A lot of people thought she was going to go all the way to the RNC, but I didn’t think she would last that long.
Now the question is what they’ll do if Trump gets convicted. Not every trial will be delayed until after the election.
I still feel like I’m living in crazy town knowing trump is a serious contender for the presidency again.
Watch Parts Unknown when he went to West Virginia. Heart of Trump country. For good and bad it helps explain why he is the pick again.
It’s crazy how poor whites would castrate themselves and fry the testicles if it meant one illegal immigrant didn’t get a place in society.
Assuming it is just whites and poor is not correct.
Eh, don’t believe the polls saying hes in the lead. Everything I’ve read said that there was significant methodology concerns with that poll and it should never been harped on by the media like it has been.
but the media wants controversy, so they glomp onto bad data because it gives them what they want… something to drive eyes to them.
The fact that 30% of the U.S. population thinks this dementia suffering racist idiot is their messiah and will save America from downfall should scare the shit out of you.
Even if he doesn’t win, there’s a non-zero chance there will be violence and attempts AGAIN to overturn the results of the election.
Don’t expect a smooth transition of power just bcz you want there to be.
23%. In 2020, it was 74,223,975.
74,223,975 / 330,000,000 ≈ 23%.
So our country could end up being led by only 23% of the population.
I don’t think he’s going to win the election. That’s not gonna stop extremists from acting out.
Not taking that poll serious is how he was elected the first time.
theres a different between not taking the polls seriously, and blindly believing a poll that experts say is severely methodologically flawed.
That crossed my mind to, but the way Republicans are gerrymandering districts and obstructing voting has me really worried.
If we elect him, then we deserve all the shit that will happen to our country and world. There is no better example of a “never” candidate than Donald Jackass Trump.
We aren’t electing him.
23% of the population is electing him. (Not voting age, the total US population). 74,223,975 / 330,000,000. And Trump has always lost the popular vote
It’s very much minority rule here.
Nah.
Jackasses who don’t vote don’t count.
It’s the percentage of people that voted that matter, that’s it.
The rest of the Western world is watching thinking “please don’t be dumb because we don’t deserve the foreign policy consequences”…
Are you living in an even crazier town knowing that he will probably become the next president? That’s horrifying to think about lol
edit: Downvoting me doesn’t mean it won’t happen, look at the current chances, he’s leading, unfortunately.
That photo. I believe her heart will go on.
Unfortunately, so will that of Trump, in spite of how he’s been treating it for almost 80 years.
He really should have keeled over decades ago. Because of his unhealthy lifestyle choices and because that would have been much better for the entire world.
I thought covid would take him out. Those videos after he left the hospital AMA looked like he was struggling to breathe.
I did too!
He was really looking like he finally had one foot in the grave and then some military hospital jumps in and saves one of the world’s worst people with some sort of wonder treatment not available to regular people!
As if there wasn’t already enough reasons to detest the US military!
Now the question is what they’ll do if Trump gets convicted. Not every trial will be delayed until after the election.
She’s fulfilled one of her goals, which is to accumulate some delegates before the convention. If Trump is somehow unable to accept the nomination, she will be the only other person there with pledged delegates. That will probably matter.
Also recall that while she is suspending her campaign, her name will still appear on the ballot, and people are still free to vote for her. If Trump keels over while there are still primaries going on, she will probably sweep any remaining states. It still might not be enough to win the nomination outright, but should prevent against Don Jr. Trying to inherit it.
If daddy croaks, DJTJ would dye his hair strawberry blonde, put on a fat suit, and claim the delegates are his
I am sure he will try to follow in Daddy’s footsteps. And then find out that no one man can follow in Daddy’s footsteps. It will splinter into more schisms than the Protestant church.
And all of them to a person would act and talk like nothing was amiss. I kind of want to see this timeline, now.
Interesting. Thanks.
Haley’s campaign, while well-intentioned, was based on a false premise, namely that the Republicans are, in some way, actually better than Donald Trump.
I can’t believe anyone thought it would be possible to lure Trump supporters away with a female POC candidate lol (even if she is white-passing)
My only guess has been that she was hoping that he’d actually be blocked from the ballot on a bunch of states or die or something, but even then I don’t really get why she kept at it this long.
Worse: she’s one of those who thinks that the average angry white dude who votes GOP will think that she’s “one of the good ones”. It’s no different than the Blacks for Trump or Log Cabin Republicans.
I hated to say it while she was running, but yeah. Bobby Jindal all over again but in the eyes of the GOP, even worse because she’s a WOC.
She stuck it out hoping that Trump would be disqualified and the votes would go to her instead. But with the SCOTUS recent ruling that states can’t remove Trump from the ballot, it makes sense for her to drop out.
To be clear, the SCOTUS ruling doesn’t just prevent states from removing someone from the ballot. It also prevents federal courts from removing someone convicted of sedition from the ballot. It was a very broad, bad ruling that essentially says the courts will not do anything about Trump
The courts were never going to save us. We have to save ourselves at the ballot box in November.
Everyone should be running on the assumption that Trump will never face consequences for anything that he has done or will do in the future and that he is a serious threat to retaking the presidency despite the Biden rematch.
Finally Trump can use his campaign funds wholly on his legal defense instead of pesky campaigning.
Why campaign when they televise it for you?
For real, NY Times is practically running his campaign for him.
right after the supreme court ruling
She was hanging in there on the hope that trump loses his cases and ends up in jail
I guess the SC finding that an insurrectionist can be on the ballot in bold face defiance of the 14th amendment showed her that the SC will bend over backwards to protect him and that any hope she had of nabbing the nomination on his conviction was gone.
Aye that sucks, wish she bugged him all the way through.
How unsurprising.
“Ceding” She didn’t “cede” anything. She’s “suspending”.
Just like every single other politician who supposedly didn’t cede.
Well the others formally ended things then immediately endorsed and traveled with Trump.
Sry out of the loop. What happened to the Death Santis guy?
He quit a few weeks back.
Someone tried to award him a participation trophy for it

I’m ready to see what happens, let’s do it
