Bush, Cheney, McCain, Romney, Ryan and Pence refuse to support Trump because they hate him more than they love the country. They would rather allow Biden to finish the job of destroying it, and perhaps start WWIII, rather than support their party's nominee. It tells you everything you need to know about who they represent, and it's not GOP voters. Fuck them all.
If/when Trump wins he should shut down the Republican Party. End it bury it. Fold the remains into something new that’s truly conservative that stands for what we the people want that believes in our constitution.
He's in the process of doing that. Nikk! was their last gasp. Look who is waiting in the wings - DeSantis, maybe Abbott, Sarah H. Sanders. There are more. There is no energy remaining behind the Bush/Cheney/Romney wing.
In congress, the 2024 elections will result in a more MAGA House and Senate.
# 14, The former RNC employees are scared we might have real conservatives win the elections.
#21, CIA is only supposed to spy on foreign countries. Who is surprised they dont follow the laws they promised to uphold just like the other 3 letter soup cans?
By law the CIA and the military cannot conduct operations on US soil. With the military it's police actions. However, the National Guard is exempt from that restriction. Back in the day the Guard trained every drill with batons and riot formations. Lot's of rioting in the 60's and early 70's. If the Trumpster wins, we're going to have to use the Guard again...
I thought that was the law. Amazing that the CIA, NSA and others ignore it. I remember the riots of the 90s in LA and the rooftop Koreans. Boy the Koreans pissed off a lot black people wanting to burn their businesses and neighborhoods down. I expect the leftest brown shirts to try again, that is for sure.
For younger readers: the "rooftop Koreans" preferred that their stores not be burned down during the riots, so they took rifles up to roof and defended their property. Successfully. I would guess that after the riots these stores were the only ones still standing in many black neighborhoods.
"...Bibi wiping Hamas off the face of the Earth. He has no choice."
Wasn't it General Schwarzkopf who said something like, "A war isn't over until your enemy agrees it's over." That's why we had to beat the Japanses into total submission to get them to quit. What are the odds Hamas, or Hezbollah or any other terrorist group will throw in the towel and join the civilized world? Zero. So, Israel must fight on and on and on.
Hamas killed a tribal chief and now it looks like his clan will be gunning for Hamas. Things are going straight downhill for Hamas and they are making big mistakes. This may be over sooner that Shumer thinks.
5. Schumer publicly calling for elections in Israel is an indicator on how much he and the donkeys fear losing the Hamas sympathy vote as the November election draws closer. How desperate they get remains to be seen but the signs of their nervousness are increasing by the week - why else would Stephanopoulos step on a rake ten times in the Nancy Mace interview with his closet full of skeletons? Things are about to get even crazier on the left.
The cost of getting into a home has risen 80 percent. Producer Price Index increased double what they expected. Haiti will be on the back burner in the fall. Inflation will be on the front burner.
What will be on the front burner will be the continuing incidents of Americans being murdered, raped, and maimed by illegals that should never have been in the country. Then there is identity theft, paying for their welfare and health care while Americans of lesser economic means watch in disbelief. It is a political cauldron ready to boil over.
And in not headline news Riley Gaines in concert with more than a dozen other young ladies sued the NCAA for violating the rights of female athletes.Pray they win and sanity returns .Great recap with all Poca- Mans takes giving me a wry smile at times while stifling my anger.Lead on Mr. Surber giving Dr. cat a treat.
...and so I think we're going to see which states' GOP organizations are headed up by traitorous fools...I hate to say it of my now home state, but the Texas GOP is as corrupt as any state Democrat organization – it used its leverage with some state supreme court justices to determine as invalid the vast majority of signatures to a petition asking Republicans voting in the Primary whether they supported Texas independence from the United States. It was merely a request to let the voters have their voices heard, but it was shut down a second time – so, we're starting over from square one, again.
While Texas is a reliably red state, Cruz's margin of victory grows more slim with each election – he could lose, this time.
The Texas Republican party is not in good shape. The quality of the legislature has been headed downhill for a decade, and the executive leadership is mediocre at best. And pinning one's hope's and dreams on Ken Paxton will end in heartbreak.
28. The problem is that hamas is only one tiny head of this massive Medusa called islam. Hezbollah and many others are still being funded through Iran.
Yeah, but all our fossil fuel options need to be shut down and prime farm land turned into solar farms or wind farms. Never mind that we literally do not have enough land in the US if you covered every square in to power our energy needs. plus building a floating dock at Gaza to hand more aid/food to Hamas direct and give them a US military target to hit?
The list of insanity is long. His proposed budget was $7.6 TRILLION. larger I think than the pandemic budgets... I am pretty sure it is one of the largest, if not the very largest in history but he is reducing our deficient just ask him.
Item #7. Vlad will have elections because he knows he will win Zelenskyy canceled
theirs because he thinks he may lose. Makes perfect sense. Here we will have elections because the ballots are all ready pre-printed with the votes already on the ballots to make voting easier.
Pinto owner (bless his heart) must be a Democrat because doesn't know if he is pro-war or anti-war--or this was the "Jesus" model Maybe he had already peered into the future of Ford Motor Company in general, and the Pinto, in particular. Is porn a measure of IQ? And only in blue states? Dadgum these coffee spurts! (Flashback to 1750: “Simon Legree hires 52 immigrants from Africa.”) Neil Young is a year older than Rob Reiner. Reiner has no talent. I think its high time Stephanopoulos took one for the team! I say the illegals did not come DOWN with measles, they came UP here with measles. For distribution purposes. The WaPo is the closest we'll come to TASS or Pravda. That's because the NYT still has the Book List. RBG's folks finally found something to be unhappy about! Easter Potatoes?! Next they'll call Eggs Benedict, Eggs Benedict Arnold. Pity poor Ronald McDonald, who has kept the secret of the ice cream machine all these years. It only took one retired investigative reporter to out him! Irony of ironies, they tore down our Dairy Queen to put up our McDonald's. Music for the masses: I always liked Sweet Home Alabama better, but Free Bird always gave the DJ a potty break.
Sarah Palin is the ONLY living person to ever be a Presidental or Vice-Presidential nominee that supports Trump. Bush, Cheney, Ryan, Romney, Pence are only living Republican nominees. Dole might’ve if he were alive.
Forgot about Dan Quayle. Haven’t heard his feelings on 2024.
It says much about the transformative nature of the GOP under Trump that he was nominated by record margins of voter support while also getting equally shocking margins of opposition in the back room.
The divide between the party voters and party elders has been real and evident since Bush 41 went back on his promise to read his lips. Too many were frustrated by “lesser of two evils” in countless Senatorial races, Congressional races, and ‘08/‘12 campaigns. Swamp doesn’t get it, and McConnell, Boehner, Ryan, and co kept steering the ship further off course than the crew wanted. That gold they were given to steer off course would not stave off the mutiny by the electorate.
Just as Reagan was the response to a party out of touch, Trump is a continuation and evolvement of that response.
The share of the actual party as envisioned by the professional “conservative” class is roughly what share Nikki Haley amassed. People that live in the real world of their policy consequences are certainly better at understanding the problem. Bud Light and Disney would be coming off record profit years if the National Review Republican crowd of was right about anything.

Call it the FOUNDING FATHERS party.
Emphasis on FATHERS, just to freak the left out.
Amen Rev.
Lean into the R at the end of Fathers.
HOW it dies is less important to me than that it does.

I pray you are right Jim.
Not disagreeing, they'd hate any candidate that represents the people.
follow the money.
It leads to China.
And back to the dems/lefty millioaires.
Maybe add Julius and Ethel Rosenburg to this list of persons.

Good article, tj, thanks for posting.
I can only pray the pendulum is going back towards sanity.
I eagerly await the Food Network's upcoming show about Haitian cuisine.
How unfortunate that Anthony Bourdain won’t be able to host it.
We still have Andrew Zimmern.
"Man vs. Food" takes on a while new meaning.
Heh! And kudos for your nod to Bubble Puppy, the quintessential one hit wonder.
“Hot Smoke & Sassafras, baby! Groovy!”
Hang on ...
Lol
I started to formulate replies to some of Don’s comments, and by #7 realized my comments would be as long as Don’s piece and not nearly as funny.
My only constructive suggestion would be to add a subtitle to Saturday’s highlights - “What a stupid/dangerous/batshit crazy time to be alive!”
Or as the Chinese might say: "These are the interesting times we told you about."
Excellent summary!
The Hur bit was beautiful!🤩
Poca-Man touch.

Terrific! I used to go to the Y to swim then watch Abbot & Costello movies on Saturday afternoons. Great stuff!

In order to win a war you have to win the war. Kill them all until they stop trying to kill you.
As the Metallica album suggests, “Kill Em All”!
“You’ve got to kill people, and when you’ve killed enough they stop fighting.”
“There are no innocent civilians, so it doesn’t bother me so much to be killing innocent bystanders.”

1 - There is no way that a conviction in that court will withstand an appeal.
6 - Your headline names the decedent, Too kind. Actually this could be a sort of Jeopardy type game. Headline and guess who they're referring to.
24 - Finally someone at the RNC answered the tweet Presler has been reposting forever.
Thanks for more great work, Don. You're the best.
Thanks
Lara looks to get the job done
When a business person takes a job, they actually expect to accomplish something.
As fired up as Scott is only a fool or traitor would refuse to get him involved.

And Xiden is now giving Iran another $10 Billion.
I read today bidet signed off on 500 million of our moneys to Bahrain in search of fossil fuels.WTF

Got to buy dem votes ya know.
I don’t and never have liked any Neil Young music . He can’t sing worth an poo and then he runs his mouth to piss you off on top of his bad singing.
I always like cowgirls in the sand, cause it was fun to shower afterwords.
You owe me a new keyboard.
Me, too.
He always sounded like a female cat in heat to me.
What? Next you’ll be telling me that you don’t like Bob Dylan, either. LOL
Dylan has talent, and he's had something to say – Neil's just the troubadour equivalent of the old man yelling, "Get off my lawn!"
Item #7. Vlad will have elections because he knows he will win Zelenskyy canceled

I am probably missing the punchline here, but those songs are Lynyrd Skynyrd songs, not Neil Young songs.
I could be wrong but that is the whole point. Nobody missed Neil Young when he left, no one will know he actually came back.....
“A Southern man don’t need him around anyhow.”
Ah! Hope Neil Young will remember…. Got it. The iconic Skynyrd response to the Neil Young Screed “Southern Man”
I gotcha! Time for my second cup of coffee I guess. Thanks
No worries, I had to go back for mine too before I figured it out. lol, if I did.
What's more, no one cares...
As a southerner I had no problem with this. Too funny.
Yep, me neither!
I think L.S. should write a new hit song stomping on N.Y.
That would be lovely salt in the wound!
As a northerner I had no problem either.
Outstanding news about Scott!!
He's every boomer's son, isn't he?
Ummm... not mine, but thanks for the offer.

Where would Sara Huckabee fall? Is she MAGA or establishment class?
Maga Dennis.
Very MAGA . . . and my first pick for VP as it would set up the best first female POTUS for 2028.
Well put C.B.
Don't count on it.
