The New low (I.) Q. Republicans and Ted Cruz

Just having too much potential time to commit political suicide will doom Ronnie.

Assuming Trump doesn't run and Cruz and Hawley don't recover from the Jan 6th stuff, DeSantis would have to be the frontrunner. If he chose someone like Noem as running mate, he could be competitive.

He totally checks off a lot of boxes, no doubt. Just don’t think he has the political endurance to last two & a half years in the limelight. Too much of a loose cannon for the national spotlight. If he corrals the small man syndrome & gets some effective handlers, then it’s a different ballgame.
 
Best thing that could happen is for Trump to either run (and lose again) or push his son or daughter (perhaps dual ticket with one as VP) and go to war against the likes of DeSantis et al. Would siphon votes from either side I suppose. DeSantis has a growing fandom in Florida, some of the conservatives I know love the guy cause he owns libs and talks back to the media. Apparently, that's a desirable trait for a politician.
 
I hope that check was a big one. I am a pretty frequent traveler for work (in non-COVID times) and just delisted Hyatt as an option. All my colleagues are doing the same. Our company spends millions a year on travel in non-COVID times. Host shit get boycotted.

Did they (Hyatt) cash the check from cpac?
Whatever the amount was it looks like they’ll lose more in a boycott.
 
Shit like this carries weight...



Remarkable. With un-elected junior's un-elected goose of a wife speaking at c-pac the other night and stuff like this, the parody just seems to keep spinning.

Question for the Americans or those familiar; Have American politicians and politics always been at this level of idiocy or has it gotten worse with Trump?

Gotten worse since Obama's first election in my experience. But it's probably been going downhill since the days of Goldwater, LBJ, Civil Rights, etc. Then took another step under Reagan's dog whistling and scandalous presidency, then took two steps up with Gingrich in the 90s. Each generation of conservatives seemingly trying to outdo the prior sets.

Cheers. From the outside, your political scene looks like an absolute clusterfeck and with just two parties, it’s hard to see a way to normalcy.

Don’t get me wrong, we have our share of morons in Danish politics as well, but we never see the levels of lunacy that you guys do.

You really, really need to get rid of the two-party system, although I realize that it’s probably never going to happen because it wouldn’t be in either party’s interest.
 
i think the "nazi" symbol thing is nonsense tbh. random pattern, slightly iffy from one camera angle.
 
Oh, dear

Marjorie Taylor Greene: Metal detectors are the 'real voter suppression'

 
She's gone and contradicted her own point. I wouldn't be surprised if she has a 79 IQ.

These people don't live in the real world. They think $1,400 is a lot.
 

When the case count inevitably skyrockets, they have their excuse ready. By that time everyone would have forgotten about the power gird fiasco, because people these have shorter attention spans than sparrows.
 
Your Congresswoman.


“Supremacy of gays and lesbians and transvestites”.

Reminds me of Jordan Klepper asking a woman about gay rights and her reply was something like it wouldn’t be fair to the heterosexuals and that equal rights would be too much.
