Gotta give credit for Trump team’s ability to conure up fake meaningless publicity stunt headlines that the media will run with.
Nobel Committee never reveals nominees, and it looks like nominations just opened and run into September. And essentially any lawmaker around the world can throw in a nom, and next spring the committee creates a short list, which obviously will not include Donald.
So the Trump campaign probably shipped some cash to this nazi to have him “nominate” him, but more importantly, run to the press about it.
Well. I assume there might be more emotionally sensitive reasons he wasn’t discussing her. But I could be wrong. Her loss anyway. More cuse rants for us.
Evangelicals are a tiny group, they just all vote as a bloc and they’re very easy to fool, so it’s easy for Rs to pander to them.
Trump’s brand is actually pretty secular compared to guys like W Bush or Romney. Right wing butters are more likely to get into Qanon conspiracy stuff than religion.
President Trump’s head popped up during his top-secret intelligence briefing in the Oval Office on Jan. 28 when the discussion turned to the novel coronavirus outbreak in China. “This will be the biggest national security threat you face in your presidency,” national security adviser Robert O’Brien told Trump, according to a new book by Washington Post associate editor Bob Woodward. “This is going to be the roughest thing you face.” Matthew Pottinger, the deputy national security adviser, agreed. He told the president that after reaching contacts in China, it was evident that the world faced a health emergency on par with the flu pandemic of 1918, which killed an estimated 50 million people worldwide. Ten days later, Trump called Woodward and revealed that he thought the situation was far more dire than what he had been saying publicly.
A large percentage of voters in the US vote because they want to overturn Roe v Wade. The GOP exploits this and they fall for it hook, line, and sinker. The average religious person thinks women are baby producing factories and that getting an abortion is the work of Satan.
This Woodward story/book is exactly what the doctor ordered, and perfect timing. He’s got receipts, there goes another week or so with Trump completely on the defensive as absentee ballots start rolling in.
It is motivated enough that they will 100% vote 3rd party if Republicans don’t pander to them. Republicans are already skimming by on the electoral college and voter suppression. They can’t afford to loose religious nutters.
Edit: This is only a small fraction of republican voters, imo. 10% at most, the rest of the party opposes abortion to go along with the crowd.
he said the average religious person thinks this, that group is much larger than what you would call “evanglical” imo.
I have an example from facebook a couple weeks ago, lady told me that she would never vote democrat because of abortion, because allowing abortion makes people think that life is not as precious or something like that and that leads to not caring about other lives being important either and that she could see this in the kids these days yada yada yada,
I explained to her that abortion would never be illegal in this country regardless of roe v wade, at worst it would only be red states banning it and blue keeping it and people would just go to blue states to have it done or get them back alley style, none of it mattered to her.
Its free votes for GOP because they will always vote GOP for something that can’t ever happen, meaning abortions banned nationwide, outside of Handmaids tale scenario obv.
Also someone mentioned how there are less abortions with dems cuz you know sex education, birth control but nah they dont care about that either
