Let's talk about an interesting case of Dem self-sabotage. There was an attempt to fix the Dems' upcoming Leadership drought. Here in NY, however, they fucked it up to competition standards. So buckle in for a glorious case of Establishment vs Establishment.

While a lot of people floated that Anthony Weiner was being groomed to be a successor to the likes of Schumer, there's another side to the story you guys aren't so familiar with: He was being floated periodically because he wasn't cut from the same cloth as the other modern Dems. The hope was that he'd get in, be beholden to those who got him up there, and his history of actually representing his constituency sometimes would allow the old machine to keep thrumming along, put a good PR face forward. In essence, a quiet admission that the shit Obama was doing was going to blow up in the establishment's face.

Needless to say, a huge chunk of the establishment hated him, especially because Weiner, in fitting New Yorker fashion, wasn't afraid to get in a punch-up. He'd push the pulpit the way those floating wanted most of the time, but he'd happily break ranks and caucus with Republicans if it meant getting shit done that his constituents wanted. That shit, as we say, could not stand, especially because it meant potentially fucking the base slightly less. Needless to say, Weiner being exposed as having sent people pictures of his weiner was pretty much bog standard "get rid of the dipshit threatening us" tactics for the establishment Dems.

But it's the timing of when it happened that's interesting: This happened immediately after Weiner put up the Honest Services Restoration Act, a bill that had bipartisan support. While it died in committee soonafter, the bill would have mandated that if congressional representatives had financial or familial ties to a given subject in a bill, they were required to disclose it publicly. Suffice to say, this was something the establishment Dems and RINOs alike would have killed their families to stop from happening, let alone swat some little upstart Dem with an amusing name.

So with Weiner out of the picture, an attempt was made to go with another up-and-coming NY Dem with broad constituent support at the time, this time one who was more willing to toe the line. They went with Joe Crowley, another NY rep with a similar profile who, interestingly enough, was actually in office when Weiner got nuked, almost like it made it easier for the staff floating Weiner to go float Crowley instead.

Over the next few years, while Crowley was being developed for the position, Obama allowed the Progressives to run amok. In 2018, AOC primaried him and successfully stole his spot, riding on literally the most progressive spots in NY when the bulk of NY wasn't really paying attention. The establishment had sealed its own fate by destroying its own way out of the mire, via its own coterie of useless idiots.
 
AHHHH'M RAZORFIST, GOD....*snap* FUCKIN-SPEED!

Seriously, that was like a mini-Razor rant. Either you or @thx1138 could take over his channel should he go full lolcow, and nobody would notice.

Problem is, I don't like heavy metal that much. Do y'all really want me to open and close with the Alan Parsons Project?

Unironically, yes. I don't like it that much either. But I digress.

I know one song you can use.

So Biden wants to call Saudi Arabia to talk about oil and they refuse to talk to him.
Instead they now announce that they invite Xi to a state visit because they want more than just "you buy oil from us, we buy weapons from you".
the fucking saudis said that! And it is a very obvious jab at Biden. His fuckup with Yemen and Iran has turned the Saudies to go become best friends with China instead.
Jesus, and Trump was who were turning allies against the US.
How much closer is China to taking over the world? And how much is /pol/ salivating the Woke American Empire taking another hit?
Before?

I think Biden is done before 2024. He filed, but that means very little if you are on the way out mentally before and are physically uncapable. However, that is counter to what I'm seeing the Dems pull now that all alternatives are fucking even worse.

So who to go for? Kamala like previously said is looking more like a liability because she is dumber than Dubya, and worse electorally, more obnoxious to listen to. Clinton may be starting up her Foundation again to reclaim the DNC throne, but she is also in the same boat as Kamala: losing to Trump by over 7 points nationally, ergo a landslide for orangeman.

So who's left? A blue dog like Manchin or NC's governor Cooper would probably work electorally, but would never win the nomination. Bernie's about dead so the progressive wing has AOC, Warren, and other Squad members, who are complete idiots when confronted by everyday people they are losing. Cooperate Dems like Beta, most Congressmen and others are either too plastic or nobodies (or both) to run.

So unironically I think the plan is to run Joe, load him up with enough meds until his heart explodes, pray that it does before the next presidential election for sympathy points and try to carry that "dead president" sentiment to get them over the finish line, or try to ride him out until he is fucking 90. It won't work, but now that Joe is their only shot, its what makes the most sense to me.

Say all you want about Dubya fucking up, but he was actually intelligent. He had been a governor and businessman before he went into office, of course helped by Daddy Bush's money. Kumala just sucked off some guy to get her career started. She's a cheap twenty dollar whore who got where she did by spreading her legs, opening her mouth, and letting her masters do what they pleased with her. Dubya had connections, but Kamala just is a whore who pressed her luck and got in too deep.
You forget, 2020 rules. And you also forget: the campaign for HR1 and the filibuster. The Democrats are petrified of a Trump, DeSantis, or any Trump type getting close to 270 electoral votes. Or any MAGA people like MTG moving to Congressional seats that can do things like look into Hunter, or unleash an impeachment as retribution for Trump’s two impeachments.
 
You forget, 2020 rules.
They aren't happening, end of story. Far, far too many people haven't been paid off for 2020 still, are unlikely to be paid off, and a lot of RINOS who looked the other way because the Bad Orange Man was a threat to their grift are now sweating because they realize there's nothing stopping the Dems from pulling those electoral shenanigans on them, and the only thing better than controlled opposition is no opposition.
 
Get so drunk that you literally can't concede the election that night. Immediately start up conspiracy theories about Russia supposedly stealing the election. Screech in outrage that everyone thought he was a buffoon and thus DIDN'T have election rigging in place just in case.

Actually, the Russian conspiracy theory started before the election.

Hillary's running against Trump and can't quite figure out how the entire country isn't behind her and why he has a massive base of support. She still thinks she's going to win, but can't figure out how to push out far ahead of Trump. So her and her allies, including the FBI launch a conspiracy theory as a pretext to actively spying on the Trump campaign. Hoping they'll get some dirt. Except they don't find anything to end his campaign. All it does is make her base hate Trump more as they start to believe he's a Russian puppet.

Any doubt over "Her turn" happening is ignored by pretending it factually can't happen. Her allies in the media keep reiterating this to her base. It's factually impossible she'll lose.

Then right before the election, the FBI freaks out Trump could win and they'll be found out. So the FBI attacks her campaign, so they don't look biased if there's any reckoning. Which unlike their attack on Trump, actually damages her campaign.

Still, in denial, her and her supporerts literally lose their mind that Trump won. It was factually impossible. The only explanation is the conspiracy theory, both in how the factually impossible even happened. As well as to try and not take responsibility for losing to Trump. The credibility of everyone across the establishment who pushed this narrative is in damage control.

They act as if the timeline has been corrupted, and they must do everything possible to get rid of Trump. Going on an ever maddening spiral of insanity. Believing and being told "the walls are closing in" on Trump. Endlessly through an ever crazier cycle of scandals and conspiracy theories. Yet they can't get him out, they can't correct the timeline.

So much so that over a year out from the next election, across big tech, the media, the democrats and other stakeholders. They concoct a plan to "fortify the election." They will do everything they can to undermine Trump. Actually start a real-life conspiracy theory to ensure Trump loses. At every level they will attack and undermine Trump.

Shortly into this, a pandemic breaks out and it's immediately politicised. As the establishment has to be against anything Trump does above all else.

Action is taken to stop people coming from the epicentre of the pandemic is labelled racist. By default, anything done to prevent the pandemic by the Trump administration has to be attack. They're encouraging people to go out and hug Chinese people to own the Orange man, all while the facts of the pandemic are getting figured out. "Oh shit." Overnight they reverse course and attack Trump on the pandemic from the other side. While constantly undermining anything he says. Institutions act the maximise the idea of, "Trump causes the pandemic" and so its threats are overblown. How deaths are counted are maximised as part of an election campaign. Proper information can't get out, because the pandemic is now a gift to them.

A giant wedge pushes the country further apart as the previous Russia hysteria migrates to pandemic hysteria.

The news and the internet gets further weaponised as a political tool. Obsessed with controlling the narrative. Anything they don't like is "fact=checked." They can't handle the idea of people thinking for themselves, because they may support Trump.

Still suffering from the shock of the last election, they still question if they can win. So they end up having a senile old man who they think is the safest bet to beat Trump. At every level, they change whatever rules they can make and do everything they think they can across the election system to ensure he wins. In the process, potentially corrupting it. Lots of people don't need to be directed to be dodgy with the rules to ensure Trump loses.

Trump loses, yet only just. So now what? The pandemic hysteria continues. Vaccines, Vaccines, Vaccines!!! All the while the senile old man is bubbling along doing a shitty job.

They further crack down at online censorship out of fear their conspiracy to stop Trump get's exposed for anything not quite legal.

The world's economies have all shrunk besides China. The post-pandemic world is in sight.

Meanwhile, Russia starts placing troops on its border. Threatening to make good on its long-standing threat to invade Ukraine. A threat that is the result of multi-decade policies the senile old President supported. The US is now in the weakest place it's been for ages. The senile old man is sleeping. Nothing is done to prevent the war. No one is in charge.

Panicked and not knowing what they do. The weaponise every aspect of corporate power and the entire global financial system. Enact mass censorship and every tool of non-military power at their disposal.

Which every non US Vassal state looks at and goes, "shit we need to move away from these systems. They are direct tools of US foreign policy that can be used against us." The easiest way is to start implementing Chinese alternatives alongside them as well as a push towards making new ones. To take place in globalism as it now stands is a threat to your national sovereignty.

The covid hysteria now turns to anti-Russian hysteria. Those that said it was racist to ban flights from the centre of a pandemic, now want to unperson an entire Russian people with extreme xenophobic fervour. Pushing for policies that would actively start WWIII.

The media now knows nothing but pushing maddening hysteria. To not think starting WWIII is a good idea, makes you a secret Russian agent, just like Trump was. The further censoring of online and fact checking ramps up. People's ability in this hysteria get even worse. All ability to think is now gone.

So yeah, the Russia conspiracy and all the hysteria caused by Hillary and her supporters as done so much damage to the US.

EDIT: I left out the BLM hysteria distraction which occurred as part of the get Trump out campaign and also when the COVID bullshit and contradictions were getting a bit much.

I actually listened to the Shapiro/Maher podcast yesterday while doing some yard work. The thing that struck me was that Maher seems like the kind of Democrat you could actually get along with.

He’s certainly to the left of me, but he’s not trying to troon out my kids, realizes that Communism is a pretty shitty system of governance and believes that free speech (not just popular speech) is pretty damned important. It’s not a high bar but he, unlike the modern Democrat party, passes it.

If he was representative of the modern left’s beliefs, we wouldn’t be in nearly as bad of shape as a country

Maher, the more I think about it, is the type of liberal that desperately wants to go back to the status quo of around 2009-2012. IE before the woke anti-life shit sank in and the left were the cool rebels that just took power and scored some major policy wins (Obamacare and Gay Marriage) and the right were the evil, stick in the mud religious right Dean Bitterman types who were square as fuck and anti-fun and constantly censoring shit.

Had Trump not sued Maher and made shit super personal in terms of his TDS, I can totally see him going right wing or at least become an alt-lite/skeptic type.

But at the end of the day, for all his self awareness, Maher just wants to go back to the days when it was cool to be a lefty and Obama was king. He's the equivalent of the kid who's parents are splitting in the mother of all nasty divorces and who thinks he can force of will make his parents stay together and regress back to they were before the marital split hit the point of no return, if he screams and shouts enough and yells at them for fucking shit up.

I think they have just about given up. Even Bidens SOTU felt like more of a campaign speech than anything else but even so it fell flat.

It is hard to see while it happens but after the fact it is easy to spot that a change has happened. A lot of the young progressive and energetic always online and always working hard to push the democrat message seems to have lost all enthusiasm and drive. In one of the more super progressive places (Resetera) I saw a thread about Biden wanting to fund the police in his SOTU speech. There were no anger there were no "acab" there were just some weird complete defeat and people posting "So now we are funding the police? Welp, guess I am never voting for anyone ever again".
Similar reactions to his repeated promise at SOTU to bring a "15$ minimum wage".
Even things that would just a year ago would have been a lightningrod and generated a LOT of people tweeting/ retweeting/ protesting for a full week, like the significantly out-of-context CNN push of "Trump said he admires Putin" didn't even get any traction and fell off the news within hours.

This all to me speaks of the progressive and loud engine that pushes the democratic party and the young voters that they have turned their back on not just Biden but to the Democratic Party and to political engagement and voting itself. I don't know how you measure this in polling but I feel there is absolutely a huge trend where all these progressive voters and their energy is completely missing now. Biden will have a tough time come midterms if his base has just given up.

Several months ago somewhat in jest but also quite seriously I suggested that Biden should just re-run with his promises in 2024: "medicare4all, 15$, student-debt-relief, defund the police, etc etc" because the progressives are like goldfish can only think about a single issue at a time and have short memories. @Gehenna corrected me and said these broken promises would not be forgotten but would result in their base just losing interest and motivation and it will cause them to just not show up for voting at all.
I was not sure if he was right or not.
I see now that @Gehenna was right and I was wrong. Biden has completely destroyed any enthusiasm and trust he had from the vocal progressives and they are just no longer going to come and bat for him.
Midterms will be a bloodbath.


Slight PL. A personal anecdote on how much things have changed in the last 12 months. A close friend of mine still works in big-tech in the bay-area. He said that he now sees on internal message boards people publicly with their name saying things like "we have to stop focusing on this progressive bullshit and instead fix the economy and bring the jobs back home", this and similar is said by people that up until recently had serious TDS and were both on the "it is her turn in 2016 and pro-Biden "vote blue no matter who" in 2020.
Even in big-tech in the bay area! people are no longer afraid to flame the progressives or biden, even people with the worst TDS you could imagine just 12 months ago.

Biden can't recycle his old platform, especially since he hasn't done a damn thing about it when he had a (granted) paper thin majority of 50+1 tiebreaker majority in Congress.

And given how his ENTIRE administration has told the nation to eat shit and die over high gas prices, you honestly fucking trust him to god-damn waive student loan debt if he gets re-elected? Or even BEFORE he gets re-elected as a hail mary pass to try and get SOMETHING done?

At this point, I truly believe in an utterly nihilistic black pill way one has in situations like this, that Biden and his ilk WANT World War 3, purely for the sake of starting a global war of death and suffering in a final desperation bid to get reelected; based on the fact that no sitting President has ever been kicked out of office during wartime. Or worse, to declare martial law and do away with elections all together and give themselves the excuse to scorch earth kill/imprison Republican politicians and voters.

I'm betting that the Dems get some random non-white senator for 2024 and try to pull another Obama. Not sure if it will work again, though, and really it does not necessarily have to be non-white. They *honk honk* got 81 million voots for an old white dude after all. Would've been the same *honk* if his VP was the same.

Dems and progs might talk the "whitey bad" and "men bad" talk, but they don't always walk the walk: they would 100% vote for yet another old coot white dude if they had to pick between that and a POC Republican woman.
Kamala was supposed to be that, especially after Corey Booker flamed out on them (too much baggage in terms of being in Congress long enough to have a past voting record that could be used against him vs Obama, who was in the Senate for a couple of years and came in after the infamous Iraq war vote that has long been weaponized against the DNC Congressmen who made the craven decision to vote for war) and the rumors that Stacy Abrams has skeletons in her closet that made it impossible for Biden to pick her.

Most of the "young blood" are damaged goods at this point; Mayor Pete COULD have been but his Marie Antoinette moment over gas prices has killed his career prospects at this point.

Elizebeth Warren might be their only hope but even then, there are rumors she's being groomed to be the new leader of the Democrats in the Senate as part of a faustian bargain she made to backstab Bernie.

I thought she rather openly hated AOC. With AOC recently losing her status of cream of the crap -- the leader of the squad or whatever. Something about some exceptionally stupid political move that even the squad left AOC hanging on? Voting against Israel or something?

AOC is NOT Pelosi's heir. She's basically the appointed tard wrangler for the Squad in so far as the fact that AOC got "the talk" to keep her in line while the rest of the cunt squad have flocked around Maxine Waters, who most definitely is angling to steal the throne from Pelosi the second she steps down.

Pelosi has NO fucking heir and has had to basically give up any hope of retirement to enjoy her ill-gotten graft in what years she has left, because of AOC costing her heir his seat combined with the fact that Democrat civil war is inevitable when she retires, with people like Maxine Waters being deemed "unacceptable" by the money men in charge of the party.

Also, AOC is most definitely going to try and run for President the second she legally is able to. That is the end goal for the Justice Democrats with AOC and having her run the House Democrats would be a step down for what they plan for her to do.

Hillary Clinton wanted to make damn sure that there wasn't going to be another Barack Obama to fuck up her 2016 run. Why do you think Biden didn't try after Obama? He'd have had the star power.
Biden actually DID try to run a primary against Hillary and had his flunkies leak stories about how Beau's "dying wish" was for his dad to run for President and "stop Hillary and Bill from demanding the nomination be handed to them on a silver platter without anyone else having a shot at it".

Hillary's media cronies IMMEDIATELY moved to squash Biden like a bug; they had media loyal to the Clintons basically accuse Biden of making shit up about Beau's dying wish and accused him of trying to exploit his son's death to advance his political career and "smear" the Clintons. They then also had the media bring up various cases of plagiarism from Biden's past to further destroy his reputation, before Obama finally set Joe down and told him he was being skipped over for Hillary and that Hillary would DESTROY him forevermore if he didn't publicly withdraw his pledge to run in 2016.

This was the final straw in creating a rift between Obama and Biden, that lasted until the Charlottesville debacle and Biden smugly telling Obama "I told you so" and guilt tripping Obama into making damn sure Biden got the nomination in 2020.

I noticed that Bill Maher has no issues with Voter ID but could not define voter suppression if he has no issues with Voter ID.
For a lot of people on the left having Voter ID is a form of voter suppression due to the Kafka-esque nightmare that is getting government ID.

I remember during the lead-up to the 2020 election, we had people unironically telling us that the reason that voter ID laws were somehow racist was because it constituted a poll tax.
That argument makes absolutely no sense in and of itself, but dies entirely when subjected to the "you should have a vax card for everything" canard.

If leftists weren't post-modernists, the cognitive dissonance would cause them physical pain. But since they're post-modernists, they literally hold themselves to the standard that discussion and debate is just a power struggle, and as long as they can silence or overpower you, even outside of the debate, that means they won the debate. "Doesn't matter, jackboots silenced you for me." It's literally religious thinking.

Why are Voter ID laws racist? That's the wrong question. The religious assumption is that no barrier to voting can be allowed (unspoken reason: because barriers to voting make it harder if not impossible to cheat). That is the unchangeable, permanent conclusion. You work backwards from there to find justifications and rationales.

No barrier to voting can be allowed -> there are blacks involved -> a barrier would be racist because blacks are too stupid to know where the DMV is -> we can't have voter ID because it would be racist against black people.

Point out they clearly know where the DMV is and can get ID? Ok, reticulating splines:

No barrier to voting can be allowed -> there are blacks involved -> a barrier would be racist because it would cost money and voting is supposed to be free -> charging blacks money even if you charge everyone money is racist -> we can't have voter ID because it would be racist against black people.

Make the IDs free? Or counter some other of an infinite maze of twisty little false logic statements, all alike?

No barrier to voting can be allowed -> SYSTEM ERROR -> "FUCK YOU YOU RACIST NAZI FASCIST! We won't let you because just absolutely fucking because!"

Why can't we do X? Because it violates the religious tenant of Y. Every excuse, justification, and twisted pretzel logic to explain why we can't do X (or rather, can't violate Y) is literally insane money gibberish. Once you realize there are certain tenants that the left takes as holy scripture, unbreakable truths that the very world must twist around to conform to, even if those tenants are completely fucking wrong, and they'll do whatever it takes to keep those tenants safe - logic, reason, and facts be damned, well, things make a lot more sense. Drilling down through the madness to find the unassailable "truth" that the leftist is defending is great fun, too, as it lets you predict the madness, to a point.

There is no way to break this thought process, by the way. Your only way is to find the non-religious leftists and moderates and force the change through. The leftists will go to their dying breath screaming about how you cannot violate the holy scriptures of things they pulled out of their ass.

Once you realize the leftists literally are a political religion, everything makes a lot more sense. Unfortunately, I don't really know how to deprogram cult members, especially when they have the backing of the entire media apparatus, all of academia, most corporations, and every unelected government official.

Maybe next time the leftists try to bomb us into a marxist revolution, we will follow them into academia and put them and their cathedrals to the sword rather than let them brainwash generations of our children.
 
I have two freezers full of turkeys, chickens, and other meats. I have a generator for power to run said freezers in case power goes out (but now question how I can afford to keep enough gas on hand to run it long term?).

Late answer, but you do a staggered run until you are out of fuel. A freezer can keep itself for 6-8 hours at worst, a day at best, depending on where it is located and how often you access it. Only turn it on when the temp gets above a threshold you are comfortable with. It lets you still preserve food until you find a pedal generator. With a pedal generator, you can keep stuff frozen so long as you do a 2-hour cardio daily. First, however, do a long run to lower the temp. That way you can keep it cooled.

I don't mean this to be disparaging, but really, that quote"the Church is the opiate of the masses" it quite true. And if it disappears, then something else will fill the power vaccuum it leaves behind. In a rough sense the media and "science" has replaced it. Like, try to argue with someone that believes their phone over you. No matter the argument you make, you can't win. Because they trust their phone, more than they trust you, more than they trust their family.

“A person who was demoralized is unable to assess true information. The facts tell nothing to him. Even if I shower him with information, with authentic proof, with documents, with pictures; even if I take him by force to the Soviet Union and show him [a] concentration camp, he will refuse to believe it, until he [receives] a kick in his fan-bottom. When a military boot crashes his balls then he will understand. But not before that. That’s the [tragedy] of the situation of demoralization.”

It has nothing whatsoever to do with religious thought or creed. It is simply egotistic tyranny disguised as something egalitarian to hoodwink the people.

It's not religious thought. It's a religious thought process.

Look at every woke piece of shit out there. You can't change their mind on things, because they hold those beliefs as a religious belief -- unflinching, unchanging. They work backwards from there to justify it. Logic and reason need not apply.

America's racist, white people are evil, black people are victims, gender exists. Show them a racist black person and they will literally flinch and look away because it doesn't fit the framework of their religion. Point out they have historical facts about America wrong and they will literally shout over you to prevent you from speaking.

To the American Left, Government is the new God, Science ™️ is its Bible, and Scientists are the preachers. Saint Fauci is more than a meme to the Left for a reason.

It is religion perverted by those in power and the fact that nobody is willing to confront this is sickening.
 
Richard Nixon did nothing wrong when it came to watergate. He had every right to spy on these fuckers.
McGovern seemed like an alright guy, kinda like Jimmy Carter. It's still a massive abuse of power to pull a Watergate, especially when it goes unpunished like Obama and Clinton's actions

All Washington learned from Nixon was to make sure that other presidents didn't get charged for something like that; no way in hell Obama and Nixon were the only presidents that used that power.

Oddly enough, you never heard the Left screeching about Trump trying that on the campaign trail.
 
Romney's 74... Political sins are fountain of youth for Mormons, I guess.
helps to be born rich, but yes never smoking, drinking, consuming caffine or partaking in seed oils, and always using sun screen is literally what experts say to do to stop aging. Which does bring up the question of why you never see many good looking mormons, or mormons that age well.

also if you can have fun without smoking, drinking, consuming caffine or partaking in seed oils you're probably a fucking loser or secretly degenerate. its literally been a trope since the days of Rome. Not only that but being so pure also correlates with being much easier to scam which is why the federal government has an entire office in Utah specifically to deal with Mormons and people's ability to trick them out of their money. anyone with any experience with degens could see Jack Murphy, Nick Funetes or Dick Masterson were manipulative grifting faggots, which is why they only pandered to the alt-right types that are into having fun without smoking, drinking, consuming caffine or partaking in seed oils.

its literally why utah is the fraud capital of the US. there's a reason Mittens had to pick that state to even win an election after his reputation took a nosedive from 2004 onwards.
 
It's not religious thought. It's a religious thought process.

Look at every woke piece of shit out there. You can't change their mind on things, because they hold those beliefs as a religious belief -- unflinching, unchanging. They work backwards from there to justify it. Logic and reason need not apply.

America's racist, white people are evil, black people are victims, gender exists. Show them a racist black person and they will literally flinch and look away because it doesn't fit the framework of their religion. Point out they have historical facts about America wrong and they will literally shout over you to prevent you from speaking.
Aye, it's not sarcastically called scientism for no reason.

Honestly a better term for this is Statism. I was skeptical when some Farmers proposed that the State has replaced the void left by Christianity in religious dogma, but you can't deny that these people are making a very good case for this to be the case.
 
Bill Maher is just sad to listen to. Yes he absolutely wishes he was back in the 2000s complaining about Bush and his bullshit wars but the fact that he still clings to the left who now think Bush was a good guy after all and wars are great and peaceful working class protests should be violently suppressed just makes him seem sad. I can grant him that he does at least attempt to call out the left on this at times but he's just another useful idiot who'll vote blue no matter who, no matter what, so nothing he says holds any weight any more.

I don't see the signs at all that she's seriously positioning herself for 2024. That sounds like a desperate media wishcasting. They may be on board for some more election season profiteering with the Foundation spinning up again, but she's stayed out of the spotlight for the most part and what noises they've been making look more like just desperate fundraising to keep their legacy from being completely blown up by Biden's incompetence.
She's staying out of the spotlight because she doesn't want to be associated with Biden literally and figuratively shitting the bed. Her campaign is going to be entirely "Oh if only I had been president the last 8 years, none of this would have happened but it's not too late!"
