Haley on ‘standby’ to help ‘overly masculine’ campaign

Before I start quoting the article – its title reminds me of the ‘Chatter’ I have been seeing here about Women Voters & the 19th Amendment.

In an interview Tuesday, she didn’t mince words with how the controversial event in New York went, especially comic Tony Hinchcliffe’s joke about Puerto Rico as an ‘island of garbage.’

‘This bromance and this masculinity stuff, it borders on edgy to the point that it’s gonna make women uncomfortable,’ Haley said.

She cited an ad by a super PAC run by Elon Musk calling Kamala Harris the c-word and a cut joke from Hinchcliffe’s set that planned to call the vice president the same word.

‘That is not the way to win women. This is not the way to win people who are concerned about Trump’s style,’ she said.

Didn’t watch the Madison Square Garden rally, but it was immediately obvious the next day that something was not right when I saw – ‘Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage”’.

Haley may have been harsh on her “’overly masculine’ campaign” comment, but then again—just look at what is being said about Women Voters here on this blog—not a lot, but more than enough to notice. Then add in the damage of‘Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage”’…GEEZ!?!

That behavior can’t keep happening if Republicans want Trump to win…

Incredibly important new information from Mollie, in addition to an excellent brief review of the entire Russia Hoax.
An additional excerpt:

Back on the roof in January of 2017, Evan Perez was shown on television reading and reporting on Clapper’s statement from a remote location. Tapper and his colleagues interpreted the statement as confirmation of their story and a repudiation of Trump’s dismissal of the Russia collusion story as false.

While Perez’s package was airing, and at the point he read Clapper saying that he didn’t think the leak came from the intelligence community, Sciutto said that he was pretty sure Clapper knew the leak came from the intelligence community “because …,” he said, trailing off as he rolled his hands suggestively and somewhat like a football referee very slowly calling a false start. He said it for all to hear, though I’m not sure anyone else other than Jake Tapper, who he was sitting to the right of, and I heard and understood. Tapper squeezed Sciutto’s left wrist the way my mom used to squeeze my wrist at church when I was being too loud. I interpreted this message roughly as “stop talking you idiot.”

Sciutto was a former Obama administration political appointee in the State Department. It wasn’t clear if he was saying that Clapper had leaked to him or one of his three co-authors, a Clapper aide had leaked to CNN, or merely that Clapper knew Comey or one of his aides was leaking to CNN.

It may be hard to remember, but at this point in the Russia collusion information operation, people knew almost nothing. … We really knew nothing about how corrupt and political the deep state was. And we didn’t yet understand that major media existed almost exclusively as regime mouthpieces, uncritically serving as leak receptacles for the information operations they run against the American people.

After we were done that day, Tapper came up to me on the roof — something he rarely did when I saw him at CNN — and told me that he really wanted to get me on his Sunday show. I perceived this as an attempt to keep me quiet about what I had witnessed. It failed, and I began writing immediately about how the dossier story was an information operation being fueled by top officials in the intelligence community. I published “Top-Level Intel Officers’ War Against Donald Trump Is Bad For The Country,” a few days later.

I was able to write that piece, as well as spend the next few years confidently fighting the Russia collusion hoax under unbelievable resistance, because of Jim Sciutto and Jake Tapper’s actions that day. I already doubted the Russia collusion hoax because I knew actual Trump voters, but that day I realized that even the authors of the signature Russia collusion article knew that it was an intelligence community leak operation and were uncritically regurgitating it. If I knew enough to do what I did based on that tiny interaction between Jim Sciutto and Jake Tapper, Jake Tapper sure as hell knew enough to not take part in the regime’s information operation he promulgated every day for the next few years.

Tapper is trying to hide now, inaccurately saying he merely reported what government operatives leaked to him. What he did was much worse. But even if that was all he did, it would be indefensible.

He could be like Elon Musk, who moved operations from California to Texas for economic as well as ideological reasons, and stands by the ideological principles.

Or he could be like many Democrats, who vote for people who enact policies that hit them, move to places with different policies on that issue, and immediately start electing the kind of people who enacted the policies they ran away from, because they don’t realize it’s a Package Deal with Democrats.

One is by a Puerto Rican woman, and one is by Jon Stewart.
Not for the same reasons, obviously.

Read the whole thing, it’s funny, with pictures. This is the relevant part:
“The problem is, Puerto Ricans actually got the joke:”

Do we really need to explain the Puerto Rico joke?
(which she does: he was referring to the massive pollution on the beaches)

BREAKING: Puerto Ricans who attended Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally say they had ZERO problem with the joke Comedian Tony Hinchcliffe made on stage.
“Do you guys even give a — about that?”
Them: “No, we don’t… Puerto Ricans for Trump.”
Only white liberals are mad about a freaking JOKE.

Jon Stewart made the comments on his Monday show, which can be found in full here.

I appreciate that he still has the capacity to laugh and doesn’t want to censor comedy, but … well … he helped usher in the woke killjoys who can’t tolerate anyone who thinks differently than them, so he shouldn’t be surprised.

I love this little jab at Kamala Harris though:
[AF: I added the lead-in to Stewart’s quoted remark]

Bringing him to a rally and having him not do roast jokes —
That’d be like bringing Beyoncé to a rally and not having … oh.

All the more reason the performers shouldn’t muck up the event. Given his reputation, his routine should have been reviewed– which the campaign said didn’t happen. The Trump campaign has hundreds/thousands of people so it wouldn’t be surprising if a few moles are among the staff. It would be interesting to know who suggested him to the campaign.

Mistakes are inevitable– but the closer we are to the election the less time to recover. Trump needs the Puerto Rican vote in Pennsylvania and this doesn’t help. Philadelphia has the second highest Puerto Rican population with 140,000 in the country behind New York City. A million Puerto Ricans live in the swing states.

Depending on the circumstances, someone should get their walking papers.

If you’ve got a story or two, I’d love to hear.
