He is nothing but a scam artist using the MAGAs to make a buck. I think I liked the actual Breitbart guy who loved the "new romantic" music of the 80s and hated bullies. These creeps that occupy his space now are the worst humans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.TaterSalad Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 I never realized Reince Priebus' real first name was Reinhold. His middle name is Richard apparently. I more or less just posted this comment so I could point out that his name his Reinhold Dick Priebus. America got it in the Reinhold alright.

Kevin M had that choice and chose not to avail himself of it lol I guess the good thing is the next 6 sessions begin at 10AM, including this morning at 10AM.

The fire hose of projection is becoming so common, so obvious, and so brazen that even once it registers with people, they’ll eventually be just amused by it rather than horrified, leading to mere resigned acceptance rather than action-inducing outrage. I assume this is an actual strategy used by authoritarian regimes that pattern themselves on Soviet-style tactics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing that concerns me about this is basically what you say: the more against the wall you push someone, the harder they come back at you. The thing that gives me hope about that is that the harder they came back at us, the more people reject the messaging. The key is whether the people have the power to strip these fascists of any ability to remake America in their image. I think we still do as of this moment.

The chaos which ensues won't be good, but we kind of have to get it over with if we are going to continue as a great country. I really doubt they'll have the courage to do so. It may depend on their calculation of whether they believe the norms of behavior by themselves will strong enough to hold the country together and preserve democracy. If they calculate they those behavioral norms cannot do so, they’ll indict. If they believe that the norms are strong enough to defeat the fascists, they probably won’t.

I wonder whether this is a jiu-jitsu move of some sort—pretending that 10am is preferable to prime time to try to convince the American people that is the actual case, when obviously the impact may be muted by running them outside of prime time. After all, come on, she knows the upcoming schedule as well as anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be that as it may in this case, I’m keeping my eye on this possibility. It does seem like it would be a pretty convenient out For people just minutes before showtime.

Tigeraholic1 Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 The best chance to heal our fractured country is if Trump goes to prison. Until their idol is convicted they won't believe anything other than "It was rigged". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
