I'm watching MSNBC about DeSantis dropping out and endorsing tRump but can't find anything about it on the web yet.
I don't do Xitter but nothing shows up from that on a google search either.
I'm more or less not wasting my time on the clown show or drama queens. I'm wait and see with Trump on disqualification and criminal convictions. I have no high expectations from the republican party, all that are left of it are idiots, miscreants, terrorists, insurrectionists, racists, fascists, grifters and other assorted character flawed fools.I'm watching MSNBC about DeSantis dropping out and endorsing tRump but can't find anything about it on the web yet.

The trouble with driving on the right is the road is tilted and slippery and it is easy to slide into the righthand ditch on the curves and then have a fatal crash of your democracy as you go cartwheeling on a long into the wilderness...

DeSantis drops out of GOP primary, endorses Trump for 2024
“It’s clear to me that a majority of Republican primary voters want to give Donald Trump another chance,” the governor continued. “While I have had disagreements with Donald Trump such as on the coronavirus pandemic and his elevation of Anthony Fauci, Trump is superior to the current incumbent Joe Biden. That is clear.”
DeSantis went on to signal his support for Trump while hitting former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley.
“I signed a pledge to support the Republican nominee and I will honor that pledge. He has my endorsement because we can’t go back to the old Republican guard of yesteryear. A repackaged form of warmed-over corporatism that Nikki Haley represents.”
DeSantis drops out of GOP primary, endorses Trump for 2024
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) dropped out of the Republican presidential primary Sunday, marking the end of a stunning rise and fall for a candidate once seen as the most formidable rival to former…
I *watched* that live…seriously surreal…”old man attempts to engage with cloud”
Clapper’s standing took a big hit when it got around that the ‘blues man’ was a supporter of UKIP & Nigel Farrage (recent Trump rally GoH)
I will continue to point out that actual brainwashing/psycho-emotional programming/political indoctrination is a legitimate factor: there are a surprising number who have heard nothing but ‘conservative’ big juice their whole lives, who’ve been “very carefully taught” what to believe & how to react, just like their parents…and just like they’re passing on to their kids.
Yeah, y’all can keep them damn hornetsI'll take plague rats for 200 Alex.
Does that not signal that he likes the sound of the Donald and Ronald ticket? Ronald has got to be thinking this is his chance to serve 10 years as commander in chief. Let Donald fuck shit up for at least two years plus a day, and Ronald still gets the chance at two more elections, but as the incumbent that has the ability to legally issue pardons.Not too sure.

He’s too backwoods weasel-kin for that…he’s gone as far as a half-gram of charisma can take him.
I agree they have proven to be unfit, just not sure enough of those that can vote understand that, yet.
There is generational change, there is a churn of a few million voters every election cycle. Then there is demographic change and technologically driven economic changes could dramatically change the political dynamics of America in a decade. According to some predictions the biotech industry might be having an effect as early as 2030. I'm skeptical of the predictions, but continued research has me wondering about recently developed continuous flow bioreactors that have high capacity and low cost from a company called POW, I posted a video about them on the renewables thread. The industry is as diverse and complex as life itself and has orders of magnitude more possibilities than any other industry.
In interviews after 2016, he did not approve of Trump and his ways. He seems more like the "low taxes, low regulations, leave me alone" kind of conservative. The kind that doesn't want it so badly that they would destroy democracy to get it. I have always found his Dirty Harry character repugnant but that wasn't his only act. His movies about Iwo Jima were all about seeing the event from both sides. He's conservative and I've never supported Republicans but Trump has given me a new perspective of what is now referred to as loyal conservatives.
The republican party planted the seeds of its own destruction decades ago and increasingly attracted racists and radicals. What was subtle and slow quickened in pace when Obama came to power and racists began to take more of an interest in politics and it became the thing not spoken about, every other "reason" but not too direct. Then came Trump and drove the decent patriotic people out of the party or side lined them. He offered the full-strength stuff, the big lie and the big con strongman stuff and they were under attack and needed a strong leader! His grift was better than Mitch's and Carl Rove's and he stole the party right out from under them as many with some sense left went independent. He also attracted new morons and miscreants to the party while driving out the good people. He owns the republican party, indictments, court cases and all and they know they are a shrinking white majority, and he is fucking crazy and desperate enough to give them what they really want deep down inside. Democracy itself takes second or even third place when compared to the imagined grievance of white America.
