Dark Brandon, Dark Mood?

By Hubie and Bertie

Among others, POLITICO — which chose to gleefully publish John Podesta's Russian-hacked emails in 2016 but refuses to print Trump's stolen messages this year — is reporting that Dark Brandon is still feeling a bit miffed about those nightmarish three weeks after his June 27 debate. He's reportedly vexed with Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi, Senator Chuck Schumer and former President Barack Obama.

At the same time, though, he's apparently telling people that he "grudgingly respects Pelosi's actions." For the record, we're not sure exactly what those were. Do we think that she helped nudge Biden toward his decision on July 21? Absolutely. Do we believe that she wanted a perilous, fraught-filled open convention? Absolutely not.

The details about the Biden-Obama and Biden-Schumer relationships are similarly opaque. But it wouldn't be surprising for political journalists to pick at the Biden-Pelosi scab more than the others. Nancy's a girl, after all, and one of the most powerful Democrats ever, so no doubt they want to stir up controversy to keep taking her down a peg.

You know what we think about POLITICO — it's trash. But that's not the only reason for them to back off. Just because Joe did the right thing, it doesn't mean he's made it through all five stages of grief. Let's all show some respect. We cats HISS and PURR at the same time.
