Kamala Harris, not basement-dwelling Joe Biden will travel to DC to deliver a counter to President Trump’s convention speech on Thursday. 77-year-old (almost 78) Joe Biden is too feeble to travel and campaign.

On the second night of its national convention, the Party of Trump resorted to reruns, hammering home the message he’s been pushing for four years: That the radical left—with help from Communist China and the Lamestream Media—is hellbent on destroying the traditional (white) American way of life, and the only […]
If you just returned from 40 years (or even four) in a jungle in Borneo without television and modern communications and watched Tuesday night’s Republican convention, you’d think these were lovely people doing wondrous things.

Cohen, it seems blackmailed Falwell for a Trump endorsement while the pool boy was passed around like a party favor, not just Falwell but he went elsewhere as well. Doesn’t Trump Tower have a swimming pool? Taking a break between sessions of exhibitionist cuckold sex with the pool boy, Becki […]
