I'm not saying he shouldn't face consequences. I'm saying stupid behavior in your 20s isn't indicative of your intelligence.Peeps wrote:B wrote:He seems 25. There's a reason we've never had a 25yr old in Congress before.E.H. Ruddock wrote:Yeah he seems really smart

Being 25 also doesn't excuse his being a sexual predator.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Re: The Future of the GOP
Man, you guys were a lot more responsible than I was at 25. Stupid choices like driving on a suspended license and trying to carry a gun through security were right in line with the kind of choices I sometimes made.

I feel like there’s a little bit of a (moral) grace period from 18-25, but once you’re 25 that’s it man. No excuses.B wrote:Man, you guys were a lot more responsible than I was at 25.

Re: The Future of the GOP
by the way the answer to OP is guys like joe kent and blake masters
more generally, it's guys who won't shrink from using state power to advance their agenda and punish political enemies

Entirely re-inventing himself worked for the primary at least. We'll have to hear more about his positions on exotic animal ownership to know who is the favorite in the general.BurtReynolds wrote:Sounds like JD Vance might have pulled an upset.

Re: The Future of the GOP
Just listened to an interview with Vance. He sounds like a reasonable direction for the GOP. Thought leader and anti-woke. Appeals to a lot of the working class sect of Trumpism.
Sounds like I'm trolling but I'm not.
