So, the shutdown probably isn't kicking off until mid-January. maybe but who knows, i dont trust the house chuds at all. bird food bathtub posted:Eh, I don't think you're thinking with enough propaganda-brain. What is actually said in a Republican-lead non-public deposition only tenuously, at best, means a drat thing. The outcome will be whatever talking points Fox vomits into the brains of the swine feeding at their trough. In their minds it will be smoking gun proof of BIDEN CRIME FAMILY thus making it absolutely clear how Joe Biden is directing the corrupt and very unfair DoJ to ensure RIGGED AND STOLLEN, violating the very constitution of our country. yeah they dont have anything and anytime they try some big daytime show hearing, it makes them look worse. they are gonna wing it and hope it helps them.

Crunch Buttsteak posted:Yeah, like I said earlier, Trump's relative obscurity on the mass media side of things is leading to a "Joe Biden (meh) vs. a generic Republican (could be anything!)" mentality, especially among the politically-unengaged who might even think that the Republican primary matters and Trump might not be the nominee. Once Trump gets back on the stage and has to answer questions and rambles on annoyingly on CNN and makes everything about him again, I think a lot of independents are going to be reminded of what he's actually like. this. i know alot of people who are like that right now.

Ginger Beer Belly posted:Things went pretty well in the Des Moines metro tonight. Local school bonds were approved, and the "Moms For Liberty" school board candidates were soundly defeated. Des Moines will have its first female mayor in history. They got destroyed all over last night, they lost a lot of the races in PA too. The anti trans/lgbt and book ban poo poo doesn’t work well for the silent majority it seems. The gop has lost the squishy moderates and dance party in their rush to support every social reactionary in the belief that it’s still Reaganland and they are beloved. Obviously Biden and the Dems need to work on various things but the gop is not in a good place. https://x.com/blockedfreq/status/1722123307124658188?s=46 Dapper_Swindler fucked around with this message at 11:46 on Nov 8, 2023 |

TulliusCicero posted:Trump is the single most toxic politican in the country, people will crawl over broken glass to vote against him. i am a moron posted:They are really convinced they own the state at this point and can do no wrong. I’m not sure if they’re even really doing normal political calculus at this point - trying to raise the threshold for voting amendments into the constitution seems like a massive miscalculation and insisting on running on unpopular platforms seems like their own hubris. Its all of this plus they have lost the suburbs and most of the squishy moderates and fence party types, the folks like my dad or my various extended family or etc who would vote for a kasich or a hogan or some other fiscal type boring guy but dislike the loud social hardline poo poo or know LGBT folks or are fine with abortion. like they arnt giant LGBTQ allies but the GOP going openly nazi over it mixed with book bans didnt help. its also the GOP refuses to acknoledge that they are not the silent majority anymore or at least not the silent majority when it comes to social issues and that running weird social conservatives who sound like weird /pol/ posters who talk about 100000 year old little girls while screaming nazi poo poo, isnt helping them. I have said it in other threads but the wine/soccer mom demo for the most part isnt the scared consevrtive dipshit, they are scared social liberals now who will vote blue on abortion and because their sons and daughters or their childrends friends are LGBTQ. yeah the social nuts still obviously exist but if you follow the moms for liberty bans, most of the ban requests come from maybe like 100 people countrywide that just spend all day doing this poo poo. this isnt a majority poo poo.

gurragadon posted:I agree that abortion is the issue that is pushing Democrats out to vote. That's why I voted this year for a candidate who didn't even have a website or picture on Ballotpedia. Glenn Youngkin isn't really a traditional MAGA Republican and he tried a "moderate 15 week ban" and tried to make anyone seem extreme if they wanted anything passed that, but it didn't work in Virginia. This year I voted to protect abortion access, and next time I'll vote to try to get a governor who will codify it into law. agreed but i think social conservatism in general is now a loser outside the reddist states and even thats not garunteed. abortion is primary motivator now but so is "gently caress social conservative weirdos".

single-mode fiber posted:I don't think it's that they don't realize, I think it's that they're stuck in last part of the saying, "he who rides the tiger cannot dismount." Trump, MAGA, the whole proto-fascist movement, everyone can see how much of an electoral millstone this has become for Republicans for years. It's a big pile of garbage that needs to be taken out, but it stinks so bad that no one wants to do it, and so the pile just continues to sit, increasing in stench. The party can't rid themselves of Trump while keeping the fascists (whose party-line votes they need to win general elections at this point); because he once delivered a presidential victory, he is the movement, and the movement is him. Those votes will either stay home, or they'll go out and primary existing Republicans (which, due to many gerrymandered districts, is the only way many Republicans could lose elections). In a vacuum, the textbook way to handle all this would be to accept a couple cycles of election defeats, punish any primary insurgents by starving them of funding and hanging them out to dry in the general elections, internally regroup and aim to start winning elections again in several years. The problem with that approach is, how many tens of millions of boomers are going to die in that regrouping time? Every year that passes, every month, puts more of their voter base into the dirt. yeah, very good post. they have made too many pacts with too many demons and now if they break any, they will get hurt. it doesnt help that alot of evangelicals are still more loyal to trump then the GOP. That being said, i do think a decent amount of them sorta do still believe or just as cope, think they are the secret moral majority and this time people will like them and show it. trumps casual awful bigotry is "more likable" then the weird desantis/moms for chudism/ /pol/ type social conservativism that the GOP has embrased fully. these guys are having in fighting and struggle sessions over weird social conservative poo poo when most chuds just want to be able to yell the n word or tell racist jokes. one had 'broader" appeal then the other.

Instead they just went as hard right as hard as possible and hosed around and found out.

selec posted:My favorite elections analyst, @ettingermentum wrote an extremely detailed analysis on transphobia as a campaign tool in modern American politics, and has also spoken about this in interviews. The theory he’s got is that by making the issue more and more central, they ultimately make themselves too weird for more normie voters who might have gone along with their campaigns but for being such freaks about what is a low-salience issue for most voters. It’s one thing to speak in generalities; but letting freaks like Matt Walsh or Chris Rufo into the drivers seat has made the campaigns on these issues much more alienating for voters than anybody imagined. thanks great article. I have theory that sorta plays into this. a while ago i read a good article about problem that effects both the chuds and honestly media culture in general and its basicaly about the death of mythos. basicaly everything has to be 100% literal and has to be explained. the article uses the example of how every movie/game/etc is has some "______ explained" video and how everything in plot is taken as literal and if not it turns into cinima sins "DING" poo poo. the chuds are in the same boat because the Q types and chuds in general think all the conspiracy poo poo is real 100 as real as the sun rising and setting. it goes deeper into that. https://www.currentaffairs.org/2021/02/satanic-panics-and-the-death-of-mythos whats more interesting i have been reading the book that the article takes alot of points from and its genuinly phenominal. its basicaly about how the social right declared war on D&D and other games like that and how alot of the ways the chuds interacted with this stuff was almost a weird toxic paracosim of what RPG gamers do. the lense of play imploded and its all real to them. so you end up with this weird chuds basicaly playing irl dnd but they believe its real. and thats what alot of the walshs and moms for liberty folks are doing too. https://www.amazon.com/Dangerous-Games-Role-Playing-Religion-Imagined/dp/0520284925

Shooting Blanks posted:He's only toxic and annoying to people who already aren't going to vote for him. To his supporters, he is the golden calf. It's easy to forget, but there were a lot of interviews with his supporters that said things like "I don't like his personal morals, but I can't vote for anyone else." or "I don't like how he treats women, but I have to vote for him because anyone else is terrible for America." sure but its also toxic to the moderates and squishy "fence Party" types who just want a boring haley or kasich type ghoul they look for if/when they vote conservative. that mixed with family and culture have pushed them at least socially leftishward. if that wernt true, we wouldnt have seen the last 2 elections happen. the chuds are write offs who will basicaly think trump is an eternal god being.

BIG FLUFFY DOG posted:; yeah i dont think the dems win kentucky in 24 nationally or anything. hell i doubt they flip any red states in general. My view is they probably keep the flip states they need and win them by somewhat larger margins depending on the senate/house canidates running. I think PA goes blue for example. casey is popular and the GOP is still searching for a canidate who isnt a nut to run and is afraid they some new nut will sweep the primary like masterano did. most of the moderate rich canidtaes are out of state weirdos who probably won't do as well either. I think biden has a bunch of weakness but i dont think he is a very very weak canidate. least not yet.
