I hate to be the wet blanket:
https://www.reuters.com/fact-check/maine-governor-janet-mills-did-not-threaten-stop-paying-federal-taxes-2025-02-27/

Social media posts shared a graphic featuring photographs of Trump and Mills with a quote attributed to Mills that read: “If Donald Trump stops federal funding to Maine, we the people of Maine will take out federal taxes from all paychecks and no taxes will be paid to the federal government.”

There are no credible reports of Mills making this statement.

Her Press Secretary, Ben Goodman, said in an email that the statement attributed to Mills is entirely false.

“Further, the action described in the false statement is illegal, per the Internal Revenue Code. The Governor respects the rule of law,” Goodman added.

Yup, exact future times of aircraft takeoffs, drone departures, and expected time of first strike, etc.  Anyone suggesting that this wasn't classified information (or information that should have been classified as such) is a fucking moron.

But Laura Loomer--who not a single person has thought about for 6 months, since Trump summarily booted her from the campaign--is calling everyone but Trump out!

Still would hate bang.

She would have to wear a body bag, and even then, pumped full of boner pills, I would not be able to maintain an erection.

It's a power flex.

You know I'm lying.
I know you know I'm lying.
You swallow it anyway.

We sure this isn't an animatronic being controlled by Stephen Miller?  If she's human, she's putting out real "they're holding my daughter at knife-point" vibes here.  Normally, when she's on a roll, its seems like her heart is really in it - here she doesn't seem to be feeling it at all.

I've been getting texts/messages from people who are totally apolitical about this and they are all like what the actual fuck are these idiots doing?

Like he's trying to politely criticize a President Romney administration or something. I just don't get it. Five alarm fire here guys.

He spits out the typical political answers like he's a bot. "What we need is a candidate who can bring everyone together. Republicans, and democrats." Hey thanks generic politician from 1997. Maybe take a look outside. 

Unless Andy, Newsom, Shapiro, etc. just don't want to get sent to a camp. Which is a definite possibility.

I haven’t listened to it (I’m kind of checked on an Obama-esque interpretation of the world), but whoever the Dems run needs to be capable of pulling in the Biden voters who switched to Trump.  
 

I’m not sure that portraying oneself as a firebrand revolutionary 3 years early is strategically sound.

You really think these voters will vote Democrat in 2028 after switching from Biden to Trump in the last election?

I know it’s somewhat mystifying to anyone posting here and who consumes a lot of political news, but there’s some good 2024 election autopsy work (for example, David Shor on Ezra Klein’s podcast last week) that an astute candidate would be wise to begin with.  

In short, if the Dems are smart, they’ll want a candidate that best positions himself as appealing to voters who switched.  They didn’t switch because they are MAGA, they switched because Biden/Harris* either failed to deliver on improving their lives or couldn’t sell it.  

*To Harris’ credit, I think she knew this but couldn’t escape the Biden undertow and also, like everyone in DC, underestimated Trump‘s appeal to the poorly informed.

I don't even have the words to describe how this makes me feel. Dude was included on the text chain, for some reason, and then removed himself. Then wrote an article just describing what happened. 

"Fuck that guy and his cunt wife! Go get 'em maga soldiers!"

Btw, if the worst were to happen, any doubt that pardons would follow?

I hate to break it to you but the Dems are fucked. It doesn’t matter how bad Trump messes things up, as long as the central messaging is that Dems are responsible for your suffering, Dems won’t win. People are fucking stupid. Dems need to tap into how Trump fucked people and make that into a genuine movement. Dems in Texas can’t even tap into the disgust conservatives have for school vouchers to start a real movement. The division is real and misinformation has changed the way the political game should be played.

Those voters are largely Hispanic men and white women. 

That’s a part of it, but Harris lost Biden voters in pretty much all categories beside highly educated urbanites.

I wouldn’t use the total impotence of the Texas Dems as emblematic of the national party.  That said, there’s a sincere concern that the brand is so bad in places like Tyler or Midland that you’re going to lose even if you turn out any voters remotely willing to vote D.  
 

Anyway, back to hopium, the upside of the Biden-Trump swing voters is they already like a lot of what the Dems stand for, they just trust them to fix anything.
