Post-debate news defies explanation for sane observers

Berl Falbaum

We have learned exclusively (you will read it here only) that Donald Trump, celebrating his alleged debate victory, has invited three of the world’s most prominent strongmen to a victory dinner in Springfield, Ohio — you know, the city where pets are being eaten by migrants.

Those invited were the very ones that Kamala Harris charged would have Trump for lunch if he were re-elected.

The three:  Hungary’s Prime Minister Viktor Mihály Orbán, Russia’s President Vladimir Putin, and North Korea’s Supreme Leader Kim Jong-un.

We tracked down the three to get their reaction to the debate and if they would accept Trump’s invitation.

Specifically, Trump claimed: “In Springfield, they’re eating the dogs. The people that came in, they’re eating the cats. They’re eating the pets of the people that live there. And this is what’s happening in our country. And it’s a shame.”

The three leaders agreed with the former president that he won the debate, almost quoting him verbatim that this was the “greatest debate victory in world history.”

They hedged, however, about going to dinner in Springfield.

We caught Orbán in a restaurant eating steak.  When we posed the question about Springfield, he covered his plate, which had a steak on it, with his napkin and said he was a vegetarian.  Then, he petted the dog at his feet, saying, “It’s OK, don’t worry. I’m not going.”

Putin said he had a previous engagement but he might reconsider if Trump moves the site.

Kim answered angrily, “No, I’m not going.  First, he says publicly that we fell in love without asking me and now he wants to feed me pet food…I mean pets as food.”

We tried to get a response from Trump campaign spokespeople to ask whether guests could order items off the menu or could they brown bag it.

At this writing, we have not received a reply.

But perhaps the biggest post-debate news is not just that we have major presidential and vice-presidential candidates touting that “migrants eat pets,” but that Georgia U.S. Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene believes Trump has aligned himself with a senior advisor that is too extreme.

Okay, read that sentence again.

Greene, a Trump’s Trumpite, blasted far-right media figure Laura Loomer for posting racist remarks about Kamala Harris’s Indian ancestry.  Loomer said that if Harris wins, the White House “will smell like curry.”

Loomer has posted sexist, homophobic, anti-Muslim and antisemitic social media messages, claiming 9/11 was “an inside job,” labeled Islam “a cancer,” accused Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’s wife of exaggerating breast cancer and charged that President Biden was involved in the attempt to assassinate Trump.

“This is appalling and extremely racist,” Greene lashed out. “It does not represent who we are as Republicans or MAGA. This does not represent President Trump. This type of behavior should not be tolerated ever.

“Her rhetoric and her tone does not match the base, does not match MAGA, it does not match most Republicans I know,” Greene added. “I am completely denouncing it.”

This coming from Greene makes the “migrants eat pets” charge seem moderate.

But Greene had nothing to say about Trump’s claim that migrants are devouring cats and dogs.  We deduce from her silence that she, if invited, would attend the Springfield victory dinner.

The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) sent a delegation to Springfield to protect pets.

In its statement, ASPCA said it was a nonpartisan organization and would protect animals belonging to Democrats and Republicans alike.

We also asked for comment from South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem who said while she shot her dog on the Noem farm, she never supported eating pets.

“We didn’t even eat the pig I shot,” said Noem.

More post-debate news:  Pop superstar Taylor Swift endorsed Harris right after the debate, distributing her decision on Instagram with a photo of her and a cat.  We learned she saved the cat from a migrant’s kitchen.

Her endorsement should carry some weight because she is also childless.

We also discovered she’s working on a song titled, “Don’t Even Take My Goldfish.”

Meanwhile, the mayor of Springfield, Rob Rue, issued what surely must be one of the strangest statements ever made by a local politician, telling the world, “…your pets are safe in Springfield, Ohio.”  For emphasis, he added, “Safe.”

The mayor and the city council are considering posting a new motto at Springfield’s border reading:

“The City Where Pets Can Be Pets.  They Are Forbidden Fruit and There Is No Plea Bargaining for Pet Consumption.”
