... at the same time, they whine and moan about Thanksgiving get-togethers as TOO political. Democrats are such intellectual cowards who fall apart if they are not afforded an artificially constructed safe space.
Tim Walz Just Wants to Have Thanksgiving Dinner ‘Without a S**tshow’

Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz is following in the steps of Kamala Harris in repeating the same speech over and over. A couple of weeks ago, Walz, "America's dad" with the "folksy demeanor," posted that he just wanted to have a normal Thanksgiving dinner without politics. "Remember the time when you could go to Thanksgiving with your relatives and not complain about politics the whole time?" he asked. "This election is a chance to bring up the joy and look to the future."
Well, by the time the Thanksgiving holiday arrives, hopefully the election should be done, over, and making way for Donald Trump to move back into The White House. If so, then yes ... Thanksgiving WILL be a time for joy and looking optimistically towards the future.
Good for him for working the word "joy" into that speech. He worked another word into Friday night's speech:
Josh Wingrove (@josh_wingrove) ~ Gov. Walz at a fundraiser tonight, per pool, on the stakes of the election: “I just want to go to Thanksgiving dinner with my relatives and not have a shitshow."
Walz is well-acquainted with sh!tshows - he's a walking, talking sh!tshow.
The fact is, you used to be able to have Thanksgiving dinner without politics until the liberals hijacked the holiday and gave you tips on how to deal with your crazy conservative uncle.
Just last year, the Biden-Harris campaign released a thread of talking points to use to respond to crazy MAGA nonsense at the dinner table:
Kamala HQ (@KamalaHQ) ~ Your handy guide for responding to crazy MAGA nonsense this Thanksgiving. A thread ...

The year before that, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre posted a "cheat sheet" to use to counter your MAGA relatives:
Karine Jean-Pierre (@PressSec) ~ It’s hard to quit talking politics cold turkey — even at Thanksgiving. Talk to your family from across the aisle, and across your dinner table, with this cheat sheet.

Hmmm ... if you were the one responsible for bringing up Biden's accomplishments - "top" or otherwise - this is how your Thanksgiving looked ...
This was years after the Democrats had come up with the idea of posting printable Thanksgiving placemats with gun control talking points on them: "This Thanksgiving, help set the table straight."
The fact is, it's the progressives who have hijacked Thanksgiving. We've been lectured by Molly Jong-Fast, POLITICO, and The Nation, which wanted to "decolonize" Thanksgiving and turn it into "Truthsgiving."
"Truthsgiving" would equate to an honest discussion about the fact that "the Democrat Party has degenerated into the Marxist, Anti-American Party."
What is this obsession Democrats have with family gatherings where people's political opinions might differ?
Back to Walz:
BartonBella (@BartonBella1) ~ {Replying to @josh_wingrove} He banned Thanksgiving get-togethers, but not violent riots ... I don't care what he wants.
ericontrarian (@eriContrarian) ~ {Replying to @josh_wingrove} LOL, this dude tried to ban people from going to Thanksgiving during Covid. Absolutely incredible.
Rob Alberts (@robertjalberts) ~ {Replying to @josh_wingrove} Walz makes his family stand at parade rest and call him Sergeant Major at the Thanksgiving dinner table.
Suburbane (@Chad_Kosciusko) ~ {Replying to @josh_wingrove} Shitlibs are calling off the supercilious lectures? Better late than never.
Matthieu “ne plus ultra” Koekkler (@koekkler) ~ {Replying to @josh_wingrove} Ironic, given that Barack Obama commanded his followers to disrupt family Thanksgiving events with Leftist politics.
Aldous Huxley's Ghost™ (@AF632) ~ {Replying to @josh_wingrove} Sounds like he's the problem, not his family.
That's always how it is when Democrats are involved.
Mandy (@carebearSMC) ~ {Replying to @josh_wingrove} [i]This is such a weird talking point.
Well, Walz is a weird, creepy dude, so ...
Harris and Walz are just going to continue giving us the unity that President Joe Biden promised.
Jo Clark (@JoClark70992650) ~ {Replying to @josh_wingrove} I'm so very glad my family doesn't have to put up with this guy on Thanksgiving.
Maybe if liberals could keep themselves in check, Thanksgiving dinner could be a pleasant experience. We look forward to Jean-Pierre posting this year's liberal talking points for Thanksgiving dinner.
