Trump won in 2016 because the Democratic Party selected the most hated woman in America as their candidate. If the Democratic Party selects another terrible candidate in 2024 and loses to Trump again, it will be once again entirely their fault.

I think that Bernie's opinion on Cornel West is irrelevant, like Bernie's post-2020 opinions on everything else. Bernie, you "coulda been a contendah... instead of a bum" :-)

But let's take a look at Dr. West's performance in the new Emerson College Poll

2024 General Election: Third-Party Candidacy Hurts Biden

In a hypothetical matchup between Trump and Biden, 46% would vote for Trump and 44% Biden. Ten percent are undecided.

With Green Party candidate Cornel West added to the ballot test, 44% support Trump, 39% Biden, 4% West, and 13% are undecided.

“Despite losing ground in the Republican Primary, support for Donald Trump in a hypothetical matchup against Joe Biden increased two points since last week’s poll,” Kimball said. “Cornel West continues to draw support from 7% of independents, 8% from Black voters, and 7% from Hispanics, key demographics that drove Biden’s 2020 victory.”

Biden's support drops a lot when there is the prospect of a third choice. Where he loses support is interesting and very bad news for Biden. Being 5% behind Trump is a pretty bad sign. In November 2020, Biden won 51.3% to Trump's 46.8%, but some of those states were nail-biters. In November 2016, Hillary's 48.2% did not give her enough margin to beat Trump's 46.1%.

On August 18th I posted a similar Fox News poll.

               Total Dem GOP Ind
Joe Biden        44% 88%  5% 29%  
Donald Trump     41%  5% 83% 29%  
Other            12%  5%  9% 38%  
Wouldn't vote     1%  0%  2%  2%  
Don't know        2%  1%  2%  2%

While comparing different polls is problematic since they ask questions differently and sample different people, both polls suggest there is a significant number of voters looking for alternatives to the Democratic-Republican Party (DeRP) candidates. Note that "Other" in the Fox poll scores much higher than Dr. West in the Emerson Poll. That's not surprising, because some people will say "I'll vote for anybody but Trump or Biden" but when you ask "how about X?" they'll say "not that one" :-) Also, Fox's "Other" includes a hypothetical Libertarian candidate, which tend to do 3 to 4 times better than Green candidates.

The Emerson poll also asks about Trump's indictments and Hunter Biden's charges:

Overall, 47% of voters say the four indictments of Donald Trump makes them less likely to vote for him for president in 2024, while 36% say it makes them more likely to vote for the former president. Seventeen percent are unsure or have no opinion.

Regarding Hunter Biden tax and felony gun charges, 46% say it makes them less likely to vote for Biden for president in 2024, while 23% say it makes them more likely to vote for him, and 31% are unsure or have no opinion.

Trump supporters are obviously feistier than Biden supporters.

In Les Misérables, Victor Hugo has a long chapter about when an émeute (civil unrest) becomes a révolution. As I recall it, it's not so much a matter of leadership but whether the ruling authorities have become so oppressive that the people decide it's worth risking their comfort to make fundamental changes.

This happened in the révolutions of 1789, 1830, and 1848. There were many émeutes in addition to these, but they didn't make it to the level of révolutions. The émeute of 1832 is notable because Victor Hugo witnessed it and used his observations in Les Misérables. That émeute was unsuccessful, and resulted in the deaths of a bunch of characters on the barricades.

The jury is still out on Macaron's émeute of 2023. He's certainly trying lots of oppressive things to make it a révolution.

Here is my favorite essay on this subject. It's from 2016 at /r/jillstein: How I feel as a former Bernie supporter right now:

I feel like I'm in a very large, very crowded room right now, filled with people who are all about to vote on whether we will all go blind, or all go deaf. Oh, and there are also other options on the table that nobody seems to be discussing. Conversations between these people and myself go like this:

"You can't possibly be willing to vote to go blind, can you? Just imagine how terrible that would be!"

"I agree, that sounds awful! Going deaf also seems like an awful choice, I'm going to vote to eat cupcakes."

"Pfft, you're just throwing your vote away. Look around here, nobody is going to vote for that! You might not like it but we're either all going deaf or all going blind and you might as well choose the better of those two options."

"I don't want either of those options. I'd rather eat cupcakes."

"Well I would too, but nobody is going to vote that way. We have a two-choice system set up and we have to pick between two crappy options."

Read the whole thing. It's not long and very well said.

One of my favorites was banjolele. He came up with the funniest thing I ever read at DK. This was in the 2008 primary race. Hillary got a lot of delegates early on, but not enough to knock Obama out of the race.

Someone innocently asked "Is Hillary getting any?" Banjolele replied (from memory):

Here's an appropriate line from the classic British comedy Private's Progress (1956):

You all behaved like a shower, now you are to be treated like a shower!

In this context shower is a British slang term meaning "a shower of shit". Unfortunately I've never seen Private's Progress, but I love I'm All Right Jack, its 1959 sequel with the same cast playing the same characters. Shower is a favorite word of Major Hitchcock, my favorite Terry-Thomas performance. He pronounces the word shaarr, usually in the phrase absolute shaarr.

The 2016 Electoral College vote had the most faithless electors since the 19th Century, and was the first in 100 years to have more than one. From Wiki-Pooh:

In the 2016 United States presidential election, ten members of the Electoral College voted or attempted to vote for a candidate different from the ones to whom they were pledged. Three of these votes were invalidated under the faithless elector laws of their respective states, and the elector either subsequently voted for the pledged candidate or was replaced by someone who did...

As a result of the seven successfully cast faithless votes, the Democratic Party nominee, Hillary Clinton, lost five of her pledged electors while the Republican Party nominee and then president-elect, Donald Trump, lost two. Three of the faithless electors voted for Colin Powell while John Kasich, Ron Paul, Bernie Sanders, and Faith Spotted Eagle each received one vote. The defections fell well short of the number needed to change the result of the election; only two of the seven defected from the winner, whereas 37 were needed to defect in order to force a contingent election in Congress (a tally of less than 270).

I think it's hilarious that with all the Sturm und Drang about Trump, it was the odious Hillary who had more faithless electors. Nelson Muntz says "Ha Ha!"

The great Glenda Jackson just passed away at age 87. Here is my favorite of her many roles: Charlotte Corday in Peter Brooks' Marat/Sade (1967). Patients at the Charenton Asylum are performing The Persecution and Assassination of Jean-Paul Marat under the direction of fellow-inmate the Marquis de Sade. Glenda Jackson is a sonambulist who plays Charlotte Corday in de Sade's play. She has come to Paris from Caen to assassinate Marat. In the video, she awakes and describes what it is like to die by guillotine. Amazing actress, in one of her first movie performances, reprising her stage role.

Here's an amusing YouTube comment by someone who saw Marat/Sade on the stage:

I remember seeing a production in Newcastle in the 1960s, with a friend who was very stoned, thought it was all happening in real life and made several attempts to join in. Strangely this added positively to the experience.

Charlotte's friend Duperret is dressed as an Incroyable, an outlandish fashion movement that arose in reaction to the Reign of Terror.

Dave Barry has some excellent columns on the subject of beer commercials:

Shake Hands and Come Out Drinking (1986)

THE BEER FACTS (1992)

I particularly like the Miller Time description in "Shake Hands":

I do know that in one beer commercial -- I think this is for Miller (although it could be for Budweiser, which is also a very patriotic beer) -- the burly men build a house. You see them all getting together and pushing up a brand-new wall. Me, I worry some, about a house built by men drinking beer. In my experience, you run into trouble when you ask a group of beer-drinking men to perform any task more complex than remembering not to light the filter ends of cigarettes.

For example: In my younger days, whenever anybody in my circle of friends wanted to move, he'd get the rest of us to help, and, as an inducement, he'd buy a couple of cases of beer. This almost always produced unfortunate results, such as the time that we were trying to move Dick (The Wretch) Curry from a horrible fourth-floor walk-up apartment in Manhattan's Lower East Side to another horrible fourth-floor walk-up apartment in Manhattan's Lower East Side, and we hit upon the labor-saving concept of, instead of carrying The Wretch's possessions manually down the stairs, simply dropping them out the window, down onto the street, where The Wretch was racing around, gathering up the broken pieces of his life and shrieking at us to stop helping him move, his emotions reaching a fever pitch when his bed, which had been swinging wildly from a rope, entered the apartment two floors below his through what had seconds earlier been a window.

This is the kind of thinking you get with beer. So I figure what happens, in the beer commercial where the burly men are building the house, is they push the wall up so it's vertical, and then, after the camera stops filming them, they just keep pushing, and the wall crashes down on the other side, possibly onto somebody's pickup truck. And then they all shake hands.

The other column has the hot chicks in bikinis :-)
