Bingo.

I remember watching an interview with Bob Dole before the 2020 election and he was a Trumper.  He died in December 2021 and to my knowledge never spoke out about what happened on January 6th.   That the rank and file GOP leadership has pretty much stood on the sideline and let Trump continue to dismantle the party and our political process is so depressing.

Dole was an early representative of Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska who was later deeply intertwined with Paul Manafort and the Trump campaign.

I'm pretty sure people like him, who have become vocal never trumpers, most of them are mostly just pissed that their power within the Repulican party has been wildly diminished. Not that they actually give a fuck.

How do you think this gets captured in their internal polling?

what that tells me is people are aware of their local situation but know fuck all about other states or the country as a whole

My state's economy is great.  It's the $20 minimum wage in California ruining the country!!!

Rand Paul must be investing heavily in cat food.

Well, he's already cornered the market in having a punchable face and being the recipient of the most justified ass-kicking ever, so he's a fucking investment genius if you ask me.

I really don’t care why anyone thinks Biden voters will vote en masse for RFK. As soon as he opens his mouth, it’s obvious he’s not a Dem. The “Kennedy mystique” isn’t a thing anymore. When Joe Kennedy couldn’t win a primary in Massachusetts with that name

Also, I never subscribed in the first place and sure as shit didn’t consent to receiving texts. So where could they have gotten my number, and could they have legally texted me?

If that's a real screen grab above, then it seems like you have experience in freely posting your number onto the WWW.

Trump has seen nearly 2 billion dollars in losses since his Trump Media merger. Shares went as high as 79.38 on March 26 and now closed at 40.49 today

That's still about 40 dollars more than it is worth

I paid almost $10 for a Carl’s Jr. Superstar (double cheeseburger) last week. $20/hour is no joke.

For comparison, in 1980 a Big Mac cost $1.60 which is $6.03 in 2024 money.   Prices for burgers are essentially unchanged from 40yrs ago.

$6 burger doesn't exist anymore. Even their most basic burger is $6.99.
