Lame: Checking to make sure the burger shop doesn't poison the burgers buy giving a few to secret service first. Preferred method: buy 5x the number of burgers you need so that the chance of someone dying is only 20%. Sounds like nonsense to me.

Edgar Allen Ho posted:None of these dweebs can respond to Donnie poo poo slinging on his level. Puddin hands, meet Lyin Ted and Little Marco. It's not just that they can't beat Trump at this game. It's that they refuse to even PLAY the game or engage Trump in any way, it's a freaking joke. I mean yeah Ted and Marco tried a little and failed but those guys have been humiliated enough by Trump and understand that they have no chance challenging him in 2024 and no way will they enter this cycle. But Ron and Tim Scott and Haley are entering this race (presumably in the case of Ron) somehow with a plan that they might win without ever engaging or attacking their main opponent. Their runs seem based entirely on the presumption that Trump will either not run (too late, he's in the race), will drop out, be jailed or die or become medically infirm prior to the election, or that he will somehow refrain from throwing poop at them like Donkey Kong throwing flaming barrels. In the case of Haley, and maybe Scott, perhaps it's just a VP audition in which case it might actually make sense. But no way will DeSantis ever be Trump's VP even if he wanted it, Trump would never tolerate a potential rival to be one heart attack away from taking his job. I mean it looks like maybe DeSantis is just a paper tiger anyway and he just wouldn't have the chops to get elected President, Trump or not. But it certainly looks like he would have been a lot better off just sitting this one out like Ted and Marco instead of making the motions to run. He's (making motions like he's) coming at the king. And it's looking like he missed. Badly.

I'm hoping/assuming that the WH just picked up all the burgers and used cellphones to place the orders. I mean, just say "Hey, we're having an office party on this day and want to order 200 big macs."

If you want to win the primary you have to out-petty trump and that's tough because he's a natural bully and has been doing it on camera for decades if you get past the primary, the "decorum-friendly fascist" can win the general but you won't get out of the primaries. I agree that trump will get the nom but lose the general.

I mean I get it though. If they're gonna run at all, they have to start campaigning at some point. They don't have the option of waiting for Trump to be disqualified, but if by some chance he does, they need a backup. It would be pretty unprecedented, at least in recent history, to only put forward one option in the entire primary, especially one as volatile as him. But it is funny how the entire party is now defined by loyalty to him, so he's essentially impossible to run against. But in some sense, how can they just... not?

Speaking of how potential Republican primary candidates will deal with Trump, Mike Pompeo has opted not to. Following numerous indications he was preparing to run, he's out of the race before it began, citing people who told him "you'd be crazy to run." https://twitter.com/mikepompeo/status/1647001366441897985 He does threaten to run in the future, though.

It is a strange dynamic that he is pushing for this when everyone else in the party is going the other way. I guess since he appointed the judges who overturned Roe he's unassailable on this topic https://twitter.com/washingtonpost/status/1647047603132022785

The supreme Court really needs to come down on the right side of sanity this time around when it comes to the abortion pill. The precedent that it would set that any lunatic judge can completely uproot medical care for the entire country at a moment's notice is absolute loving insanity.

These two sentences pretty much sum up my  over the whole GOP primaries. If the candidates are all going to acknowledge that the GOP is defined by Trump and loyalty to him, why even run in this cycle unless you had some plan to get around that fact outside of "maybe God will strike him down with a thunderbolt/stroke".

There is still some kind of desperate hope of the so-called Sane Republican within the party who can right the course and bring the GOP "back on track" and divorce it from the loons that have taken it over. In a world where even Mitt Romney has announced that he doesn't support Trump's indictment, this is a complete pipe dream.

Honestly I wouldn't be surprised is Ronnie Boy dropped out before he ever officially jumps in. It's near impossible to oversell how much of a craven coward he is, and this would be the first actual for real primary fight of his career. Ducking Lil Marco but squaring up with Daddy Trump is odd.

He's deflected it by saying that he is smart person who used the law to protect his money, as a big smart money man does. It was brought up a lot in the last election. In my mind, if you are a GOP candidate is to say you lost the election to Joe loving Biden. You lost, the voters rejected you, we can't win with you on the ballot because you're a loser. But they can't because they'd have to acknowledge the election as a legitimate. The problem the Republicans have is that their minority of crazies control the party but they don't have a person who can unite the majority or pull of enough base people. They are all aiming for the same piece of the pie, whether they believe it or not, but don't know how to be genuine to the crazies.

Zwabu posted:These two sentences pretty much sum up my I see what you're saying. I'm undecided whether going scorched earth against Trump is the way to beat him or maybe the alternative which perhaps Haley, Scott and Pence are trying which looks more like what Frank Luntz proposed (non paywalled version). Which is basically to criticize his erratic behavior and distractions and making everything about himself and propose to do better while praising his 'accomplishments' but avoiding harshly criticizing Trump. I tend to lean more in the direction of, DeSantis is the only one who could beat Trump and would be most likely to do so by going viciously scorched earth and out toxifying Trump, it could work but would probably lose him the general election so it's starting to look like he won't run at all.

Instead they'll do what they've been doing, posture up hard knowing that their bullshit is going to be reigned in while they get pats on the back from the insane primary base they've courted. Almost everything coming out of the Florida legislature since 2020 has been designed to grab headlines and be held together just long enough for DeSantis to win the primary. After that the whole loving sandbar can sink into the Atlantic, who gives a poo poo.
