I don't agree with that assessment. There are other parts of that law which were needed. Further, this isn't a gun control law. It fixes portions of a previous law that were prone to abuse. I'd argue that background checks are totally unnecessary but Congress didn't agree.

Quoted:


No, Fix NICS wasn't a gun control law, and, in fact, it corrected some long-standing areas ripe for abuse.
When major manufacturers and lobbying organizations call Fix NICS a gun control bill, it is a gun control bill.

Your assessment is fucking 'tarded.


When you read the actual law, it fixes some parts of NICS that are ripe for abuse. It's not a gun control law. (Unless you believe NICS itself is a gun control law and you might be able to argue that point successfully IMHO.)
NICS IS GUN CONTROL


I'd only disagree to the extent it doesn't actually control anything. You could argue that it is an unnecessary administrative burden and I would agree with that. In some states, running a NICS check costs money so that would be an unlawful tax on a basic right. So, while I might quibble with calling it gun control, I'd certainly be overwhelmingly in favor of getting rid of it.


A right delayed is a right denied. Let's apply NICS to you purchasing a bible or ordering a movie from a streaming service.

Take your gun control supporting gun ass the fuck out of here.


This.

He had 4 years to go after the left.

He failed.

How do we know he won't fail again?

Why would I want a loser to win at something as important as the president.

There are other, better choices.

Millennial here. Fuck student loan forgiveness… and let’s abolish social security too. Socialism is socialism.


I agree, but to turn down one group (Millennials) and then refuse to even lay a finger on social security is hypocritical and it's going to cost the Republicans in 2024.  

If Republicans were consistently fiscally conservative than I think the majority of Millennials would accept the rejection of student loan forgiveness, but they Republicans are not consistent at all.  Can't be seen as sending Billions to the Industrial Military Complex, bailing out banks, and then denying the average Millennials student debt relief.   It's not a good combination and it's going to cost us severely.

Ultimately, the GOP is going to lose to the Democrats because the GOP doesn't offer a consistently solid conservative performance.  The GOP thinks it can get a little bit socialist when it suits them and them pretend to be conservatives when it doesn't.  Well, you can't get a little bit pregnant and the GOP is just socialist lite to many seen as just favoring corporate welfare over the common people.

We had a guy on here doing it.   I think he might have been some kind of gun rag writer?   Might be my slowly diminishing brain mixing him up with Zumbo or something.

Said something along the lines of "I regularly make 1000 yard shots, FYI if you fuckers get my ARs banned because of your bumpstock whining."   Something like that.

He liked to brag about going hunting with his state legislator or something too, I think.  Had lots of hunting pics of big horn sheep and stuff, which was pretty cool.   He actually talked about some pretty cool hunting stuff until he went off the deep end and went psychopath FUDD-mode.

Regardless of Trump's faults (and there are many), he's the last stand we have politically. If the left (and some on the right) are allowed to get away with not only what they've done to him, but what they're trying to do, they will have openly institutionalized the weaponization of our government against the highest office in the land and with zero accountability. If they can do this to a Presidential candidate, Presidential nominee, POTUS, former POTUS and current candidate for POTUS, you're nothing and stand zero chance when they come for you, and come for you they will.

Desantis is a fine governor and may make a good President someday, but now is the time to rally around Trump, not because he's perfect, but because he now represents what's left of our ability to fight back and they know it. Best get on board, hold your nose if you have to, but a vote for anything other then Trump at this point is supporting what they're doing to him and whomever will come after...

It is kind of sad that the best thing we can do right now is elect a guy that loves media attention and will do many stupid things.

I can't help but think that if Trump were a Democrat like he used to be most would be calling for his arrest. Maybe not.

Politics is all a bit too cultish for me. If Trump wins the nomination I will 100% vote for him. I have never voted Democrat in my life.

Do I wish out of the 320 some million people in this country we had someone better? Yeah I do.

It still baffles me how much support trump has.  By every normal metric other than "makes libs mad"  he is a terrible cunt of a person. None of you would want to work for him, be his friend, or let him anywhere near your kids or daughters . He cheats on his wives, he gets caught in lies frequently.  His presidency amounted to more spending and inflation than a democrat could ever dream of and more gun control than the democrat before him. He got no meaningful legislation even when he had majorities .

He's a piece of shit and a loser .  

Yes the left and FBI sabotaged him but it only worked so marvelously because he's a gigantic piece of shit.  Now you guys are all pumped up for round two of this turd just because the left doesn't like him. Even though women and moderates hate him too and he has zero chance of pulling swing states.

I think the left is pushing this at this point to martyr him and make sure he wins the primary because he can't beat Biden. And even if he did they know he'll be just as ineffective and easy to destroy in his second term because he'll still be a petulant crybaby cunt that nobody likes

14 pages of acrimony for nothing.

Time spent arguing about this is wasted.   The Republicans are not going to elect a President this time.   The party is more fractured than I've ever seen it.  

If Trump is nominated, the undecideds or moderates will hold their nose and vote for Biden.  And Republican turnout will be awful as a large portion of the party wants nothing to do with him.   If literally any other person is nominated, Trump will poison the die-hard Trumpists against him and he will stand no chance of winning with only a portion of the GOP.    I don't see how a Republican wins the 2024 Presidential election.  

The only chance we had was for Trump to bow out gracefully and use his leverage to unite the party behind a single candidate.  I don't see that ever happening.   There's still 17 months.   Maybe I'm wrong.



This is it. This is what every single Trump/DeSantis/Haley thread should start with, and then be locked.

You know how many shareblue guys like @Morlawn66 have openly admitted they won’t even vote if Trump isn’t nominated? They don’t need Trump to “sow” anything. They will just claim it’s rigged, man!!!


Undecideds and moderates will vote their pocketbook. Whichever GOPer gets the nomination better come out swinging on the economy. That's what will sink the Dimunists.


Just like they did in 2020?


Correct. Fraud overcame all of that which wasn't that hard since the communists only had to inject it in a small number of specific places to win. However, even some of the knuckleheads that actually half-heartedly voted for Xiden have had their pocketbooks clobbered. If they learned anything from that, they won't make that mistake again. If.

So far, I haven't gotten a good response from anybody on what to do about it yet. It would have to be a multi-pronged, national level effort and so far, I don't see any organizations stepping up.
The election wasn't stolen, Trump just sucked.


Anyone who cannot see the election was stolen and ignores all the actual evidence of precisely how it was stolen is delusional.


Living in MI I will not disagree. Even if it wasn't fully stolen... there were shenanigans (to put it lightly).

Free and fair elections don't look like the 2020 election.

Yes, it is Trump.
Ok smart Kids, who else if not Trump in 2024 that has a realistic chance of winning and will pursue the DC Swamp?


We don't even know all of the candidates yet.

Rand Paul would be light years better than Trump.

Cue the crystal ball holding "hE's UnElEcTaBlE!" crowd.


I don't know too much about Rand Paul's views on foreign affairs, same as I don't know too much about Ted Cruz's. I think both lean towards pro-freedom and small(er) government. That's always a good start.

When do all the candidates realistically need to declare they're running? I would assume some lead time before the Iowa caucuses?


They’ve both been in politics for a long time and have an extensive record. Moreover, both ran in the republican primary in 2016. Were your ears too full of orange jizz (by far the best jizz) to hear their positions then?


Neither have an extensive record on their foreign policy leanings. Rand Paul has had some isolationist tendencies in the past but if he runs for the big chair, he may not hold on to those. Cruz doesn't have a broad position on foreign policy. As far as I know, neither is a declared candidate.


As United States Senators they have voted on a plethora of bills related to foreign policy. Those votes will be more determinant as to how they will govern, not what the say on the trail.

Re: bold, if he changes that stance he will turn off a big portion of his base and be labeled some type of sellout/swamp creature.



Has he declared himself a candidate yet?


What does that have to do with this conversation? You said you didn’t know about their foreign policy positions. I said that is because your own willful ignorance.


Nonsense. You claimed if he changes his stance, he'll lose a big portion of his base. If he's not a declared candidate, why does it matter what his stance is on foreign policy?


Bro, you postulated that he might change that stance IF he runs.

There has to be multiple people posting from this account. No way one person can lose track if what they just said minutes ago.


No, I indicated he has some isolationist tendencies in the past. I also indicated *if he runs*, he may not carry those into his campaign. Ergo my question about whether he is a declared candidate or not. Do try to keep up.

Unless the fraud machine in the key states is dismantled, no GOP candidate can win.

Chief Justice John Roberts penned the opinion for a 5-4 majority, siding with the court’s three liberals. Justice Brett Kavanaugh agreed with the key parts of the holding, providing the fifth vote.

If you can't beat them, join them (just stay legal).  

We can't stop mail-in ballots at this point.  Legal challenges through the courts have failed.  Republicans have done as much as they can in states they control, but they can't do anything in states they don't control.  

DeSantis has the support of Elon Musk.  If Elon could do what Mark Zuckerberg did for the Democrats by helping Republicans legally harvest mail-in ballots from rural areas (particular from the elderly in rural areas who may have difficulty reaching polling stations) than that could a long way with these very close elections.  

GOP is going to have to put in as many monitors at polling locations as possible as well and watch the process like hawks, which give rise to legal actions from the Democrats so an army of lawyers needs to be on stand by.  

This election is going to be a nasty one. I fully anticipate increased ANTIFA and BLM violence next Spring and Summer, they're going to push reparations and probably latch on to some "police violence" to try and motivate the minorities to turn out since right now their support for the white elderly Biden is pretty lackluster.

It will also be interesting to see that with the monopoly on the DNC narrative now effectively being broken by Musk buying Twitter, what's going to happen in the information space.

Millennial here. Fuck student loan forgiveness  and let's abolish social security too. Socialism is socialism.


I agree, but to turn down one group (Millennials) and then refuse to even lay a finger on social security is hypocritical and it's going to cost the Republicans in 2024.  

If Republicans were consistently fiscally conservative than I think the majority of Millennials would accept the rejection of student loan forgiveness, but they Republicans are not consistent at all.  Can't be seen as sending Billions to the Industrial Military Complex, bailing out banks, and then denying the average Millennials student debt relief.   It's not a good combination and it's going to cost us severely.

Ultimately, the GOP is going to lose to the Democrats because the GOP doesn't offer a consistently solid conservative performance.  The GOP thinks it can get a little bit socialist when it suits them and them pretend to be conservatives when it doesn't.  Well, you can't get a little bit pregnant and the GOP is just socialist lite to many seen as just favoring corporate welfare over the common people.



This is one of the more frustrating things about today's GOP. They could be the party of smaller government, fiscal responsibility, and pro individual freedom. But they can't seem to get behind such a winning formula.
When the vast majority of the GOP is over the age or retirement. They won't touch the scared political neoliberalism cows that is Social Security and Medicare. The general mindset of the Baby Boomers has been authoritarianism, economic manipulation, professional gatekeeping, and government sponsored socialism that benefits them and them alone.

China isn’t truly communist, but they are a totalitarian society that has waged economic war against us for decades and you criticize Trump for fighting back.

This is a perfect example of the truth behind the Never Trumpers that don’t want what is best for America.

There was a ton of support for Trump in '20. Huge rallies on land and in boats on the water. Even when he wasn't anywhere around. Signs. Bumper stickers. Guys just showing up on street corners waving Trump/MAGA flags...

Yeah, that AZ thread (and it kinda expanded to other states) has been a real eye opener. The fraud machine was large, well funded, and well organized.

This is just one aspect of how the fraud took place and how lawfare was used to protect the fraud:

Florida had a record budget surplus for FY 2021-2022. Tell me again how that fares in comparison to the $7.8 trillion Trump tacked onto out debt in 4 years.

While FL doesn't have open carry, they got permitless carry, so a PRO-GUN bill. May not be everything that was wanted, but it went in the right direction. What pro-gun bills did Trump sign when he had a majority in both houses?

FL's Red Flag Law was signed by Rick Scott, not Ron DeSantis. This is the equivalent of saying Trump is responsible for every shittly bill that previous presidents signed.

He failed to push the most important gun law reform through a Republican supermajority. To deny that these are real problems is disingenuous.

I wouldn't make the blanket statement that DeSantis will never be President. He might very well be some day. Might not be in 2024 but if he continues to have success in Florida, he might very well be a shoe-in in 2028.
