Based Dilbert Merchant called it a "false because." If I understand it right it's when you want to do X but need an excuse to justify it. Some of the people with light to mild TDS need an excuse, and Metaball -- or rather, his handlers -- hope to offer that excuse before he loses to Trump.

It's a damn shame, because The Centipede was one of the best things about 2016. Seeing him wipe the floor with DeSantis and Pence would be PPV level entertainment.
On the other hand, if he was participating, those guys probably wouldn't show up because of that.

$5 that Biden will call someone not only the wrong name, but a very outdated name (like calling a random german representative Helmut Kohl)

Calls grow to ‘draft Kemp’ for president as Trump rivals falter

The “draft Brian Kemp” calls are getting louder as the many Republican rivals to former President Donald Trump fail to gain any sort of traction in the run-up to the 2024 election, which kicks off in Iowa in just six months.
The Georgia governor still hasn’t taken any concrete steps to run, but he’s surfaced repeatedly in national conversations among Republicans worried about Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ faltering campaign and the gaggle of other GOP contenders polling in single digits.
The latest salvo came over the weekend when The Washington Post’s Jennifer Rubin suggested that Kemp and Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin offer Republicans the “only real chance for the party to move beyond Trump.”
Over the weekend, former Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan was asked about Kemp’s prospects on CNN. He said the governor has put on display “what conservative leadership looks like — and he did it in a nonhateful way.”
“He’s conservative but not angry,” Duncan added. “That, to me, is the model. If Brian Kemp wants to run for president, then I’ll certainly be there to help him.”
An unintentional endorsement came from the Democrat on the panel, Bakari Sellers, who said that if Kemp runs for president, he’s “actually talented enough to make inroads and do well in that field and do well in a conservative primary and strike a little fear in the hearts of Democrats.”
Kemp hasn’t shut the door on a White House run. But he also hasn’t built up the organizational structure or the fundraising apparatus to wage a labor-intensive national campaign. He seems very unlikely to run.
He has just a few staffers working on his federal political action committee, and his political circle remains very tight. Even in Georgia, where Trump has suffered some of his most stinging electoral setbacks, the former president still leads Kemp and other Republicans in polls. That has many at the state Capitol and beyond skeptical about a Kemp presidential bid.
But note this quote in The Hill from former New Hampshire U.S. Sen. Judd Gregg about late entries to the presidential race that’s making the rounds among Georgia Republicans:
“New Hampshire is notoriously late deciding,” the Republican said. “We can be two weeks from a major election, especially the primaries, and we don’t know who’s going to win. Very late-deciding voters.”
As for Kemp, he has continued to sidestep questions about his political ambitions while advocating for a post-Trump GOP vision — while rarely using the former president’s name.
“We have to be forward thinking,” he told Fox News. “We don’t need to be looking in the rearview mirror and talking about elections in the past or things that happened in the past. We need to be telling the American people and the people of this state what we’re for, what we’re going to do for them, what we’re doing to help.”

The people who vote for Trump have already moved past both him and the republican party.
These idiots seriously believe El Naranja is the singular factor in all of this, and although I have suspicions as to why, I'm baffled as to how.

That odious witch was no doubt spitting acid at Kemp and Youngkin for being "New Jim Crow".
Fuck you. I grew up in the Dubya years. You treated "compassionate conservatives" just as nastily as you did Trump.
You, who are without civility or mercy, now plead for it?
We aren't angry and resentful because Trump told us to be. We're angry and resentful because you are cocksucking bastards. It's not us. It's not Orange Man. It's YOU.
YOU, Uniparty, are the architects of every disaster and misery brought upon the earth since I've been alive.

I voted for Trump because he promised to keep America out of a state of decline. And look where we are now, uniparty? Giving away our special stocks of cluster munitions because we're out of the good stuff BECAUSE most of the plants got shut down in the name of streamlining. More like lining your own pockets
It's not even just military but things you don't think about like baby formula. Until Covid, we wernt allowed to import any just to give nestle extra money. The Unaparty sucks cock

What will it take for you niggers to get it? As @Meat Target so eloquently elucidated, Trump is a symptom of the problem, not the problem itself.

Two actually. Vivek is one and Nikki Haley is the other (her maiden name is Randhawa and her family are from Punjab). Given how demographics and immigration has been going in the last couple decades expect a lot more of them in future elections.

Thing is, Obama and Michael Moore have said similar things.
Right-wing hostility did not start with Trump. It started because the people who would come to vote for Trump were tired of being given the illusion of choice between two parties.
Trump was the Big Orange Middle Finger to those who have walked all over Mr. and Mrs. America for decades. They don't want a third party, they want a second party.

Even King Charles thinks that Biden is a ridiculous Nigger who won't shut up and know his place.
I'd go one further and say that they want one party - theirs and nobody else is allowed a say.

Sorry, I guessed wrong. "Chinese agent" not Russian.
Other than that I was spot on.

Remember, to these people the accusation IS the crime. So yes, it's not funny and not concerning. The government wouldn't LIE to you and everyone knows the right is EVIL and thus they're both fair game and it's absolutely believable that they'd do [evil thing].

Not really anything new. Remember the Democrats tried to claim "Defund The Police" was something Republicans wanted and supported. Nothing to do with them.
