      He's trying to find a USP and grasping at straws. Someone has to collect federal taxes and you can't use the IRS to attack 'wokeness'.

        It is more how rapidly he has moved from the future of the Republican Party to straight up wakkadoodle.

            He seems to have massively misjudged his abilities. Even if we imagine that Trump died in 2021 and this field were wide open, I suspect someone with more charisma (maybe one who is currently lying low and waiting for 2028) would have stepped in and beaten him.

                  DeSantis may be even less self aware then Trump

                    See people always say this about the future, but it almost always turns out to be some cunt like jeb!!! or mitt or john kerry or hilary. or marco rubio or...

                      The likes of the Mercers and Thiel don't know any decent humans

                        About a year ago I read an article about thiel (It might have been on here,) but the thing that struck me about him was aside from his terrifying lack of empathy, was that if he was half as clever as he thought he was, he'd know how little he knew about things. He certainly wouldn't be saying things like we haven't really invented anything new since the late 19th century, and held up as an example that the f-35 wasn't as fast as an F-4 from the mid 1950's as signs of technological stagnation.

                        I struggle to see him finding someone who has broad appeal. I get the impression that thiel doesn't have the first idea what that would be like.

                          I find myself perversely hoping that Trump doesn't die before early November 2024.

                            I think it’s safe to assume that whoever is the Republican nominee is going to fit that description perfectly well. I’m sure it’s really not worth the effort of investing much hope in an alternative outcome from the GOP electorate.

                            And given 2016, I don’t even think it’s worth investing much hope in them picking the person we think is least electable.

                            It’s better to just watch is as pure comedy spectator sport and to laugh at them, because what else can you do?

                              Yes but we've got a form guide on Trump from 2020 and 2022 so we can estimate the top vote he could get far better than our efforts in 2016, not to mention how the sexual assault jury decision will play with centrist women.

                                          The images and text are so rapid it looks as though its main purpose is subliminal imprinting.

                                          Kate Bush's legal representatives might be in touch re. the choice of music.

                                            Someone said that it was as if he is running for President of 4 Chan, which is spot on

                                                  That's a great photo, btw, assuming it's not been touched up. Face could be his death mask.
