But since our handlers keep our cage fairly clean, we are fairly well fed, and we are placated with all manner of "entertainment," we have been largely castrated and tranquilized.
This sounds like preparation for "Why We Couldn't Fix What We Complained About" should GOP take 2024 and be the responsible ones for the term.

Trump says he was elected president in 2020, so he can't run again in 2024 according to his proclamation.

Thankfully.

The election was fraudulent and thats why Biden received an inconceivable 81M votes.
Is that the liberal tears you promised for the Nov 2020 election? Bwahahaha. Instead we got salty MAGA tears of denial.

I won't vote for Trump in the primary if he decides to run, but I'd vote for him in the general against the Dems they'd likely trot out.

If a fiscal conservative Dem ran, they'd have my attention, but otherwise, I'd hold my nose & vote for Trump again.

I think Trump's Vegas odds increased because Biden & Harris are abject failures & unelectable in 2024, and somebody has to be President.

I prefer DeSantis, or Paul myself, but Paul could only win after the financial collapse, because that is when everybody would finally figure out that he's been right all along on big gov't expansion & over-spending.

At this point, any "fiscally conservative" Dem would just be another trojan horse for the Woke Left. Remember when Biden was supposedly a "moderate"?


I resolutely believe that even considering voting Democrat at this point (at least at the national level), is just suicide.



After we decimate them in November, all that will be left of the Left (nyuk) shall be deep blue districts, with mentally deficient and coddled children akin to AOC and the Squad. And the '24 and '26 electoral maps look remarkably worse for them than this year.


Mainstream Dems (what's left of them) - and the Party as a whole - are about to be consigned to the political wilderness for a long time to come.



After the riots, the lockdowns, and the forced vaccinations; that barely any "moderate" Dem dared speak out against - voting Democrat is an act of self degradation and sheer foolishness.


Yep, the American people have had it with the "Democrats".



And ya gotta admit, the Dems sure did earn it.

Yeah, something like "fixing" the Titanic after getting opened up like a tin can by an iceberg. Or "fixing" the Hindenburg after the hydrogen ignited. I'm not going to say it absolutely cannot happen, but it's going to take a miracle and a hobbling of half the American populace (your half).

My problem with Trump is that he brings too much baggage with him. His policies are mostly fine, but his demeanor gets in the way, and we'd be in for another leftist media mental breakdown.
Even if DeSantis was the president, he'd get the same pushback. The left are evil and will make it tough for any repub president so I don't think personality has much to do with it. In fact DeSantis can be just as tough as Trump. He calls out the left all the time and doesn't put up with their crap. So any repub will bring g baggage. We need someone that loves the country and can get in there and help repair what is left of our country when we clean house.

So...there's no plan.

Neither is evil and both smear. Let's not pretend here.

Was there a plan when the Hindenburg was crashing down in flames? (I'm sure some of the poor wretches were wishing they weren't there, but other than that...)

To be sure, I have a plan to straighten the country out. But it's wholly unworkable and very unsavory.
