Monday, September 09, 2024

Semafor writes about a group of paid influencers, who met online with their camera's off to protect their identities. The group discussed how to promote sexual smears of Vice President Kamala Harris as Democrats rallied around her to be their presidential candidate in late July.

The smears have been strange from the get go.

They want a guy who has cheated on all three wives and has been convicted of rape over a woman who did a nice thing for a guy she was in a relationship with?

And yes oral sex is a nice thing for a woman to do for a guy and men who don't think of it in those terms are odd to say the least.

The money was good: One participant made more than $20,000 for several weeks of boosting assigned messages, according to the Zelle receipts.

The influencers' marching orders were clear: make a series of lurid sexual jibes aimed at Harris, the least crude of which was comparing her to Haliey Welch, the "Hawk Tuah girl" who became a viral sensation over a video of her discussing oral sex.

I remember some poster or posters here making that direct reference which at the time, I had no idea of its meaning.

Perhaps RCade can revisit the archives and find out if his blog is being used by paid agitators yet again using illicit means to smear Kamala Harris and boost support for Donald Trump.

And I have a pretty good idea who these posters were without taking the time to go back and look, and not a single Retort veteran would be surprised.

Trump shared similar attacks on Harris on Truth Social last month. The New York Times described a post the former president amplified as "a crude remark about Vice President Kamala Harris that suggested Ms. Harris traded sexual favors to help her political career."

Of course the daughter-boning------------- was involved.

Welcome to The Republican Outreach to Women 2024: Misogyny Rules!

Keep it up! WOMEN LOVE IT when you blame them, while giving the male boss a pass. And they ESPECIALLY love it every time a guy suggests a woman with power had to suck her way there.

Just pretend to be stunned when women give you the middle finger in November. You built that!

@#9 ... Welcome to The Republican Outreach to Women 2024: Misogyny Rules! ...

It shows the type of men that the Republican Party is trying to appeal to.

In the imagined White Christian Nation women are subservient to men, possibly without the right to vote.

I'm just wondering were many of Trump's beautiful Christians involved in this shameful effort to besmirch Kamala Harris's character. Can't be sure if they were Christians but I think it is obvious thry were cowards!

Progressives will do it all the time.

Everyone knows she was banging Willie Brown. Everyone also knows without his "influence", she wouldnt be where she is now.

Dont get mad because everyone knows this. There are women out there who will use their ----- to get ahead, then act like they are not doing it. Alot of women do this and it's more than you think.

Sort of like Nicky Halley banging her friends in the back seat of a car. I dont put it past any woman, all of them have secrets.

"I would think it's fair to say that most of the people in San Francisco met her through Willie," John Burton, who used to be president pro tem of the state Senate, former chair of the California Democratic Party and a San Francisco political powerhouse in his own right, told Politico.

The speaker gave Harris a couple plum positions on two state regulatory boards " the Unemployment Insurance Appeals Board and the California Medical Assistance Commission. "If you were asked to be on a board that regulated medical care, would you say no?" Harris told SFWeekly a few years later.

Harris' connection to Brown also helped her make connections across San Francisco high-society and California political elite. In 1996, a year after Brown became mayor and Harris broke off the relationship, she joined the board of trustees at San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.

How many men have I seen who use sex and the promise of love to get ahead?

Countless.

You define misogyny. Congratulations. I wonder how many women have learned to hate you?

You mean use it to marry a rich older man and then exist in a loveless marriage of convenience for two decades?

After Kamala left the relationship with Willie, everything she's done since has been due to her own skills, intelligence, and initiative. While it's undeniable that Willie helped open doors that Kamala entered almost 30 years ago, there is nothing in her biography since then showing fealty or subservience to any "man" as her career took off to the point she's now a coinflip from becoming POTUS.

For better or worse, Kamala navigated and traveled her own path to now, not one that any man or men - even Willie Brown - paved for her.
