  • Why do you think that? Do you think Republicans can’t get mad enough at each other’s words and actions that voter turnout for them wont drop or that some may get pissed and actually vote against someone the hate?

    If you go numerically the majority of people who like Musk are Republicans, not Democrats. His views aren’t going to suddenly flip and make more people left of MAGA like him.

    It seems more likely it would fracture MAGA to me. Let them fight each other. We could definitely use the stalling of shit if there is anything left to save in 2029. The 2026 elections and reactions to by the current legislature before 2027 will play a huge role in figuring out if anything will be salvageable.




  • I used to believe the 2 party system made it into teams like sports, but I am thinking it is actually far worse these days. The vast majority of NFL fans for example will shit on their team players who make mistakes or make poor decisions. Drop a pass, keep missing tackles, get a drug charge… fuck that guy, cut him. When people do fantasy football, or pick football pools of which teams will win or gamble online on games, they won’t just pick their players or their team to win if they think they will perform bad and hurt their winnings. People will have bias, but if the Chiefs are playing the Raiders and your a Raiders fan, your still picking the Chiefs to win that game because it will benefit you more at the end of the day.

    Party cuts your medical coverage, increases the age you can collect social security (your money you lended the government essentially), or downright deports one of your friends/family, and people still “pick them” to win.


  • I mean the evangelical security guard last known registered as a Republican, best friend said was Republican, and spoke out openly against pro choice democrats to the extent of making a list and murdering families and injuring others was actively voiced as being left leaning by the media simply because it helps their narrative. I don’t think they are looking to verify anything.

    “Our intelligence reports say they are not making nuclear weapons” -i dont care, we are bombing them. “Our intelligence reports say the facilities weren’t completely obliterated” -i dont care, your intelligence is fake news because it doesn’t fit our narrative.
