  1. This is decidedly NOT the good vibes thread.
  2. Don't worry, you can strive to be both.
  3. I'm thinking that, after a massive Kamala victory, they can convince themselves that all it will take is a significant economic turndown between now and 2026 to dominate the midterms, tying the administration in a policy stalemate, and putting 2028 in play, because they won't have to worry about the anti-Trump vote. So better to pivot from MAGA now. None of that is going to happen, of course.
  4. I agree IF it's a close election. But if Trump keeps Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Georgia, and at least one of Arizona/Nevada blue AND helps turn North Carolina blue and gives Dems an unexpected Senate seat somewhere, there's going to be a reckoning between GOP leadership and the Republican power brokers. The GOP was able to jump right back on the Trump train in 2022--after if became abundantly clear that no one gave a fuck about Ron DeSantis--because, if you squint, the 2020 election was pretty close, and Biden was wildly unpopular at the time. There's a reason why they made Trump wait until after the midterms to announce though. They realize that Trump is poison to their election chances, so if this election proves once and for that he--and his approved cronies--absolutely cannot win in purple states, then something will have to change. But I think it will be close on Tuesday and they'll take the Senate, so, yeah, we're stuck with Trump as the party until he dies.
  5. Who didn't have their parents' worldview as a teenager? I almost feel bad for them. Hopefully, they'll go to college and figure out that girls don't want to talk about crypto and the traditional family.
  6. I understand. I'm staying drunk for a week. We all have our methods.
  7. Of all the things that didn't happen, this didn't happen the most.
  8. Yes, but one truth has clearly remained the same: we are fucking obsessed with celebrity.
  9. Someone like Haley--who has supported Trump in the past--but ultimately drifted away from him (for completely self-serving reasons, but still) at least have a small chance to redirect the GOP while not losing every MAGA supporter (just most). Arnold has been against Trump since Day 1 and hasn't wavered. Even "reasonable" Rs view him as a turncoat.
  10. The "I'm scared shitless of my wife because she runs such a tight household, but women lack the temperament to lead" voter is quite the niche.
  11. We're probably taking about 10,000 Trump voters over 50 states who voted for Trump twice but just aren't enthused to get off their couch next week who are going to say, "Hey, I didn't really want to vote for him this time, but supporting him in the past doesn't make my friends and I garbage! I guess I'll vote now. Good job, Brandon!" We'll survive.
  12. I can't believe that C-word ad is a real, endorsed campaign commercial. Hurr durr, it's funny because it made you think of cunt, but we didn't actually say cunt. That's where we are with the modern GOP. Why stop there, you pussies? "Kamala is an N-word. That's right, she's a neo-Marxist." Hilarious stuff.
  13. I don't think it's a big deal. But Hilary also issued a clarification about "deplorables." Democrats can't unsay things like Republicans can.
  14. Wait, was this supposedly barely in control of his facilities Joe Biden or body double Joe Biden? I'll calibrate my outrage accordingly.
  15. I have more then one wealthy friend--who the "system" has assisted to get them to their current success at near every turn--who are voting for Trump as the "disruptor" candidate who they want to tear it all down.
  16. Sometimes 3 soldiers have to needlessly die so the CIA can have a 5 minute conversation and check for hidden tattoos. War is hell. After doing very well at creating strong, complex, believable women in Season 1, Sheridan seems to be leaning into his Yellowstone tendencies where important, powerful women yell and cuss out every man they see to let us know how important and powerful they are.
  17. Yep. Unless she's also winning Arizona, Nevada's electoral college points don't really count towards anything other than margin of victory. And it's impossible for me to envision a scenario where Kamala wins Arizona and Nevada, but loses Wisconsin, Georgia, and North Carolina. Any one of which would get her to 270 if PA goes her way.
  18. All things considering, pretty ballsy of him. Telling shitty jokes that, if Trump loses, make him an enemy of some of the dumbest, angriest people on the planet. Or, he's also an idiot with zero foresight.
  19. The invasion of dozens of posters who all of the sudden want to post in the cloak room again is going to be really, really depressing.
  20. Such is the curse of not being stupid: you don't get to have their irrational, unwavering overconfidence about damn near everything.
  21. When do the "will he request a trade?" talking head discussion begin in earnest?
  22. You just don't understand smart humor.
