ManBoyChef posted:Anyone else have chuds in their lives that make having their wrong information pointed out to them a personal attack on them? This has been true since at least W Bush's terms in office. "With us or against us" tribalism is why. They don't care about facts and will absolutely reject them and you for bringing them up. I think someone phrased it in another thread as "they want a god to kneel down to and not a set of principals to stand up for".

Pick a team. The others are now your ennemies.

There's also the wildcard that it is the hardest thing in the world for a human being to do to say "I was wrong". These GOP fuckers will just keep on doubling down because no matter how insane it gets it's easier than saying "you know what, maybe when my daughter-in-law got all mad and started yelling at me last year at Thanksgiving I should have listened to her"

When Trump loses in November (inshallah), will the stink of his being a two-time loser be enough to push away his supporters, or are they in so deep that they'll breathe in his stench until he dies, and beyond?

as soon as they realized that they would suffer any real consequences for committing insurrection, most of the retirees that make up Trump's most crazy base bailed on any thought of actually sticking their neck out for him. They like when he's racist and hateful, like they want everyone to be, but the actual hardship of destroying democracy is a little too much work. And I don't see the far right militias organized nearly as well as they were before jan 6th. I think there's still a sentiment among white supremacist groups that Trump sold them out in the end, even if he is their best chance at an American apartheid. just my observations on the front lines of chud central

That, and Biden is in the White House now, meaning the executive branch is not filled exclusively with people either actively working to overturn democracy or too cowed into submission to stop the former group. So any attempt to do another J6 would see that branch actively oppose them, instead of enabling them.

That the President of the United States was going to personal congratulate each and every one of them and shake their hand for committing felonies. He loving bailed on THEM, but they'd rather believe that it's the Feds they have to fear, not the fact that the guy who encouraged them to fight like hell didn't do poo poo to help them (other than to stand around and watch them do their work on tv) and didn't pardon any of them. I thought for sure he would pardon them as I watched the events unfold, the fact that he didn't is so telling about exactly what kind of person he is, to anyone rational and sane. Not to his feral hog base, though...

Totally normal thing to hear about in a functioning democracy: https://x.com/ReutersLegal/status/1791427855190028538 Donald Trump wants to control the Justice Department and FBI. His allies have a plan quote:Donald Trump’s allies are assembling proposals to curtail the Justice Department’s independence and turn the nation’s top law enforcement body into an attack dog for conservative causes, nine people involved in the effort told Reuters. If successful, the overhaul could represent one of the most consequential actions of a second Trump presidency given the Justice Department’s role in protecting democratic institutions and upholding the rule of law.

The latter. There's no replacement as this is essentially a cult of personality thing now. Maybe one of his sons but can't see it happening. It's interesting and alarming seeing this all play out but people will all too easily vote for a dictator who promises to hurt their perceived enemies. This time it's all the more extraordinary that the guy in question is such an obvious fraud and exceptionally stupid, even by stupid people's standards.

ManBoyChef posted:This is something I find incredible. Most of the MAGA base are boomers right? They are the generation that the government invested the most in and received the benefit of a post war economy. This is tangential and goes to a different point than yours but, I may have mentioned this numerous times already but the most memorable moment for me in the John Adams series was when he's sitting at dinner with all the French aristocrats in clown makeup and he says: "I must study politics and war so that my sons can study mathematics, commerce, and agriculture... so their sons can study poetry, painting, and music" Which apparently is a real quote of his, which tracks because it's way too good to have been come up with by some HBO scriptwriter. And it really illustrates how divorced conservatives in general are from the philosophy they supposedly follow, which was that the early generations of this country were doing all the dirty hard work so that those of us who come later can have an easier time of it. Not so we would have to fight the same stupid battles and have the same lovely lives they did. We're supposed to make things better for our descendants. We're supposed to be fulfilling the Star Trek dream of working to better ourselves and to enrich the human experience through exchange of culture and pure expression of the mind, no longer having to be mired in these stone-knife leopard-skin-wearing battles royales over meat scraps and chattel mates. But this is all undermined by people who refuse to let their experiences be given less than what they think is the respect they're due. If the new generation has it easier than theirs did, if the kids are able to skip fighting a war and can instead be in an off-Broadway play or a Cirque production, it's not a fulfillment of Adams' dream but a betrayal of Hubert Chudman's MARINES HAT. Personal grievance and selfishness instead of quiet satisfaction that they did what I would have thought they'd considerd their sacred DUTY to the next generation.

And let's just reiterate because it should probably be said every single day from here to November - even if polls were useful, national polls are pointless, especially in an election which will probably come down to 50k votes across 5/6 states

I feel like not testifying in your own defence when the charges are about something you specifically said and did is not a good look. Like it's either you are so innocent that there's no evidence against you and you don't have to do anything (no) or you are so guilty that you will immediately incriminate yourself (yes). I don't think the prosecution even need to call him themselves, if he isn't called in his own defence he's basically admitting guilt.
