No Policy No Content, No Morals, No Candidate for President in GOP ?

This week, the news dripped out, that there is no real GOP candidate for president.
Just a clown car full of formerly-Republican lunacy characters.

The present collection of formerly-Republicans are so busy with the hostile takeover
of America, and committing crimes, there is not much left of the Republican party,
except for Republican voters. The real Silent Majority of the Republican party, is the
sensible, clear-minded, practical Americans, that have practiced patience and tolerance
of their friends, neighbors, and their own family members, after the GOP decided to
lead Republican party off the cliff, and into the Looney Bin.

There was turmoil, when Trump was first presented as a presidential candidate.
The GOP left their voters in the dust, as they raced after a scheme, that has become
America's nightmare.

For every maniac driving his huge truck, that trails big American flags and symbols
of racism, and shooting paint balls at random people that are walking the streets, is
a neighborhood of people, attempting to get on with their lives, and take care of their
families. Politics have become the ugliest yet, as news trickles out to the general public,
that the largest, most powerful, obscenely wealthy business corporations have been
undermining the fabric of Democracy.

In the past few years, entire towns have pushed back at these corporation-paid jerks,
and told them to get-the-fuck out, and do not bring that racist, bigoted, divisive shit
back into our town. You are not elcome, here!

Even inside MAGA rallies, staged in one firetruck, and one cop car villages, there was
a line that the villagers did not cross. They were there to attend the Trump show, not
to join the circus of paid performers. The real moment of truth, was the Trump fan that
drew back in shock, after he witnessed the violence of January 6th, first hand.
His comment, after he ran from the scene - "I never signed up for this!" No, he
did not sign on the dotted line, and get the cash for a fancy truck, deadly guns,
military grade armor, the best of internet gear, and all the junk he could ever dream
of. Suddenly, the flood of light dawning on him, that, no, it wasn't all a joke.
That deadly criminal shit was waiting behind all of those laughs.
He ran, and behind him, people died. Today, that shaken man might read
all of the stuff that the Trump administration tried to keep secret.

The garbage bag has ripped open, and the stink is unbearable to people that did not
cut off their noses, and close their sense of smell off, completely.

Did something die in there ? Might have been dead, since George W. Bush rode his
golden parachute out of DC , and left the White House behind.

Don't get too close! There is something that is more deadly than any version
of Covid-19 Delta, in there.

bodysong comment - I am not laughing too hard, because Democracy hung on
by the skin of its teeth. What if Joe Biden had died, before he could be elected ?
Our nation is so divided, it might have cracked into pieces. George W. Bush
left his poison in our government, and Trump left his.
 
Of course we know there will be a Republican candidate for president in 2024.
 
I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss Haley's chances. The Republicans love their tokens, and she is pretty good at the right-wing art form of "Aw shucks, folks, we can't be that bad, can we?"
well she's certainly working the 'flirt with criminality but claim she's just doing what any parent would for their child' angle, so she has a little bit of an in with deplorables, but she can't hold a candle to ranting 'jewish space lasers' greene with all her obscenities, lies, and VOLUME!

That's just it, she's playing Peggy Noonan to MTG's Ann Coulter, avoiding the hate-filled invective but with the same right-wing extremism underneath. Before Trump at least, that strategy always worked.
 
On the other hand, does the Democratic Party have a viable candidate for 2024. Most of the last lot are past their use by dates. Alternatives?
 
The GOP’s fanciful defense of Trump’s DOJ plot

I do recall [White House counsel] Pat Cipollone earlier saying “That letter,” meaning the draft letter to Georgia, “is a murder-suicide pact. And it will damage anyone and anything that it touches.”

And I remember some other specific comments along that line, but we kind of followed up on that saying, you know, “Do you want to be part of that?”

And so very deep into the conversation, the President, who was very frustrated, and he just shook his head and he said, “All right. We’re not going to do this.”

He looked at Jeff Clark and said, “I appreciate you being willing to do this."

I appreciate you being willing to step up and take all the abuse, but the reality is it’s not worth the breakage. We’re going to have mass resignations.
It’s going to be a disaster. You’re not going to be able to get this stuff done anyway,
and the bureaucracy will eat you alive. So we’re not going to do this.”

That’s not “this is the wrong thing to do.” That’s “this won’t work.”
 
isn't Kamala being 'trained up', so to speak? 4 years working alongside President Biden to be on the same page, working towards a unified vision for the country?
 
The GOP has devolved so thoroughly that they've given up any pretense of having a platform. Their only plan seems to be "stiggin it to teh libs", an us-vs-them focus that appeals to the white nationalists and their white wannabee nationalist auxilliary.

Yes, but the thing is - at least when Trump is on the ballot - it works.
 
Doesn't matter how incompetent or immoral the Republican candidate is. The Democrats will find a way to lose to them.

Even if Democrats happen to win they will lose because Joe Manchin always sides with Republicans on major issues.

When Republicans win the Republican agenda gets passed. When Democrats win the Republican agenda also gets passed.
 
The problem on this board and U.S. politics in general is that most are focused on political personalities and triggering political adversaries. Calling people deplorables or communists. Declaring politician X is an idiot. This is what passes for intelligent or productive political discourse.

What you don't see is discussions on actual public policies that affect the lives of most Americans. Lots of culture war nonsense from Republicans. Lots of vague and empty promises from Democrats.

45,000 Americans needlessly die from lack of healthcare. There are homeless Americans living under virtually every bridge in the nation. The public education system is under funded and young people are suffering under crushing college debt. The housing crisis is about to get worse. The transfer of wealth from the middle class to the rich continues.

But what's the hot topics of discussion? TMZ level political gossip. Stupid shit Trumpers say or believe. Anything except policies that would actually improve the lives of Average Americans like universal healthcare.

Amazing blue states don't do something about that.

No reason CA can't have a no ID needed (that's racist) open for any and all who show up with their hands out healthcare program paid for by California residents and tourist.

Can't give up the golden carrot!!!! :D

Then what would they dangle in front of you every 4 years??

The thing is, the details of public policy actually do matter less than what kind of politics are in the ascendant. If you want universal healthcare, you can better spend your energies persuading people to vote for leftists (and that does include putting down the RWs, and centrist Dems, in every way you can find) than explaining why the Canadian system is better -- if progressives take control, we will get UHC.

Too far gone. Discussing anything with you is kinda pointless. Just call me a commie and move on.

How is it "too far gone"??

I think you just don't like having the fact that blue states could have their UHC like right now pointed out.

But they won't even attempt to subject their residents to the kinds of policy they want nationwide, probably don't like that being pointed out either.

Why would I call you a commie, do you support a violent revolution of the proletariat seizing the means of production and distribution of goods and services???
