fucking lulz "Trump to deliver remarks on the economy." I'm sure economists from all over the globe will be glued to to the proceedings. Trump handing out macroeconomic gems like Steph Curry shooting threes.

I was a MAGA activist and pundit, and left MAGA, in 2022, after 7 years in it. If The Atlantic might consider a personal piece from me, Peter, let me know, please. What MAGA Americans need to see is others like them—who support(ed) Trump and MAGA for what they thought were the right reasons—who made the decision to leave MAGA; and, the reasons why they left. MAGA Americans remain in MAGA because it is a community. For those with friends and family in MAGA, you’ve probably made appeals based on facts, citing reputable sources, etc., and you’ve found they have not had any success. MAGA Americans will not leave unless they have a new community to go to; our Leaving MAGA org./team is actively building such a community. Soon, we will publish testimonials of some who, like me, were MAGA true believers, and left. For those in the thrall of MAGA, facts, policies, etc., will, almost never, have any successful effect. If you want to re-engage your friends and family who are in MAGA, make a sincere effort to try and understand their perspectives, which are likely shaped by many of the everyday concerns and worries most Americans share. If you’ve already done this, do it again—this time, however, ask if they’d be willing to hear my story, and introduce them to our Leaving MAGA org. You will be pleasantly surprised by how many are willing to take a look at my own journey in, and out of, MAGA, as well as our org. At the upcoming Democratic convention, a brief video of my story will air. I am also co-chairing the Republicans for Harris FL team, because I need to make amends for my past decisions and rhetoric—all of which I take complete responsibility for. Yes, MAGA will remain, but we must mercy-kill the GOP, electorally, and begin to move on from Trump—someone I helped get elected. A national reconciliation is possible. Thank you.

Nah, fuck all that. Been passing out olive branches for close to a decade. I'm done. Burn with the movement.

Yep. Fuck that. The only thing we should give them is all the hemlock they can drink. I’m fucking done with those treasonous pieces of shit. They can do the world a favor and drink hemlock. That’s what they can do to help. I don’t believe a single one who says they’re “converting.” Bullshit.

Being under 50 doesn’t mean Harris leading. Could be RFK taking votes and he’s only winning a plurality or maybe too many undecided voters. She needs to maintain focus - MI, PA, WI, NV, AZ, GA, NC

But it is a flashing bright red light that you will get routed in WI/MI/PA

The question is can the currently constructed modern Republican Party hold itself together if it loses 2 elections in a row after a miracle win 8 years ago and 4 potential losses in the last 16 years to the first black president, grandpa Biden and the first female president who is also black 

If the GOP apparatus decides to dump Trumpism, Trump will walk away and take his MAGA followers with him. What does the 2025 Republican Party look like? Just more Trumpism or do what’s left of the sane ones grab control?

Trump has family members and sycophants running the RNC.  It is going to be ugly as hell after this election, because me thinks the funds will dry up from the major donors.

Because there's a difference between voting for or against an actual law that promotes or restricts freedom versus a person/party that tries to tell you what freedumb is and how they'll get you more of it (they won't).

Is it hot in Texas on August 31?

[Pancho 46049]

From a Harris-Walz campaign official: There are over 12,000 people in the Las Vegas arena. In the last hour, local law enforcement made the decision to close the doors to the event due to people becoming ill while waiting outside to go through security in the 109-degree heat. Approximately 4,000 people were in line and in cars when the entrances were shut down

Fat donnie's twitter date with elmo on monday night is gonna be something else. I wont watch that one, because fuck legitimizing that cesspool, but I'm assuming Trump will boldly go where none of his advisors think possible. The other funny thing about that couple is both men will enter that room with 100% certainty that they will be the one receiving oral. 

Both think they are the smartest guy in any room, and Elmo won't be too happy that Trump was trashing EVs and bitching about reinforcing bridges, etc.

Hungry Ojos said:

I think we need to accept the fact that Trump is not going to win. Harris is up in all of the polls, she's starting to gather huge crowds, and the MSM is doing everything in its power to push her across. Trump simply cannot win another general election. He is entirely too hated. Plus, he just refuses to change. He won't listen to advisors, won't prepare for debates, won't shut the **** up about stuff that doesn't matter, and continues to step on his own dick. Harris has to be the weakest presidential candidate of all time, and has a record of absolute patheticness…and is still going to win.

But instead of accepting that, we are putting our fingers in our ears and saying "nuh-uh", "polls are rigged and fake" or "lol, just wait till Harris implodes at the debates!" None of that is going to happen. It's entirely wishful thinking. The one thing the right is not doing however, is forcing Trump to change by NOT showing up at his stupid rallies or ending campaign contributions until he changes. 

I honestly cannot fathom how he ****ed this up. He survived an assassination attempt and ended Biden's political career…only to lose to the most unqualified, idiotic, vapid excuse for a candidate imaginable.

Republicans are completely outmatched and will continue to lose in perpetuity. The left is sooooooooooo much better at politics than we are, and when you add in the MSM, Hollywood, illegals, the courts, etc., it ends up being too much.

If America survives this next four years, Republicans are going to have to do something dramatic to stay relevant. Populism didn't work, true conservatism (DeSantis) was rejected for more carnival barking, and it's only getting more bleak. 

I don't know what the answer is, but this ain't it. There is zero excuse for losing this election. Yet here we are.

End universal suffrage or the masses will vote us into socialism and then communism. Letting every idiot vote was the real issue. They outnumber us. It is just math at this point.
