People do not trust the legacy media chorus and propaganda wing of the DNC, for any truth, fairness or accuracy. More people are buying JD Vance's book and renting the movie to get to know him better. The fake news could have given Vance, a Kamala powder puff welcome, and not even have to lie and spin, since he is a nice person with a good record, unlike Harris than needed a total makeover with makeup.

"a total makeover with makeup." What new absurdity is this?

Best Sellers - Books - The New York Times

The New York Times, which is slanted Liberal, has Vance's book as #1 on the nonfiction list. Vance's book has been on that list for 91 weeks. Fiction has a different category and a different #1. The new play called, Coronation of Kamala, is not even on that list of nonfiction, since the plot is not credible. It does have a fan base composed of those who like alternate realty.

Even bad publicity is good publicity.

Or as these two said....

P.T. Barnum said, “There’s no such thing as bad publicity.”

Oscar Wilde said, “There’s only one thing in the world worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about.”

This is how Trump stayed in the news. He knew how to push buttons; crooked Hillary, and get a wide scale media over reaction that led to Trump Derangement Syndrome. Unfortunately, that cartoon character, Trump helped to create, seemed to get a mind of its own in the brain's of Liberals, due the over reactions coming from their own side of the news being fed to the brain's of their base.

When Trump was suspended on social media, the free publicity slowed to a trickle. When DNC started up their 2024 publicity machine, they took the law fare approach as the center stage. They did not expect all the good publicity Trump got; victim, and how they became the bad guys. Instigation or offensive publicity comes at a price. The Democrats are still in a tale spin since the hyper positive coronation seems disingenuous, especially when the media did not complain about the threat to Democracy, when the Cabal stabbed Biden in the back and stole his votes and campaign money and installed their new puppet.

I read the book in about 2018 (it was a book club choice), but can't say I thought much of it. I found much of his complaining about his own situation tiresome, and also that he overgeneralized from his own experiences and applying his feelings to the rest of of Appalachia and Ohio. And finally, I found it somewhat self-congratulatory about his own "escape" from his past.

I've read the book -- not good for his campaign if the reader has even average reading comprehension. "Hillbilly" JD is not.

The problem with Vance's life story is it shows that Big Government Liberalism is the problem. Sending jobs overseas occurred because one political party; DNC likes to tax, spend and busy body regulate and made it too expensive for companies to remain in the US. These companies needed to escape big mother for the freer markets in other countries. This industrial flight leads to unemployment in the USA and then loss of motivation, especially in poor places like Appalatia, leading to dependency on substance and Big Government.

The young children are caught in the cross fire between parental substance abuse, discontent, abuse and divorce. It was the older or golden generation; grandmother, who still had her old fashion values of self reliance, who saves a young boy from despair, and makes sure he start out on the right road. She instills pride and self respect and he grows up in a positive way to become a candidate for VP of the USA. It is the American dream. He does not have to lie and embellish, but through hard work and service to his country he overcomes and prospers.

This story bother Liberals, because it shows everything that is wrong with this country and also everything that is right. Liberalism is exposed as the source of so many social ills, under its mask of caring. Liberalism is like an over bearing mother, drunk with power, that creates dependency and takes away the self reliance of her children. The story of Vance is also story of how we can make America great again; become the top of the class, instead of staying at the bottom of a class, that has no class.

Look at Harris and now VP candidate Wilz , they do not answer questions, but let fake new create a fairy tale, that the entire moron base eats. One can see the source of the problem. Why shouldn't Harris have to speak up and make her case? That would be more adult. When she does vocalize it sounds stupid and can be seen as the source of many problems. It is not even rational yet the same people lecture us on science. There is no consistency between what is said any how things turn out. It all appears to be a scam that has cause harm to many.

I was a Liberal when the modern era of Liberalism began; Hippie Generation, but what began with the love generation morphed into the con artist generation. It is time to either return to the roots or pull the weeds up by the roots. Back to the states is the best answer, since it allow for the parasite state and productive states, so we can compare side by side and not contaminate everyone.

Have you read any books on how unregulated blue-collar work can be in other countries? I have. It can get really, really bad. We should be able to maintain a reasonable standard, and keep the jobs here

Walz holds the record for allowing the most fraud from the COVID fund as Governor of Minnesota. It was mostly connected to a group of Somalian Immigrants who settled in Minnesota. His staff caught it early, but Walz the identity politician he was, was afraid to hurt anyone's feelings since he needed his radical Left base, and allowed it to continue. I wonder if Waltz used this as a way to money launder COVID funds, back to him as a campaign donation?

When officials finally stepped in and change a large group with the rip off, one of the accused left a bag of cash; $125,000, on the doorstep of a jury member, that had come from the ripped off fund.

Feds: 48 charged in 'brazen' $250M COVID spending fraud centered in Minnesota

The Left only has fake news gossip and nothing of substance when it comes to Vance.

Walz was like Nero, watching the city of Minneapolis burn, via BLM, until he and his wife had to leave because of the risk. He delayed calling in the National Guard. The downtown area of Minneapolis was a a striving minority business area; enterprise zones under Trump. Now it is back to crime and despair under Leftist policy, that condones violence and blame the police. It make no sense that Harris would pick that clown other than to make her look like an intelligent less corrupt centrist.

Fake news is carrying their water with them not having to address anything, with their base acting like it never happened. What I have read is the Latino Base that voted for Biden is now switching to Trump because the DNC stabbed Biden in the back. They still liked Biden and are not too keep on repackaged Harris tour.

Even Pelosi who led the gang who stabbed Biden, is getting buyer's remorse. She said she wanted Harris to be herself and own her Liberal nature, and not try to become an obvious fraud, propped up by those who propped up Biden, pretending all was well. The is causing fights to happen in the DNC. The honeymoon is almost over. The DNC Convention is about to happen and there may be a surprise.

I agree that Walz is awful.
But one must compare him with Vance, who...
- Wants to surveil women who cross state lines in order to
prevent legal abortions.
- Wants to "wage a war" on women choosing to not bear
children.
- Still proffers the lie that the 2020 election was stolen from
Trump.
- Wants all the insurrectionist rioters pardoned (even after
killing cops).
- Wants USA to become a Christian country, with the
Constitution subordinate to the Bible.
- Now supports a President he believed is "America's Hitler".

Walz is at least reasonable (for a liberal).
Vance is a much worse kind of awful.

I just read another Walz doozy.

Tim Walz's Pension Program Faces Audit After 'Cooking the Books' Accusations.

A Minnesota retirement system for public school teachers under Gov. Tim Walz is “cooking the books” by vastly underreporting annual fees paid to Wall Street investment managers — and posting near-impossible gains tantamount to a “Madoff miracle,” a top pension investigator said.7 hours ago

This is the new way to money launder donations, from Wall Street Investment Managers, at the expanse of the pensioners, who keep giving with joy. This is sort of like the DNC getting the Teachers Union a big pay raise, with tax payer money, which the union bosses kick back a percent to the DNC for the heist.

Usually the DNC has their finger on the pulse of sleaze, and should have caught this. I wonder what the name of this game is? Will there be a DNC Convention bait and switch? Or is it a demonstration on just blind their base will allow themselves to be, and still vote D. Or how much crime they can commit and never get punished. Law fare for political opponents and law unfair for they own.

I agree that Walz is awful.

Above is a baby stuff since it is all words; wants, and not actual actions; does or did. Does and did cuts out the middle men of fake news and propaganda. Does and Did applies more to Walz's record. If he lies about it, that is good enough for the DNC base, since words matter more.
