I want to say he looks like Putin melted in the microwave, but no, it's not even that. It looks like Beck Bennett's SNL impersonation of Putin melted in the microwave and then came out as Stephen Miller. In the meanwhile though, Fox News is really concerned about President Hillary's health, you guys. I mean, have you seen the way she's been acting lately? All those crazy things she's been saying and doing? I think Jesse Watters is trying to get her cabinet to 25th Amendment her out of office or something

Timeless Appeal posted:I feel like if Trump had somehow became President in 1952, America would legitimately not have survived as a nation. That's not so much making out Eisenhower or Kennedy to be saints--they're not--but the time required Presidents to stand firm against US generals who were legitimately losing their loving minds during the cold war never mind Hoover's crazy rear end. As much as I think Trump's authoritarian tendencies are a problem, the fact that he's kind of a loving pussy and a moron is also a problem. He's a strong man without any actual, ya know, strength. Ehh, I disagree. The US was on such a roll in the post-WW2 period that even with the Cold War, it would have coasted mostly fine. Now, if he'd been president during the Civil War, or in 1929? Then we're talking.

Pence seems like a true christian believer. The "gently caress you got mine" buisiness branch of the GOP has always used the evangelical, the racist, and the anti government tea party branches to further their own ends. If Pence actually listens to God in his head instead of just pretending like most of the grifters, I wonder if the GOP is setting up another monster to lose control over. Or will Pence do as he's told as long as he can pursue his agenda? WorldsStongestNerd fucked around with this message at 04:14 on Mar 18, 2018 |

Shimrra Jamaane posted:It just continues to amaze me how the Republican Party just continues to utterly debase itself for the Idiot King. I could understand it in an evil logical way if it was for some intelligent strong authoritarian who was effectively pushing forward his agenda but Trump is the most pathetically stupid moron of all time and he's dragging everyone around down with him into the garbage. The Republican Party, for an entire generation or more, has been a party motivated by giving more wealth and more power to the already wealthy and already powerful. Yes, the GOP has claimed to be for many other things. There are some True Believers in the party when it comes to abortion etc, but the core motivator has been power and wealth. Most of the other claimed motivations were just to win votes. Viewed through this lense, the subservience to Trump makes sense. He's giving the party a rubber stamp to do pretty much whatever. He's drat sure fighting for the interests of the already powerful and already rich. He is feeding their primary motivation. Yes, in the long term it's likely to blow up. But the people at the top will be able to graft enough wealth that they will lead exquisite lives of unimaginable wealth and pleasure, even if the GOP implodes. It's the gently caress You, Got Mine endgame. "Late stage FYGM", if you will. Chimp_On_Stilts fucked around with this message at 04:18 on Mar 18, 2018 |

Barring goons trying to relitigate 2016 (which I scroll past) I can barely think of any point I've so much as though about Hillary in the past year other than seeing the rightwing-osphere rant about her.

Ratoslov posted:A Republican Senator that voted to oust a Republican President would be choosing to end their career. Nah, the nature of the Senate means that the only Senators who have to sweat an election before the right memory holes Donny alongside the missing time between Clinton and Obama are those up for election in 2020. If Donny gets impeached, there's very little chance voting to keep the orange idiot is better for your reelection chances than being a brave anti-Trump voice in the Blue Tsunami era. nerdz posted:Pence is way worse than Trump. I think a neutered single term Trump is the best case scenario here Pence is just a different kind of stupid idiot.

They've backed themselves into a corner where their best option actually is debasing themselves for the Idiot King. He at least is continuing their attempts at court packing and will rubber stamp anything they manage to get through congress. On the other hand if they go against him their idiot base will splinter as they face moron primary opponents who have a good chance of beating them. Plus the Trump fans who remain are their best hope of surviving a blue wave, because maybe they'll show up and vote to spite the foes of their gilded god.

How much do we know about the internal dynamics at the FBI? Are we sure there aren't a bunch of really ambitious people in the bureau who love the idea of older "establishment" types getting thrown out? I wouldn't be surprised if there are a bunch of FBI agents who love the idea of a more aggressive and conservative "law and order" state under Trump.

Chimp_On_Stilts posted:The Republican Party, for an entire generation or more, has been a party motivated by giving more wealth and more power to the already wealthy and already powerful. And let's remember why. Concentrating wealth in the upper class was a deliberate strategy for freezing social and economic mobility, ensuring that minorities would remain poor and subservient. They used the economic power of the government to enforce what they were prohibited from doing do legally.

Meh, it's at least 90% the woman. If a credible woman candidate who had Palin's appeal but wasn't a total moron and was happy to rubber-stamp GOP priorities had been in the running against Hillary, I think the great majority of Trump voters would've chosen her. And if said GOP woman were an Evangelical she might've outperformed Trump. If instead of Hillary the Dems had run a woman of absolutely identical policies but without 30 years of hate-branding by the right, Dems would've won handily. Honestly, given that Hillary was running, a die-hard GOP trans person (of either type) would only have turned off 5% of GOP voters (leading to a Dem victory, but point remains). I would dearly, dearly love to see the Evangelical base react to a trans candidate who happens to tick all their boxes right down the line. Basically what they do anyway with Trump but with a taste of "sure he/she (or "he-she" for GOPers) is a blasphemy against God and Nature, but much like how God chose the pagan Cyrus as a champion..."
