Seeing how it was one of the most blatant "the swamp cleans it's shit sloppily, pisses in your face and tells you it's raining with a thumbs up" I do find it more relevant than most. And it was a fucking meme for a reason.

he has to draw a line somewhere if he wants to convince people he's telling the truth.

Well he can either play it up for silly memes or be serious. Frankly now I don't think it'll make much of a difference in this insane clownworld.

Clown.. World. It's not just a saying, I blame Zuck and Dorsey for this shit. I like the lolcow goofiness too, but it's spread into irl politics and the thing is the Legacy dead media, including Tucker, have no clue.

To counter, a lot of the Tucker stuff is him broadcasting to the moderate crowd. Both unaligned and the leans on either side. That is where he needs to be the most "Presidential", the most dressed up. His rallies are where he can cut loose and talk to his base.
It's important to gauge your audience and tailor your message to them. Though like many things in modern politics the fact it should be done and done in moderation is a lost concept. Don't do it at all and you get Pence's mask off moment of just saying that you don't care about hurting Americans. Do it too much and you get Hillary's hot sauce comments. There is a difference between tailoring your message and pandering, but that distinction has been lost.

For the life of me, I do not understand why the cinnamon toast fuck the Dems thought that getting Trump booked and mugshotted would be a good idea.
Like two thirds of this forum's userbase, political affiliation notwithstanding, correctly called out that Trump would use that image to campaign within the hour. Countless indepdendent journalists also called that this shit would be exactly what the crazy orange diamond would do if given the chance.
There has to have been at least one fucking Democratic operative with a functioning sense of causality who thought to themselves: "You know, maybe we shouldn't do this and play directly into our enemy's hands." And I'm certain wherever he or she is, they're drinking hard right now, because they fucking called that shit.
I have never seen a self-own this glorious. They just gave him the greatest campaign advertisement possible.

Honestly i wonder if it's on purpose sometimes. Then they do another really stupid and out of touch thing and i realize they are just dumb.

All the self owning does not matter if they win in the end.

Scott Adams used to argue that there was a saboteur ("The Mole") in the DNC/Hillary campaign team who secretly worked to undermine them by giving them really bad optics advice, especially vis-à-vis Trump. Like Hillary's campaign slogan having "Love Trump" in it, or her constantly saying stupidly out of touch pandering crap about hotsauce or pokemon. Or retweeting articles that call her corrupt.
I imagine some disaffected BernieBro who has somehow managed to stay in his middle-management public relations position in the DNC all these years, intentionally bringing up really dumb ideas in the weekly PR meetings, and since he's the only person under 80, the old boomers keep going with his ideas because he knows all about these "meme thingies".

Excuse me while I express some... skepticism here. The only one of those I buy is Quinnipiac because it matches what I myself have personally heard. Namely that the two are just about dead even for independents desperetly looking for a third option.

This, so much fucking this. I was a smug little fuck on 2020 convinced that Trump had it in the bag when I was seeing the numbers only to wake up to insane amounts of bullshit and boom, 3 years later, here we are and zero consequences for the fucks that did the steal. They behave like retards, but they are all in bed with each other and they just always act like nothing is a problem and seem to constantly get away with it. Till this doesn't change, them behaving like lizard people won't be that big of a problem for them.

I think it was Tim Pool who was saying some boneheaded thing about how if the Dems can convict Trump, then about 70% of his voters will just go "hmm, well I guess he really is a criminal after all" and not vote for him. Maybe they're dumb enough to believe that too.

They're hoping for felony conviction that'll lock him out of some states ballots. I'm too tired to look it up, but it is a plausible democrat strategy now.

The angle here isn't to convict, because I seriously doubt any convictions would survive appeal. They're trying to shit things up enough that states with Demfaggot secretaries of states can feel justified in pulling Trump off the ballot in 2024.
Arizona, Michigan, Minnesota, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin. They knock him off the ballot in those six states, Trump loses.
Is this a bad plan? Abso-fucking-lutely. Horrid precedent and a mask-off moment for the Cathedral, not that they care. But right now all that matters is kneecapping Trump before he gets so much momentum that people start writing him in.
And honestly, I think red states need to start threatening to strip Biden off their ballots in return due to the Biden family's increasingly obvious criminal behavior. They wanted to play this game, well...

70%? Fuck no, but I could see a 10-15% being suckered by it.
Now this I see as the endgame. Either this, not allowing Trump to be the Republican candidate because "we can't have a criminal represent our party" and force him into third party or a combo of both. It's clear they don't expect him to put him actually behind bars, but generate enough clouds of shit to make him effectively unelectable either by not allowing him in the ballots, or forcing him into third party and dividing the vote. Then any sort of opposition gets trapped in legal hell for a year or 3 and even if they judge in his favor, whoopsiedoodle, too late, fuck off.
Or at least that's what seems to be the grand plan, lets see if it goes like the expect or not.

70% is absurd. But they don't need 70%. They need like, 15% to get him within sane rigging range.
Yes, they will rig it in 2024. The question is if it'll be blatant or not. Everything they've done this year and will do until the day of the election is to hamstring him enough so that they can rig it without it being so obvious that even the judiciary, who took one look at that mess in 2016 and said "I won't be the judge that sparked the second civil war," will have to do something.
