Trump II Will Feature A Whole Lot Of Christian Nationalism - TPM – Talking Points Memo

The religious thing and the various right-wing wackoness is why Trump II really gives me pause. Orange guy has the attention span of a gnat and will retreat into watching himself on Newsmax 12 hours a day, but all his appointees will be shipping immigrants to camps and making the Bible required reading. (And not those New Agey versions, either.)

My bitter hope is they’ll eventually come for Stephen Miller, who’s like a kapo.

There’s historical precedent for that.

They wouldn’t even need to be so obvious. All they needed to do was lock the door and forget to let Navalny back in from his morning walk. At -20 degrees or so, he wouldn’t last very long. Plus, no marks on his body.

I’m sure his health was sufficiently degraded that it wouldn’t take much to trigger a heart attack, a deadly case of whatever bug is going around, or whatever.

His face looks as desiccated as his heart and brain. :grimacing: (Sort of like the mid-point of the Nazis melting down in Raiders of the Lost ark.)

I’ve said this before: One of the most important jobs any Speaker of the House has is to raise money to re-elect House members, and to expand their majority. This is why Speakers always used to be selected from the group of Members who had significant tenure in the House. They needed to be well-known, to have created and nurtured relationships with both other members of the House, and with lobbyists, and the parties donors. Mike Johnson is absolutely, positively, none of those things. Not any of 'em. He’s a MAGAt freak who has less business being Speaker than I do. (I am similarly unconnected, but, (at least in my own humble opinion), I am not a one man, walking, talking, Christian Nationalist Freak Show.)

Mikle campagned with and for the freak the GOP ran in Santos’s district. I have no idea how much money the GOP wasted on that, but I think they lost that seat by double fscking digits.

Mike gives me tremendous confidence that the Speaker of the House next January will be Hakeem Jeffries.

Wait, they canceled a “You Can’t Cancel America Tour” stop? Self-canceling, I like it

What about the orange idiot who can barely climb stairs, negotiate a ramp, or hold a glass of water? And who clutches the podium like a life raft in stormy seas. Plus the drugs - dilated pupils, slurred speech, white detritus spewing out his nose, etc.

No a single haul refused… so sad…like all MAGAs they all talk out of their ass, without thinking things through. A Truck owner-operator that refuses a trip forces the client to look elsewhere, customer might not call again.

Oh, I know it’s a facade. But like everything else in his facade, it suckers the suckers — which include too many members of the media (not that it matters, his followers only want the pure fluffers).
