If 6 weeks ago, you had predicted that Loomer specifically would've been joining the inner circle of Trump's campaign, helping prepare for the debate, and joining him at events like 9 11 memorials, you'd have been dismissed as a @Helobious sock.

I mean...I think her presence/role is squarely within the Brisket Rules of 1) there is no bottom, and 2) it only gets worse.  She is the living embodiment of those rules, actually.

They're definitely grifters, but it speaks to a larger issue that we're seeing in our society in general. 

There's an epidemic with people that will not will accept or absorb any genuine criticism. They choose to ignore accountability for saying or doing stupid shit and instead gravitate to a group that will fully embrace them. This is how people end up in MAGA as well.

The number of people that hold themselves accountable for their actions is dwindling fast. And it's a fucking disaster. 

They're always victims.  You know, the real pull yourself up by your bootstrap types.

How many male politicians/execs/faculty have their arm around another woman's, a failed politician but publicity hound, waist today, in the age of accusations?  She has everything to gain and he has everything to lose.  She loses nothing--she's at ground level.  But here it is, for all to see, an idiot and a soon to be publicity wealthy idiot.

Assuming these 6 stay on board, MAGA reps would be unable to block the certification of the election given the current numbers in the House of Representatives.

 

Quote

More than 30 House members, including a half-dozen Republicans, have signed a bipartisan pledge to uphold the results of the 2024 election amid an increased focus on Congress' role in certifying the tally next January.

A pair of House centrists, Reps. Josh Gottheimer (D-N.J.) and Don Bacon (R-Neb.), have worked for months to organize what they’re calling a “unity commitment” — an agreement to “safeguard the fairness and integrity” of this fall’s presidential election.

 

Quote

Five other Republicans also signed on: Reps. Brian Fitzpatrick (R-Pa.), Mike Lawler (R-N.Y.), Lori Chavez-DeRemer (R-Ore.), Nick LaLota (R-N.Y.) and Anthony D’Esposito (R-N.Y.).

None of the six Republicans who signed the pledge voted against certifying the 2020 election on Jan. 6, 2021. (Several of them were not yet in office.) A total of 139 House Republicans did vote against certifying President Joe Biden's victory.

 

Quote

In addition to vowing to certify the election and attend the inauguration ceremony in person, the lawmakers will also speak up as “a voice for calm and reconciliation" and speak out "against those who endorse or engage in violence.”

“In America we respect election results especially once the courts and appeals work through the process,” Bacon said in a statement. “We fight hard to win during campaigns and then respect the results when the votes are counted.”

 

Spoiler

In his third presidential run, former President Donald Trump has continued to insist that he did not lose the election in 2020 — stoking fear that he may again encourage his supporters to block certification of the election next January if he loses for a second time. Trump and his allies have also continued to raise unfounded alarms about voter fraud that could impact the election.

But some Republicans have also pointed to comments from Democrats such as Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.), who has questioned whether Trump would be legally qualified even if he did win the election under the Constitution. Raskin has pointed to the Fourteenth Amendment, which bars people who have “engaged in insurrection or rebellion” from holding office — though the Supreme Court ruled earlier this year that enforcing that clause lies solely with Congress.

They'll bail.  All GQP are MAGA.  All. Of. Them. If they are in office still as GQP, they will come home to do what MAGAs do.

Never trust a Republican to do the right thing.  On anything.  Ever.  After what has happened to that party, after all that they know now, there is no painting it any other way: if you are still a Republican, you cannot be trusted.

My favorite Hungary story is from 25 years ago, I was working with a much senior attorney.  He was old, but incredibly smart and well-read.  And for some reason, he went OFF on Hungary.  His closing, most-denigrating remark?  "For pete's sake....THEY DON'T EVEN SPEAK AN INDO-EUROPEAN LANGUAGE!!!"

That just always struck me as a damned funny reason to shit on a country.

But in Hungary's case, it seems it's deserved.

Sounds like he was a cunning linguist.

My 6am thoughts: JD Vance was the plan for President by the #HeritageFoundation all along. It was NEVER about Trump. Please realize that the Republicans are good at one thing — besides greed, racism and hatred — and it’s the long game for ultimate power. I couldn’t figure out WHY that weirdo was SO cocky with his hatefulness. It’s because he KNOWS HE will be President a month after a Trump inauguration. 25th Amendment, baby. Also: The corrupt and bought Supreme Court created immunity for VANCE, not Trump. What Vance and Thiel and the Heritage Foundation have planned will need it. All Trump needs is a broad pardon that will keep him out of jail. Staying out of jail was his only goal in running. He’s already got the secrets to sell to get more money. Y’all better realize what’s actually happening and get everybody you know to vote #HarrisWalz! You think a Trump Presidency is bad. Take 40 years off him and add more malevolent evil. Vance also isn’t dumb. He’s arrogant, unscrupulous & charm-free. But he’s not dumb. Which makes Vance WAY more dangerous. His whole life he’s shape-shifted to fit the agenda & his goals. His look, his name…even his preferences & proclivities are mutable. HE’s the snake. THINK, people. Make sure you and your friends are registered and vote like your life and the freedoms you love depend on it. They DO ! Let’s go!

Trump being asked about Loomer got very close to saying "I don't know Laura Loomer". 

He also said that all the polls had him winning the debate and that he was up six in the first election poll released post-debate. I listened for probably 15 seconds and got that amount of absolute horseshit. 

I'd love for a Trump/Loomer affair to break a couple weeks before the election.  Not that I think that's going to be the final straw for the Trump worshipers, or cause of of the "undecideds" to vote for Trump.  But I'd love for there to be more and more evidence of his complete piece of shit human existence in his final days, and if this race still might at all be close in October, maybe it'll cause enough Trumpers to stay home with the thought of "oh well, he can't win now with this latest edition of fake news."
