“The key to being a good manager is keeping the people who hate me away from those who are still undecided.” Casey Stengel

Joe Biden is a serial plagiarist, but that didn’t hold him back. And it sure won’t hold Plagiarist Claudine Gay back, either.
Gay may have resigned, but it was just a formality. The result of too much negative press that the Harvard governing body could not ignore.
Harvard won’t admit Gay did not have the necessary intelligence, work ethic, or ability to hold the job she had.
She just fit the pants suit.
And the University is not about to cave and admit that Gay and Harvard do not combat anti-Semitism, or disapprove of academic plagiarism.
(Which now The Leftist Associated Press is running with "reimagining" actual plagiarism as “the new conservative weapon against colleges.”)
So, yes, Gay quit, but they let her keep her $900,000 annual salary. So much for teaching a lesson.
In her letter of resignation, Gay didn’t apologize. In fact, her tone indicated she was angry, believed she did nothing wrong, and that she was a victim.
Of guess what? It starts with “R.”
She so obviously missed the point of why she was hired initially, and what she did wrong as a poor academic leader.
In her letter, she wrote that she had looked forward to working “to advance the commitment of academic excellence.”
She said she was distressed that doubt had been cast on her “commitments to confronting hate and to upholding scholarly rigor.”
No comment.
The New York Post summed it up pretty well.
“In resigning as Harvard president, Claudine Gay couldn’t have made it clearer why she absolutely had to go.”
Yet, people like Gay, who are arrogant, unlikeable peoples, don’t get it that we get it.
Christie, Romney, Liz Cheney. Take your pick, but let’s pick Hillary.
Hillary, Butter-Wouldn’t-Melt-in-Her-Mouth Trooper that she is, insisted on The View that although she “really hated losing” in 2016, she “really, really tried” to be supportive of Trump, and wanted to remind viewers that she encouraged people to give him a chance.
But we remember it differently, ‘cause we saw the videos. We read the news. Her calling him “Hitler,” “illegitimate president.” Mocking him on his Inauguration Day.
“I’m a former first lady, and former presidents and first ladies show up,” Clinton told CBS News Sunday Morning in 2017. “It’s part of the demonstration of the continuity of our government.
“And so there I was, (victim) on the platform, feeling like an out-of-body experience. And then his speech, which was a cry from the white nationalist gut.”
These people do their Political Dance as if they believe no one is watching.
Last week Nikki Haley looked like she is not too familiar with American history.
Could it be because U.S. history isn’t interesting to her?
Yes, she was born here, but like Obama, who isn’t much into American history, their roots seem to be elsewhere.
Why else would Nikki be thrown for a loop when some guy in the audience at a town hall in New Hampshire asked her what she thought was the cause of the Civil War?
“I mean, I think the cause of the Civil War was basically how government was going to run,” she sputtered. “What you could and couldn’t do. The freedoms in what people could and couldn’t do.”
This was after she paused, then accused, “Well, don’t come at me with an easy question.”
She tried to walk it back, just like the White House has to do every day with Joe. But like Gay, what we saw wasn’t pretty.
At least Joe has an excuse. He was never the brightest bulb in the pack. And now he’s suffering from dementia.
Could it be that Nikki’s excuse is that she, like Claudine Gay, isn’t that bright? That she’s just an arrogant-elitist?
Or is it, as South Dakota Gov. Noem explained it, “I just don’t know which Nikki Haley is going to show up every day. She’s a different person, depending on whatever works for her political agenda.”
And this is all while Nikki, and Gay, and Hillary do their Political Dance, and think we aren’t watching.
Hold the line, America.
Welcome to 2024.
Stay strong, Patriots.
