That doesn't mean I don't agree with him on the right establishment leading the GOP in bad directions. That doesn't mean I like the far right wing like Boobert, MTG, or Matt Gaetz because I don't at all. So you hate Adam Kinzinger because of his policies? Same with Pence and Ryan, I bet.

Trump is refusing to debate, Steven Miller is having a conniption fit, and poor zuker is insisting that the corpse of Joe Biden has to be the nominee because reasons

July 22, 20241 yr 37 minutes ago, Diehardfan said: Absolutely. Not a fan of that family. D Cheney was a good dude — at least back in his congressional days — from what I’ve been told by a family member who was well acquainted with him during the 80’s. The Iraq war was a major mistake, but I think the criticism against him on the grounds of Halliburton is misplaced. Yes they made a bunch of money, but they were the only contractor capable of supplying the infrastructure necessary. I think the idea of the war being some kind of nefarious moneymaking scheme is really misplaced. He was always a hardline hawk, not much different from McCain in that regard (who by all accounts was an actual Ahole in person). But from what I was told, while he was hardline and stern professionally, he wasn’t unnecessarily rude or anything. Just your basic Cold War hawkish conservative. That all said, he certainly deserves plenty of criticism for championing the Iraq war. And the framing of him as Darth Vader combined with his own lack of charisma certainly didn’t help the public perception of him.

July 22, 20241 yr Let's check in on the "changed man"... Wow. Very much changed! So much unity! He's really bringing us all together in ways nobody could've imagined.
July 22, 20241 yr An open convention would be great viewing and bring a bunch of needed enthusiasm to the Democratic Party, but at this point it’s late in the game. The delegates will line up behind Harris and the only compelling question is who the VP nominee will be. There may have been some method in Biden’s madness staying in as long as he did — this way Harris’ chances of being the presumptive nominee are very high. She wouldn’t be my choice if I was a Democrat Strategist, but she’s got a real fighting chance and some genuine enthusiasm behind her — which is more than what Biden had.

Your regular reminder that countries all over the world manage to run elections including full campaigns in much less than half the time that Harris or AN Other would have to pitch to the US people following the Democratic convention. The idea that a new nominee would face an impossible task is honestly questionable. What the Dems need more than anything is a set of policies and a positive campaign to vote for them, if they spend another 3 months running a "we're not Trump" campaign they'll struggle. Run a campaign telling the average Joe how your policies will improve things for them, say this is what we'll do on taxes, foreign policy, health, national infrastructure and employment and how it will improve your life, don't talk about improving conditions for business, talk about how it directly improves things for people.
