Cruz is at heart a grifter who will pander to the less-represented wing of the party while being sufficiently establishment where he won't scare away normie GOPers. He's shifted from being pro-Tea Party/Evangelical to a more pro-Trump, anti-Big Tech position because he's got slightly more foresight than the rest of the party leadership. It's only natural for him to become a fierce supporter of Trump if he wants to get the MAGA vote.
Honestly, at some point, the only real viable solution is to take yourself out in Minecraft before someone else does. Especially when you know things are destined to get much, much worse.
"Better to die on your feet than live on your knees"
Here's the thing though: he's running out of time and ways to play his card, and he's running out of ways for it to be as effictive as he'd like. That's the problem people have.
To me it sounds like you are fedposting and trying to bait people into saying stuff that draws attention from the fbi. Better to burn out and fade away is a last option resort while there are many things you can do before it comes to that.
Except history is written by the winners, and there's always the bigger chance you'll end up on the losing side.
But if you don't fight, you can't win.
I'll just say I ain't fedpoisting because I can't keep up a facade to save my life, and then say I don't know what else to say since it seems minds are already made up about things.
The issue here is fundamentally systemic: by all rights, if you switched nothing about Antifa and Proud Boys except who they were going to bat for/what team they were playing for/whatever you want to call it, the reactions to the two groups from the side of the establishment would be completely different.
Wonderful sentiment. Few actually believe it though. Look at people's actions.
I can think of some solutions, but I'm not going to be the one to do them. Hell, I won't even point them out because there would be vans.
I know few actually believe it, that's the problem
Don’t worry he’ll do it when he finishes the wall and drains the swamp.
Me? Never. One of the reasons I stopped giving a shit about Comicsgate, Star Wars, and popular media alltogether is because I realized that there's a treasure trove of old shit that can keep me entertained. Kathleen Kennedy can do all the shit she wants to Lucasfilm, unless you force me to look into a telescreen, I'll never see it. And if the day comes when we do have telescreens, then I'd say we have a hell of a lot more to be worried about than Star Wars.
No, retard, in the middle of Powell's incoherent rant, he asked- in the context of the fact that all her allegations were bullshit, that she was raising the case in the wrong venue, and that no precedent would allow throwing out the votes of the majority of Georgians for Joe Biden- whether disenfranchising Georgians would have any impact on the outcome, which has Joe Biden winning biggly in the electoral college.
You are being very pessimistic.
My solution is start working on a second republic, defund or abolish the police and form militias. Thats the most legal thing you can do.
My Republican friends all told me Cruz is even more hated by the RNC insider types than Trump was. Cruz always seems like a legal autist type who does what he thinks is morally right and is used to being unpopular for it.
Agreed. @Random Internet Person I think it's bad to assume that everything will turn out for the best and think of possible ways it could all go wrong but it's psychologically unhealthy to fixate on those. None of us know what is going to happen. I think taking a bad situation and extrapolating it out into a uniformly bad future is not a valid thing to do because US politics has a lot of entropy and that means that linear extrapolation isn't valid. The future of the US looks more like a particle being jostled around by Brownian motion and doing a random walk than just heading off to infinity in a vacuum.
If it goes to a contingent election Congress can only choose between the top three candidates. So if Biden and Trump are both unacceptable because they'd lead to some sort of civil war they'd have to pick Jorgenson as the compromise candidate.
