US US Politics General - Discussion of President Biden and other politicians

 

[Vyse Inglebard]

But your average voting age zoomer is a shut-in mess who hates the world they've inherited. You won't hear from them much on public channels because they desire only to be left alone and fear what will happen to their meagre futures if they stand out. Again, they're only the majority by a hair so yes there are a lot of brainwashed retard types. Mostly we just stare and judge from a distance.

As an early Zoomer myself, 100% accurate. If people of my generation want to make asses of themselves on social media, that's their business, but kindly leave me out of it, please.

Truly, Elon is one of the maddest of lads.

iirc the theory I've seen around here, maybe from Gehenna? is that no single party is calling the shots which is why it's been such a chaotic shitshow.
I believe the idea was Klain is a player but probably be positioned by everybody else to be the fall guy. Kamala was promised she'd be a player but basically isn't. Clinton Loyalists and Obama Loyalists seem to have their roles conflicting with each other, and Jill controls access so even though she can't write up a bill or anything she has a say in who gets to talk.

My Cabal theory, of BigTech, the Establishment, and the Progs which I have been trumpetting since early 2020.

 

[The Last Stand]

The best thing I can say about our current government is that the Constitution exists.

According to the decent bunch in ET (@GuntPunt can tell you more; they're REP-adjecent teen geeks), these IN endorsements are garbo so far.

G. Pence here has the same copy and paste script with his unlike that of Oz or Vance. So, it's likely that he's just running through a list without attention for the sake of them winning. But I'll make the assumption that they are in Blumpf +BigNumber districts, so it burns clout with the online base, who are mostly irrelevant in the long run.

Trump's endorsement system sucks balls. He is conscious about frontrunners in polls and usually endorses the front runner and says "THE PERSON I ENDORSED WON. I AM THE PARTY!" Again, his ego is the biggest detriment to his movement. It sucks because he is still the best choice by far to continue it, since DeSantis is needed in Florida to continue redefining Republicanism there. Youngkin's kind of a wild card, but we should see how he does with more time. Everyone else is worse than dogshit and would revert to Bushism, besides these 3.

For Oz vs McCormick for PA Senate, my endorsement is to nuke Pennsylvania.

ah, okay, I think I might be mixing your theory and other similar ones then
but still the core "literally nobody is at the wheel" seems to hold up

I agree. Part of him still thinks these people are rational actors but they're not. His naivety is going to bite him on the ass again.

Part of me believes that if he wins in 2024 he'll still keep on Milley and all the other generals that flat out lied to his face, as well as not take a thorough broom to the various departments like he should have.

I am intrigued by your views and would like to suscribe to your newsletter.

That is also my theory.

To explain: The cabal got in power but all hate eachother. The only thing keeping them together was Orange Man bad and a stable government. Aghanistan kicked off their major internal struggles but mostly kept them quit. The cabal's attempted legislation all failing kicked it into the open and ensured that nobody is working with anyone else.

The Cabal is still de jure in power, but De Facto out of power and no one's in charge.

tbf I can see the case I've heard people make that where Oz is a bad option and basically Romney's replacement (but mainstream electable), but without the Mormon backing and pork from seniority Romney brings it'll be easier to primary Oz in a cycle or two, and even as much as a Romney 2.0 sucks at least it's not a straight dem

Literally the main thing we give him shit about: choosing bad people.

Mine would be to Minecraft Karl Rove for knocking off Sean Parnell, and for currently trying to oust Eric Greitens in Missouri, who is surviving and showing that all of the targeted shit on him is bs. Same thing is going on with Cawthorn.

 

[Rome's rightful successor]

Something about the way she CONSTANTLY moves her hands when she speaks annoys the hell out of me. It looks so stupid

I bet she thinks that's how Italians move their hands and she does that thinking she's like her Italian great grandpa or whatever far back in line that goes.

He should pick Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State. Keep your enemies closer and all that...

For a proto-boomer trying to get into zoomer pants she can't bants that well.

Oz is supposedly the malleable one. Get some solid folks also in there with him, and he'll see what America First means, probably. And they'll keep his feet to the fire, probably.

David McCormick, the Bush guy in the race, has all of the neocons and worst people backing him (probably bought them off). He is the worst guy in the race, bar none.

The MAGA candidate in the race is Kathy Barnette, a Blexit candidate who lost a race for Congress in a heavily Blue district by 20 points and claimed fraud. She's also an online candidate unironically. She's doing well because MAGA in PA, of course she would. But she can't catch up. If she got endorsed, McCormick is taking the primary.

The PA Senate race for the GOP sucks donkey balls, but it's one of those "pick the lesser evil" cases that deserved to have someone picked. Because McCormick would win it; he's got too much cash and endorsements for anyone but Oz to catch up at this point.

tbh putting killary in his cabinet just to gloat about ccing the people under her as well as her about "okay TEAM, we're gonna do this" so she didn't have wiggle room would be pretty dank

yeah iirc the guy who isn't Oz is balls-deep in China or otherwise also shit

So deep, he might as well just reveal his Chinese lovechild already.

Oz is the lesser of two evils here and hence why he got Trump's endorsement. The candidate Trump wanted bowed out and so Trump did the smart thing and supported the one that is.... acceptable. Oz is the kind who will likely make a frequent show of having morals but end up voting party line the vast majority of the time. Unlikely to be a romney who actively seeks his own interests and will put his vote there.

Basically, in the sliding scale of Neo-Con to Populist, Oz is positioned a space apart from your Romneys. Which sounds... pretty bad. Until you realize the guy he is replacing is actually a step to the -other- side of Romney. So while not the ideal candidate, Oz is progress towards the desire end goal if he wins.


Do not let the perfect be the enemy of the good.

According the celeb gossip sites I read, all the elites are currently working the crypto pump and dump and NFT scams. Apparently it's the new hotness.

Considering every day I'm getting notifications from my robinhood about how "DOGE fell over 5%" back down to 13.3 cents, it wouldn't surprise me one bit.

Fucking Pat Toomey. Anyone but McCormick in this race is better than him, even a generic neocon or RINO. McCormick would just be another Toomey term in the long run.
