This was inevitable. For a GOP voter, to vote for anyone but Trump is an admission that the libs were right. More indictments or any other consequence will only heighten the contradiction and make them more committed.

he's also a charisma blackhole. trump on the other hand is a top-tier poster.

He's like the Mayo Pete of the republican party lol
Was "Mayo" a typo? Because if not that is fucking hilarious.
Hexbear is a wonderful place
Tbf I'm really digging both grad and Hexbear. I wasn't out of the lefty closet quite so much when the reddit drama all happened but glad I get to be a part of this chapter for both communities.

This emote is amazing, the reversing loop is 
I can't even tell which direction is forward. It's seamless!
Some other thoughts;
- Every day the idea of DeSantis as a "competent fascist" grows more and more funny.
- I don't think Trump is going to win in the rematch, but it's going to be an "unexpected" nailbiter like 2020. If Biden does kick the bucket and they have Kamala running, then yeah Trump is going to win by 5 points or so even if it's from prison.
He'll lose the popular vote but win the electoral college again, except this time it will be because of some GOP voter fraud fuckery, or a chud judge in like Ohio or Michigan will throw out their state's electoral votes in favor of Trump. Then after he wins there will be a bunch of investigations, another media circus, some low level scapegoats will go to jail, the Democrats will impeach Trump again, and then literally nothing else will happen and he'll continue to be president until he dies of a heart attack. Calling it now.

We probably shouldn't laugh it off it entirely given what his governorship has been like.

If he dies it will not be Kamala running to replace him. It'll be a governor or maybe Sherrod Brown.

forget ronball who is BURGUM
edit: just looked him up he's the most boring opportunist trump wannabe you can imagine
The 0.5% support is people who thought that said Burger.
My kind of president
burgum from burgerland
who is BURGUM
The name on the first door of the grim reaper meme once Hutchinson clenches the nom.
lol libs actually believed he wouldn't become even more popular after the indictment
If they send him to prison he'll be elected president.

meatball on toast
Meatball is neck-and-neck with Harambe and Deez Nuts
Back in November of 2021, I remember predicting in a political discussion that Trump would run again, that Biden would run again short of death, and that Trump would defeat Biden handily. I think the prospect of Trump running under indictment or in jail only would make his base more enthusiastic about voting for him. Everyone frowned, and the only real response was, "I hope not."
I think Biden is going to coast into the election the exact same way that Hilary did: perfectly set up to be the worst candidate, perfectly clueless about Trumps chances.
It sucks, and I hope I am wrong. Also, never in a million years would I ever contemplate voting for either of these two bourgeois crooks. The election is meaningless except that both Trump and Biden will spend the better part of a year trying to outdo each other on: nuclear war with china, imperialism more generally, supporting police brutality and expanding the carceral state, removing the social safety net (being fiscally responsible), anti-communist scapegoating/witchhunting, and inventing new ways to be racist (particularly to immigrants)...
I used to think that Trump would win in 2024, but watching the gop drop the ball on the midterms changed my mind about that. I think Biden has it pretty easily as long as
- neither candidate has a major medical issue. Or a minor one in October.
- republicans don't find a better strategy than trying to rile the hogs up about trans people
- no major economic shift happens between now and the election. Just high inflation with low wage growth isn't enough to tip the needle imo
Obviously any of those are all reasonably likely to happen and who knows where things will end up when they do.

No maddow-loving lib has hoped Trump is made ineligible to run for office harder than Randy Santis
The only thing that could make him ineligible for the presidency is being impeached & convicted by the senate or becoming dead. Otherwise, he can run from prison and is going to see a floor of 45%.
It won’t happen but I’d love to watch the RNC ratfuck trump like the DNC did to Bernie
Not the least because chuds would absolutely positively lose their fucking minds
There would be at least one bombing.

I really want to know who the fuck is out there supporting Chris Christie. Or any of the other loser candidates that everyone knows don't have a chance. Do they not see how much fun the trump people are having?
my hypothesis is that they fool themselves into believing that they're too good and respectable for Trump's antics and then crawl right back to him at election time to stop the gay ultra-communist marxist dictator that they've been told the Democrats have made their candidate
as you say, basically the rightwingers who revel in not having fun and treating politics "seriously". what a horrible existence. every election I'm writing in Lenin and having a blast
Nate Silver is a dork, but its nice to finally have some proper statistics for my sport teams
