Politics-What's on your mind?

[Orema]

All three of the top GOP candidates (Trump, DeSantis, Haley) have created divisions on race, history, and/or gender. They intentionally distort the facts. I expect this of at least one candidate from either party, but not from everyone on the top (of either major party). Haven’t seen this before now.

Trump quoting Hitler is Stephen Miller whispering in his ear. Miller is a smart cookie. He helps pulls the strings behind the curtain but is careful to never take credit. Something else, is Holocaust denial far behind? After all, it’s what the morons they bow down to want to hear.

I still think Haley is aiming for the VP spot. She knows the GOP won’t nominate her as POTUS in 2024, but she’ll have a good chance at POTUS in 2028 if she can just get on the ticket as VP in 2024.

And ain’t it just the height of irony that Republicans (who represent management!) have somehow convinced working people that laws and policies that benefit the richest are somehow designed to bestow happiness and prosperity on the rest of us?

I’ll vote for the Democratic nominee and whomever I like in the Primary, but I’m checking out. I no longer watch political news stories and may stop reading them for a while.

Here’s hoping 2024 isn’t as bad as I expect it will be.

I still remember how worn out I was by all the politicking the last time the election rolled around. I think checking out from the news might be the way to go this time. I can't think of anything that would change me voting Democratic, and I don't need to suffer through all the agita that comes along with the election.

…. T——p presidency. They are trying to Trump-proof their governments and policies due to how so many voters in our country are sucked down the rabbit hole of the cult leadership offered by a dangerous person who leads the GOP.

It’s distressing how people think this person is going to make our country better. How is it better to cheat and defraud for personal gain? How is this person better when just uttering that name will be the biggest longest lasting mistake that cannot be undone once they get their way by voting for a criminal with a long criminal history in cheating others and profiting from the suffering they inflict on others???

Here is the CNN article that speaks about European countries doing what they can before the cult of T——p destroys what is left of our country and our country’s ally’s across the globe.

I had an interesting set of thoughts come to me concerning the voters in Iowa: could it be that all the aging Phelps, Tammy Faye & Jimmy Baker, and Pat Robertson 700 haters club members migrated to Iowa and retire there as gasping Republican control freaks to solidify their terrible racist, hate filled “religious” agenda and make sure nobody disobeys their generational toxic hold on Americans who will never be like them in a heart beat???

I am voting for President Joe Biden or any democrat who will kick butt and stop the farcical power grab of the toxic party ruining America’s reputation for democratic norms that have anchored our country for more than 200 years. I believe we have what it takes as voters to make a difference and show the world that D.T.’s brand of Amerikan fascism and authoritarian style of leadership is NOT what voters want.

Please please help stop the GOP from destroying our country.

Vote Blue.

Ron DeSatan dropped out of GOP race! Don't know what this will do for Nicky Haley and T---p, and I don't really care. But the small threat of Ron DeSatan ending up as president is finally off my mind. The bad news - DeSatan will still probably be governor of Florida until 2028.

Without a vote in Florida? Isn't that like, skipping over the voters?
