Delaware Stonewall Corrects 2018’s Colossal Endorsement Fuckups
As you may recall Delaware Stonewall PAC really screwed the pooch with their 2018 endorsements. That fuckup seems to be addressed with this year's primary race endorsements which include an endorsement of Spiros Mantzavinos over Trump-loving Anthony DelCollo, and a belated endorsement of Stephanie Barry over execrable in every way, Mike Ramone.
I guess you can go back to giving money to Delaware Stonewall PAC if you are into that sort of thing.
MOT Area School Board Election Turnout Bodes Well for Harrington Upset of Hensley in the 9th RD
You can typically win an Appoquinimink School Board seat with 450 votes. Not this year. Michelle Wall got 3.5 times the usual winning number. And while schools board elections are not officially partisan, Wayne Meadows ran openly as a Trumper, so this result is clear evidence that MOT area voters are champing at the bit to punish Republicans motherfuckers at the polls.
ODESSA -- Michelle Wall, 42, of Odessa, won re-election to a second, five-year term on the Appoquinimink school board July 21, defeating political newcomer Wayne Meadows by a vote of 1,370 to 806 in the largest school board election turnout of the past two decades. Michelle Wall wins re-election to Appoquinimink Board of Education July 21. The turnout for the 2020 election was fourfold to 2019, with 552 voting last year compared to 2,176 this year. The last election to receive nearly 2,000 voters was in 2000.

Diaper Donnie was at it again in his bonkers interview with Chris Wallace, whining, complaining and generally acting like the giant baby that ate America. So here's another one for…
Trump tells Chris Wallace that he is staying in the White House, even in defeat. Biden Responds
TRUMP: You don’t know until you see. It depends. I think mail-in voting is going to rig the election. I really do. WALLACE: Are you suggesting that you might not accept the results of the election? TRUMP: No. I have to see. Look, Hillary Clinton asked me the same thing. WALLACE: No, I asked you the same thing at the debate. TRUMP: What I'm saying is that I will tell you at the time. I'll keep you in suspense. OK?BIDEN: The American people will decide this election. And the United States government is perfectly capable of escorting trespassers out of the White House.

Trump says Biden wants to “destroy the suburbs” – How Biden should respond
When Trump says shit like this (below), it must be tempting for the Biden team to get into the weeds of trying to educate this asshole on the topic of fair housing. Biden should resist this temptation and just point out what a crazy nutbag Trump is being.
Possible Biden Response: He sounds crazy because he is crazy.
Possible Biden Response: Poor guy. He is a mess.
Possible Biden Response: He sounds like he needs serious medical attention.
There are no persuadable voters. Nobody is going to be moved by a discourse on housing discrimination.
Here is what Trump said:
They’re absolutely determined to eliminate single family zoning, to destroy the value of houses and communities already built, just as they have in Minneapolis and other locations that you read about today. Your home will go down in value and crime rates will rapidly rise. Joe Biden and his bosses from the radical left, want to significantly multiply what they’re doing now. And what will be the end result is you will totally destroy the beautiful suburbs. Suburbia will be no longer as we know it. So they want to defund and abolish your police and law enforcement, while at same time destroying our great suburbs.
Coons Says the Senate Isn’t Working Because… well, I’ll let Coons say it
COONS: So top causes (of Senate polarization). We don't live together. So we travel back and forth to our home states every week. For Delaware, I've traveled back and forth to my home state almost every day, so I'm an exception. But for most of the Senate, listening to Joe Biden, my predecessor, and asking him how he and John McCain, for example, built a working friendship over decades, everyone would come in on Monday and stay until Friday, and often move their families here and often live here for long periods of time.Senators need to live, love and pray together so Democrats can learn how to compromise better. Coons is very committed to this idea. Get a load of this...
...And when I got back, I made a point of going up to several, relatively, new senators who I overlap with on a committee, an area of interest, an area of background, but where we don't really know each other that well. And I said, bluntly, I want to come get to know you. I want to come to your state. I want to come to your home. I welcome you to mine. I'd like to go to worship together. I'd like to give a speech together. I'd like to find a way to legislate together. Because if there aren't people I can work with, there is really no point in my being here, first.They need to eat their Republican Sandwiches and pray together. That's the ticket! That was from September 2018. Coons' heroic GOP ass-kissing campaign has yet to bear any fruit.
