Lmfao. Our board Pubs have been had yet again. This is what happens when you’re constantly forced to defend the absurd and the indefensible.

Sad situation.

There are real issues with out medical and food industries, but this clown doesn't seem to understand the real issues.

Trump transition team compiling list of current and former U.S. military officers for possible courts-martial

All of the officers were involved in the chaotic U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, which independent reviews have blamed on both the Trump and Biden administrations.

Correct me if I’m wrong but… didn’t Trump negotiate the withdrawal from Afghanistan!? One of the many messes he left for Biden to clean up…

A silver lining of this second Trump presidency is we are going to get to watch several folks on this board twist themselves into pretzels every day to try to pretend that they haven’t been played like fools.

It's fascinating from a human behavior standpoint. Right-wing media has convinced MAGA (and the MAGA-curious) that applying a double standard is a perfectly reasonable position. Laura Ingraham: Lebron James, Colin Kapernick, Taylor Swift - shut up and dribble/stand/sing and know your place. But when she has Aaron Rogers or Drew Brees on? You're so brave for using your platform to stand up for your beliefs. WTF do you do with that?

It really is fascinating to see the cognitive dissonance. It’s why I think all of these breathless self-flagellation pieces by folks on the left wondering how we should reach Trump voters are, in my opinion, misguided. We don’t need to reach the Trump voters- we *can’t* reach Trump voters. There is no “reaching” people who simply adamantly refused to live and participate in reality. You can’t reach people who believe the stuff that Trump voters believe. We need to figure out how to reach the Democratically-inclined voters who, yet again, sat out an election- that’s where we lost. Trump is going to end up with around 5 million fewer votes than Joe Biden won in 2020, so it’s not like there was some massive influx of new Trump support. We lost because Kamala Harris is going to wind up with somewhere between 5-6 million fewer votes than Biden won- we lost Democratically-inclined voters who did not bother to show up.

“… Sources close to the Trump campaign said the focus on Chinese nationals was part of a larger transition team plan to potentially end two Biden administration immigration programs and make those who have entered the country but not yet received asylum eligible for deportation. Trump has repeatedly suggested that “military-age” men from China have been preparing to form an army against the United States. …”

Mike Johnson’s evangelical upbringing certainly seems to have prepared him well to lie like a dog and plead ignorance to things he knows very well. Model Christian you have leading the House, Pubs.
 
All of the pics with Elon, RFK Jr, etc are making me conclude JD Vance must have had other plans since election night. Hope he isn’t feeling left out.
 
I guess Trump learned his lesson appointing "only the best people" in his 1st term

He's not going to make that mistake again; he's appointing "only the most loyal people" in his 2nd term

I have a hunch that Vance is going to be treated as little more than a gofer and whipping boy for Dear Leader. Trump didn't seem to care for Pence from the beginning, and I doubt that he'll treat Vance much better, no matter how much Vance brown noses him and kisses his ass. Of course if Trump dies in his second term then Vance will become POTUS, which may be what he's hoping for.
