I hope someday we find out exactly what Trump had on Graham.  He's pushing 70 and his next election is in 2026.  Trump has to have something spectacular to make him this miserable without flipping on Trump.

I don't think that one is that tough to figure out.

Yes, they absolutely do.  Many of these people get all their information from right wing radio and Fox News exclusively and their social groups are made up of people that do the exact same, and these are the “normal” boomer aunt type republicans. 

Then you have the red pilled terminally only douchebags like Elon… followed by incels, Qanon freaks, and 4chan neonazis.  

Reality waved bye-bye to these folks long ago. 

This is what is so crazy to me. These two groups have almost zero overlap and yet comprise the main two groups that make up the R base. The Fox News boomers have no clue about the deeper insidious shit like Project 2025 because Fox doesn’t tell them about it, but the terminally online sector is WELL aware of it and most of them champion it.

8 days ago, all anybody could talk about was Trump being shot and how this was going to win him the election.

Since that time, we've had the Harris news and a never-trumpet VP candidate that fucks couches and reads or writes dolphin porn or some shit, and people have moved on from the shooting.

If things are moving that fast, we are liable to end this week with Dwayne Johnson being the potential VP for Harris, and Trump having ditched Vance and bringing in Silk from Diamond & Silk as his VP pick.  or Tucker.

 

Curious to know if you looked up which one died, you just happened to remember, or if you took a guess.

Yeah, Trump doesn’t stoop to juvenile taunts.  Lyin Ted. Little Marco.  Pocahontas.  Ron DeSanctimonious. 

GQP doesn’t like when Dems decide to play by the GQP’s rules. Oh, and

These are the same people who believed Taylor Swift was a CIA plant and that wasn't an insignificant amount of people.

These people also freak out slightly when they bring up Kamala Harris taking over for Biden to you in recent days, and you casually mention that you knew for years that she was on the ticket precisely because the Democrats planned for a woman to take the top spot if Roe v Wade was overturned.  They freak a little more when you mention that Biden faked everything that led to his stepping back and letting her take over the top spot.  And then you mention that when Trump was injured in the shooting, you knew that she would be announced within a week or two to take the spotlight away from Trump.  

And then you tell this person that "isn't that exactly what George Soros would do? Have somebody ready to take up the baby-killing abortion mantle? Have somebody read to take the spotlight away from Trump if something happened and he started gaining interest from moderates/independents?"

Trump will be calling this guy “weak Vivek” or “little Vivek” before September. I've never been more certain of anything in my life. 

you talking about this guy?

Trump will watch the coverage and every few minutes will mutter something under his breath about "that fucking hillbilly couch fucker".

That author made a shitload of money, even though for a simple 3-act 150-page novel, it sucked ass - they go through the trouble of introducing this elaborate Chekhov's Gun in the first act, remind you of it in the second act, and then gloss right over for the third act.

Then again, maybe they know their audience can't finish past about page 30 and has no interest in the rest of the novel.

You’ve read that book? This is the first I’ve heard of it. I’m curious who the model on the cover is. Can’t tell if the face and the torso are from the same person.

Sounds reminiscent of the Russian mobster in the woods on The Sopranos. Chase introduced lots of storylines on that show that were never resolved and no one held him accountable. I’m not sure why we should have higher standards for dinosaur erotica. (Still not sure why dinosaur erotica is even a thing. That’s something I think I could’ve gotten along just fine without knowing was a thing. But here we are.)

The right really doesn't enjoy when the tables are turned. Kamala and everyone around her needs to start gaslighting the media on things she's previously said. Well, you can't take her literally....

Great move by Biden to go for constitutional amendments for removing presidential immunity and term limits for the Supreme Court. Look forward to the gop stance how both are bad.

there are some good aspects to having an old, lame duck president. They can go after legacy items and not worried about future elections or lining their own pocket.

I genuinely don't think an amendment is going to be fruitful, it's too easy to block and all the (R) states will simply out of spite

I think "weird" is more accessible to people who don't, or don't want to, pay attention to policy discussions or culture wars.  It's easier to understand that they just want someone in charge that is normal that they don't have to really think about and will mostly leave them alone.
