It just crazy to think that the only thing keeping DeSantis from crushing Biden in 2024 is Trump. Orange Man is our only hope.
I donât think itâs a given DeSantis crushes Biden. I think DeSantis is a terrible candidate in his own right - heâs the type of guy voters like in principle, but hate when actually exposed to.
Nothing ever gonna top the Dean Scream
Would make De Santis a million times more interesting if heâd give it a shot tho
Yeah I hate that the âwho would you rather have a beer withâ litmus test is a thing, because itâs fucking stupid, but DeSantis fails this every time.
You really think Desantis crushes Biden? Other than lower taxes, itâs hard to know what Republican priorities are anymore. I donât think the fucking with womenâs rights and all the fascist bigotry against ethnic and lgbtq populations is exactly mainstream even among Republicans. At least I hope Iâm right about that
Am I wrong? I work with quite a few Republican conservatives and none of them want to ban books or take away abortion rights. They are mostly about economic policies and how the poor should pull themselves up by their bootstraps
They might not want to âban booksâ and âtake away abortion rightsâ but theyâre perfectly fine with âparents deciding their kids educationâ and âstates rightsâ
Yeah itâs just semantics and failure to reconcile their beliefs with the words theyâve been told are bad
Also, just, your actions show what you want. Not your statements, lol
And lack of action is action
If something is functionally ____, then itâs _____. There is no secret heart
The people youâre talking about will never say theyâre racists, but they realize all the racists are in their party, and theyâre okay with that.
If thereâs a nazi flag at your rally, youâre at a nazi rally
I guess I go off what I see in my own small world too much. The few Republicans I know fall outside those numbers on abortion. But obviously things are worse than they seem to me or weâd never have such fascists in office
Right and the fact that voters prioritize some things over the rights of others. I honestly believe that my boss has nothing against women, black people, or the lgbtq community. But heâll tell you flat out that taxes and economic policies are what he votes on. I think a lot of people are like that actually. And the problem is some on the right vote against their interests because something like abortion is their most important priority
that was peak trump right there.
dude has definitely lost a few steps since then, go back and watch those debates and compare to his droning delivery now
still, even at like 50% heâs going to run circles around this clown crew in the primary debates
Lots of people treat their personal circumstances as more normal than they actually are.
The problem with your boss and others like him is that there are no deal-breakers for them. Maybe he likes Republican economic policies. Fine. Thatâs his right. But he also accepts all the insane shit that comes with those policies. Thatâs where my patience stops with these folks. He doesnât like banning books, but itâs not a deal-breaker. He doesnât vote based on all the racism, but itâs not a deal-breaker. Heâs not on board with throwing out Democracy and living under dictatorship, but itâs not a deal-breaker. These are exactly the people that need to be called out and shamed.
Lmao âmuh economic policiesâ GMAFB. Every single R administration since and including Reagan has been a disaster for anyone not in the top 5% and thatâs provable, easily.
Donât be so sure about all those âhe doesnât seem racistâ GOP folks!
Spoiler: theyâre really fucking racist
