The 45th POTUS - Donald J. Trump

[Strat]

I think some of them see a real opportunity to cast real doubt on this with the backing of almost 70 million people which would give them continued power and control.

How is that ice dispenser strat ?

It's a wine night. But are you telling me you aren't concerned? What has led you to believe that republicans are ready to give up on trump yet?

When Republicans are not in mob form they are approachable and will readily admit that Trump is an idiot.

And that has made all the difference

And besides, what are they going to do?

They have every right to jump ship right now yet they aren't. They keep the senate, they gained in the house, trump was voted out.

I dont know what they are going to do but im concerned. Why are they still trying to placate him?

Oh I totally agree with this. But I think that as the process unfolds, all it will take for those elected officials who are smarter than Matt Gaetz and Rudy Giuliani will be one sobering conversation with a career intelligence leader about why this path could lead to the destruction of America.

I generally think these people are stupid, but not evil. There are exceptions. But the benefit to being stupid-not-evil is that you can see the light, if the right person shows it to you.

Hes not the antichrist because I already looked it up, so I'm not sure why

As of now Graham and McConnell are fully on board with Trumps bullshit right now.

I dont know. This conversation feels a lot like the conversation of "Oh maybe now Trump will become presidential" that never fucking happened.

They have backed him every step of the way. It wont change now. Why would it? Their jobs aren't at stake. They were all just voted in again.

Generally i dont like any ice but i understand ice belongs in certain cocktails.

Rose with ice? Fuck that.

Rose in spain on a hot summer day while eating ceviche? Hell yea.

The Koch brothers, and the larger market, hate Trump, because he's incredibly unstable, and markets hate instability. McConnell and Graham are going along for the ride to a point, because they can't risk alienating a huge voting swath before the GA runoffs in January. I'm sure they don't even know when exactly they plan to bail, but I think their general approach is "Support Trump's BS right up to the last possible second, maybe get some legal wins to make it a foregone conclusion we win GA, then let's dump his body in a ditch and move on."

This.

The “Mitch and team are just playing along with cries of a stolen election because they know it will keep the base frothing in a manner that is useful for winning in Georgia” is really, really not a great case for “it’s fine.”

It is dangerous, even beyond the fact that it is intentionally heating up already-simmering tensions about the state of our democracy for cynical reasons. It’s dangerous on just a basic, “human beings can get hurt” level.

Just in the last 40 days, we’ve seen kidnapping plots against a sitting governor, armed men stopped in transit to polling locations targeted by right wing media, campaign busses harassed by coordinated effort on the interstate, a poll worker forced to go into hiding after conspiracy-minded Republicans shared his personal information online, and death threats against election officials.

This shit is metastasizing into a real ugly mess on social media...





...and on a long enough timeline it does end up getting people hurt.

[blueviper]

It's funny (well, not ha ha funny) to see these nutjobs posting they'll need to use arms to save freedom and democracy.




From the democratic election process.

[macphisto]

Contrary to everything we've seen over the last six months, the Left doesn't have a monopoly on violence. FAAFO that the Right is really fucking good at it.
