Fergasun Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Don't ask those people why Trump didn't fix the system when he was President. You will get 90% of the GOP agenda with a selfish, criminal, narcisicist. Trump has done a helluva job marketing. And the media barely seems to challenge this. Boomers messed up the system and expect Trump to fix it? So dumb. Wonder about this guys relationship with his kids. There's nothing but Trump going massive in on the FUD and its inside this guys head. TRUMP WAS THE PRESIDENT OF THE DEEP STATE AND DIDN'T FIX SQUAT! Why are we having these articles even? This guy owns a house and is probably top 10 or 20%. He has a military retirement. How long do you need to cling to this right wing "deporting immigrants will fix the system" garbage? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fergasun Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 ... Alternate headline "propaganda works". Newsflash.... if you truly want a moderate form of government, a Democratic President and GOP Congress is your best bet. Furthermore, a GOP Congress is nearly a guarantee with the Senate. For some reason the Trump candidates never win their Senate races. This viewpoint on Trump was totally fair to write in 2016. But in 2024? Trump is the political poison. I don't even have any illusions he'll do the smart thing and triangulate to the center. We haven't even started with all the 14th Amendment Section 3 cases his cabinet and appointees will face. But, guess what dunderheads. If you think people are going to lay down for J6 insurrectionists returning to power, you all have another thing coming. It's going to be a very real Constitutional crises and it's going to embroil the first 2 years, long enough to stymie his agenda. Going with Trump is going to be a huge mistake. Right now, seems like he still has polling -- not sure if things are skewed or young voters truly have a Biden issue (over Gaza?). Which also seems insane to me. I guess division sells.

Fergasun Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 ... one more thought The moment Trump is re-elected we will face at a minimum two (2) Constitutional crises. (1) Foreign emoluments case can be re-opened (Supreme Court mooted it) (2) Jack Smith will file motions to prevent the criminal cases from being closed (because we have never elected a President indicted for Federal crimes). (3) SCOTUS could end up punting his eligibility case to post-election as well. I need to stop reading about politics. GOP effed the country over by not impeaching him over J6 during that trial with their bogus "maybe you can't impeach a former President." They all knew that they could bar him from running again. They were just too chickenheaded to do it. I will pray we don't have further global crises' under Trump as well. . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

88Comrade2000 Posted January 23 Author Share Posted January 23 (edited) I think a second Trump will be short. He’ll either die early in his term or get eliminated. Edited January 23 by 88Comrade2000 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First, a tip of the hat for using my late mother's favorite 'cuss' word - dunderhead. Second, I have seen some articles talking about existing members of Congress who should be worried if the SCOTUS rules with states on the 14th Amendment Section 3 decision. Jordan, et al. will be facing expulsion when the dust settles. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

China Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Was Ron Desantis Running on ChatGPT This Whole Time? Florida Governor Ron Desantis, who often sounds like an AI chatbot, dropped out of the 2024 Presidential Election on Sunday, just a week after OpenAI banned ChatGPT for political campaigns. It begs the question, was Ron Desantis running on ChatGPT this whole time? Click on the link for the rest 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weak Democrats here in TX-31. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well this one poll out of mid eastern central Iowa of people with landlines that are home between 9 and 11am on a Wednesday shows that Haley wins over Biden.

Don't give them too much time to replace him. Who's "we"? Ain't nobody here on the Tailgate "burning Trump down." Strategically, there's no bad time for a person like Trump to get sent off to jail or get bounced from an election. You mean to tell me if it somehow happened next week, you'd be annoyed by it because they have more time to replace him? Trump somehow losing the nomination or somehow getting thrown in jail is a net win for everyone. I don't care if that frees up Nimrata to be able to come in and have 10~ months to replace him and get her feet wet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calm the **** down @88Comrade2000 Wild thing is, guys like Bang and Jumbo often type out the ways they would like to see certain politicians meet their demise (it's never pretty lol)...but someone saying a politician might be (the "a" word)--not that they want it to happen, just that it might--and we start freaking out. I guess it's because describing the act comes with an understanding of it not being literal. Although I kinda think both Bang and Jumbo are being more literal than we think 😂 (or maybe I'm just hoping they were). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
