  1. Thankful to live in a country where ideas like “is the president allowed to do crimes with impunity in perpetuity?” are legitimately considered by our high courts for weeks as the world burns.
  2. The livestock trough seems oddly appropriate.
  3. Biden’s favorability numbers are somehow worse than or equal to Trump’s at the moment. Why that is is beyond me but the data tells me many voters will be coming out to vote against Biden and not so much for a Republican. Trump might be one of the few nominees Biden can beat. I also believe the Democratic Party leadership understands this and they haven’t been as zealous as you’d expect to keep Trump from winning the GOP nomination.
  4. All I’m saying is Nikki Haley is objectively a massively more competitive and viable candidate than Trump, under normal circumstances. It is also very possible Trump and his base would intentionally sabotage Nikki’s general election candidacy The Trump cult is poison to the GOP and the conservative movement
  5. When Trump got elected, I low balled the institutional recovery at 20 years. Now, I don’t think the government will fully recover in my lifetime because too many bad actors in media and both parties have normalized and enabled Trumpism over the last seven years.
  6. Nikki Haley would likely beat Joe Biden in a head to head run but it doesn’t matter because the cult will not be denied their Orange God….the guy that has already proven himself unelectable and has yet to win the popular vote in a general election. It’s funny/sad because the media only talks about “electability” when it’s a woman. Like, electability should objectively be the biggest red flag when it comes to nominating Trump but everyone in media has kind of accepted that narrative will not work because the Republicans party base is beyond rational thought or strategic thinking.
  7. Jon Voigt is the poster child for boomer brainworms.
  8. I read Ulysses S. Grants memoirs last year and one thing that struck me was how he described the Southern politicians behavior prior to the Civil War. Grant argues the federal government was very much sabotaged from the inside by demagoguing old men well beyond their military service years. He also claims the Civil War was about slavery and it was one of the worst causes ever fought for.
  9. Went snowmobiling in Yellowstone West yesterday and the little old lady at the gift shop bragged on the $3 coasters I purchased while causally dropping how awesome it will be when we get rid of that Joe Biden. She said she was optimistic about 2024 and I said, “That makes one of us.” Walked out the store thinking we are so fucked. -CSB
