'Member ladies: you wanted this.
Pence plans to run in 2024 maybe? I am sure it won't end well but maybe it could be the JEB! moment of the election.
Pence was too busy zapping the gay away from other people, when he should've been zapping it off of himself.
Feels less like the actual coof and more like a cheap pity ploy to put a tourniquet on his polling disaster, if only for a week.

"My baby still can't eat because there's no formula anywhere"
"Joepedo has the coof, how dare you think of your child at a time like this!"
I dunno, this could be the moment they finally 25th him, or it could be an excuse to not shove him out in public anymore. It depends on if he "recovers" quickly, or if he continues to suffer from COVID.
 
And how many Boomers were CEOs of Fortune 500 companies in 1985? it's natural that years of experience and waiting out the old guard will lead to disproportionate representation of older people in positions of leadership. I generally agree with the position that there is a large trend among boomer parents to have been neglectful narcissists that caused their kids to resent and neglect them, but your point is simply nonsensical.

I don't want to go too deep on this generational divide but there are cultural differences between the generations. The better question to ask would be what was the culture like before the Boomers took the reins, during and after. I don't see things like zoning laws, attitudes to further education funding and (ever growing) corruption in politics as unrelated. There is a "Boomer" mindset, it's just that the mindset is certainly not held by all or possibly even a majority.

Millennials aren't going to be much better either. The influx of woke shit into every aspect of our lives has a lot to do with our cohort entering middle/senior management. As The boomers can be blamed as a cohort for the shit @Ruin mentioned we can be blamed for this woke shit. So I'm happy to through shit, but there's plenty that can be thrown back.
 
So if I could magically give the Millenials and Zoomers the reins to all of this today, what exactly would change? Would things get better or worse? Or would being woke bring everything to a grinding halt?

Serious question, I'm curious what economic policies they could bring forth that haven't been tried already.

Not gonna lie, I've worked in banking the last 20 years. Yes, the CEOs are often fossils, but the core workforce is indeed already Millenial. And plenty of pink/green haired Zoomers running around the office, too. As a Boomer, I'm the minority and no, I don't control any of the purse strings; I work in Risk.
I agree with @Just Some Other Guy. All those dangerhairs would purity-spiral each other with cattiness and use ESG as a pretense. People like Anita Sarkeesian would rise to the top and make anti-business decisions like price controls and increasing the minimum wage.
 
Mike Pence was in DC yesterday, who knows, maybe he'll be there today to testify to the 1/6 fags and lie about how Trump personally chased him through the White House like it was Die Hard. But he stopped by to speak with "true, tough conservatives" like that fucking poser Chip Roy who then sucked off Pussy Pence.

It's a broken record with me and this faggot Roy isn't even my congressman, but I see through his bullshit immediately. The guy has tried so hard to be the super tough Freedom Caucus republican who always acts like he's brings fire to his house speeches or on the steps of the Capitol, he tries to be the tough bald guy with a beard like he's a military firefighter dad, but whenever it fucking matters he tucks his dick between his legs and waddles away. He is just like a quarterback on the other team getting free passing yardage in the 4th quarter of an unwinnable game, he's just padding the stats.

@Gehenna I know you just do polling but you guys speak to other pollsters and political people out there, I want your company to hear this type of shit from a normie 30 something to relay to RNC cockmunchers if they're hiring you: I will never vote for Pence, no matter what he does from now on. Everyone he associates with lowers my impressions of them, and if the RINOs convince Desantis to run against Trump and force a fight and Desantis somehow wins via fortifying, I will not vote for any republican in '24, I will stay at home.

There is something about this faux machismo that conservatives easily fall for.

Folks like Trump and Limbaugh promoted it as well to some degree but also have led to a lot of grifters just pretend to act "tough" and use the right words.

And conservatives will come out in droves to vote for them.

When this is the real truth.

He had to shore up evangelical support. I get it. But there's absolutely no reason to do something like that again. Trump has already delivered on the evangelicals' wet dream of reversing Roe before any of these dignified loser GOP hacks who have promised for decades to do the same thing, and that's amazing since Trump's probably paid for more abortions than any other president.

As the muzzies say "God works in mysterious ways",

Biden is now less popular than Truman
Truman is of course famous for using nuclear weapons on civilians.

Ask the nations of those colonized by the japs over nuking them, and Truman would probably have a approval rating over 9000 percent.

Though Truman's involvement in Korea is probably his biggest fuckup.

That is the recent long term consequence overshadowed by him using the bomb on a bunch of boneheaded zealots that make ISIS look like tryhard pussies.
 
Biden has dropped under 37% for the first time. Interesting to see that their push polls are getting less and less effective over time.

I wonder how low his approval would sink if they removed the sandbags and just told it how it is. There's no way more than 30% Americans approve of him, 27 - 28% at a push.

If this senile elderly retard doesn't die from his covid (he won't) will all the dumbfucks who defended shutting down every major economy in the world for over two years for a glorified chink edition of the sniffles finally admit that maybe, just maybe, they were wrong?

Beat me to it.

If his official approval is 37%, then it's probably under 30% just in "margin of error" terms. I presume every poll I see now is skewed 4-8 points in the Dems favor.

I'm still in favor of forcing Japan to apologize to China by making it a requirement for getting their Navy back.

The Japanese Army has always been an embarrassing catastrophe so those little rice niggers can have it.

TPTB cannot conceptualize the idea that it could ever be wrong. In their minds, being wrong is like dividing by zero.

If the facts don't fit their narrative, then the facts must change, or be suppressed, or deboonked with thought-terminating cliches.

The ChiComs have gotten 5,000 years worth of fawning, buck-broken fellatio from its rivals. No other civilization has been more illiberal and contemptuous of human rights or international rules, and still been treated like gods. Cheap plastic junk is a helluva drug.

China is the last nation on earth deserving of an apology. I wish Unit 731 had caught Mao.

I think that's overthinking it. I think he picked Pence because Pence looked like a VP right out of Central Casting. He wasn't going to overshadow the boss, which is what you want in a number 2 guy. That he turned out to be a snake is just because Trump underestimated the swamp. I think we all did though, I'm massively politically cynical and I didn't think it was as bad as it ended up being.

Also Kiwi Boomers, just by being here on the Farms you're demonstrating that you're not typical for you generational cohort. It's probably a case of being too close to things to really get a good view of it as a whole. All of the five generations that are still in play suck in their own ways.
