Djarum posted:I am quite surprised that Fox hasn’t turned on Trump yet. Paul Ryan, who is a garbage human being but is no fan of Trump, took over as one of the heads of Fox News awhile back. We all know he has an axe to grind with him. If anything that kind of shows how incompetent/inconsequential/cowardly Paul Ryan is that he’s so far failed to fire a single shot at Trump from what should be a consequence-free fortress position.

Djarum posted:The only thing I can think of is that he is waiting for the right moment to cause the most amount of pain for him. I would have thought turning on him during impeachment would be it but I can see him being petty enough to not want to give a “win” to the Democrats. I have no doubt he'll try to, but to do so Paul Ryan will need to conquer the so-far insurmountable hill of "getting people to listen to what Paul Ryan has to say". And he couldn't pull that one off with a Republican House supermajority. If God Himself appeared before Paul Ryan and ordered him to convince someone to walk across the room and bring him bring him a glass of water in under five minutes or he'd blink out of existence, Paul Ryan would no longer exist, he's that bad at getting people to listen to him.

buglord posted:Alright, I’ll bite. What makes Paul Ryan so uniquely ineffectual? I didn’t pay much attention to politics until Nov 2016, so I don’t really know what signifies that especially now in the trump admin where everything is extremely ineffectual but also insane and malice filled. Mystic Mongol posted:No one cared what he said or did what he told them to do, which is pretty poo poo for the speaker of the house. He also basically tripped into the job of Speaker in late 2015 after John Boehner got fed up with dealing with what a bunch of crazy dipshits House Republicans has become even then and pulled the ripcord. There were at least two people in line in front of him, Eric Cantor and Kevin McCarthy (who collectively made up the “YOUNG GUNNNNNNZ” with Ryan). But Cantor got primaried in hilarious fashion by an even crazier dude, so he was out of the running. And then McCarthy stepped up to the plate and then did the verbal equivalent of puking and making GBS threads himself at the same time during his “I want to be Speaker” press conference, so he was laughed out of contention. All this time Paul Ryan kept repeating “I do not want to be Speaker” into any microphone he could get his mouth close to, even though it was becoming increasingly obvious that there was no other viable option other than him because the Class of 2014 House Republicans were a writhing ball of really dumb assholes. So Ryan finally gave in and accepted the position with all the pomp of a lodestone being chained around one’s neck and that whole “Attach the Stone of Shame!” air that surrounded his ascension to the gavel clouded his whole Speakership. Hence his well-earned reputation as the guy nobody liked or wanted to follow who then did dick all with the largest Republican supermajority in history because nobody liked him or wanted to follow any orders he gave.

To me, it’s the sub-title of the book that’s the most hilarious. “A new generation of conservative leadership.” One of them was ran out of congress one rails less than 4 years after that book was published. The second tripped into leadership, did nothing with his new power, and then resigned a depressed laughing stock. And the only survivor of the trio is the one dude whom even his own party doesn’t want anywhere near the levers of power. It’s like Babe Ruth calling the shot early and then letting the ball hit him in the face so hard it shatters his cheekbone and ends his career on the spot.

Dapper_Swindler posted:sure but the last 2 elections must have broken through somewhat. they have to get that the country isnt just chuds. They're all-in on Trump forever. Everyone who increasingly nervously says "surely THIS will be the thing that makes Mitch cut Trump loose" is deluding themselves. There is no bottom and there never has been. There is not a goddamn thing outside the realm of possibility at this point that Mitch McConnell won't do to protect Donald Trump from even the lightest feather tap of punishment. And it breaks my loving brain that there's STILL people who don't get that. Oh and he's gonna get away with it too.

bird food bathtub posted:So I hope to hear, "Oh yeah the Senate should have this guy as a witness too don't you think?" Really tie this one around McConnel's neck. Probably be totally ignored but it's about all that can be done at this point. McConnell said yesterday he's cool with wintesses, but he's going to poison the well by letting the craziest cranks in his caucus call people like Joe and Hunter Biden in to defend themselves and make the trial all about them. He's already working triple time to corrupt this thing because he's within his right to believe it's ultimately not going to matter. That said, yeah... tonight might change the calculus a bit, and god knows what Part 2 of that interview is gonna bring tomrrow.

Yeah, if you're thinking "Surely THIS will be the death of the Republican Party!", go read that literal autopsy they did on themselves after 2012, which they fixed every problem outlined in it by going all in the behavior outlined as "problems" and riding it to the largest majorities they ever held across every sector of government.

Killer robot posted:Yeah, this. The 2012 autopsy was about how the party was selling out long-term viability in exchange for fragile short term victories. They doubled down and got a huge short term victory. Since then they've been getting their teeth kicked in in state, local, and midterm elections, with young and minority voters swinging ever harder against them. They've cemented a bangjillion young conservative federal judges on the bench to lifetime appointments thanks to 2016. This "short term victory" is gonna last a long frickin time...
