The fuck it is. Dem policies are wildly popular and Republicans and their policies are horrible. All Dems need to do is keep pointing out what deranged freaks Republicans are and they'll get all the voters who don't love the deranged shit.

Nobody is saying roll back the popular policies. Just don’t go further left and reel in some of the far far left shit. There is a huge block waiting for the taking giving you all 3 branches consistently.

I think he runs in 2028 if alive and not in prison. And maybe from prison. The road goes on forever and the grift never ends!

Dammit. Might have to get some YouTube Joe Ely going.  And before anyone bitches that is Keen song I know. Just like Joe’s version better.

100%. Nobody who's ever seen/heard Tony Hinchcliffe would ever put him out there as the lead speaker if that's not the tone you were trying to set in the first place. That was no accident. It was exactly what they wanted.

Not to mentioned they vetted his whole monologue.

These people have sided with a wannabe dictator. If Kamala wins, they can move to the fucking left or stay with whatever monstrosity follows Trump. 

spoiler alert - it's trump, but older.

i for one think he looks fantastic. he's totally making sense and has perfected the weave, which shows super genius, he's moving around well, not dragging his leg, either of them, he's fine walking up or down slight incline ramps, especially down, and he drinks water like a 75 year old.

i look forward to him campaigning hard to take back the house in 2026.

she big mad. 

Damn. Did she get in that ozempic or has her hate slowly eaten away and her youthful subcutaneous fat reserves? She wasn’t big to begin with.

I bet her outer labia is all stretched and hangy now like an old dudes Scrote due to aging and her obvious use of GL-1 inhibitors.

You’re correct. Michigan and AZ GOP parties are bankrupt and broken. That’s what happens when you let people like Kristina Karamo and Kellie Ward take over

Let them bleed ALL the state parties dry.

If turnip loses (when?) next week, will the R party split into two going forward? the maga wing and the “we are normal republicans” wing?

If Trump loses, this could be one of those generational swings in american politics. I could see the MAGA republicans breaking off into their own Newsmax world.

How many times do we have to go over this?  A split GQP cannot win elections.  It is a marriage made in hell.  The "country club" Republicans CANNOT get enough votes to win shit without the rabid MAGAs.  And the rabid MAGAs can't get enough votes to win shit without the country club Republicans.  They HAVE to stay together.  And the way that works in their dynamic is that one side will have to completely compromise all of its values and sell out for the sake of power...which the country club Republicans have already done.

They are married.  Forever and ever.

We know another couple who are getting divorced over this. 

Anyone who thinks this isn't a thing is in denial and needs an education.

I wonder how much this is happening. 

If you're a decent person and love your country, but your spouse is a hard core insurrectionist and hate monger, I mean, how do you maintain respect for them?

I wouldn’t be able to. My husband and I talked about this, we don’t think the marriage would survive if one of us was a hard core MAGAt

anyone know why the economy needs to be torn down ?

It doesn't align with the principles of anarcho-capitalism. 

Sure a lot of us might have our lives ruined but that is a price he is willing to pay.

It started before 2016. The original MAGA, the tea party started it. MAGA just kicked it in warp speed. 
 

best thing for democrats to do is continue to go more moderate and pull in the ostracized traditional/fundamental republicans to their side. It would allow the most party growth and ability to take house/senate. 

This party is already big tent enough, its teetering on the edge of splintering, MAGA created this monstrosity by shifting the overton window, aka you move to the right and MAGA moves even more nazi.

On my flight this morning, was talking with the dude in my row (we were basically same age).  Topic was business, the economy, which turned to politics.

He said to me he couldn’t get behind Harris because she wants to tax unrealized gains in 401Ks.

Me: ??????

“Its true, look it up.”

I break out my IPad and take advantage of the 1 out of 3 SWA flights WiFi is working on.

”You mean the proposal aimed at individuals with over $200MM in assets?  (Shows him table).  “If you have that kind of money, why you flying SWA?”

Silence.  ”Think the Yankees gonna get swept?”

These people are such fucking cowards. They want the racism, but are afraid of being judged so they have to pretend to care about their own pocketbooks

Yeah there was this whole thing with the Cheneys a couple of weeks back that we don't need to revisit.

One of my friends brought this up and I said the same thing about the 200 million and his response was it will suck when the farmer dies and his family gets hit with that tax bill. I laughed and said you obviously haven’t been a farmer if you think they are sitting on that unrealized gain.

If you end up in a discussion with someone about whether or not Trump is a fascist, here's a great read from a historian I like: https://acoup.blog/2024/10/25/new-acquisitions-1933-and-the-definition-of-fascism/ 

It goes through some of the history of Germany and Italy, and is exclusively grounded in what Trump himself says, not what other people say about him. 

A couple of years ago I read Mademoiselle by Rhonda Garelick (Chanel biography) which really talked about the rise of facism in Europe in the 20s and 30s (and how it reared its head in the US as well), and it was fascinating. A lot of rich, powerful people bought all in then, and they are buying in now.

L-O-Fucking-L. Fuck the Yankees, but New York is very, very far from a swing state. That is wishful thinking.

There was a murder suicide in Omaha yesterday where the shooter had a hard MAGA/Antivaxx break and choose killing his beloved special ed teacher wife in front of their teenage daughters instead of divorce

Friend of mine from high school is a Mormon and he added me to a message group of mostly LDS people focused on canvassing and voting for Trump.  Good group of people. Here's what one of them just posted today...

 

"LDS for Harris crew said that in 2016 Utah county (where BYU is) was 80/20 Rep. In 2020 it was closer to 70/30, in 2024 it is closer to 50/50. Utah still won't go blue - but praying that the mormons turn up HUGELY to vote Harris in Arizona/Nevada - at least 1 of those needs to go blue...preferrably both."
