They created a monster they could not control. Not Trump, but maga. They used massive psyop campaigns to indoctrinate them, destroy education to keep them stupid, and Trump (mostly Russia) just stepped in and stole them. Now, they can't even pander to their own base without being called RINOs. Moderates are embarrassed to be associated with them.
Christian evangelicals now don't want to be called that, lest they be reduced to Christian Nationalists. Who will step in to lead their cult of personality when Trump is finally gone? It's a scary thought, because someone with half a brain could actually do a lot of damage.
We are at the point where we have to win every time, but fascists only need to win once. We need to get 60 senate seats by 2026 to overturn the filibuster and enact real change that will protect our democracy for future generations.
Wait a minute. I take that back. Not ignorant, but genius. Even publicly discussing a Musk candidacy would further expose the Rs as the contra constitutional fools they are.
Except they won't. They will pick up the pieces and pretend that they are reformed, but it will still be the same old BS it always has been. Disinformation for the exploited commoners and neoliberalism for the elites.
I hope it’s irony. We don’t want another candidate when we have a loser like trump heading up the ticket. Hopefully … it will affect the down ticket.
But …. My observation for quite awhile now has been that it has never been about him. He was a tool … someone who was easily manipulated and could get them into the WH . Once there, I have thought they probably had plans for him. I have also thought that they have known all along that they could not win an honest election, considering their Project 2025 Manifesto … and so they have been working for years now to put things in place on the state level to obstruct the vote, create their own electoral college count and, if necessary obstruct the certification of that count in January. They’ve packed the courts and even managed to corrupt the Supreme Court.
After last night, Rachel Maddow asked Tim Walz if they have any plans as to how they will handle the fallout when Harris-Walz win the WH. He said they do … that they are aware that there may be every kind of reaction that will have to be dealt with and they are already positioning themselves to do just that. He said this is why they are asking people to get involved in whatever way they can because it needs to be a tsunami of support up front.
Spot on - he’s a tool that has got out of hand. When he loses this time, they’ll ditch him and back another figurehead just as disgusting (but quieter) do further there agenda. The whole ‘MAGA’ machine has to be obliterated.
Yes, you hit the nail on the head. They don't need Trump rot be competent, they just need him to open the door to the WH for him. The whole time Vance has been his running mate, I've had the distinct impression that Vance knows he's running for prez, not really for veep. That's just for show.
The DNC has strict rules and processes regarding replacing a presidential nominee. The RNC, not so much. 🤷🏾♀️ It can be done, especially if the Big Money guys threaten to withhold further funding.
I’m a lifelong Republican, but this year I’ll be voting for Kamala Harris. I just put together a short post to help wake up fellow Republicans, and I think it offers some eye-opening insights. It’s a quick read, but it could make a big impact. If you have a moment, please take a look—you might find it thought-provoking.
They have no one to replace DJT with! That’s the sad fact. They’re all DJT supporters or simply weak, corrupt, players who are as corrupt as he is, just quieter. It’s time the US admits the GOP is no longer even marginally a legit political party.
Please. You even said it yourself, he’s going to lose and take more Repubs with him. Then let that happen! You then say it would be a good thing. Then please let that happen! Let them all crash and burn for the sake of our democracy.

Yes! The only way to end this is to legislate the shit out of voter protections and SCOTUS accountability.
Elon Musk? That is rather ignorant. He was born in South Africa and is ineligible for the presidency.
The rules are out the window now. Corporations didn't used to be people and Presidents weren't above the law.
truth.
Yeah, that crossed my mind too. I wouldn't bet against our corrupt SCOTUS somehow invalidating that ineligibility.
Wait a minute. I take that back. Not ignorant, but genius. Even publicly discussing a Musk candidacy would further expose the Rs as the contra constitutional fools they are.
Yeah, I grew up in Nashville.
Yeah, lots of maga rats ready to lose the election. SO
I guess it is too late. LOL
There is no thumbs down button to select. This post would get at least of them.
Like lemmings, they should all jump from the cliff, following dear leader...😂😂😂
That entire Republican Party needs to go down like the Titanic - except there should be only very few survivors.
A rotten, despiccable bunch they are, McConnell, Johnson, Cruz, Lindsay, DeSantis, MTG, etc. - and even Nickey Haley who sold her soul.
Except they won't. They will pick up the pieces and pretend that they are reformed, but it will still be the same old BS it always has been. Disinformation for the exploited commoners and neoliberalism for the elites.
Well said William. Nicely pitched irony.

Exciting times for sure.

Trump is not like Biden. He won’t leave just because they need him to. And he knows where all the bodies are buried. Scary stuff.
🤣🤣🤣
But also... I have no faith that tRump won't win despite his incoherent, racist, horrifying performance last night. 😭😭😭
The comments section reveal that his true believers still love him.
Frustrating and disgusting, isn’t it?

Oh yes it is. Way too late.
And do you honestly believe he’d leave?

It appears that your advice seeks to install project 2025.
I’m sorry but who replaces him, JD Vance?
