Shishkahuben posted:I'm curious to see how, if at all, trungo's performance will fluctuate this year. Is his support in freefall as it becomes obvious he's hosed? Does his inability to stop stealing from the cookie jar affect his campaigning? Do particularly damning court cases hurt turnout, or inflate it? Can Haley stay in the air long enough for Trump to hit a mountain? Many such questions! I mean, pretty soon no one in the GOP is going to have money Their fundraising is abysmal, Trump is actively hiding data showing his donor base drying up, the legal fees and fines alone have to be approaching a billion dollars, if not more If it wasn't for the sheer massive presence and influence and infrastructure of RWM I would say the dems were effectively in a free election, but voting is still crucial, absolutely no complacency I am curious what the GOP's campaigns look like in the summer when they are heavily in debt and out of money though. Do they just do cheap town halls? Do they even buy commercials? I've never quite seen a modern major political party just run out of money.

TulliusCicero posted:Mormons are also by far some of the top family history researchers in the world, and if you are interested in where your family comes from at all in terms of your ancestors, you've probably used their sites. It's even crazier, cuz ancestry.com and it's affiliates are owned by the Mormon church and that company has singlehandedly been responsible for digitizing countless probate inventories and church records as well as wills, etc. Historians owe a big, weird debt to the Mormon church even though they're doing it for their own bizarre reasons.

Riven posted:Also they use that infrastructure to posthumously baptize everyone’s dead relatives in an attempt to bring about the end times. I remember at some point they were posthumously baptizing Jewish victims of the holocaust and that really kicked the hornets’ nest because what the gently caress makes them think that baptizing people who died in the name of their religion is appropriate?

I mean, a lot of GOP establishment seems to loving hates his guts for messing with the money train, they just keep it behind closed doors. It's why you have things like the election case going forward in Georgia, where the local party apparatus feels secure enough in their position to oppose him.

Look the Church is just trying to do what’s best for humanity. Yeah and they said they stopped but I think they just got quieter about it. I’m an atheist and don’t really care but for the people who do it’s horrific. But since I don’t care I will say that the digitization of records they did is quite amazing. My great grandfather emigrated from Ukraine and nobody in my family really knew from where but using Ancestry some cousin found his birth recorded by the local chapel in this little village. Some Mormon missionaries probably digitized it and put it Ancestry to be found.

Shishkahuben posted:I'm curious to see how, if at all, trungo's performance will fluctuate this year. Civil court convictions won't move the needle much if at all for Republicans but if he gets convicted of criminal charges that is where things are going to start to change. You'll absolutely see some double down harder than ever, and some violence too, but the ones who's brains aren't entirely mush will throw up their hands and walk away from the 2024 election. The civil cases are seen as appealable or just about money but the criminal cases can see him locked up (as much as he could be anyways) and that is looked upon very differently by a decent sized minority of Republicans. That minority won't be going to vote Democrat but they also won't vote for a prisoner either. So if the voting pattern holds similar to 2020 (which many think it'll be close enough to that to not matter) and a decent minority of R's refuse to vote for Trump he'll definitely lose. Won't take much. A few percent will do it since the vote was a very close call last time. The more interesting part to me is if they'll also walk away from R down ballot votes as well. If they don't vote for the Senators and Congressmen you could see a R party wipe* out in a year that should be a slam dunk for them. Which would be a huge deal and a real game changer going forward. *a "wipe out" for this coming electoral map would mean that the R's lose a seat in the Senate and lose 2-3+ dozen in the HoR. The R's are H E A V I L Y favored in the Senate for this electoral map so that losing a single seat to the D's would be pretty huge. The D's supposedly are modestly favored to get the HoR for the 2024 elections this go around but a 2-3 dozen swing in their favor in the HoR would also be huge. Honestly though if the D's can "just" hold the Senate (even that is a long shot) and get back the HoR that would still be a big deal. They're expected to lose the Senate in 2024 though if 2020 voting patterns hold due to the map.

bird with big dick posted:Well hopefully she’s successful and then she and the non trumpy republicans can get back to their core values of eliminating social programs so they can give tax breaks to the wealthy, and removing women’s bodily autonomy. My friend in particular is literally a RINO, in that she’s told me she’s keeping her GOP affiliation so she can call herself a “lifelong Republican” when she speaks up for workers’/women’s/human rights at the only community political meetings of consequence where she lives. And yeah she gets shouted at by chuds but doesn’t give a gently caress because she’s had 5 kids and a red faced manchild in a Punisher shirt calling her a Communist isn’t going to faze her. I realize that, like, the one Republican I talk to regularly is not at all representative of the party but at the same time I’d like to believe that when Turmp finally dies (literally or politically or ideally both) there will be a massive course correction and room will open up for people whose motives are honest and who have good intentions—even if the way they go about realizing them is misinformed. I’m reminded of another friend of mine who, when I met him, told me he was a young earth Creationist and his goal was to become a teacher so he could push students towards embracing Christian truth and Republican values…and is now a bisexual Communist who grudgingly participates in Democratic voter registration drives but would much rather be organizing a commune for unionized workers. His personality and values haven’t changed, he just became educated enough to recognize the right wing evangelical and Austrian School bullshit he’d been fed for what it was.

Mormons are crazy bullshit but they are smart enough to slowly change with the times unlike Catholics, in our lifetimes they will probably 180 on same sex marriage and other issues because they want to keep dragging people in and “saving souls” and making money. I also find Mormonism just weirdly fascinating.

Your one friend reminds me of my dad. My dad is very much a conservative though not really about social poo poo but he hates trump chuds a lot and he just doesn’t get why these people still love trump and do all the awful. He is gonna vote Biden this year(voted Biden in 2020 and Johnson in 16) he wanted to vote for Haley but the abortion stuff and ivf has disgusted him. He is thinking of being independent.
