Reflections From a Murky Pond

Kackling Kamala recently confused a bunch of the Democrats… and/or babbled her way into irrelevance. First, she went off the Dems’ script and called President Trump a Communist Dictator instead of Hitler, then she bemoaned the fact that the “titans of industry” weren’t fighting against him tooth and nail.

Democracy sustains capitalism. Capitalism thrives in a democracy. And, right now, we are dealing with, as I called him at my speech on the Ellipse, a tyrant. We used to compare the strength of our democracy to communist dictators. That’s what we’re dealing with right now in Donald Trump. And these titans of industry are not speaking up.

— Kamala Harris

At a minimum, that’s going to send many Democrats into a confused spiral. If Trump is a Communist, does that mean he’s good? And, is Kamala really endorsing Capitalism and wishing – or signalling – that the “Corporate Oligarchs,” the Billionaires, should be their first, best hope to stop President Trump from making America great again? Dems just aren’t built to handle things like this.

Of course, what this will likely result in, given the Dems’ strict orthodoxy and love of autophagia, is that Kamala just made herself politically irrelevant.

My Fellow Americans, the 10s of thousands of Democrats celebrating the murder of Charlie Kirk are not insane; they’re not suffering from some mental illness. They’re just evil. Nor are the 100s who’ve called for more of us to be murdered insane. Quite frankly, not even Mr. Kirk’s murderer, Tyler Robinson, evidenced any insanity by his actions. He was just being loyal to the Democrats in their fight against us.

Not only should we not be offering them the excuse of not being sane, but it’s a plain stupid position to hold. There’s no evidence to support it, and the full weight of history refutes it.

Remember, Democrats across the country, from the Capitol to the classrooms, have spent the last decade calling us Nazis, fascists, bigots, racists, homophobes, transphobes, and more. And, they painted almost every single American norm as evidence of that. It’s hardly insane for people to believe that and take action against the “existential threat to our democracy” that the Dems have labelled us as being.

Reject that comforting lie that the media and the Republican politicians have convinced you to tell yourself… and which many of them may actually believe too. While some insane individuals are committing Democrat-inspired violence, e.g., the majority of the school shootings that make the news, that’s just some of them. The more “political” murderers and attempted murderers are just behaving as rational little soldiers of the Democrat party.

Understand, to Tyler Robinson and the majority of the Democrats, they just assassinated the equivalent of Joseph Goebbels. Worse but just as true, a large plurality of them believe that words are violence and, therefore responding with real violence, even lethal violence, is justified.

They’re not insane. They’re evil.

Cracker Barrel’s current CEO, Julie Felss Masino, has apparently screwed the pooch again. :Roll: The vegan sausage folly taught her nothing, and the failure that was her “modernized” redesign of the iconic restaurants also seemed to teach her nothing. Now she’s decided to minimalize Cracker Barrel’s logo, removing everything about it that branded the chain.

Crackers Got Salty About That Logo

And, as you can see above, Americans have almost immediately responded – cruelly, sarcastically, and extremely harshly. They’ve decided that Cracker Barrel is now a Leftwing, Democrat establishment. Essentially, relegating the 55 year-old restaurant chain to locus non grati status.

And, despite Felss Masino’s people trying to play this all off as just griping from a “vocal minority,” this latest affront to their customers has already cost Cracker Barrel a barrel of money. In just 48 hours, shares of Cracker Barrel (CBRL) fell $4.22 (7.2%) to $54.80 during Thursday’s trading, shedding $94 million in market value. The stock had dipped to a low of $50.27 earlier in the day, representing a loss of almost $200 billion in its capitalization. And yes, that’s orders of magnitude worse than the $1.4+ billion in sales that Dylan Mulvaney cost AB InBev.

For the record, I didn’t care about the addition of vegan sausage to Cracker Barrel’s menu; I despised the modern decor – might as well be Bob Evans; and don’t really care about the new logo, which matches current trends in logo design. But, here’s the thing: I don’t need to agree with all the details of the outrage. I just need to understand that it’s real and that it has the power to fuck Cracker Barrel.

And, much more importantly, Cracker Barrel’s current CEO, Julie Felss Masino, needs to understand that and should have already understood it. Angering and alienating your existing customers, presumably in the hope of attracting completely different ones, is a non-success strategy almost every single time.

Honestly, Cracker Barrel’s BoD needs to fire Felss Masino… and possibly nail her in a barrel and send her over some waterfall. 😉

And, the very, very, very first thing either the BoD or the CEO needs to do is hire – and I don’t care how much she costs – Sydney Sweeney to shill for Cracker Barrel. 😆 Honestly, there’s not much else they can do if they want to turn things around in the next couple of quarters.

Yeah, that’s about right. One, the only way AOC would personally reject capitalism is by writing in only lower-case letters. Much like her mentor and possible sugar daddy, Bernie Sanders, socialism and wealth redistribution are for other people. 😆 But, she also seems dumb enough to actually think writing in minuscules is rejecting capitalism. Then, AOC probably thinks that “majuscule” is a Harry Potter reference.

But hey! So far, she’s the front-runner for the Dems’, 2028 Democrat presidential candidate, though I think that Newsom is actually more likely with AOC being handed the VP slot on their ticket.

The DNC’s choices for VP candidates are an example of part of why the Democrats as a legitimate political force have died. Consistently choosing piss-poor people to fill that role has hurt them a whole lot over the last 20 years or so.

To be clear, though, it’s not always “dumber” per se that’s the primary motivator in their choices. It’s, from what I can tell and what they’ve admitted to, normally someone being “nonthreatening” and not someone anyone would want as President is the major motivation – though Biden’s or his handlers’/nursemaids’ was somewhat of a departure from the Dems’ previous norm since Harris was, by Biden’s public proclamation, completely a DEI pick – though the DNC or other party elites forced him to take a Black woman to double-dip the DIE.

Then, this suicidal trend seems to be based upon the idea of impeachment- and assassination-proofing their POTUS’s if elected. Odd, given that only two (technically 1, since Andrew Johnson left the Democrat party while in office) have ever been impeached by Republicans, and both were acquitted. Similarly, serious assassination attempts against sitting Presidents have always been quite rare.

Ah well; stupid should be painful… and deadly to groups and their importance, as opposed to individuals.
