For those who don’t know, the WSJ (a Murdoch paper) opinion section is notoriously conservative, so this is pretty significant.
I would post a link to it directly, but none of the paywall bypass options worked for me, so there wouldn’t be much point.
You don’t really appreciate how stupid Trump voters are. If he’s hanging out with a 9/11 conspiracy theorist, they will just start to believe that conspiracy theory.
Trump doesn’t just need the MAGA faithful to win. I have said this so many times on Lemmy that I should find a way to meme it.
Edit: Does this work?
You need to start writing “Trump only needs MAGA paramilitaries to coup again” 50 times on the blackboard.
Votes. Are. Not. How. Trump. Wins.
And you think they’ll be successful when Trump isn’t in charge at the time and held the national guard back? Where would he even gather them? He wouldn’t have permission anywhere inside D.C.
January 6th had the administration in power working with the traitors. He can’t do that this time.
Shut up and let him lose already.
But Murdoch and the neo cons went this dumbass to win.
I’m all for him to surround himself with bigger loonies focusing the weirdo vibe and alienating more people from the Republican vote.
May hisi defeat be crushing and a permanent end to his “political” career. Some prison would top it all off beautifuly.
This is the final push. If he loses it’s over no matter what. He’s not going to run again at 82 if he even lives that long.
We should invest more and expand PBS.
No, he’s not.
He’s got the pulse of his Republican party and his party demands crazier candidates and more extreme rhetoric.
I’m loving Melisandre showing up right now. So appropriate.
Very significant. Their coalition is no different from ours, formed of many different factions that don’t agree on a whole lot. They’re just better at taking marching orders and falling in line behind their candidate.
We do have an opportunity to peel away people that aren’t so fond of overt fascism and add to our election tally though, so, I’m not complaining. Even when its a neocon defecting.
In addition to peeling off people that aren’t so eager for dictatorship, we also have an opportunity to peel off genuinely religious people, who actually try to follow Jesus’ message. While most religious people do it more as a club membership, the genuinely devout can be reminded what their lord and savior actually instructed them to do.
No, he’s not trying to lose.
Trump’s path to “victory” lies in inciting his most rabid brownshirts to coup for him (again), not expanding his appeal to actually win more EC votes than Harris.
Man I really can’t shake the thought that’s shes something not human wearing a skin suit.
Which bothers me mostly because that constantly reminds me of the aliens from They Live that occupy my nightmares with the Time Eaters from Legion.
My nightmares are scary
Don’t look up Kenneth Copeland. He looks like Edgar from Men In Black. After the bugs took over.
SUGAR…IN WATER
All I see is Station
