Donald Trump: Classic or Dud?

No, this guy is a Republican. I think he was whistling past the graveyard.

is Wohl a free man at the moment

xp Could be. He's a big supporter of Brian Kemp, who has much the same agenda but is much quieter about it.

wow you hate to see this sort of infighting

Laura Loomer is mentally unstable and a documented liar.

She can not be trusted.

She spent months lying about me and attacking me just because I supported Kevin McCarthy for Speaker and after I had refused to endorse her last election cycle.

She loves the alleged FBI… pic.twitter.com/1D78hU59Z0

If he’s reduced to hiring Laura Loomer I think he might not even win the primary

I am tempted to call Laura Loomer vs Marjorie Taylor Greene a scatfight, which probably means it’s time to log off for the day

Laura Poomer

Scatfight is a great pun.

what a fn freakshow

I thought Milo was her paid intern? not a 'consultant'

Laura Loomer, Marge aghast/
Milo is a pederast/
Ali A worked for YE/
What else do I have to say?

I really am honestly wondering what might come of all this, given Ali's exposure on J6 stuff -- he's already testified to the grand jury, and rumor was that he made claims that are not belied by evidence -- and MTG's own murky role. Anybody ends up feels betrayed one way or another may decide to do something interesting about it.

there will be blood

Milo was her muse.

I’m grateful I am not terminally online enough to understand that beef.

Bucee's is a meme in Texas but I absolutely DNGI - it's a gas station, an XXXXL QuikTrip.

My 12 year old and his friends have made kind of a meme about it--I think it's the name + the logo.

Aw

NEW: After our reporting, a high-ranking Trump official says Loomer is not getting hired. ⁦@jonathanvswan⁩ me https://t.co/x8Fl2rVLI0

— Maggie Haberman (@maggieNYT) April 7, 2023

Of course he'll hire her tomorrow anyway

and then not pay her invoices

she'll sign an NDA, work for three months, and then shop around a tell-all

And if he doesn't he'll just have more grist for his endless "dying NYT gets everything wrong" rants. xp

Was just in New York where I met up with an old friend who it turns out currently has a job in the AG office. He's working on a separate Trump thing (related to the tax returns) and told me absolutely everybody was blindsided (but not in a bad way) by the apparently totally secret indictment, which in turn has inspired them to further drill down on their own stuff. Makes me wonder how many other investigations are out there but totally locked down, away from public view or knowledge.

and building/feeding on each other

I’m fine with this jerk being on trial or in jail for the rest of his life, so go for it, lawyers!

lmao @ the Buc-ee's thing, finally DeSantis is tapping into Real Florida

Oh for the days when it was all dirt roads and orange groves

'what started a little fruit stand and filling station..'

Makes me wonder how many other investigations are out there but totally locked down, away from public view or knowledge.

I mean, give the federal grand juries in particular some credit, both the J6 and documents juries are apparently pretty well locked down. And only the Georgia foreperson said anything, and that was after they were all done.

For sure. Like, I know it was a running joke here, but I totally forgot about his tax returns.

going back several days...

I‘ve settled on the opinion that that election was close but not nearly as close as cable news wanted us to think it was

― castanuts (DJP), Wednesday, April 5, 2023

The electoral college outcome didn't reflect it but it was pretty damn close, closer even than the 2016 election. Out of the 100s of millions of votes cast (10 million more for Trump than even in 2016!) it was decided by a few thousand votes in Wisconsin, Georgia and Arizona

I think you have it backward. 2016 was closer than 2020.

2020 was closer in the sense that Trump would have only needed to flip around 40,000 votes in 3 states to win. Hilary would have needed to flip around 70,000 votes in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Michigan.

yes, it was closer. regardless of the fact that Biden got millions more votes than Trump, those few thousand votes in three swing states were what mattered

it's a really great system

its weird how for years theres been a realistic movement to do away with the electoral college thats already part way to making it happen and you never hear a national dem mention it despite losing the presidency twice recently when winning the national vote, almost like they dont care about winning

its exactly the kind of issue they freak out about repealing because they think going against some weird shit everyone learned in 5th grade would turn everyone off

bunch of civics class ass professional losers

Imagine the alternate reality where Bush won the popular vote and lost the EC:

Clarence Thomas deserves a full Senate investigation and possible impeachment, but Congress likely doesn't have the appetite for that.

As one Democratic House member tells me via text, "Public trust in SC is already bad. A big circus would destroy it completely."

Tell me again exactly how this SCOTUS has earned the public's trust?

whatever happened to Omarosa?
