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

 

[Myrtle the Turtle]

This is Donald Trump’s legacy.

Between NYRPA and the federal jab mandate for private business getting BTFO’d, it really drives home just how crucial those 3 conservative SCOTUS appointments are. We are lucky that the seats weren’t filled by Clinton, and that McConnell kept Garland off the court.

While you celebrate Roe and other decisions made recently (and in the years to come), just remember: Donald Trump, quite literally, saved this country.

I bookmarked this post back in June 2022, it feels more relevant than ever now.

The full clip is much worse. Just...holy fucking shit. It's obviously not news to any of us that Michael Fanone is a massive cocksucking glowie faggot nigger (who, frankly, deserves the gallows). But even he is clearly uncomfortable with that overripe display. Listen to the way he clears his throat- he knows how awful that garbage looks to the viewers at home.

 

[Snekposter]

You got to be fucking kidding me.

We warned you!

just good at speaking

Good? Mr. Teleprompter? No, he could smile and wave for the cameras, but whenever he opened his mouth unless he had the script in front of him he'd forget what he was talking about. Biden can't even smile or wave without looking like the confused old man he really is, and even if someone is speaking the words into his ear he forgets them instantly.

Will he be even worse ten months from now?

They will use Trump's skipping the RNC debates as precedent for Biden skipping the debates. "I won't share a stage with a terrorist" or somesuch tripe.

The Pentagon is allegedly trying to hire Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson to pay the role of President, according to TikTok

Stand-Up Trump is best Trump

I'd pay for a 1 hour special on DVD

Indeed. Comedians have been malding that he's been doing a better job than they have for the past 5 years.

Skeptical of the truthfulness of that claim but the Pentagon has tried to use Dwayne Johnson as a way to boost military recruitment in the past.

A unified leader likely would, by necessity, become a strong moderating figure. Since any unified leader would need to be in it for the long-term. As they stand now, all major factions of the left wing are self-destructive in one form or another. So, a unified leadership would -need- to crack down and tame that self destruction.

Okay but how does that apply to the right/GOP

We ve talked about how the DNC machine and the GOP machine function differently and the DNC bad habbit of rising self promoting activists, and clipping the wings of upstart rivals

vs

The GOP factions having to use more self funding and favoring more of a meritocracy as compared to the DNC.

If anything I would think trump populism would be the easiest thing to co-op. Have some GOP leaders or jr members take trump points with their own spin. Hell they dont need to play the trump hilter card they can diss trump by saying shit like

"he truly and honestly wants solve this countries problems, but he s an old 1990 new york democrat, and tv personality he sadly didnt have the political skills to drain the swamp....but thats something I m committed to doing!!"

etc

I think they tried this with DeSantis, only for the mask to fall off too quickly

The big issue with the GOP trying to pass the energy Trump has onto other people can be boiled down to this:
1. Trump himself doesn't want to get out of the driver's seat yet.
2. His would be replacements are not very endearing or crudely charismatic.

 

[Sekirodiealot]

They will FIND a way to get those unlimited votecraft works going by November. Even if they have to have Israel attack one of our ships while wearing Iranian uniforms to do it.

I have my fingers crossed that it doesn't come to that

Isn't that what Meatball Ron is doing? Vivek too, actually. Neither are doing very well compared to Big Orange himself.

DeSantis built cred with his "standing up to wokeness/disney" then threw it all away trying to skin walk trump

Vivek is the closest with repeating trump talking points but I ve delt with indians and I dont trust vivek at all, in honesty his low political status gives him the freedom to do that shit.

I m gonna struggle with expressing my thesis on this, and I m sure I will piss a few people off.

I dont believe trumps power comes from his "charisma" He isnt a pipe piper leading the MAGA. He a bully and entertainer if Barak Obama was the well spoken likable no threatening nigger....trump is fucking archie bunker and jerry springer

His performance in 2016 came from him clowning the GOP candidates...think about it. He fucking bullied the GOP front runners....and the GOP Voters liked it.

Then hilary and media kept insulting his supporters.

The whole appeal of trump IMO is this

1) he isnt a politician
2) He is a fucking asshole
3) He will go to DC and be an asshole to the political class

and that appealed to people.

Fuck his press conferences were pure entertainment because he could spank the media all day long and they would do nothing but cry about it.

Yeah the only reason why Ramastreetshitter gets away with it is because he has absolutely zero chance at any political future. The minute the heat turns up on him exactly one notch, his pajeet antics will reveal themselves and he’ll be done. But he isn’t worth the effort.

 

[The Ugly One]

I have my fingers crossed that it doesn't come to that

Swing states with Democrat governors can just make up vote totals, and there won't be consequences. We don't actually have election law in the United States after the 2020 court rulings. We have a smoke-and-mirrors charade designed to keep people believing elections are real.

We will probably have poll watchers camping out all night every night until the race is called.

 

[Pig Cups]

Too little, too late. Trump should take his empty endorsement and wipe his ass with it.


Dude could've been the heir apparent, with Trump gifting it to him on a silver platter in 2028, had he just applied some basic critical thinking. Hell, he was already widely seen as a viable in-due-time successor. But that option wasn't good enough for his egotistical ass, so he settled for *checks notes* totally annihilating his future presidential aspirations.

I guess we should be thankful that he revealed his true colors early, so it's known that he's to be avoided before it becomes time to go to the polls. Remember: it didn't have to be this way, Ronald.

Elections have been fake and gay for sixty years now, it's just so much more apparent in the current year+8.

Trump has no reason to get up on stage with Biden where he will be constantly interrupted and deboonked by the likes of Kristen Welker and Chris Wallace like in 2020. Best strategy would be to second Vivek's idea of a debate moderated by Tucker, Elon, and Rogan with no questions fed to them beforehand. After Biden weasels out, Trump can just continue throwing rallies which is working perfectly fine for him.
