Well a recent survey showed that Trumpers believe the orange king more than their family or religious leaders so yea, loyalty to the tribe overrides their religious values. In other words… cult.
i will say, I know several evangelical pastors, who I became friends with (and they knew i was a"papist" and had no problem with it- only occasionally heard about "the war of northern aggression"). They're not all nuts and some are very good folks. But I always avoided talking politics. Just didn't want to ruin things. but I find it hard to believe we are still at this point. time crawls on...5 more days, Go Bills! Rodgers is a douche.

Why is it always these Trumpers, often self proclaimed Christian conservatives, who threaten violence or civil war if they don’t get their orange king back on the throne? Huckabee is a Southern Baptist pastor. He should be ashamed of himself for suggesting bullets will be used to decide elections. Im pretty sure that’s not what Jesus would say.
Their Christianity is a ruse. Tough but true. They're more tribal than just about anyone.

Well Mike, It's a little late for candor and honesty but better late than never...and I'm not sure "performative outrage" is going to sway the base.
https://www.axios.com/2023/09/06/pence-trump-populism-speech
"A leading candidate last year called for 'the termination of all rules, regulations, and articles, even those found in the Constitution' … while his imitators have a demonstrated willingness to brandish government power to silence critics and impose their will on opponents."
Pence argues that the Republican Party can choose populism or conservatism, but not both, because conservatives embrace checks and balances while populists scorn them.
He also warns that the GOP risks standing for little more than "personal grievances and performative outrage."

Trumpers trying to overthrow American democracy in Wisconsin.
There's no need for separation of powers anymore.
Let's skip some steps and head straight to autocracy.
I don't mind Trumpers wanting to live under a dictorship as long as they do it somewhere else.
It doesn't sound like it. It is.
Trump is easily the biggest mobster in American history.The Wisconsin election of this judge was very encouraging for 2024. It’s one of the most important swing states, the R’s spent big on her opponent and she won by a wide margin. Don’t see how they can overturn the election but not surprised they’re trying

Was there a violation of a court order to preserve evidence in effect?
Does it matter? Do you think they might ask the witness what was on the deleted tape? Do you think deleting the tape was a good thing? Why defend this scumbag?

A lot of D's have soured on Biden. The Independent voters definitely have. Don't forget Mrs. Giggles is really unpopular including with the D's. No way Biden survives a 2nd term, and nobody wants her taking over. I am not even so sure he will make it to the 2024 election.
I agree. He’s too old and truly hope he bows out or is forced out. And I think that’s somewhat likely. But if he stays in and trump is his opponent, I don’t see rational people voting for a 4x indicted crook. Especially after his Georgia trial and the evidence against him is televised. I think there are still more rational people than idiots in the country. If not, we’re doomed

I don't see how the right can win really, you guys know how to rig the process so well.
No. The problem is that there aren’t enough MAGAs for the R’s to win. Way too many yet not enough…

Keep an eye on who is being represented by a lawyer paid for by Trump and who isn't.
Even when attorneys are paid by third parties, they are supposed to represent their clients. Here, it seems like they may be working in Trump's best interest to the potential detriment of their ostensible client.
The minute Tavares talked to the public defender, he came clean because it was in his best interest to do so.
Sounds like mobster stuff to me

The Nation’s Fiscal Crisis Just Got Real
Issues & Insights, by The Editorial Board
Over the weekend, the Washington Post let it slip that all is not well in Bidenomicsville.
The deficit, it reports, could end up hitting $2 trillion when the current fiscal year ends in three weeks, which it describes as an “unexpected deficit surge.” In other words, the deficit will nearly double this year, calling the lie on one of President Joe Biden’s favorite boasts about how he cut the deficit more than any president in history.
But while this apparently comes as a shock to the Post, as well as other liberal news sites that picked up on the Post report, anyone paying attention knew this was happening.

is that only when Alabama does gerrymandering?
same argument when lefties in blue states do it?
The SCOTUS decision is federal and thus a national ruling. Blue states will likely abide. Not so much for red states.

More good news!
Leave the comedy to the experts. You are better served focusing on math.
What? Almost everyone loves Taylor! You're an outlier...but I guess that video could more accurately be described as satire...good, no?
re employment data, even with overestimates and revisions, Biden's job creation has been impressive:

Ah, so you have nothing. You're just talking in generalities because it doesn't require you to provide any evidence to back your claim. Got it.
He never has anything. Waste of space.

Gerrymandering is bad.
its just interesting how some only see it in some places.
while ignoring/championing it in others.
I don't agree with it anywhere. But with Alabama thumbing its nose at SCOTUS, their ruling is not having the desired effect. At least for now. As Frank said, this could easily be ruled contempt. Once again, "law and order" red states ignoring the law...

Well screw them then ! But any one of those people can just jump in their cars or if they don't have one 1 time every 4 years call a friend and car pool to the voting booth and get it done racist be dammed !!
After all it is 2023 and if you or any one is trying to use the excuse that they can't get there to vote they aren't trying because they can take 4 years to plan & if you can't plan 1 trip every 4 years you don't deserve the privilege .
The SCOTUS case isn't about the act of voting (although that's another worthy topic - a national holiday on election day is a fine idea imo.). It's about gerrymandering so that there are no districts with a black majority. This is done by cutting and pasting the geography to meet their goals. Look at the district maps for Alabama and you'll see.

Held in abeyance until the next time you feign outrage over other’s conduct that you yourself practice. Should be any time now.
See I can actually learn some cool stuff on the board
a·bey·ance
/əˈbāəns/
noun
a state of temporary disuse or suspension
very nice word! Is that used in banking frequently?
