Yes, because I don’t think Republicans have any direction post Trump. Where do you see this going? Feel free to post in the Trump thread instead; that is the more logical place for the discussion.

What did Kamala do prior to her ascension to VP? How did her presidential bid go? Tell us, how many votes did she get in the CA primary?

I am on the record stating she might be the 2nd worst candidate the Dems could nominate after Biden. The Dem party will survive her; in fact I think it wine better off. What happens to Republicans after Trump? Witnessing DeSantis’ crash and burn and the relative low CB popularity of Vance, I do not see a future party leader. And right now the party is very much about the man, not a platform.

New ad hits:

Elon Musk retweeted a masterpiece on Kamala Harris created by Mr. Reagan.

The ad showcases Kamala Harris, her strengths and her record.

Here is the transcript:

 

“I, Kamal Harris, senior Democrat candidate for President because Joe Biden finally exposed his senility of debate. Thanks, Joe.

I was selected because I am the ultimate diversity hire. I’m both a woman and a person of color. So if you criticize anything I say, you’re both sexist and racist.

I may not know the first thing about running the country, but remember, that’s a good thing if you’re a deep state puppet. I had four years under the tutelage of the ultimate deep state puppet, a wonderful mentor, Joe Joe taught me rule number one, carefully hide your total incompetence.

I take insignificant things and I discuss them as if they’re significant. And I believe that exploring the significance of the insignificant is in itself significant. Talking about the significance of the passage of time, right? The significance of the passage of time. “So when you think about it, there is great significance to the passage of time, and there is such great significance to the passage of time.”

And Another trick is trying to sound black. I pretend to celebrate Kwanza, and in my speeches, I always do my best Barack Obama impression. “So hear me when I say, I know Donald Trump’s type.”

And okay, look, maybe my work addressing the root causes of the border crisis were catastrophic, but my knowledge of international politics is truly shocking. “The United States shares a very important relationship, which is an alliance with the Republic of North Korea. It is an alliance that is strong and enduring.”

Just remember, when voting this November, it is important to see what can be unburdened by what has been. And by what has been… I mean, Joe Biden. Do you think the country went to over the past four years? You ain’t seen nothing yet. (Cackle).”

Not if the country gets into a major war because of her. She's a marxist. Her rhetoric drips with it.

Respectfully disagree. The G.O.P. voter is for the individual that can begin the process of terminating the over reach of the federal government. The only person, so far, who has demonstrated this ability is Trump. 

Except Trump has not.  On the contrary, Some of Trump's last actions as president was to embrace the authoritarian state.  There actually was a GOP candidate that has spent his entire governorship fighting back overreach of both the federal government and their corporatists allies.  The GOP decided the unprincipled populist carnival barker was the better answer.

Your Joe was the one seperating children from their families, extolling the virtues of Vladimir Putin and Xi, glad handing the January 6th riot, and calling your own servicement losers for being POW's. The Republican party cheered him on at every point. Its the part of Trump, and its useless at this point to pretend it retains any of the usual standards of the party of Reagan, because it doesnt.

Yes, I watched i. Some of it I enjoyed, some of it I didnt. You want a point by point commentary, because somehow I dont think you want one.

The source of this tale appears to be John Kelly, who was WH COS at the time. It turns out Kelly is quite a character;

One can see pretty clear evidence of TDS in this article;

"I think we need to look harder at who we elect," Kelly said during a Friday interview with former White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci.

Mattis also suffers from TDS;

Mattis also suggested that Trump disrespected the Constitution in the way he responded to ongoing protests surrounding George Floyd's death.

How, exactly?
 

Quote

 

Mattis had indicated that Trump was overstepping his authority with his decision to deploy the military to counter violent protests.

"We must reject any thinking of our cities as a 'battlespace' that our uniformed military is called upon to 'dominate,'" he said, referring to Trump's direction to governors during a conference call.

 

Apparently, Mattis has dementia, Alzheimers, or something, if he cannot remember this;

George H.W. Bush was POTUS when the LA Riots happened, and both Marines and National Guard went in guns hot. I do not recall Mattis ever saying a bad word about Marines in IFVs patrolling around in South Central LA. Pertinent reading;

How much of that money is illegally donated via Act Blue and their money laundering operation (which has been exposed by James O'Keefe among others)?  Just asking.

Yoy keep sticking to the party line.  You’re ok with children being trafficked. There is no way to tell if the kids are in escort of a parent or not. There is a substantial amount of child trafficking going on there across the US Mexico border. Like your bad faith defense of transgender surgery of children while lamenting the castration of Gays in the 50s.

Is letting Putin invade so long as its a modest incursion the same thing? 
 

What about sending money to Iran so they can commit the October 7th attacks.

How about glad handing October 7th? And 2 years of rioting which saw far more disruption than Jan 6th?

And the democrats cheer on or at least defend, looters, rioters, murderers, pedophiles, rapists, mass murderers and antisemites. 

You may not realize this but the square where the rioters from Hamas and company assaulted police and tore Down US flags to replace with the Hamas flag, its directly opposite of the US  capitol building. Look at a map.

perhaps, but we do know explicitly that Trump stated he preferred military personnel who were not captured, with reference to McCain. He also has insulted a gold star family publicly. IMO it is not hard to imagine that former President bone spurs has a low opinion of military service.

Quite right. We need less spending. We're NOT going to get it with Kamala OR Biden. 

I want X, Y and Z. 

Trump will get us X and Y, but possibly not Z.

There's zero reason to think Trump will get you anything you want when it comes to fiscal responsibility, either.  We had two years with him as POTUS and Rs controlling Congress.  We were still running deficits (deficits higher than we had at the end of Obama's and Bush II's terms).  His tax plan, despite claims at the time and his claims at the debate, was not generating enough revenue to let us start paying down the debt.

On 7/26/2024 at 2:02 PM, rmgill said:

So, ok, great. What do you want?

A leader.  Someone willing to be honest with people and tackle some tough issues.  Our current spending/entitlement programs are one of those tough issues.  There's zero chance we get the deficit under control by not addressing them.  Trump is not that leader.

Assuming he wins this Nov he's facing a massive deficit currently.  The only way to cut that back is a) collect more revenue b) lower spending or c) both.  For the first you don't necessarily need to raise taxes... you could just fund and modernize the IRS so they can go after wealthier Americans who aren't paying everything they should be.  Problem is... Rs have been against that measure the last year.  Why?  Cutting spending is only serious if you look at entitlement programs.  I mentioned in another post a few weeks back if you cut back SS spending by half and got rid of just the 10% of Medicare that's fraud and waste (I get it, you'll never 100% eliminate those... but we can do better and a 10% cut with most of it coming from them is still reasonable) you've now cut our deficit in half.  That's not even on the table with a Trump administration, though.

I don't know how to make it any more simple for you to comprehend

  • People know there is a conspiracy being orchestrated by the political elite and their corporate media puppets to lie and gaslight them, its been shown to be true repeatedly
  • For example just three weeks ago the political / media machine were pushing the narrative that Joe Biden was "sharp as a tack" and they had never seen him in better mental health, despite clearly showing this was not true in the debate, not to mention over the course the last 5 years.
  • These gaslighted people sift through all this constant disinformation to find what little truth is hidden amongst it
  • These gaslighted people try to construct what the truth might actually be i.e. conspiracy theories
  • People like you come in after the fact and while fully admitting the political elite and corporate media lied to these people, and then claim its the people who are at fault for trying to determine what the actual truth is

I don't know how to make this any more clear for you - no matter how often one thinks they've been lied to no one has the right to concoct whatever story they want to believe and call it truth when there is clear evidence to refute it.  In this most recent example we had folks going "Biden's incapacitated!" when there was vid proof of him walking off the plane.

The best example has to be this continued notion of a stolen election from 2020.  Trump still claims it.  His inner circle and much of the R base (not just MAGA, Rs in general) believe it.  There isn't a shred of evidence, or truth, in it.  Murph's been embarrassing himself for months on here trying to still spin it.  You can go take a look at that thread yourself.  Most of those stories literally take seconds of searching to discover are complete hogwash.  Many of the links from supposed reputable MAGA-leaning sites (why does anyone take gatewaypundit seriously?) are relying on accusations that have clearly been disproven by authorities already (and this includes R-leaning law enforcement and state agencies).

This is the problem with conspiracy theories - the truth doesn't shut them down.  Folks will just spin whatever they want to believe in a different direction.  No matter how much of a pity party one wants to throw themselves there's no justification for that.

As for the criticism of the MSM, let me repeat something I said on here a few weeks ago.  How does anyone here even know what they're saying when you all claim not to listen to them?  Here's what folks are missing - many of these sites may get a story wrong at first, but unlike these trash far-right websites their reporting will change when they get more info.  Many of these sources post redactions or apologies after the fact.  Folks on here would know that if they actually bothered to follow these stories outside of screencaps of initial takes from these organizations.

Unless it involves cutting back on entitlement spending like SS and Medicare.  Rs have shown they don't want that (remember the Tea Party?  all for reigning in government spending... unless it benefited them like those two programs) and Trump has gone along with them in pledging not to try.
