DeSantis to Announce Tomorrow Night at 6PM, in a Twitter Interview with Elon Musk
Bill MeluginI know this is just an update to yesterday's post so I won't leave it as the top post for long. Thought it was worth mentioning, though. But can anyone beat this Juggernaut?
@BillMelugin_ BREAKING: @FoxNews confirms Florida Governor @RonDeSantis will announce his 2024 Presidential run tomorrow night, 6pm ET in a Twitter Spaces interview with @elonmusk.

BIDEN: "I've spoken at length with President Loon of South Korea."
— RNC Research (@RNCResearch) May 21, 2023
South Korea's president is Yoon Suk Yeol. pic.twitter.com/v9xj1EdpBI
That wasn't the only awkward moment of cognitive decline during the trip. While in Japan, Biden once again told troops that his son Beau had died in Iraq. Nobody corrected him.President Cornholio:
President Biden told US forces stationed in Japan that his son Beau perished in the Iraq War, a video obtained exclusively by The Post reveals -- after the president stoked questions about his own mental acuity by making the same incorrect claim at least twice last year. "My son was a major in the US Army. We lost him in Iraq," the 80-year-old president said during an informal visit with troops at Marine Corps Air Station Iwakuni Thursday.

There is no rationale for a DeSantis run.
DeSantis running in 24 is silly, pointless and counter-productive.
Any stage that has Donald Trump on it is going to be centered around Donald Trump, DeSantis and the rest of the chuckleheads are going to be blown off of that stage, get less than 10 pct of the primary vote and be humiliated in the end.
But I guess we have to go through this nonsense I suppose.
Sad.

And it surprises *anyone* that Japan is rearming and boosting up its military? They know they're probably going to have to go it alone.

I'll admit I was wrong about this. I was skeptical that DeathSantis would run unless Trump flamed out and the road to the nomination was clear.
I'm still not sure why he would announce this now. He has enough name recognition to wait until at least the end of the summer. We are heading into the season where most normal people -- ie, his potential voters -- aren't paying much attention to politics.
I suspect this timing has more to do with his donors than it does any strategic element. Getting in now only paints a bigger target on his back than he had before. Watch the media seize and pounce.

He'll hide in his bunker until election week is done, then come out to proclaim himself, once more the victor with (whatever number the GOP nominee got +1).

Even if he doesn't win, it'll position him for 2028. The 2024 run will introduce him to the party voters who aren't familiar with him yet. Then in the next presidential primary - when Trump presumably won't be running - he'll come in as the clear front-runner.

I have no problem with Ron DeSantis announcing a run. He has planned this for a while. The Florida legislature has changed Florida law so that he doesn't have to resign as governor to run.
DeSantis' surrogates have been trashing Trump for a while, which is why Trump has attacked DeSantis.
It's politics, not beanbag.
We are expecting things will NOT be turned upside down before 2024. And the election in November of 2024 is still a long ways away. A lot more stuff is going to happen.

I have no problem with Ron DeSantis announcing a run. He has planned this for a while. The Florida legislature has changed Florida law so that he doesn't have to resign as governor to run.

I'd like someone to ask Desantis if he thinks Kari Lake won in AZ, and if there was election fraud. Simple yes/no answer, same with 2020.
I know Musk preferred Desantis and I don't know if this will include financially, but at this point I can't put it past him leaning on the amplify button of Desantis people compared to MAGA people on twitter.

The idiotic Beau Biden thing is a classic sign of dementia.
Anybody that's dealt with somebody with dementia knows - they tell the same stories, ask the same questions over and over and OVER again, no matter how many times you've heard the story or answered the question.
The story thing in particular is something they do to cover the fact that they don't understand what's actually happening. They retreat to their familiar stories when they can't understand the conversation taking place.
That's what's happening with Biden. He told the lie about that moron Beau so many times when he was just a Senator and nobody cared enough to actually correct him, that it became ingrained in his mind.
So he retreats to that story whenever talking about anything vaguely military to try and act like he knows what's going on.
It doesn't matter how many times EVERYBODY points out its a fucking lie. He's incapable of remembering anything other than his stupid story about BEAU DIED IN IRAQ.
The dementia just gets more and more pronounced.

Smart move by DeSantis to announce on Twitter with Musk. Very savvy.

Or, he could stay in Florida, remain being an effective, conservative governor, maintain Florida as a Bulwark against a rapacious and tyrannical Federal Leviathan, advance the "Florida Is Where Woke Goes To Die," philosophy, incorporate it with the MAGA/America First movement, galvanize and ingratiate yourself into the Trump base and see how things shake out over the course of the next four years...

Good for DeSantis to challenge Trump. There is this idea in the GOP that we must eliminate conflict in primaries.
Conflict is what is likely to highlight policy differences such as on immigration, foreign policy like Ukraine, voter fraud in 2018-2022, Deep State corruption and nail down the flag for a candidate on those.

How long before this sends Trump and his most ardent supporters off the deep end.
He should welcome strong opponents, as it'll make him stronger and show that, if he wins, that he deserves to face Biden.
I also hope it shows his supporters that if he loses, he wasn't meant to be this time around. Though I'm not sure they'll take it that way, as I think we're seeing in polling where Trump beats Biden, as even moderate middle right Republicans are agreeing that in a head to head Trump is better, while DeSantis is losing because Trump's strongest fans are just going to cry at home and act just like NeverTrumpers this election cycle.

“U.S. immigrants are required by law to register with the Selective Service System 30 days after their 18th birthday or 30 days after entry into the United States if they are between the ages of 18 and 25. This includes U.S. born and naturalized citizens, parolees, undocumented immigrants, legal permanent residents, asylum seekers, refugees, and all males with visas of any kind which expired more than 30 days ago.”

While in Japan, Biden once again told troops that his son Beau had died in Iraq. Nobody corrected him.
It seems that Beau Biden is dead
But, what place, day or time can't be said
And of what cause? The answer
Might be ringworm or cancer
And his name wasn't Beau but was Fred

If nothing else, and assuming Trump gets the nom, it will sharpen him up for the general. At this point, I doubt Sleepy Joe is capable of being sharper than a weather balloon.

Sadly yeah I fear so
I went out with a girl named "Uduakobong" once
I dated a girl named "Toni" once. It was tough to use that out loud in utterances of love. Reminds me of the scene in Fletch where he says he loves Larry over the phone to a young and dewy Geena Davis.
That film had two girls I crushed on for ages, Geena being one and Dana Wheeler-Nicholson being the other. It was rough seeing her playing the trashy addict girlfriend in Tombstone

While it is virtually certain that Trump wins the nomination, waiting for a “better year” has never really worked out for anyone. The only credible candidate I can think of who benefitted by waiting to run for POTUS is W in 1996.
Everyone else who waits, watches their “turn” pass them by.

DeSantis is making a huge mistake. He should not be doing this right now, if at all.
If he is so hellbent on doing this, however, he needs to answer two questions. One of them I know he'll ace, but the second one - not so sure.
First, is there a problem with illegal immigration at the southern border. He's got that one nailed.
Second, was Biden legitimately elected POTUS? If he was, then go for trying to get his job, but then you're going to ignore all the revelations that have come out about The Fix, especially from the Durham Report? If he wasn't legitimately elected, and the recent news implies that the Feds used their tools to persecute an innocent man, what makes you think that you'll do any better?

The purpose of a primary is to find your best candidate. That's done by establishing your platform, articulating your plan to achieve that platform and generally convincing people you have the ability to accomplish it either through what you've done in the past, or somehow showcasing your ability to do it.
You want a coronation? Move the the UK.
This is a worthwhile process and if you don't have the stones to do it, or prefer hurling pejoratives and spreading salacious rumors, maybe you should sit this out. Because in the end, it's about us, the people, not you.
This will also harden whomever the candidate is because you know Democrats are going to throw rocks at the last person standing.

I also hope it shows his supporters that if he loses, he wasn't meant to be this time around. Though I'm not sure they'll take it that way, as I think we're seeing in polling where Trump beats Biden, as even moderate middle right Republicans are agreeing that in a head to head Trump is better, while DeSantis is losing because Trump's strongest fans are just going to cry at home and act just like NeverTrumpers this election cycle.

Assuming that the Dems don't raise fraud to the level of Arizona and Biden continues to rot along with his policies, DeSantis must make an economic appeal to people in the Midwest who were Obama voters, then Trump voters to win the general election. And that means fighting with his GOP donors over America First trade, H1B importation, foreign policy like shipping bucks to Ukraine, and shutting the border.
Social issues like trans or fighting with Disney will only take you so far and that is why the old GOP playbook of Karl Rove focusing on white females in the suburbs needs to be permanently chucked. Economics benefiting all people is what drove Trump to gain millions of votes in 2020.

What Dems did in 2020 is part of why they'll probably never lose again. They set the bullshit number of 81 million votes, and now they know they can fraudulently add up to that many, and still keep the media and their moron voters believing that they are actually fairly winning elections.
Without mass mail in balloting Republicans will probably fall back to their traditional numbers of the previous 2 decades of elections, but Dems will continue to scrounge up 81 million votes, having people believe Biden is monumentally more popular than Barack Obama. So now Republicans need to legitimately find, or siphon off from Dems, an extra 20 million votes each cycle.

Without mass mail in balloting Republicans will probably fall back to their traditional numbers of the previous 2 decades of elections, but Dems will continue to scrounge up 81 million votes, having people believe Biden is monumentally more popular than Barack Obama. So now Republicans need to legitimately find, or siphon off from Dems, an extra 20 million votes each cycle.

Not one fucking word from anyone in the military about Biden's false claim.
If it were Trump, Milley would be on the phone with Xi providing targeting information for the White House. There would be a joint press conference with the joint chiefs, service secretaries and secDef to condemn the president to the world.

If Trump is past his sell by date, better to know in the primaries than general. Ditto his legal issues in DC and GA make it prudent to have someone else lined up.
But, if DeSantis tries to default to the std GOP playbook of wedge social issues, it will tell us something too. To get the Trump only voters in 2024, you gotta dump that playbook and embrace America First in foreign policy, trade, and immigration. Only that will generate big turnout.

I'm baffled by this insistence that the legitimacy of Desantis's campaign turns on whether he makes Trump's central complaint his own. It's a state issue, as they are in the saddle about how they conduct elections, with little federal oversight in practice. So what's it matter what Desantis thinks about this, given any solutions aren't coming from the federal government anyway?
I also think it's makeweight. I doubt there's a single Trump supporter who would suddenly be Meatball-curious if Desantis gave a perfect answer on this issue.

Our only hope is that the Dems are so emboldened, and have so much faith they won't be stopped from cheating, that they go too overboard or do even less to hide it.

All the get out the vote and mass mailings aren't going to do shit when some Obama apointed judge gets to just decide who's president by allowing rampant cheating.

I always thought that "The Juggernaut" would be a cool name for a boat, if I had one.
Posted by: Mark1971
A boat named Juggernaut has to have a big ram on it.
If it's owned by a Moron, the ram has to be a mermaid figurehead of Partonesque proportions.

I went out with a girl named "Uduakobong" once
***
In the '90s at work I met a pretty young lady who was clearly of Indian extraction, dot-not-feather, but with the loveliest BBC-newsreader, Received Pronunciation English accent. I was very much tempted to ask her out . . . until I came close to her. She *smelled*. Of clean earth, you know, like garden soil, not like anything foul. And she looked clean herself. But it was just too much for me.

Whig - if DeSantis really wants to win, that's how he has to do it. However, if he's doing that, he will be telegraphing to the GOPe that he's not for sale. I don't think they'll tolerate two Trumps on the ticket. The other problem with that strategy is that he needs all the Trump supporters behind him if he has a chance to fully utilize that base to go for the undecideds in the general. If he splits the Trump vote now, I don't see him getting them all back easily unless he runs as Trump Jr.

How can you be worrying about such minor issues, when trans people are under attack...and so close to Pride month!!
Oregon: vandalization of the tampon dispensers placed in the boys bathrooms by law. An Oregon high school asked boys to stop vandalizing its bathrooms after stocking them with free menstrual products, according to a Friday email obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation.
A picture of the vicious crime is here. I warn the faint of heart, they may not be prepared for the image contained within: https://tinyurl.com/3e35hwnc
A person who is menstruating should be using the female bathroom regardless of gender identity. Problem solved.
trans kids do! If they’re presenting as boys and they’re on their period, why should they be required to use the girls bathroom?!
If they're presenting as a boy and living as if they were, then there is not any reason for them to use the girls bathroom. I wish everywhere would switch to non gendered bathrooms.

Raymond Mattia called the CBP because illegal aliens were trespassing on his property. Television station KVOA in Tucson reported that family members said when CPB arrived at the home, Mattia walked out and was mere feet from his door when agents began to open fire. One family member said, “I had heard all the gunshots like it was just a war. I just went into shock like I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. They told us there was an estimated 38 shots fired at him. You know that’s excessive and we want justice and we want to know what happened and why there were so many Border Patrol out there shooting at him.”

Who got multiple new trade deals that brought manufacturing jobs back to the US? Who had the best record on the southern border since the BP has been keeping stats? Who produced the best economy with the lowest unemployment in all categories in many decades?

"He only shut down his state for a few months," is honestly a terrible defense.
I wouldn't call it a defense, just part of a rational examination of your options. Was DeSantis good on the Wuhan Flu? Not really, but there were far worse examples. In the end, everyone looks like an ass on this topic except for maybe Noem. But some recovered faster than others.
Personally as I've stated before, I don't like either Trump or DeSantis running. Trump is too old, DeSantis is too good a governor and too useful in his position right now. And neither can win.
But I like to discuss philsophy and history and issues, divorced from their odds at success or who makes the best candidate.

You have to sue and force reluctant states like GA and AZ among others to clean their voter rolls. The reason why the Dems run continuous voter registration campaigns is to employ their voter harvesters. So under the Motor Voter bill, every state has to cull its voting list on a regular basis and there are multiple organizations doing that in various states for the GOP. The second is that Trump's rallies (widely panned here) also identified registered likely voters which all the stupid mailout GOPe campaign mailers and robocalls don't do.
Ditto on suing early and often to get injunctions against places like Detroit blocking out voter observers. The police then cannot say without legal consequences that nothing can be done.

Target is Woke. Woke is Target. That's the brand. They've been building that brand for a decade, and they are loved for it. Their customers view Target as a "safe space" for their wokeness. Target has nothing to fear from backlash, and there will be no effective boycott.

In 2020, the only way to have stopped the steal would have been for half the country to go apeshit when all the counting was stopped in the middle of the night.
I suspect had a specially chosen DHS or some such task force broken into one of those vote counting facilities and captured the low level shmucks counting illegals votes, arrested them, and immediately grabbed the contents of their texts to their superiors it would have been enough to stop it.
Yes, that would have been hard for Trump to setup but...its what he should have been doing.

Social issues like trans or fighting with Disney will only take you so far and that is why the old GOP playbook of Karl Rove focusing on white females in the suburbs needs to be permanently chucked. Economics benefiting all people is what drove Trump to gain millions of votes in 2020.
Posted by: whig at May 23, 2023 02:41 PM (wUSgb)
I think there is still a place for this, as we saw in VA parents will come out and vote against those that are trying to harm their children, and that's how the trans issue needs to be raised. If it can flip 10-20k voters in places like GA or AZ, then it makes winning so much easier.
Ironically one of the biggest things is DeSantis' success probably screwed the GoP big time. We all laugh that people are fleeing northern states and going to FL, but most of those people were probably more conservative, and now it's shifting states that could be toss ups, to being safe for Dems. So while we've solidified FL, what have we lost?

We got it. The election was stolen. How? What are the facts? More importantly, how will you fix it- in a material way? Crickets.

I'm baffled by this insistence that the legitimacy of Desantis's campaign turns on whether he makes Trump's central complaint his own. It's a state issue, as they are in the saddle about how they conduct elections, with little federal oversight in practice. So what's it matter what Desantis thinks about this, given any solutions aren't coming from the federal government anyway?
I also think it's makeweight. I doubt there's a single Trump supporter who would suddenly be Meatball-curious if Desantis gave a perfect answer on this issue.
Posted by: bear with asymmetrical balls - an election is simply a festival for the majority at May 23, 2023 02:47 PM (ppBhU)
My issue is actually independent of a particular state vote count. The Durham Report shows that the FIB did some very, very unsavory things to Trump, for instance. The DOJ and State and the CIA as well. If he thinks that Trump - an innocent man, I need to stress - is political roadkill and he can just step over him to become POTUS without even acknowledging the unfairness, and promising to address it, I'm not sure why he deserves my vote. You can't fix it if you don't try to get a mandate to change it from the voters.

My overall point about covid is that EVERYONE but a handful of examples were terrible on it. DeSantis was terrible on it. Trump was terrible on it.
There is not one argument that moves me one way or another about one being less bad on covid than any other. Everyone but Noem was terrible on covid, and I'd never vote for her.
Using covid as a measuring stick of someone's ability to govern pretty much leaves you with no one. So, you either walk away completely, or just throw it out as unmeasurable. It's also a reminder that our entire political class is awful.

Right before Memorial Day where we pay solemn tribute and remembrance to all who died fighting for this country. The death of anyone's child is awful and sad but he uses this like he does his first wife and daughter's death for his own pathetic purposes. Shameful even for him.

Whig - if DeSantis really wants to win, that's how he has to do it. However, if he's doing that, he will be telegraphing to the GOPe that he's not for sale.
He doesn't have the money to go it alone.
I'd wager that DeSantis would raise more money by telling the GOPe to get bent than he ever would from the party. Yes, the GOPe has the organization, but there are always those who can read the times and know that things have fundamentally changed. In any case, are you impressed with the job the GOPe organization has done lately? I'm not.

My overall point about covid is that EVERYONE but a handful of examples were terrible on it. DeSantis was terrible on it. Trump was terrible on it.
I agree wholeheartedly. To me, this is Trump's Achilles heel, his stupid response to the Wuhan Flu. He's still not backing down on it, he's all in for the shot even though its proven nearly worthless and even dangerous to your health.

303 Biden is easily beatable if you just field somebody credible. Trump is not that guy.
He had a moment in 2016, but has been losing elections ever since.
Every Trump supporter know trump can’t win, but they seem to want to do it anyway.

Everyone knows what happened in 2020, even many Democrats.
I suspect with the various admissions of "fortifying" the election that every politically aware Democrat is aware they stole the election.
They won't use or countenance the term stolen of course and will generally argue something to the effect of "we had to do it because the Republicans were illegally suppressing votes" which is just post facto justification.

I do think the real electoral issue will be the Democrats getting the Potato out of the way so they can run somebody who is equally pliable but also a functioning person. The Young Reds want their time, and if they have to pry Doctor Jane's fingers off the doorframe of the White House, they'll do it. The Potato is a non-starter, there was a LOT of voter's remorse over the mail-in ballots in 2020, and cheating can only cover so much of a stay-at-home deficit. Plus the appointed winner has to face Trump or DeSantis in the open; a basement campaign won't cut it in '24.

Please, run with this idiocy and get Ron to do the same. This is the dumbest take any conservative who has remotely been paying attention could take.
The intel community alone covering up the Biden family corruption as Russian disinformation was enough to likely swing enough votes despite the massive irregularities in the 6 states that shut down the counting on Election Day when Trump was winning and then miraculously and in statistically improbable if not impossible ways all swung to Joe.
But go on pretending none of that actually happened. See how that works out.

244 But, if DeSantis tries to default to the std GOP playbook of wedge social issues, it will tell us something too. To get the Trump only voters in 2024, you gotta dump that playbook and embrace America First in foreign policy, trade, and immigration. Only that will generate big turnout.
Agreed, but nothing in how DeSantis has governed suggests to me that he'll be another rote GOPe candidate. Posted by: Archimedes
-------
Primary debates are to make him nail his flag to the mast so that it makes it impossible for him to crawfish away. His Ukraine flip flop made resembled that of Walker's on immigration except more graceful. He has time to figure out that we have no business in Ukraine but if he doesn't stake that position out in primaries, he won't in the general.

The Durham Report shows that the FIB did some very, very unsavory things to Trump, for instance. The DOJ and State and the CIA as well. If he thinks that Trump - an innocent man, I need to stress - is political roadkill and he can just step over him to become POTUS without even acknowledging the unfairness, and promising to address it, I'm not sure why he deserves my vote. You can't fix it if you don't try to get a mandate to change it from the voters.
Eyes on the prize. Everyone here agrees Trump got screwed, and I think DeSantis does as well, but he's playing the game of trying to play to the idiot middle voters who don't want to hear about it, but who you absolutely need to win. Like it or not, it's the smart play. As a candidate, he can do nothing about it. As a President, he can.

Most people do not regret getting the vax. Biden and DeSantis both recommended the vax, why would Trump be the only idiot to stake out an unsafe position on it?

It is interesting to game out what happens if Trump opposes Fauci out of the gate and gives the ball to say...Scott Atlas.
From a medical perspective clearly it would have been better. Politically it would have required Trump to thread the needle since the FNM drove more then half the population insane though Trump himself getting COVID and quickly recovering would have been his ace in the hole.

I can't wait for the first question out of the gate to DeSantis is, do you think Joe Biden is the legitimate President and do you think the 2020 election was stolen.
There is no way to triangulate or massage that question and any way he answers it will result in him losing votes.
Or any of the other questions, every question is going to be about Trump on that debate stage.

If DeSantis had called an audible and announced right after the 2022 midterm disaster, he might be the frontrunner now. It would have completely changed the dynamic.
Instead, he let Trump kick the snot out of him for SIX MONTHS and now starts at least 20 points behind in virtually every poll.
Being good at politics matters in a President.

Jack, this is honestly the thing that could keep me home in 2024. I don't see how, if you don't get the entire GOP singing from the same hymnal on this point, you can fix this so that the GOP wins more than possibly one more election, at best. This election was stolen. Period. If the party isn't going to say anything about this - now - I don't see how it ever gets addressed. The GOP wants to elide the whole 'stolen' issue, thinking that if they simply get back to the WH it will change. It won't. Even now - with all the revelations coming out with Durham - not one major GOP figure will simply say what we all know. If that's the case, I don't see how DeSantis gets them to think differently.

But go on pretending none of that actually happened. See how that works out.

Its just weird how people get sucked into the routine of routing for their "team". Despite knowing, that the deep state's thumb is firmly on the scale. On the laptop alone its more provably certain than the germ theory of disease. Then you have all the other conspiracies that aren't. Hillary whinging bout stolen elections, now its insurrectiony to question an election result, that was conducted in a manner like no other in the history of the Country and reversed itself overnight, when counting was inexplicably shut down. Pluhleaze. Trump only won the first time because they didn't take him seriously. We don't live in a free country anymore. Its fake and gay.

193 Fifth Circuit Issues Injunction on ATF Pistol Stabilizing Brace Ban
---
This has turned into a typical fedgov clusterfuck. Head of ATF testified to Congress last week that removing the pistol brace is all that would be required to be in compliance with the law. ATF yesterday announced that pistol braces had to be removed and rendered unusable for one to be in compliance.

372 50 DeSantis was the one guy who led during the black days of the Dempanic and he continues to lead and to show all the Grand Old Pussies how to fight and win. Yet Trump hates his guts more than anyone. Go figure.
So President Trump is suppose to like a guy whose job he saved and knifes him in the back?
Oh didn’t get that memo
Posted by: Gonzotx at May 23, 2023 03:19 PM (lP3It)
Correctimundo. I don't see any rational person acting any differently than Trump is right now. Don't forget - he didn't lose like Romney or McCain did. He actually won the 2020 election. And he's an innocent man.

Why did the intel community take the extraordinary step of creating and signing a letter saying the Hunter laptop was Russian disinformation if they knew they could just rig the election? Why bother?
==
Because the more they have to cheat the harder it is to hide it. So they didn't want it to be COMPLETELY ridiculous. But, it was anyway. Massive watermain break - toilet leaking.

>>Jack, this is honestly the thing that could keep me home in 2024. I don't see how, if you don't get the entire GOP singing from the same hymnal on this point, you can fix this so that the GOP wins more than possibly one more election, at best.
I guess my point is that cheating in an election, something the left has done since the days of Tammany Hall, only works if it is plausible that the candidate could win. In 2020 the left hid Joe, with the help of the media covered up his past record in the Senate while making him some sort of grandfatherly figure that would bring the country together after that mean old Russian spy Trump.
None of that is really possible in 2024 even with the media lies. Joe's record as president is out there for all to see and it is beyond dismal. His own party doesn't want him to run.
I just don't see how they can plausibly cheat enough to push him over the top now that so many see what is going on. Maybe they will and the country is completely over but if they needed to lie so much last time then cheating in and of itself can't be enough to win every election.

ot one major GOP figure will simply say what we all know. If that's the case, I don't see how DeSantis gets them to think differently.
==
which presupposes DeSantis wants them to think differently. Maybe he does. Maybe not. We'll see what happens. Pop the popcorn.

So here's a question. Why did the intel community take the extraordinary step of creating and signing a letter saying the Hunter laptop was Russian disinformation if they knew they could just rig the election? Why bother?
Because sometimes evil people will take a shit on their victims and mutilate the bodies. Pure and simple - because they liked being cruel and evil.

The covid fiasco was a compliance test. The need for "plausibility" has been eroded enough that they know that they can just take it. And the uniparty deepstate will just sit there and grin.

Having worked in the investigating crime business certain types of criminals and crimes actually have patterns and general boundaries.
Does not apply to these fuckers.
Seriously.
These are the people gassing the lesser humans( in their eyes) and harvesting the gold out of their teeth. These are not political types. These are psychopaths and sociopaths that have swastika DNA. We are in more trouble than we realize imo.

So Elon Musk a man who literally works for the federal government (SpaceX) and relies on carbon credits from the federal government (Tesla), not to mention the good graces of the CCP, is going to interview neocon Ron DeSantis, who has the backing of Paul Ryan.

DeSantis is all nice and everything, but if he loses gracefully or if his win occasions a return of consultants like Karl Rove and David French, who then get to say to us "Trump and ultra MAGA types were bad, but finally they're gone and we're back tp business as normal", I don't know what I'll do to you. Probably stop reading your blog.

By the way Deuce, accordingly to the imbecilic logic of your co-blogger CBD, Democrat Party institutions such as the NAACP are targeting DeSantis as the leader of a dangerous (bordering on “Terrorist”
State because the Democrats want to elevate DeSantis so he wins the GOP nomination because the Democrats know Dementia Joe can wipe the floor with Fatty Meatball (BiteMe) Ron without leaving his beach house.
You see how CBD’s imbecilic logic can come back around like a moronic boomerang?
