American Politics XV: Trump and '24 Already....

[Port Caverton]

You should establish the "Iowa Free State" as a last bastion against Communist tyranny from the (D)s

i am currently establishing secessionist efforts right now, the DNC realignment schedule is the beginning of the final offensive against rural americans in favor of the coastal elites and the megacorporations, it is time for a national divorce and an ultraagrarian state to be born where no cities are allowed and only farmers can be president

Lib. What we need is a country without a minimal wage and legal ownership of nukes.

And agrarianism is cringe.

[The Jamesian Republic]

So Pol Pot?

pol pot, but remove everything bad, and replace everything bad about him with everything good about me

Yeah I would rather not see the population of Iowa get a Cambodia in the late 70’s treatment.

If anything Alabama should be one of the states they primary/caucus in.

Ultra-agrarianism...I like the sound of that.

Do we still get awesome things like the B-21 raider and super carriers?

Did he invent the microphone..?

[Forsher]

the radical left is removing iowa from 1st in the nation because they are scared of me, they see my posts on this website and they fear me and they know that i have massive sway in this state and that my endorsements will make or kill a campaign depending on my decision

You know, it actually does feel like a lot of politicians are afraid of you. Not Democrats and not actually you, but what you are, i.e. a synthesising mechanism projecting the projections of the opposition back at the politicians themselves.

People like Trump are all about attacking what they think people think the Democrats are doing. You tell us what you think people think the Republicans think.

It reminds me of the Keynesian beauty contest, actually:

We have reached the third degree where we devote our intelligences to anticipating what average opinion expects the average opinion to be

I just wish that King John quote was so easy to find.

Matt Taibbi has dropped a whole thread on Twitter repressing news about Hunter Biden's laptop, I've read it but can't see the scandal exactly. If someone can trawl through some 40 tweets, do let me know what the scandal is..link

I only gave it a minor perusal. I don’t know Talibi that well. Seems to like to spin conspiracy theories.

Still; I would be concerned about company confidential information being exposed. Why was a laptop holding that “abandoned” at a shop. Usually; a company has their preferred repairs.

Still; there is the “damning” evidence of Hunter arranging a meeting with the exec. Not exactly damning as that stuff happens all the time. Now if there are illogical acceptance of Burisma bids?…worth looking into.

Still isn’t the Post owned by Murdock?

Anyways; I will be curious to the upcoming Hunter investigations. I suspect they will be like the Hillary “investigations”. I expect ohhh how about 52 investigations with no really discoveries?

The fact the Republicans were presenting this as a threat doesn’t really make is sound like a legitimate investigation.

If there was anything to it they'd have used it by now.

You guys watching the rollout of the new B-21 Raider? That thing looks like a UFO!

Don't know how it relates to politics other than thanks politicians for approving the funding for it!

Could have had health care, but I guess a bomber will do...

[Austria-Bohemia-Hungary]

can we get Tsai Ing-wen as 2024 Dem candidate? <.<
I mean atm anybody other than the gaggle of usuals is preferable...

Amend the constitution so non Americans can run for President.

DNC Rules and Bylaws Committee officially changes Primary schedule: It's basically Biden's proposal

South Carolina 1st, Nevada and New Hampshire combined for 2nd, Georgia and Michigan combined for 3rd, then Super Tuesday. The full DNC has to approve it, and the states involved have to be willing to change their schedules.

Doubt the states will play ball, a good chunk are controlled by Republicans who don't care what the DNC wants, and New Hampshire law requires them to be the first primary.

[Bombadil]

If there was anything to it they'd have used it by now.

I remember prior to the election Tucker Carlson doing this entire segment on some documents he was being sent from New York that would blow the Hunter Biden case open, it was all about how the documents had gone missing on their way to him, with lines like 'I'm just speculating here, but is it possible the Democratic machine have managed to intercede to stop these documents from getting to me, to you, the voting public?'

Anyway, they arrived, and he never mentioned them again.

They're always doing this 'kraken awakes' stuff, ut always amounts to nothing, but it spreads the idea of conspiracy and corruption ever further, it's all they talk about, that and pedophiles.. ironically they're mostly describing themselves. It's that Trump thing of taking an absolutely true about you into an attack on your opponent.

Seems like overkill for bombing mud huts.

B-3 Raider.

I refuse to recognize any other designation of the third design in the bomber basic mission series of the 1962 Tri-Service aircraft designation system.

The money that went into their shiny new killing machine could have gone to the education system, public transport, infrastructure...

But if we don't have the biggest, baddest toys around how will we protect ourselves from conscript Sergei and his rusting AKM and beat-up T-60?

We can have a world class military AND have adequate social services at the same time, ya know?

i mean if you wanna put more burden on taxpayers, sure

[Port Caverton]

We need to increase taxes on the rich so that both Healthcare and the MIC get funding.

[New-Minneapolis]

i mean if you wanna put more burden on taxpayers, sure

And 98% of the burden should be on millionaires and billionaires

Yeah well the people of Taiwan could do with a little protection.

We should give Taiwan nukes

[Bombadil]

It would be a quick way to set off WW3.

[Platoon of Peace]

I don't know much about economy and taxes, it's admittedly one of my weak spots, but that seems like a bit much, no?

ABsolutly not. That's like dropping a match in an explosives factory and hoping for the best.
