  1. Yeah, I heard the one of him attacking Cruz or calling him Cancun Cruz or whatever, and I don't think the party was mentioned. Maybe he knows what the hell he's doing.
  2. This woman did a pretty good breakdown of things, including the Neo-Nazi stuff that dates back to late August, when a Neo-Nazi was addrsssing the Springfield city council about running the Haitians out.
  3. If I had heard the bit about him hating Taylor Swift, and then a few hours later that somebody was arrested at his golf course with a rifle, I wouldn't have ruled out a Swiftie at that moment in time.
  4. I did miss Trump hating on Taylor Swift this morning..that seems to be the big news on the socials.
  5. Better to copy and paste The development in the Glushkovo area, Kursk region, in Russia are very intriguing. Both on an operational but also on a strategic level. Russian channels report that the village Veseloe has been taken by Ukrainian forces, which based on the videos we have seen are very likely. It brings Ukrainian forces in close range with Glushkovo and threatens to split this pocket south of the Seym river to be split in two. Furthermore and even worse for Russians, it is an assault into Russia's rear of their ongoing counteroffensive, whose results are murky at best. Aside from 3 villages and some failed assaults further east, we have seen nothing what backs up Russian gains in Kursk. It wouldn't matter much either when reflecting the following point. Having Russians commit resources in Kursk has been most certainly the very idea by the Ukrainian high command. There is is also something more going on. It is possible that Ukrainians were only waiting for this Russian counter offensive operation. It not only forces Russians to finally commit their troops, including their reserves, in that sector, but also on top expose their artillery positions. Ukrainians now know what the Russian tactical intents are. They in return can now effectively counter them. It is an highly mobile war, far from the trench wars in the Donbas. It forces Russians to fight a war in which they utterly fail. On an operational level, this is how I would proceed against the Russian army. The Ukrainian operations south of Glushkovo are only backing up this assumption. The Ukrainian army obviously prepared for that gambit and are now pushing into another soft spot of the Russian defense, while Russians mindlessly run against Ukrainian fortifications. To say that Russians have "no good plans" is an understatement, both in Kursk, but also in the Donbas region. As always, Russians are just wildly slashing and hammering like mindless slaves into their enemy, hoping to overwhelm them only by numbers, and in the process consume insanely high resources with substantial amounts of them being destroyed. It only reaffirms that Ukraine, strategically, is still in the defense mode, but never fails to exploit a situation where it can inflict painful damage upon Russians, where they didn't prepare an Ukrainian operation.
  6. Especially if you toss in his comments this morning about HATING TAYLOR SWIFT.
  7. Russians are tolerating a lot. Putin sold them on a massive invasion as a means to protect them, while at the same time telling them that Ukrainians are just brothers from another mother even as they killed, and continue to kill, a lot of civilians. Nuking them, especially given that the fallout could drift into Russia, and especially since so many Russians have family in Ukraine, might be a step too far for a lot of Russians, especially if they are worried about the West retaliating. Putin’s got that old-time KGB paranoia as well, and he probably thinks about what would open the door for the lower ranks to take their shot at him.
  8. Hey guys, I was with my son on a Boy Scout project this afternoon that ran late, did I miss anything?
  9. And we’ve only seen the opening battle of the 2024 Republican Purity War. The opening salvo is the woman closest to Trump trying to publicly out Lindsey Graham and locking horns with MTG. If she is still with Trump a week from now…hold on to your butts. Unlike Vance, Trump can ditch her though, and if he spends more and more time defending her, he might. But then she has receipts.
  10. I think it’ll be the same as 2020 or even more of a defeat of Trump than 2020, because there are not a shitload of people who voted against Trump or for Biden in 2020 seeing Trump over the past few weeks suddenly saying “oh, why’d I vote for Biden in 2020 when I can have this instead?” Trump hit his ceiling in 2020. The past few weeks have been bad for him.
  11. I said this in the Loomer thread, but Trump should be campaigning hard in the battleground states, and trying to help down-ballot races, but instead he's hitched his wagon to a town of 58,000 people and is pushing some racist shit that was made up about said town, and it's drawing the racists out of the woodwork. And because he's Trump and is never wrong, and won't let it go, he's going to keep on fucking that chicken, at least for the next few weeks. And we are already seeing Republicans on national TV trying ever so hard to dodge or ignore reporters' questions about Trump's comments. If Soros spent money to get Loomer close to Trump, it was money well spent.
  12. Remember that time in 1991 on the beach in the Hamptons where you could have been a nice and friendly 9 year old but instead you were more concerned with how tall and blonde you were and how petite and brunette I was…well my 9 year old self is showing up 33 years later to tell you to shut up already. No one wants to hear your petty bullshit. This is not your Era.
  13. TLDR: Trump should be out there campaigning across actual battleground states with general feel-good messages, but Loomer has helped tied him down to fucking Springfield, Ohio, a town of 58,000 people, and the KKK/neo-Nazis are marching on the town, and Trump keeps trashing the shit out of the town and claiming it's overrun when anybody with a camera can see otherwise, and he can't let it go. So thank you Laura.
  14. Because there is no bottom (right @Brisketexan) Trump is starting to piss off Republican legislators who are watching him bring the RNC/GOP down. Lindsey Graham and a few others maybe taking pot shots at Laura Loomer now, but if Loomer keeps working her blowjob voodoo over Trump and having him say worse and worse stuff (Trump blowing off the bomb threats and claiming that Springfield is hell on earth and overrun with illegals is another example), and if Loomer keeps up her twitter war against MTG and Graham, the list of Republican politicians openly bitching about Loomer/Trump will grow quickly. Loomer could help Trump make a lot of Republicans stay home or leave the space blank, and if he gets demolished and takes down quite a few down-ballot seats in the process, all the while Lara Trump is controlling the RNC purse strings and saving all the money for Donnie, I honestly don't see how a lot of Republicans in Congress don't end up in a Republican civil war over this shit. Loomer is not the hero we deserve, but maybe the one we need. Those of us who wanted the Republican Party completely wrecked and rebuilt may get our wish. Unfortunately it'll be people like Peter Thiel who are probably in the driver's seat when that happens.
  15. He's headed down a really racist road with some of this comments over the last 48 hours, a lot more racist than his bullshit in the past. I would say she's influenced him quite a bit, starting with the eating the pets nonsense.
  16. Most Republicans will still pull the (R) lever, but plenty were pretty pissed at Cruz over the freez/Cancun bullshit, and they are getting tired of a lot of the other stuff (not just the pandering to Trump).
  17. Most of us have heard the joke about why here's a reason why they aren't called Jane's Sobriety. And was that truly just alcohol? (had to post this gif I've seen before, and glad somebody posted it on reddit).
  18. I could see some general selling off a bunch of rocket parts and fuel, knowing that the average Russian bureaucrat doing an audit won’t know what’s he’s looking at and/or is taking a bribe to check off a bunch of boxes on a spreadsheet. We saw it with their tanks, with hoses, batteries, wiring, etc. being sold off ont eh black market. too valuable.
  19. I don’t recall him being this hands on with anybody else though. Well, maybe Roger Stone when the cameras were off.
