The crazy part is, at least currently, the “right-wing clout” is simply speaking the truth. Men don’t have uteri. A man with his junk out in the ladies’ room is a perv with his junk out, not a pupating womanhood butterfly. No, promoting an incompetent DEI candidate will not magically make that person competent. “The patriarchy” isn’t why I’m not currently the CEO of anything. Big Mike Obama is objectively not beautiful…and so on.

Because these hollow “people” have no actual convictions beyond Staying in Power(TM), they DO NOT UNDERSTAND any of this. They think whatever our side is, is performance, just as theirs is. Hence their lame attempts to trot out Tim Walz as a Regular Guy:“See, he *beep boop* USES-FIREARMS and *rrrzzzz* WAS-A-COACH-OF-SPORTS, now you have to buy whatever we are selling [/end].”

Their clueless and bungling attempts to stay popular and relevant have provided hours and hours of amusement. I kinda hope they keep it going.

I saw an interesting analysis of why Kamala didn't do Rogan. In those long format venues, you talk about a lot of stuff. It is impossible for a Democrat pol to talk about a lot of stuff since something would offend elements of the coalition who would then cancel they/them. Their go to strategy (which those of us in the 2A world figured out long ago) is simply to lie but that doesn't work in long format either since any honest interviewer will expose the contradictions.
