Nah, fuck all that. Been passing out olive branches for close to a decade. I'm done. Burn with the movement.

Yeah, this.  In past two weeks, he’s played golf, posted on Truth a lot, held a singular bizarre press conference, and then flew around montAna in circles to avoid paying for fuel which reminds me of when my mom got older and would spend like $4 in fuel to get two counties over to save 3cents/gallon.

The GOP will never get past MAGA unless Trump is dead. If they couldn’t drop him after J6 AND 34 FELONIES, they aren’t dropping him after 2 losses in a row. 

The Trump presidency will be like the confederacy.  It only lasted four years but it'll take some people generations to get over.

My guess is this is not happening at Trump “rallies”

Campaign reports surge of volunteer sign-ups

People attending Friday’s Harris-Walz campaign rally didn’t just show up, cheer and go home.

The campaign reported that 3,000 volunteer shifts were filled by attendees as they left Desert Diamond Arena, a sign of momentum, said Jacques Petit, communications director for the Harris campaign in Arizona.

“This rate of sign-ups is higher than we’d expect for attendees at a rally, as opposed to a canvass kickoff or a local organizing event,” Petit said.

More than 20,000 volunteers have signed up in Arizona since July 21, when President Biden announced he would not seek reelection, Petit said.

Yeah after 10 years of their bullshit and attempts to end democracy, they can eat a dick. 

The question is can the currently constructed modern Republican Party hold itself together if it loses 2 elections in a row after a miracle win 8 years ago and 4 potential losses in the last 16 years to the first black president, grandpa Biden and the first female president who is also black 
If the GOP apparatus decides to dump Trumpism, Trump will walk away and take his MAGA followers with him. What does the 2025 Republican Party look like? Just more Trumpism or do what’s left of the sane ones grab control?
 

What will happen is they will go fetal and lick their wounds and wait until Democrats ultimately fuck this up. Everybody is in line right now and I’m here for it. But…..

Dem House most likely, toss up senate. Senate depends on Montana/Ohio or flipping TX or FL to make up for one or both

I was a MAGA activist and pundit, and left MAGA, in 2022, after 7 years in it. If The Atlantic might consider a personal piece from me, Peter, let me know, please. What MAGA Americans need to see is others like them—who support(ed) Trump and MAGA for what they thought were the right reasons—who made the decision to leave MAGA; and, the reasons why they left. MAGA Americans remain in MAGA because it is a community. For those with friends and family in MAGA, you’ve probably made appeals based on facts, citing reputable sources, etc., and you’ve found they have not had any success. MAGA Americans will not leave unless they have a new community to go to; our Leaving MAGA org./team is actively building such a community. Soon, we will publish testimonials of some who, like me, were MAGA true believers, and left. For those in the thrall of MAGA, facts, policies, etc., will, almost never, have any successful effect. If you want to re-engage your friends and family who are in MAGA, make a sincere effort to try and understand their perspectives, which are likely shaped by many of the everyday concerns and worries most Americans share. If you’ve already done this, do it again—this time, however, ask if they’d be willing to hear my story, and introduce them to our Leaving MAGA org. You will be pleasantly surprised by how many are willing to take a look at my own journey in, and out of, MAGA, as well as our org. At the upcoming Democratic convention, a brief video of my story will air. I am also co-chairing the Republicans for Harris FL team, because I need to make amends for my past decisions and rhetoric—all of which I take complete responsibility for. Yes, MAGA will remain, but we must mercy-kill the GOP, electorally, and begin to move on from Trump—someone I helped get elected. A national reconciliation is possible. Thank you.

What a shock, it reads exactly like the steps of having to deprogram oneself from a fucking cult.

Close AF. Honestly it will take a massive massive beating of Trump to drag the senate blue downballot this time around. The map is not favorable.

Will Politico publish them?  I assume Hillary's [the DNC's] went to Wikileaks because most news agencies wouldn't publish them, unless someone else does.  

My recollection is this: Russia hacked, strategically altered, and then gave the documents to Wikileaks, which posted them on the internet. Various media outlets accessed the documents and then spent weeks reporting on them even though they were unable to verify their authenticity.

That's a very generous perspective. The map sucks.  Tester is a clear underdog, and in the contested GOP seats it's tough to see a flip. God how can the Texas Democratic Party be so bad at their jobs. The Allred campaign is pathetic.

Senate's definitely a GOP lean. Would not be shocked to see Dems eek out a 50-50 senate if Kamala wins, either through Tester holding on or picking off Rick Scott. Allred is unfortunately dead in the water.

I love the note “exact route will be shared day of event”.  I live in Taylor, it took me all of 5 seconds to figure out exactly which roads they’re gonna take…

fucking lulz "Trump to deliver remarks on the economy." I'm sure economists from all over the globe will be glued to to the proceedings. Trump handing out macroeconomic gems like Steph Curry shooting threes.

Yep. Fuck that. The only thing we should give them is all the hemlock they can drink. I’m fucking done with those treasonous pieces of shit. They can do the world a favor and drink hemlock. That’s what they can do to help. I don’t believe a single one who says they’re “converting.” Bullshit.

Being under 50 doesn’t mean Harris leading. Could be RFK taking votes and he’s only winning a plurality or maybe too many undecided voters. She needs to maintain focus - MI, PA, WI, NV, AZ, GA, NC

But it is a flashing bright red light that you will get routed in WI/MI/PA

Trump has family members and sycophants running the RNC.  It is going to be ugly as hell after this election, because me thinks the funds will dry up from the major donors.
