Guest essay by Eric Worrall
Before you dismiss this idea as too ridiculous to imagine, consider that a year ago many of us would have said the same thing about Joe Biden. Meghan Markle could be the perfect liberal candidate; claims to care about climate change, flies in a private jet, popular with liberals, breathtakingly entitled, a major thorn in the side of the British Royal Family, except for the tame royal who married her, and Oprah and the Hollywood set absolutely love her.
Is Meghan Markle already preparing a bid to be America’s first woman President? Duchess of Sussex will ‘use furore over Oprah interview to launch political career as she networks among Democrats’, claims senior Labour figure with strong links to Washington
- One senior Labour figure claimed she was networking among senior Democrats
- Networking said to be with view to building a campaign and fundraising teams
- In last US election, Harry and Meghan launched a thinly veiled attack at Trump
- If she made it to the White House, Meghan would be first female US President

Meghan Markle will use the furore over her interview with Oprah to launch a political career which could take her all the way to the White House, if rumours circulating around Westminster last week turn out to be accurate.
One senior Labour figure – a veteran of Tony Blair‘s Downing Street administration with strong links to Washington – claimed to The Mail on Sunday that Ms Markle, 39, was networking among senior Democrats with a view to building a campaign and fundraising teams for a tilt at the US Presidency.
Last night, a source close to the Duchess of Sussex declined to comment, but the couple have made little secret of their political beliefs.
During the US election last year they levelled a thinly veiled attack on Donald Trump by urging voters to ‘reject hate speech’, which a spokesperson for the couple described as ‘a call for decency’. Trump himself declared that he was ‘not a fan’ of Meghan, 39.
…
Fox News suggests Meghan is already networking with senior Democrats to secure funding for a bid for Presidency.
Meghan seems to have no problem keeping establishment greens onside, despite flaunting her wealth and privilege. When Meghan Markle faced criticism after flying to France on holiday by private jet, British pop legend Elton John rushed to defend her environmental credentials.
Consider a possible 2024 scenario. Joe Biden has retired or has stated he will not contest a second term due to ill health, leaving the uncharismatic Kamala Harris in the hot seat. Candidate Donald Trump is surging in the polls. Democrats are desperate to cling to power – they need someone with media profile, someone who can speak to their supporters, and maybe even sway a few swing voters.
Meghan Markle, with her sky high media profile, her impeccable green hypocrisy and her claim to being a victim of British royal racism could well be the logical choice for the 2024 Democrat Presidential candidate.
Meghan Markle as President? Makes about as much sense as Dementia Joe Biden as President.
When one cannot tell parody sites from reality, one has problems.
I checked the Babylon Bee to see if this was one of theirs, but no. The Onion? Nope
Must be tough running a parody site these days, how do you stay ahead of reality?
Woke, Radical, Green, Royal, and US President.
That’s a dog-whistle full house.
And here you are , a mindlessly yapping chihuahua. !
Ever notice how trolls can’t be bothered with actually responding, they always have to try and drag the conversation into their irrelevancy of choice.
That’s why The Bee started the Not the Bee site.
The BabylonBee tells the story:

Meghan Markle Inspires Millions Of Young Girls With Message That No Matter How Famous, Rich, And Powerful They Are, They Will Always Be Oppressed
Meghan And Harry Request That Everyone Please Respect Their Privacy And Also Make Sure To Tune In To ‘Keeping Up With The Markles’
Doesn’t pass the sniff test.
Fox is covering it.
https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/meghan-markle-for-president-oprah-interview-fallout
There you go. If Fox is covering it… it doesn’t pass the sniff test.
And yet again, the progressive declares that anything it disagrees with is fake news.
BTW, how long until CNN fully covers the Cuomo scandals?
Flak + whaddaboutism, right over the target sir. The ack ack guns are going to be busy today defending those Worrell fake-news factories, what?
The MORONIC comments from Loy-dodo continue.
Thinks that because some other moron makes an idiotic comment that gets shot down, it means it was near the target
Meanwhile Loy-dodo misses every time with his PETTY and EMPTY attempted slimes, because he has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to back up anything he/she/it ever says
Absolutely NOTHING to counter the FACTS.. EVER. !!
Just mindless puerile 5-year-old tantrums. !!
In the mind of a progressive, agreement means they are right, and disagreement means they are even more right.
“BTW, how long until CNN fully covers the Cuomo scandals?”
I hope soon If he is a predator he should go. Unlike you I don’t defend people based on their political affiliation. A scum bag is a scum bag. They are on both sides… as there are good people. But you live in the “right good,” “left bad” world. How sad of you.
Except of course CNN won’t cover it, which was the whole point of Mark’s comment
Paul figured it out in one hit…
Simple is not really that bright.
Basic comprehension is beyond him.
When a progressive gets caught in a lie, their first instinct is to change the subject.
I have never defended anyone who wasn’t innocent. Unlike you I don’t decide guilt or innocence based on political affiliation.
In the world of a progressive, all those on the right are guilty of something, you just have to make up a charge to fit.
“Show me the man and I’ll show you the crime.”
Josef Stalin
Leftists never change.
Behold Simon, the official CNN Shill.
The sex scandal is just a cover for the thousands of people he murdered via Covid. None of the left media are covering that.
Simon, how racists of you. Oh wait, I forgot, it’s only racist (to a leftist idiot like you) when someone on the right says that there are good people on multiple sides..
And your comment fails the 101 elementary logic test.
So is CTH
“The Report of Meghan Markle “Preparing a Bid To Become President” is BURYING THE LEDE“
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2021/03/13/the-report-of-meghan-markle-preparing-a-bid-to-become-president-is-burying-the-lede/
I note that rightly they regard the idea as entertainment.
I’m sure O’Biden would sniff her in a flash.
She’s a rather too old for Biden.. he prefers sub-teens !
Yeah, you’re right. I’ve noticed that too. Whadda creep.
And THIS is what we have for a president??
He would have to wait in line after Trump.
Simple at it again..
No evidence at all.
And NOT little girls, like sniffer-Joe. !
He’s also changing the subject, since he knows he can’t defend Biden.
As usual, Simon determines guilt or innocence based on political affiliation, all the while declaring that he never does.
More lies.
If you people didn’t have projection and logical fallacies, you’d have no way to communicate. You’re pathetic, Simon.
I’ve followed the debacle that is Meghan Markle’s marriage to Prince Harry. She’s a sociopathic narcissist- and there have been rumors of her wanting to run for US president for more than a year.
I see where Meghan and Harry’s favorability poll ratings have dropped substantially in the last week or so.
You can’t fool all the people all the time.
Long live the Queen!
That from an American admirer.
Pelosi mark II ???
Me-Me-Me-Me-Meghan would be an unmitigated disaster
Exactly! She may not be demented, but as a Liberal she IS mentally deficient.
your repeating yourself there 😉
If that happens the UK will probably seek a defence agreement with China. But don’t worry Germany, Italy and France will probably be on your side. Remember they all played a big part in the last war.
They must believe they can replace the Kardashians as American’s “Celeb Royalty Freak Show”. Who’s next? A Brit based “Judge Meggie”? Maybe a competing “Meaghan deWindsor” opposite Ellen?
One thing though, with Biden* in office, any mental person can aspire to win the Presidency? For real.
Concerned mother, worried about son not getting security detail, seeks alternative position to provide that protection.
Who would argue against that?
I thought the concern was that he didn’t get a royal title?
They *turned down* a Royal title for Archie. It was offered.
They want all the perks of working royals – with NONE of the responsibilities.
Just what ‘responsibility’ do the Royals have, anyway??
*no nude photos (past of present)
*don’t wear see through skirts
*respect the queen (or king)
That’s about it.
It seems that Meghan’s son is not yet eligible to be given a royal title, but has not been excluded from getting one when he is eligible.
He’s a little too far removed from the Throne right now, but that is not a permanent condition and will change as time goes by.
The “Parody-Reality Inversion” continues unabated.
She’s 200/1 in the betting. Oprah has come out better, on 100/1, while AOC rates 50/1. Kamala is the favourite on 4/1.
Watching the odds is a guide to public sentiment.
Although after the last election, odds may no longer be important.
Well she did play a lawyer on TV.
Dementia Joe graduated 76th out of 85 despite plagiarizing an article in law school. Therefore he technically was a lawyer but he never played one in real life nor on TV.
So far, for the past 47+ years, Joe has plagiarized everything! And I mean EVERYTHING he has done!
It’s the one thing he excels at.
Markle must be the first youngest demented presidential hopeful. To think that Kamala Harris – whose background does not fit into required presidential qualifications – would let this little slut run for the presidency? Next to Markle Harris is a political genius. But Markle’s only qualification – same as Harris’ – is that both slept their way to the top. In these days of Dumb Democrat Disaster -the only way to the presidency is via the bedroom. Forget Smoke-filled Rooms. Forget debates about how qualified to be president. What counts is the number of orgasms you deliver!!! Markle at least delivered a baby, and more to come. Harris is barren. But sex lives on! There you go! No other qualifications required. Can’t wait to see the cat fight betweem the two unqualified ambitious beyond Black “Ladies.”
Eric,
You sure know how to ruin my day.
Jim
Just the bearer of news Jim ;-).
That’s what we need, another climate expert in the White House.
If you really want a female president, choose Kristi Noem. At least she’s got guts, unlike the male Republicans.
Ah yes Kristi Noem, the leader who lead her people to have the second highest rate of Covid in the US.
When you count total deaths per 100K, SD is eighth at 215. New York is highest at 268
Simple simon NEVER let’s FACTS get in the way of a LIE. !
They are 8th in the US for deaths per million and second for cases. Still a bad count for a state with a small population that should have found it easier to protect their citizens. But because of her week (pro business stuff the people) leadership the people suffered.
WRONG again, simpleton.
More testing will do that. !
Your ignorance is shining like a putrid sickly-green ooze.
All well and good … but exactly WHO was dying in SD? And WHO were catching the ChiCom Flu? What are the demographics of the spread in SD? Where is the “granular” data promised by Dr. Birx? Contact tracing?
Broad statistics without detail (unlike 15,000 NY dead in Nursing homes) or context are worse than stupid. They’re dangerous.
“But because of her {Noem’s] weak (pro business, stuff the people) leadership the people suffered.”
Kristi Noem will get re-elected in a landslide in 2022, is my prediction.
I think 2022 is going to be a big year for Republicans in every category. Biden is showing everyone just how crazy the radical Left really is and is alienating a lot of people.
Noem said the other day when asked if she was thinking about a presidential run in 2024, that she was thinking about running for governor again in 2022.
I want Trump to run for the House of Representatives in 2022, and get elected as Speaker of the House and replace Nancy Pelosi. Now, wouldn’t that be justice! I think so. 🙂
Or, if Trump thinks current House Republican leader, McCarthy is doing a good job, then Trump could get himself elected to take the place of Liz Cheney in the House Repubican leadership, and let McCarthy be Speaker of the House.
This would work out ok because Trump would only be there for two years, and then he runs for president in 2024.
If the Republicans have control of the House in 2022, then a lot of the damage Biden has done can be undone, especially, if Republicans regain control of the U.S. Senate, too. Biden is on course to make both those things happen.
Yes, I’m indulging in wishful thinking. But you never know what’s going to happen next. All those things are possiblities.
Noem’s “crime” was acting on the premise that most people will do the right thing if given sufficient information. She said that she trusted South Dakotans to behave rationally.
That idea is threatening to those who believe in the “command and control” state in which no one can act rationally except under compulsion. Ideas and commands flow from top to bottom. Without the threat of force, the hoi polloi are no more than animals.
No other governor had the guts to take that position. For that reason alone, she should become president.
Progressives don’t trust anyone who doesn’t work for government. That’s why they need regulations that cover every aspect of day to day lives for us, while allowing those who work for government to ignore those same regulations at will.
Noem has shown a lot of common sense.
According to Simon, allowing people to keep their jobs is pro-business and anti-people.
Of course even if Republicans take back both houses, they can do nothing since they will not be able to override an O’Biden veto.
Now if TRUMP! Republicans take the house and senate in 22, hold it in 24 and TRUMP! is re-elected, then 50 + 1 in the senate and 0ver 50% in the house and pass ANYTHING they want in one “uuge” bill to wipe out everything the democrats did, plus all welfare programs replaced by block grants to each state, equal dollars per US citizen resident. Let NY, Cali, etc. make up the difference in their excessive welfare payouts. Also, all federal funds for education vouchered to the parents of citizen children only. Non-citizens can pay their own way, or the lib states can pick up the slack. Last but not least, overturn the SCOTUS decision in the 60s that said you need to prove malice to sue for libel, and include provisions that any correction needs to be on the same page, same font as the article title, same person, same time, same weekday on TV and radio. And as many times as it was reported, with reporters required to verify their stories, not allowed to just reference another reporter. Russia, Russia, Russia. Dems may take back the house but like with the repubs after 2022, will be stuck till 2028.
My favorite plan though is, if repubs take back the house and senate, impeach every liberal overreaching judge and run the trials continuously, with them held in DC, until they quit or retire. The charges, perjury and treason, failure to uphold their oath of office. All the activists who have been repeatedly overturned and those who “overruled” the SCOTUS, i.e. ignored SCOTUS decisions. 4 years of lowered taxes and almost everyone feeling no pain from the changes, people will begin to realize they don’t need to pay excessively for welfare.
Doing nothing is an improvement over doing the wrong thing. Being in control of both houses means controlling what bills make it to Biden’s desk. Even if the “good” bills don’t survive O’Biden’s veto, at least the “bad” bill won’t be getting there to be rubberstamped into law.
“Of course even if Republicans take back both houses, they can do nothing since they will not be able to override an O’Biden veto.”
If the Republicans can control the House of Representatives, then they control the federal budget. Nothing gets spent unless the House approves of it. Biden will have to cooperate.
And if the Republicans gain the House majority, then they should start writing laws giving the president the line-item veto, and they need to reform the way bills are handled. They should not be lumping every boondoogle they can think of into one bill and make the president either sign it or veto the whole bill.
I can see Trump as Speaker of the House getting up there and declaring a new day has dawned in the way the House of Representatives does business.
Can you imagine what the radical Democrats would be thinking? They would all be down on their knees screaming at the sky like that picture of the guy after Hillary lost.
The Democrats would probably boycott attending the House sessions. That would be a good thing. It would be a much more pleasant atmosphere if the radical Democrats absent themselves. Don’t let the door hit you in the behind.
As an aside: This HR1 bill that Nancy Pelosi is promoting will in effect legalize all the fraudulent activities that took place during the 2020 presidential election, thus giving the Democrats more opportunities to cheat and steal elections.
The U.S. Constitution says that State legislators have the final say on how their electors are selected, not the U.S. Congress.
I’m am assuming most of these federal voter requirements they propose are unconstitutional and will be ruled that way.
But if the Courts don’t find the election laws unconstituional, and the Courts have not given us any confidence that they are following the law, but are instead covering their butts politically, so that’s up in the air right now.
If the U.S. Congress imposes new election rules on States that allow for cheating and stealing of elections, then as a last resort, State legislators could decide that *they* would choose who their States electors will vote for and not the popular vote. The U.S. Constitution gives State legislators the final say.
Nullifying the popular vote might get State legislators voted out of office next time around, or it might get them more votes if the people of their State support their actions.
The Democrat-controlled U.S. Congress may try to impose unacceptable voting rules on States, but States have rights and States can chose presidential electors without going through a popular vote.
Only in emergencies, but this might just be that emergency. Preventing the stealing of our Republic is an emergency.
As another aside: This Democrat effort (HR1) to steal the next presidential election by enacting into law all the methods they used to cheat in the last election may not get very far.
First of all, most of these new laws are probably unconstitutional and will certainly be challenged in Court.
Second of all, and more important, is that the 2022 elections are not a presidetial election so most of these new laws that allow Democrats to cheat won’t apply.
I think the odds are very good that Republicans will take control of the House of Representatives in 2022. Then they can deal with all these election changes the Democrat Socialists are trying to shove down our throats.
The first order of business is to straighten out the election laws in the batttleground States. This requires action on the part of State legislators, and from the headlines I’m seeing, this is starting to happen.
The courts have already ruled on this. Only a constitutional change can give the president a line item veto.
While anything is possible, I don’t think it very probable that Trump would be interested in being in Congress. He’s too use to being the man in charge rather than being one of 435.
Well, Trump has to do something between now and 2024. I think him becoming the Speaker of the House would be a perfect stepping stone for him in 2024.
The Republican Party needs Trump’s active input to keep them on the Straight and Narrow and being Speaker would be perfect in 2022.
I don’t know that Trump is contemplating this, although I would urge him to think about it, but I think there is about a 100 percent chance of Trump being elected to the House of Representives if he chose to run.
That leaves whether the Republicans can regain the majority in the House of Representatives. If they can’t, then Trump would be much less effectve, but if they do win the majority, I think Trump would almost be guaranteed to be elected Speaker. McCarthy may have to step aside for a couple of years.
Speaker Trump could fix a lot of problems between 2022 and 2024, if he had this kind of power.
You know the idea that Trump might be back in the thick of things is going to drive the radical Democrats nuts. 🙂
Tom, I’m sorry but you need to get serious here. Even if Trump wanted to run for House of Repesentative (which he’s never indicated a desire to do), while it’s likely he would win such a race, that won’t make him speaker, it would only make him 1 of 435 members of the house.
Without Republicans in control of the house, Rep Trump would have ZERO chance of being speaker. With Republican’s in control, his chances of being speaker between 2022 and 2024 is still pretty close to ZERO, and if you think otherwise you don’t understand how the Speakership is chosen.
Name one freshman congressperson who immediately became speaker. You can’t because it’s never happened, and it likely never will, even if that freshman congressperson is Donald J Trump.
And BTW, you don’t even need to be a member of the house of representatives to be Speaker. The constitution (article I section II) only says the house shall choose their speaker and other officers, not that the person choose has to be a member of the house. In the past, Former Secretary of State Colin Power and Senator Rand Paul have both received votes in elections for House Speaker, though no one outside of house members has ever garnered enough votes to be a serious contender let alone win the speakership. So you’d have better luck wishing the Republicans get control and pick Trump for speaker than wishing Trump would run for an office he’s never shown interest in running for.
“Name one freshman congressperson who immediately became speaker.”
Trump wouldn’t be just another freshman.
I would bet money if a vote were taken among current Republican represenatives in the House today for who they would prefer as a Speaker of the House, that Trump would win hands down.
He might not get 100 percent of the Republican vote, the 10 Republicans who need to be primaried next time, such as Liz Chensy, won’t vote for him, but everyone else would.
Trump as a member of the House of Representatives, and Speaker, is a done deal if he wants to go that direction, imo.
Speaker Trump! Isn’t that delicious!
Let’s see: Speaker Trump could unseat the horrible Nancy Pllosi and resume congressional investigations of the traitorous actions of the Obama-Biden administration, with their corrupting of the FBI, Justice Department and U.S. Intelligence agencies into weapons to use against the political oppostion, the Republicans.
Win-win.
The high-lockdown states tended to do the worst. The low or no lockdown states are all over the range. So there doesn’t seem to be a best way to handle it, unless your economy is important too.
Citizens should protect themselves, if they’re concerned.
This was obviously the plan from the moment they decided to leave the royal family and move to the US. Harry was never likely to be king and the wokists believe he would make a great first gentleman.
Next they have to get over the sobriquet handed them by a letter writer her. The “Ginge” and “Whinge” duo.
Ha!
Now you’ve made my day.
Perhaps the GOP ought to put Kermit the Frog in opposition to her – you could have a genuine puppet government. Oh, hang on…
This was in the works before they ever got married. (Based on the dates of filings for websites)

Equity I tell you, equity.
Ok, but considering the overall level of intelligence among White House staffers, how will we know which “two idiots” you’re referring to?
I’m pretty certain Kamala has a cot in the presidential bedroom … just in case she’s needed.
The President and the moron who got bit by his dog.
Did you see where Kamala has a mark she stands on when Biden gives a speech?
I watched a speech Biden gave about a week ago, and Kamala was standing about 10 feet behind and to the right of the president and there was a nice white mark on the floor right between her feet. She was on her mark.
And I have seen the same thing at another location this week.
I guess vice presidents are too stupid to adequately socially distance themselves so they need a mark on the floor.
She will need to elbow aside Kamala Harris first.
Mr. Mohr: Good insight. And Andy Cuomo is finding oout how sharp those elbows are for potential rivals of Kamy.
Meghan is not Royal any more. The Queen removed that title.
I used “Royal” in this sense to mean “someone connected to the Royal Family”.
I thought you might have been using it in the toilet paper sense.
now that’s one way to cover your a$$et$
As ‘Beyond the Fringe’ put it: ‘more Regal, than Royal’.
She needs to remove the rest of the titles. There have been petitions in Sussex to remove the Dukedom from Harry. There have been petitions in UK – to remove HRH Prince __ from Harry, and to remove him and his children from the line of succession. It’s even come up for a vote in Parliament. . . They sent it to the Queen stating she has the authority to do it herself. Basically – they’re all wusses.
Brilliant! You’ve managed to stick the knife into Biden, Markle and the Greens in one article. But I’m sorry WUWT is becoming a political satire blog. It just means that readers will assume that all the serious articles on climate and science generally are satire too. That’s the problem with fake news, once it becomes commonplace to invent and spread it, then no-one believes anything is true.
Most people are smart enough to handle more than one topic per site.
I thought WUWT was trying to put a bit of commonsense in to the global warming debate? To provide solid information to those people who are not ‘smart enough’ to understand the complexity of some of the issues, or who are on the fence? So why provide ammunition to those who want to knock the site as denialists/fake news? Their minds may never change, but people who are seeking genuine and reliable information about climate change may be negatively influenced by silly articles like this.
Yawn,
Tom can’t cope with a bit of mockery of the greenie agenda and its followers.
So sad. !
Mr. Foley: I disagree. Activists recruit celebrities to their cause to remove commonsense from the “debate” (BTW, what debate?), with great success. This should be opposed, and is opposed by this site, as part of putting common sense before the visitors. There’s no fake news here (a term created by the right and it worked, so the left is trying to co-opt it now, please don’t help them), but that won’t stop tr0lls from tr0lling.
Here at WUWT we talk about many things, not just the stuff you are interested in.
If you want a site start your own, that way you can have the complete control that you seem to desire.
There was this wild and crazy Toronto city councilor named Doug Ford, brother of mayor Bob Ford.
When it was mooted that Doug wanted to become the province’s premier, I expressed the opinion that he was living in cloud cuckoo land.
He’s now the premier.
Does Markle want to be President? Sure, lots of people want to be President. Does she stand a chance? Crazier things have happened … well, OK that’s pretty crazy. Refer to my remarks about Doug Ford above.
Some people get their panties in a wad whenever others waste time talking about things they have no interest in.
Variety is the spice of life. The fact that skeptics have a sense of humour and can leaven hard science with some lightness has always been one of WUWT’s drawing cards. We even have our own cartoonist.
I think it is funny – see my first sentence! But I also think it is counter-productive.
That is what I was responding to. There can never be enough brilliant political satire. Surely you don’t believe that AGW or “climate change panic” has anything to do with science, do you? I mean really DO YOU?
I think your comments are counter-productive..
A waste of space, actually.
But feel free to keep making them.
One thing about it, Tom, people can read the titles of the articles and get a sense of what they are about. Just pick out the subjects dealing with climate change and skip the rest.
There will probably be some level of politics in any article about Human-caused Climate Change. The alarmists have politicized it and it has to be delt with.
I have expressed the same disquiet, the site is far less interesting than it used to be. I don’t visit often these days.
Plus the availability of downvotes reveals the juvenile mindset of many of the contributors. Even on Breitbart you don’t see much downvoting on most articles.
Bring back the old WUWT, I miss it.
I was really surprised to get so many downvotes. I did think the post was funny, but out of place here. Not sure why my fairly pragmatic comment struck such a nerve.
It has reached the stage with WUWT that if you don’t get any downvotes, then you didn’t say anything interesting. I used to be painfully aware of being far less well informed than other posters, now you wade through dreck.
You haven’t said anything interesting…
Just whinged.!
How dare those plebe’s talk about something that doesn’t interest me.
Well, she would be a nice fit for Harris’s VP. They are both equal in their honesty and in their qualifications for office.
(Do I really need the sarc tag?)
You’ll certainly need it if you’re addressing Loydo and Simon. Like all Leftists, they aren’t terribly bright and they are devoid of any sense of irony.
Meghan can read a speech like Biden did and pledge to be “truthful” 5 times.
“Before you dismiss this idea as too ridiculous”
…
The ridiculous is expected from this ridiculous web site.

This blog used to be informative and educational. Not so anymore.
Boo Hoo, this site doesn’t measure up to the standards of the self styled elite. How shall we ever survive the shame?
Poor empty Roger.
Never even a smelly whiff of science.

Lighten up Rog, poopsie. There has always been a touch of humour here to lighten the burden of those like you.
Whine much…
How about a little Mr Hankey!!
Unfortunately, these days “science”, and in particular “climate science”, has to be considered within within the prevailing political framework. To do otherwise, would be totally bewildering. It is only by considering a commentators political and ideological perspective, that one can understand how some individuals and groups, can possibly hold the beliefs and opinions that they do. That is assuming, of course, that the individual has exercised any cognitive ability at all, and isnt just stampeding with the herd, along with the vast majority of the population
…”how some individuals and groups, can possibly hold the beliefs and opinions that they do.”
Well, take the most outlandish story ever told, namely religion, and ask yourself how billions of people can believe in this stuff. It seems that us humans are easily indoctrinated.
Or, maybe us humans don’t know everything there is to know about the universe.
The ability of humans to convince themselves that they know absolutely everything they need to know appears to be infinite.
Here’s a question for you, Art:
What explains the phenomenon of twins feeling each other’s pain, even though they are physically separated by distance, and were not aware that their twin was experiencing pain until they themselves started experiencing the pain?
Something unexplained seems to be happening under the radar.
Mr. Taguchi: A serious question to you and Mr. Foley: Have you heard of “climate communications”? Can you describe it? I’ll cut to the chase here- should we oppose climate communications? If so, how? Mocking the celebs who swallow AGW whole and refuse to look at science that debunks it is, I put it to you, legitimate counter information.
The home page has several science articles posted. You can’t just read those, ignore these, and let us have a laugh at the expense of those who (frivolously) oppose this site? Your complaints should be directed to the kids on your lawn,
This is one article, which still has a tenuous connection to green politics, is just one out of the past fifteen or so true to the mission of a science site. I can handle that.
Betting has opened on Biden’s chances of getting through his first/only term. link
Harris will probably become President some time in the next four years. That means she will probably be able to run for that office in the next election.
So, the first time Markle might be able to run is in 2028. That gives her some time to build an organization and hone her chops. She’s no Donald though. She’s not even an AOC.
AOC, being an ideologue, could self-destruct some time in the next eight years. Otherwise, my wild ass guess is that she could smack Markle down real hard. Markle, being devoid of any compelling skills and knowledge, won’t even know what hit her.
Why AOC, you ask. She’s got more in common with Donald Trump than either of them would be comfortable admitting. Douglas Adams was seriously prescient when he created Zaphod Beeblebrox.
I actually fear and loathe AOC, all the more so because I think she could become the leader of the free world.
My dream is that some time in the next eight years, the wheels will fall off the CAGW wagon and leave the likes of AOC screaming in the wilderness.
AOC is the type of ideologue who would think that jailing anyone who disagrees with her is a good way to run a country.
She makes more money than you
Once again, when Brian discovers he can’t actually refute anything written, he endeavors to change the subject.
Then again, that’s the only strategy that Brian is capable of using.
You know, the only thing I don’t like about living in your head is the echo. There is so much empty space in here the echo is annoying.
PS, are you jealous that AOC makes more money than you?
You really are a most unpleasant man, arent you
Now all Brainiac has left are his standard lames.
Yup, Brian has admitted that he is incapable of making any substantive comments. Go ahead, keep playing with yourself, at least it keeps you off the streets.
brainless’s bravado egotistical facade has been displaced,
… leaving just a PETTY puerile little child-mind. !
And that’s important because?
Because progressives spend all their time angry about people who make more than they do.
Brainiac is back, trying to divert as per usual.
Unlike the jealous left, those of us on the right don’t care who makes more money than whom. Indeed, we celebrate the fact that people are capable of making as much money as they put their efforts into making.
BTW, her salary, as a member of the house, is $174k/year. Depending on what markW does for a living, it’s actually possible for him to make as much or even more than that if he wanted to. Judging by the intelligence (or rather lack there of) level of your posts, on the other hand, I doubt you’re capable of making a tenth of whatever markW makes, so its no wonder you’re so jealous over others making more than you.
Biden’s odds of surviving a full term have been lengthening. He was a 2/3rds chance a few days ago. Now down to about 55%.
Worrall scrapes the bottom of the barrel for this post.
Brian once again can only whine about what others are choosing to talk about.
His poor ego can’t handle the fact nobody wants to talk about the things he considers important.
“His poor ego can’t handle the fact nobody wants to talk about the things he considers important.”
Like how catalytic converters make the air cleaner than the ambient air?
Hey Simon, isn’t it fun living in MarkW’s head? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DYbONdUEmGQ
There certainly isn’t room inside yours, brainless one
Nothing can exist in such a vast EMPTY space.
Isn’t it fascinating how most of our trolls have completely given up trying to be relevant. All they can do is whine, throw out personal insults and desperately attempt to change the subject.
Mark always goes to the troll thing when he can’t cope.
You never cope, simpleton
All you do is mindless moronic trolling.
Anything else is totally beyond your capabilities.
Troll gets upset about being accurately labeled.
With recycled lames, repeated over-and-over.
“Isn’t it fascinating how most of our trolls have completely given up trying to be relevant.”
I’ve noticed that.
I think that’s because they don’t have any evidence to back up their wild claims and they know that’s what will be requested if they try to get technical. So they give up trying to get technical. It’s a dead-end street for alarmists.
I’ve certainly noticed how snarky and bitter the usual WUWT trolls like Simon and Loydo are becoming. They are failing, and they know it.
Desperation, it appears
One could always place bets on when his single synapse will fire again.

EMPTY = Vacuous
Interesting, responding to someone is proof that they are living in your head? Brian, have you ever had a thought that made sense in the real world?
BTW, Brian, I notice that you and Simon have both been responding to me. Is that proof that I’m am living in your brain?
Still beating the same dead lame, Brainiac? Get some new material PDQ.
Only in large cities. Not that you have ever cared about pesky details.
You never mentioned large cities before. So are we talking large smog filled cities where people huddle round coal fired power stations for breakfast then then suck on the tailpipe of an old Ford V8. Are you saying the air is cleaner than that, after going through a modern day catalytic converter? Just wondering why the city think was never mentioned before? I think you are “making it up” again Mark
Another IGNORANT post showing that simpleton hasn’t the VAGUEST CLUE what he is talking about. !
Actually I did. But I’m not surprised that you didn’t notice.
Comprehension was never your thing.
Yep, Markel as president really would be the SCRAPING THE BOTTOM OF THE BARREL
They have already reached the dregs and the slime with Biden/Harris…
See, you can get something correct..
even if only by accident. !
If you don’t like the topic, you could always go hang out with the six people who frequent realclimate.org.
Yer an idiot, Brainiac.
Throwing fetid red meat at the WUWT-dweebs is hilarious.
As usual, Brian can’t be bothered to actually talk about the topic at hand. Instead he decides that the only path to relevancy for him, is to insult everyone who isn’t Brian Jackson.
I just luv being inside your head … https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DYbONdUEmGQ
Griff says HI.
Poor brainless egotist..
…. doesn’t like it when someone points out his lack of everything. !
You really are a PETTY little worm, aren’t you.
I just love the way you have to try and change the subject every time you get caught in a lie.
Dont feed the troll
4 U MarkW: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DYbONdUEmGQ
Yawn , brianless chucks a puerile child’s tantrum. !
Can’t stand it when someone questions your unsupportable egotistical self-worth, hey !!
Does the fact that you not only feel the need to respond to many of my posts, but you also have to make the same inane and irrelevant point in each of them indiate that
1) You haven’t the wit to actually come up with something new.
2) I”m living in your head? After all, you claim that the fact that I respond to your lies is proof that you are living in mine.
Brian may think he is a wit. At best he is only half right.
Gotta love that WUWT humor!
Tack a ‘t’ onto the front of the wit…
and change the “I” to an “a” and you’ll go from what Brian thinks he is to what he actually is. 😉
That vapid pustule, Brian, seems to have got it reversed. The regulars of WUWT are living in his head and our collective laughter is a continuous buzz there.
He can’t escape…. his BASELESS EGO won’t let him.
Its FUN watching his decline even further into EMPTY WASTED INSANITY of self-hatred and despite.
Now down to posting lame vid links…
….. and here’s brian …. maggots* and all.
… *the maggots are the part with the brains and personality.
No, it’s actually rather boring, and shows you have no constructive comments to make
No doubt, Dominion is already reconfiguring their machines.
The Dominion that is suing Rudi and Sidney? That dominion? I can’t wait for that court case.
It’ll be so interesting when it comes to Discovery. My money is on Dominion quietly folding at that point, but we’ll see.
Indeed. They’ll delay like Mann for as long as they can (having already reaped the PR from filing the suits, which is what the suits were really all about), which, as you’ve seen, can be many, many years hoping to wear the other side down for a settlement. The suit will never reach discovery. The process is the punishment!
Check this one out, Simon-Shill, if you dare:
https://dominionclassaction.com/
That’s a site looking to raise money against Dominion. I hope hope they raise a huge amount… then loose. No excuses then.
So the lawsuit filed in Colo. District court is fake?
Is this what you are now claiming?
2024?
Does this mean the top Democrats are admitting that Joe won’t be president by then?
Is this you admitting Joe is the president?
In name only.
The puppet strings are stretched tight !
Is this Simon admitting that he has nothing constructive to say?
The Democrats remain convinced that the only qualification Trump has was that he was a rich celebrity. So it’s hardly surprising that they would look for a rich celebrity of their own.
Don’t need her, Biden defeated Trump.
And yetanother inane, irrelevant comment.
Hmmmm … well, actually no, he didn’t. O’Biden really had very little to do with what happened last November 3rd. I’d be surprised if he got more than 35 to 40 M votes.
“ I’d be surprised if he got more than 35 to 40 M votes.”
But let’s be honest that’s because you have trouble counting… unlike Dominion who according to the courts, got it exactly right.
Courts never looked at it.
Why LIE about it simpleton ???
Since when can judges count?
As Uncle Joe Stalin observed “It’s not the votes that count it’s who counts the votes that counts”.
Cheers
Mike
As usual, when the real facts don’t match what he wants to believe, Simon just makes some up.
No court examined the data. Most of them punted by declaring they didn’t have jurisdiction or that there wasn’t enough time left to hear the case.
You people live in a dream world. The evidence of fraud is overwhelming. The judiciary feared the reaction of the Left to create mass hysteria and insurrection if Trump’s true win was made public.
Zhou Bidan?
The empty-headed shell with the dark eyes?
Who is this woman, and why is she famous? I’d never heard of her until she married Prince Harry.
She was a C or D level TV personality on some pointless little sit-com. She’s a social climber who got lucky … no class. Harry was immature, naive and an easy target
Who’d a-thunk that Wallis Simpson would be the class act of the two.
As for Dementia Joe, I call him Kermit’cause he’s a green sock puppet.
Ain’t that the truth.I was think along the same lines. These women believed they could just snap up an eligible prince and get star billing in a dynasty that has survived nearly 1000 years of women just like them
>>
Who is this woman . . . ?
<<
She was on the USA show Suits. It was stupid entertainment about crooked lawyers. Apparently reruns are on Netflix, if you’re so inclined.
Jim
No, I will dismiss it.
I’ve come across the idiom ‘cometh the hour, cometh the man’ in relation to Churchill becoming prime minister at a critical moment during WW2.
Here we possibly have ‘cometh the hour, cometh the woman’, I think she is perfect for the current times.
Are you sure the world really needs a low class social climber who managed to fool a crown prince?
Mine was a satirical comment on the current shallowness of politics and culture in general.
Makes as much sense as Ronald Regan becoming president or Jess Ventura being a governor.
You mean that the governor of California has no qualifications to be president?
Or are you just demonstrating that hatred is all you have left?
No but if was ok for Regan to switch from being an actor to a much loved and idolised politican then surely others can do it as well. It is the Amercian dream after all.
Reagan spent decades in the political realm before running for president.
The fact that you refuse to see that as in any form relevant is just further proof that you have no intention of making an honest argument.
Who is to say Ms Markel won’t do the same?
50 years from now.. ok , that is more sensible. !
gees you are SO DUMB, izzy !!
He’s just trying to sound smart, that always makes one sound dumb when you don’t have the brain capacity to pull it off.
According to the article, she’s running in 2024. Hardly time to spend decades debating politics with the sharpest minds in the country, plus spend two terms as a governor of one of our largest states.
Are you really as desperate as your posts make you sound?
I suggest you watch some videos of Reagan debating his opponents. He was vastly sharper and more astute than you think.
And now Izzy weighs in with his round of recycled lames.
Reagan had a long involvement in US politics before becoming president and wasn’t an air-head like ‘princess’ Meghan.
President Markle would be a perfect public distraction for the oligarchy that currently run US.
Just how long an involvement does one need? Trump had none and became president.
Trump created and ran massive corporations. That’s better training than being a senator.
Are you even capable of making an honest argument anymore?
To be fair Trump ran massive corporations into the ground. He managed to go bankrupt running casinos. And as many others have pointed out Trump would be richer today if he had taken the money his father had left him and invested it in the stock market. He was a failure as a business man. He is a genius at marketing himself and uses social media significantly better than any other current politican but he was a failure as a businessman.
So hard for you that Trump happens to be a billionaire,
Glad you think that is a failure as a businessman..
But what does it make a petty, whinging non-entity like you ?
Izzy-is-a-never-was… and never-will-be
It is very easy to be a billionaire when your rich father leaves you all his money. It doesn’t automatically make you a good or decent person though.
And now your PETTY leftist jealousy surfaces.
You are close to being the MOST PATHETIC PERSON in the world, Izzy !!
Trump has made HIS OWN FORTUNE many times over..
GET OVER IT, little child.
A progressive makes his money the honest way. He has government steal money from those who work and give it to him.
His father didn’t leave him billions.
It really is sad the way progressives hate anyone who is more successful than they are. (Which is just about anyone with a job.)
Just because other progressives have made stupid comments about Reagan, doesn’t make those comments right.
The fact that he has been successful at all in business puts him above just about all Democrat who went straight from college into politics.
All Markle has done is open her legs for ex-prince what-his-name.
Trump was talking North Korea policy on “Meet the Press” back in about 1994.
Trump is a little smarter than you think he is.
Trump’s foreign policy positions were positions I supported. I thought and think Trump sees the Big Picture better than anyone I have seen in a long while. That’s a major reason I support him now.
Meghan Markel wouldn’t know the first thing about the Big Picture. Nor does Biden or Harris or just about any Democrat and not a lot of Republicans.
Some Republicans are starting to tune in the Big Picture a little bit because of Trump, but we have a long way to go, and Trump would be our best teacher. without a doubt.
Progressives in general, are psychologically incapable of recognizing anyone who disagrees with them as having any positive aspects.
Ronald Reagan actually started the trend of celebrities becoming state governors. He was a governor of California before he ran for president. If you’re saying that being a state governor doesn’t qualify someone to be president, then you’re ignoring a whole lot of historical precedent and ruling out quite a few past presidents in the process.
It would seem that you are the one who is not making sense.
Reagan was also president of the screen actors guild, and spent decades delivering political commentary, which kept him informed about the topics of the day.
Like most progressives, Izaak can’t be bothered coming up with arguments that make sense.
No. All I am saying is that there is a well trodden route going from actor to President.
You are as UNINFORMED as a day old maggot, izzy-so-DUMB !
Reagan trod a long hard political path, becoming well versed in politics.
Get over it.
Reagan was a two term Governor of California. But you probably do not know that.
Reagan had more brain cells working at the end of his eight years than Zhou Bidan has at the beginning of his “presidency”.
Like most progressives, Izaak can’t handle anything complicated, so he simplifies it down to something he can comprehend.
You really are thick witted, aren’t you? Those two choices are no more incongruous than Joe Biden. They were both accomplished in their other careers and made a respectable job of President and Governor.. Joe has never spent a moment without at least one foot in his mouth.
It’s all part of an elaborate deception plan. The Brits are really out to reclaim the lost colony.
Not so sure. Most Brits I have known consider July 4th as THEIR independence day.
She can’t be America’s first woman president. Kamal Harris is. Or soon will be.
If she’s a royal I’m a banana
Trashy. Is far more accurate
Has she seen Charlie Hebdo’s latest cover?
Apparently she is now a royal pain in the ass.
Never heard of that supposed actress before she got in the news by dating Harry. I suspect this is nothing but a publicity stunt. But if she does give it a go the democrat establishment types she comes up against will eat her lunch.
If the establishment types decide that she is the Democrats best chance to hold onto the presidency, her path will be cleaned and greased. How the heck do you think Joe Biden managed to become president? Between fixing the primaries, and working with the media to bury any stories that might be embarrassing, they did whatever they needed to do.
She has no pedigree. She will be chewed up and spit out just like
Bernie was TWICE!
What to do to stay relevant when when the phone stops ringing. Interesting observation that Joe Rogan made in a an interview, “They find a pattern, a way they have to talk and the things they have to talk about and they lock into those things with no deviation, they find whatever the line is that Hollywood wants, it’s always left, its always progressive, it’s always super-woke, and they f***ing ride that line like a railroad train, just ‘choo choo’, no deviation. It’s so obvious.”
Oh this just gets better and better! Two brothers, one on the throne of England, the other as the FMOTUS!
Yeah, dont vote for this idiot and her deluded inbred idiot of a husband. Please, what ever you do, dont do it.
“If she made it to the White House, Meghan would be first female US President ”
Apart from Kamala Harris. Come on, you don’t really think Dementia Joe is going to last 4 years, do you?
Joe will never last the 4 years. He did not get elected. He was placed there.
That little spat back in 1776 was about the Colonial forces trying to keep the British from leaving?
she wont be the first
kamel ah will be that by default
god help you shes already doing the os leaders chats
if sparkles ran Id hope for a killary rerun of an epic fail
as a female she makes my hackles rise
George Floyd wasn’t murdered.
Looks to me like ALL of you missed something: Markle is a Greenie, a greenbeaner, an ecohippie, and all those other things I’ve used to refer to that bunch of twits. I have no doubt that she’d have a serious plan in store to put the USofA on the same disastrous track that other countries (guess which ones) have followed in their fatal efforts to be “carbon-free”. She and Harry would/will be in complete comfort, up there above it all while the rest of the population is down here, trying to get out of the frozen mud.
Sad.
Now that there is down hilarious! But then again Slow Joe “won” the election didn’t he, right?
She isn’t going to run for POTUS. This story is just to keep her profile high in the news and keep the $$$ rolling in.
You might be right, Rusty. This might be the story the leftist lamebrain media has been looking for to take the heat off of Cuomo.
With extensive and inclusive voter fraud in place Sylvester the Cat could be elected president. They don’t need your vote, all they need is the appearance of your vote. And with that there is no representation only agendas.
What fun that would be. Trump versus the woke Gold Digger.
She has the gravitas, the erudition, the looks, the entitlement — she’s got it all, baby!!!! /s
And the 16 bathrooms…
Must be a reason for that. A lot to fit down the sewers.
I’m sure that those in control of the election process could sway the election enough for Micky Mouse to win, except—of course—they probably consider him a white supremacist symbol now.
If she became president, then we could all eat cake.
I like cake.
Yes, I knew us Brits would regain control of the U.S. one day. A princess in the white house. LOL
Prince Harry for Governor of California!
God for England (Beverley Hills?), Harry and St George!
It would be hard to do worse than the current Democrat.
From the article: “Before you dismiss this idea as too ridiculous to imagine, consider that a year ago many of us would have said the same thing about Joe Biden.”
And include Kamala Harris. Kamala has no qualifications to be president, yet there she is, first in line. So I suppose another person with no qualifications, like Meghan Markle, should not see no qualifications as an obstacle to running and possibly winning.
It could be Kanye and Meghan running together as president and vice president next time. Or the Rock! Or any number of other unqualified people who have voiced aspirations in the past.
Biden seems to have a penchant for choosing unqualified people. Maybe it’s just that the Democrats don’t have very many people who are qualified, so they have to make do with what they have. As long as they are the right color and ethnicity, that’s all that Biden really cares about. It’s all for the optics. Qualifications? What’s that? Who needs that?
Obama had more qualifications than Merkle does, but only barely.
Back to monarchy. Even Biden can’t get that establishment.
Good … bring on Candace Owens. Should be fun!
If she couldn’t stand the media spotlight as a princess, she will not be able to handle being a political candidate.
not Meagain again.
Didn’t she have to renounce US citizenship to become a British Duchess? Hell, Canada made Conrad Black give up his citizenship just to become a Baron…
Also, I think you’re being a bit unfair to both her and Harry. After what happened to his mother, it would be normal to be more than a little antsy about crossing the FAMILY.
I say give the kids and their young ones a break…
Um, who though the idea of Joe Biden running for president was too ridiculous to imagine? He’d already done it a couple of times before, so it was actually really easy to imagine. Him winning the nomination, on the other hand (let alone actually making it to the White House), yeah sure many considered that pretty ridiculous all things considered. But his running? nope, sorry but no one considered that “too ridiculous to imagine”
Who knows? She could follow the Louis-Napoleon Bonaparte route.
Three years as President, then run a plebiscite on a Monarchy…
The Empress Meghan the Magnificent sounds just fine.
But don’t upset the Prussians (sorry – Chinese).
Hmmm… Meghan wins election… Queen invokes (and/or invents) a succession law no one remembers and reminds everyone that a Queen outranks a Duchess.
Result? Elizabeth R, Queen of America and millions of Americans are suddenly legally bound to practice the longbow. 😀
Could be fun 😀
This is a Cunning Plan by the monarchy. Pretend a rift in the family, get Meghan into the presidency, and then reconcile H and M with the Queen and bring America back under the Crown.
You might still have to pay those back taxes since 1776, though.
And they should drop that “America’s first woman president” line.
There have been plenty of women presidents and prime ministers since Mrs Bandaranaike became PM of Sri Lanka in 1960. It’s old news. Turkey and Thailand, Britain and Bangladesh, Philippines and Pakistan, India and Indonesia, Iceland and Ireland, and many more have had women in charge of the government. The USA will probably join the list eventually*, but no one cares any more.
(*Probably in a couple of weeks, when Biden is officially declared gaga.)
I think you miss the point entirely. Turkey, Thailand, Britain, et al are NOT The United States of America. Who they’ve had in charge is irrelevant to the history of who has been in charge of the US of A. The first American X is still the first *American* X regardless of what happened in regards to X elsewhere in the world (replace X with whatever first is being discussed). Again, what happened elsewhere is *IRRELEVANT* when discussing the history of what Americans have done in regards to “first American to do X”, just as what happened in America would be *IRRELEVANT* when discussing the history of what Turkey has done or the history of what Thailand has done, or the history of what Britain has done, etc in regards to their “firsts to do X”.
Why they forced Joe on us? Still prefer Joe.
