockett in the primaries then how does she have any political significance going forward? They are killing her politically because she has zero chance to win the senate seat in Texas

Dutchmn007's avatar

C’mon - get with the program! Next up in leadership positions in the Dem party are blue-haired lesbian college professors (with multiple piercings) who basket weave while skydiving.

Try & keep up!

They will make up the genders as they go along.

But hey, they'll win the seminarians with this one! A couple, anyway.

Debby's avatar

lol…there infinite genders..don’t ya’ know!! They might still have the furries in their court!! 🐰🐶🐹🐼

Brandy's avatar

People are going to buy his shtick but I promise he is a wolf in sheep's clothing. He is to the left of Crockett. Progressive far-left

MJ's avatar

I’m looking forward to Jazzy’s next ad going after him, playing the race card and generally flipping over the Dem game board. It’s going to be great fun. She will not let this pass gracefully.

Dena's avatar

Unless she gets bought off like Bernie.

Always a possibility. Democracy!!!

Of course it’s not race, but she will assert that it is because her record is crap. And did you just call me a “stupid botbitch”??

Celia M Paddock's avatar

The thing that creeps me about most about Talarico is that he wears Christianity like a skin suit.

Brian M's avatar

He tries to leverage his religion for political gain. That is what the Sadducees did when they convinced the Romans to crucify Christ.

Brandy's avatar

Right! I'm not even religious but I grew up in church all the time. He is not sincere.

Will Whitman's avatar

He looks like a closeted homosexual. Is he sincere about anything besides revenge on the other side?

Brandy's avatar

I think this, too!

Will Whitman's avatar

I think that's queer. No, no not that way! I meant strange.

Hudson E Baldwin lll's avatar

You are either lying or one dumb motherfucker

0G_Sensei's avatar

No one likes to hear it -

But even mentioning in praise any Christian dogshit religion while working for the state is highly nazi terroristic.

It’s so saturated atm it’s terrifyingly anti-intellectual mind numbingly disgusting & serial mass murdering terrorist insulting stupidity.

VERY Hard not to want to punch people for being Christian post WWII but in the government?

That should probably warrant more than just a warning shot.

https://youtu.be/p--cDDXd33w

Christians are insufferably irrational people- clergy are imho the meanest con men ever to live & BY FAR the most damaging criminal in our society.

R H's avatar

Talarico is a slimy, smarmy, scumbag politician in the mold, of Newscum, Pencil-neck Schiff, Ratskin, Cryin' Chuck, and Swallowell.

Andrew P's avatar

Reality is irrelevant. He is more electable than Crockett for US Senate in Texas.

MJ's avatar

He is. The fight is really in the GOP with multiple challengers to Cornyn for re-election. I don’t think a Dem can win in Texas but if the Republicans are stubborn in their support for whoever isn’t picked, we may have a turnout issue. I hope whoever wins the GOP primary can get everyone the coalesce around the winner to ensure that seat stays GOP.

The Macroscopic Man's avatar

He definitely has a better chance than Crockett. Still not a good chance, but slightly better.

That is not the point, though. The point is that it should be the (Democratic) voters who get to decide, without the rich and powerful gaming the system to push their preferred candidate through the primaries.

Mary Orlowski McFerson's avatar

Oh, but the common citizen, or should I say voter, is way too dumb to select the correct or proper candidate.

This is the tool I used to find out how James Talarico performed as a legislator in TX. The Freedom Index rates members of congress based on their adherence to constitutional principles of limited government, fiscal responsibility, national sovereignty, and a traditional foreign policy of avoiding foreign entanglements.

James Talarico has a freedom index of 7%.

Jursy Gurl's avatar

Actually Jasmine had a higher score than he did while she served on TX ledge before getting into US Congress.

Jursy Gurl's avatar

I’m not able to find much criticism on Talarico except that he has a very low Constitution score as a TX Legislator. He seems to be appealing with his leading with “love” and his Christian ideology. He also looks like a Democrat Charlie Kirk. That’s my observation.

Um.... that is a GOOD thing. Dummy

Andy Hall's avatar

Our politicians are just tools of the parties. Use the tool then discard when not so useful. I would feel bad for Jasmine Crockett, almost, but that's the party she joined. Plus, she just has not earned much sympathy.

Celia M Paddock's avatar

I've got to admit that being thrown under the bus could not have happened to a more deserving person than Jasmine Crockett. I feel no sympathy for her.

But this is a really BAD look for the Democrats--ditching a black woman in favor of a white man. Which is undoubtedly a big part of the reason that they tried distract from their own behavior by attempting to pin "anti-free speech" nonsense on Trump.

danbfas's avatar

Well, they threw Hillary under the bus, you know, the first female President, back in the 2008 primaries when the "Super Delegates" thought it would be better to push the young, male, Black, two-year Senator from Chicago. Ladies? Step aside...again! And yet, the women just don't get it.

BradK (Afuera!)'s avatar

But then Ms. Thang got her revenge in 2016 when the party bosses favored her and threw Bernie under the bus -- for the first of two consecutive election cycles.

Eating their own, they should rename themselves the Donner Party.

Andrew P's avatar

You think that bothers any Democrat voters? They simply want to win.

Celia M Paddock's avatar

After the election in Virginia, it became obvious that *nothing* bothers Democrat voters.

Hudson E Baldwin lll's avatar

TF? The voters decided. AND SHE WAS THE DNC FLUFFER.

Linda's avatar

Correct, and this is an example of why George Washington warned against "factions", or political parties. The 2 major parties were established by the same type of people (God-hating globalists) who control their politicians and manipulate the people (ie/ pit us against each other). We are in a war between the 1% and the rest of us, not between right and left.

Brian M's avatar

I would say that fact is what got Trump elected as he was independently wealthy and did not need the power brokers on the right to get elected. He went straight to the people, including moderate liberals and blue collar workers. That is what pissed off the GOP Establishment (Never Trumpers) and caused them to form the Lincoln Project.

Jln's avatar

She is getting her just desserts. Perhaps she will understand the people she’s been working with are psychopaths.

Jim Trageser's avatar

Always funny to hear Democrats claiming to "fight for free speech" when both California and Hawaii have passed laws banning the mocking of political candidates, and California and New York have passed laws recently requiring social media companies to block "hate speech." And let's not forget that Biden went all the way to the Supreme Court to defend his practice of flagging content on FB and Twitter for removal (which the Court shamefully upheld).

Epaminondas's avatar

Democrats "fight for free speech" that they like. To be fair to Dems, many Republicans are guilty of the same affliction. I find it amusing how quickly they each flip flop to defending or attacking free speech, depending on whether the content aligns with their self-interest.

Jim Trageser's avatar

Fair, but it's not exactly equal: The strongest voices in support of actual free speech - including those whom disagree with you - come from the right side of the aisle, which is where most libertarians reside these days.

Marcus Ebenhack's avatar

This is kind of delicious. DNC Inc. going Bernie 3.0 on Jasmine Crockett. The batshit crazy left loves Jasmine, she's AOC but browner (and just as dim witted.) And has about as much chance of winning a general election in Texas as Pol Pot. Talarico would give them a much better chance though still an extremely uphill swim. But it does serve to perfectly illustrate their commitment to "democracy!" We will tell you morons who to vote for. It's worked very well for them since LBJ's "Great Society" scam.

Andrew P's avatar

Talarico's chances are about 50-50 against Paxton. He would lose to the incumbent Cornyn.

Hudson E Baldwin lll's avatar

No. She's NOT progressive. JFC the STUPID

My Dog's Name is The Dog's avatar

I for one am outraged that the dems just sidelined a sassy outspoken black woman for a boring white man!!!! I am outraged!!!! grrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!! Outraged I say!!!!!

This is legit the funniest timeline ever now. Literally you can't make this shit up.

These people are like one or two words from eating each others face off live on tiktok.

Just leave them alone, let nature work it's course.

praise kek and hail ameila.

MJ's avatar

It’s going to be so entertaining watching this go down — a transplant to Texas, I am now delighted I’m here for the show.

ScottyG's avatar

Wow, throwing out an outspoken Black woman for a plastic white man: how very stereotypical lefty’s version of a racist republican.

Introducing our new CNBC News anchor, Jasmine Crock…

Helen J Vogl's avatar

I love how the democrats try to always blame Trump for everything even though he has nothing to do with whatever it is. Glad to see Jasmine Crockett at least acknowledge that. It seems that they are trying to put the blame for the Potomac sewage spill on him as well. Even though it was known for sometime that there was a problem and nothing was being done. Everything all the time can’t be Trump’s fault!

This is so conniving! My experience in life is that most men are not capable of this type of shit... We just don't have that mindset. But then again, most men are not democrats and the ones that are, are emotional drama queens.

Cluster B personality disorders have different presenting features in males and females as often typically demonstrated in the choice of candidates presented to the Democrat primary election voter base. That select group of peope who bother to vote in Dem primaries is also disproprtionately composed of persons with Cluster B personality disorders.

Benj's avatar

Sounds like they caught themselves a case of white privilege.

NNTX's avatar

And, fwiw, Talarico raised a cool $2.5MM from this caper as he feigned “outrage” over Trump denying his appearance on Colbert’s show

These people are expert at raising $$ from their fake crises.

Unwoke in Idaho's avatar

I don’t think they actually “raise” money. I think it was always there from their oligarch billionaires and China and this is just a ruse to launder it.

Hudson E Baldwin lll's avatar

His money is from small donors. unlike GOP peeps.

Unwoke in Idaho's avatar

Yes that’s what “they say”. But we’ve seen The laundering through Act Blue and we know it doesn’t come from Sadie or Ernie down the block from their social security.

Hudson E Baldwin lll's avatar

Go to opensecrets.org

IT sure as phuk isn't from AIPAC. Unlike Jaz.

Ah the old using profanity due to lack of persuasive arguments shtick with more than a soupçon of Jew hatred.

Yawn.

PapayaSF's avatar

There are people who think candidates and stunts like this will lead Democrats to victory in the midterms. I am not one of those people.

lothar baier's avatar

want to bet there are a bunch of Texas republican voters that are mischievous enough to vote in the democratic primary for crocket ??? :)

357spike's avatar

It's pretty standard practice here. I know a half dozen beside myself who will vote Jasmine in the primary. She's icing on the cake- my county is blue enough we almost always have to vote in the Dem primaries just to try to primary out the worst of the judge candidates.

lothar baier's avatar

at the end of the day it all comes down to the base and as we have seen many times in the past the base will go far left !

The party brass and the donors want talarico because they can sell him as a moderate , the bait and switch worked in VA so why not try it in TX ?

But the base wants crocket , first of because she is a true progressive and on top of it she is black and a woman making her the perfect DEI pick and DEI is embedded in their genes !

But either way it doesnt matter , talarico polls maybe 1point better than crocket against any given republican candidate

One In The Pipe's avatar

Jasmine, Cindy Sheehan, and Christine Blasey-Ford should have lunch soon.

Unwoke in Idaho's avatar

But where has ghetto Barbie gone? From her hair to her clothing to her normal speaking, it appears the ghetto has left Crockett. Could this mean her persona changes to fit the audience? Hmmmmmm

Kjames's avatar

That is the first thing I noticed. Where did that ghetto accent go with all the posturing and mannerisms??!!!!

Unwoke in Idaho's avatar

Same place the Obama’s goes when he gets his black on.

Brian DeLeon's avatar

It seems Jasmine Crockett wasn’t a useful idiot, but only useful as an idiot. As soon as she became a Senate candidate, her days were numbered, and a manufactured crisis was the best and easiest way to take her out. The corporate media, of course, is reporting none of this except the Colbert lies, ginning everyone up in the left. The Democrats are eating their own, but the Democrats are ignoring it, because more of them will be on the menu.
