The GTP Unofficial 2020 US Elections Thread

[Scaff]

They can’t be serious... they’re not serious are they? Do people actually believe this tripe?

10 seconds into Biden’s presidency I had people on my news feed complaining about him putting $1 Billion dollars toward climate change. But now that was actually Trump? Seriously?

Anyone who follows this QuackOn garbage needs to hit CTRL + ALT + DELETE and hard reset their brain.

I've also seen some complaining that Biden is already ramping up troop numbers in Syria, which in reality was a routine, monthly supply run.

If it means they don't have to admit that they were ever wrong and rational people will get angry about them parroting it over and over, then yes they will believe it without a second's hesitation.

They can't accept reality. It isn't just a passive thing. They are actively rejecting reality. (By the way, if you're on Twitter, @CopingMAGA is a great account to follow.)

Where is Crunch when you need him? Only Crunch has the detailed insider knowledge that could help us make sense of all this.

His Q secret decoder ring hasn't revealed that information yet.

To his credit, I don't think Chrunch believed in the Q stuff, just that he thinks the election was "stolen".

Stuff like this is a good way to get banned by Instagram.

Sweet Jesus, the man is actually going to act like he's still in some sort of power.

 

[UKMikey]

To be honest Chrunch never struck me as a qultist due to the lack of Biden-is-a-pedophile comments in his posts. His being one of those regular level Trump apologists seems closer to the mark to me. They seem plenty cognitively dissonant enough to me without adding the next level insanity of Pizzagate into the mix.

Doesn't seem any different than what Bush and Obama have (or any former president for that matter as it's a part of the benefits package).

I simply do not trust the man to not use it to continue his divisiveness.

Trump is expected to reside in Florida, and he is surrounded by a handful of loyal aides. Allies have said Trump is eyeing supporting primary challenges against Republicans who he feels wronged him following his election defeat, such as Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp (R) and House Republican Conference Chairwoman Liz Cheney (Wyo.), who was one of 10 Republicans to vote to impeach Trump earlier this month.

I'm sure he will. That doesn't change the fact it's something that comes with the job, not necessarily a part of some ego trip.

It reminds me of those stupid gift shop stories you see pop up every few months that lazy people mistakenly thought was from the government.

Speaking of said website...

It's almost like they're a for-profit company using a clickbait name for their business.

Is this still where we're posting about the insurrection? Because this lady...

After U.S. Magistrate Judge Martin C. Carlson ordered her release less than a week ago, prosecutors claim, Williams “instructed” alleged co-conspirators to do the same. The government is now requesting that the conditions of Williams’s release be altered to cut off her internet access and allow investigators to monitor her compliance with that prohibition.

The revelations might keep Williams on a shorter leash awaiting trial since her transfer from the Middle District of Pennsylvania to the District of D.C., where U.S. Magistrate Judge Zia Faruqui is presiding over her case.

Commenting on the “extremely troubling” allegations, Faruqui wondered why the government is not seeking Williams’s detention again. That question went unanswered before the hearing abruptly ended because of a defense counsel’s scheduling conflict.

In an alarming court documents, the FBI quoted a witness alleging that Williams intended to send the computer device to a friend in Russia, who then planned to sell the device to SVR, Russia’s foreign intelligence service.

“According to W-1, the transfer of the computer device to Russia fell through for unknown reasons and Williams still has the computer device or destroyed it,” the FBI wrote in an affidavit, referring to “Witness-1.”

...is a traitor to America and should be dealt with as such.

Fortunately, the Biden administration has verbalized complaints about Navalny's incarceration which is clearly backfiring on Russia as their citizens are now the ones protesting government overreach. I recognize that Russian citizens shouldn't suffer more than they already do, but something needs to be done about Russia. Something forceful. I'm not sure what. I think perhaps we can manage China's economic threat since their military threat isn't directed at us, but Russia has the US squarely in its crosshairs and that's just unacceptable.

There is a significant difference I can see. Bush's is "Office of George W. Bush." Obama's is "Office of Barack and Michelle Obama." Oddly enough for someone whose brand is their name, he's not using it. He's calling it the "Office of the Former President", ignoring the fact he is only 1 of 45 former Presidents, and he is only 1 of 5 still alive.

 

[TexRex]

I suspect that might not matter to some Republicans if they were losing the state. It looks like they'll simultaneously support contradictory positions so long as it benefits the red vote.

"Stop the count! Count the votes!"

Count von Count: "Hundreds. Hundreds of braying idiots. Ah ah ah."

...Or it's just a generic press release that people are reading too much into.

It's annoying enough seeing Republicans make every little thing a Liberal does into some huge deal, does everyone else really need to lower themselves to that level?

The more we talk about it, the more he exists in people's mind as a story. That's the problem.

The oft-repeated punchline should be: "who were we talking about again?" (shorted disingenuously to "who?") and do not listen for the answer. If there's anything we should have learned in 2015, it's to take the fuel out of the fire; the high road of "we need to shine a magnifier on it in the blazing sunshine" tactic was a terrible idea in disguise. On one hand, you can't ignore everything about how terrible things can be about an individual, but so many people and press literally did the campaigning/PR for him.

Media feeds on the sum of the absolute values of all positive and negative attention towards a subject.

New rule: all votes submitted in crayon are immediately thrown out.

If we still get the wrong result after that can we make another rule?

Trumpers are also blowing it up into a big thing because trolling the winners is the only joy they have left in life.

I wonder whether this is a misuse of your Great Seal? Perhaps he should use this one instead to avoid further prosecution.

Not really a Trump story but I didn't want to dirty up the America thrad with this.

Kellyanne Conway took her 16 year old daughter Claudia's phone without permission and leaked a topless photo of her to the internet after Claudia posted a video of her mother speaking to cops who visited their home following her child abuse allegations.

If there's anything to this story then the elder Conway is doubling down on her child abuse with more child abuse.

[McLaren]

It's not even a, "Oops, I was on my daughter's phone and accidentally uploaded an explicit photo from it". But, from the article, she actually took a picture of Claudia's phone with the explicit image present.

Nobody just does that without some sort of intent. Not sure if uploading a minor by accident also excuses one from potential consequences; you'd still have to answer for why you took a picture of a phone with a minor present on it.

If it's true, she's going to jail.

That's optimistic.

Another murderous seditionist thug has implicated his Fanta-coloured Führer in the attack on the Capitol building but hey, at least he said sorry this time. That's gotta be worth a few years off his sentence, riiightt?

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/...hreat-miller-capitol-riot-trump-b1792566.html

Meanwhile it looks like Mitch and all those other RINOs who dare call out Trump for the disastrous election results never liked him in the first place, provided Nikki Haley isn't a two-faced, scheming, ambitious liar... but what are the odds of that?

Are you not amused by the source? That "news outlet" is literally named after rednecks yelling at each other across the street. Or rather named after rednecks yelling at other across the creek bed, whichever mode of transportation they prefer that day.

[EDIT] I'd be more worried about the Tennessee Star.

The Tennessee Holler is a lot more left of center, by the way.

"Holler" can mean something you're upset about, but it's also Appalachian-area slang for "hollow", a narrow place between two hills (like a ravine).

Correct. Loretta Lynn was born in Butcher Hollow, KY but it's always pronounced "Butcher Holler" by Loretta herself and others native to that area.

OK. But more interestingly, that led me to today's India Republic Day Parade. Now THAT'S a parade!
