I don’t think Liz Cheney is particularly Nazi affiliated. I suspect the biggest defectors are actually repulsed by what Trump has come to represent.

I can see why they might woo current Republicans… In the case the lose by a thin margin, it would give them greater leverage to block Trump’s administration.

Dr. Frankenstein’s car, Dr. Frankenstein’s money, Dr. Frankenstein’s custom tailored suit.

The pterror!

These are the people who vote on vibes and emotions, it’s important candidates and politics don’t discount them because they’re the main voter block.

They’ve been reacting to the perceived moralist shaming of WOKE since 2014, and the right have kept that perception around whilst mocking it, being unPC, and joking around to show they’re “cool guys”.

So when Kamala makes a face when Trump says something about eating cats, the left think he’s an idiot whilst emotional voters think he’s play a game, joking and she’s being rude/shaming.

Or when he dresses like a garbage man, and the left calls them stupid for enjoying it, that pushes emotional voters towards voting for him, and away from voting for her/them.

Dems lost sight of the emotional game/narrative being played. So he played the fun guy, they played the shaming upright moralists who can’t take jokes and want to be serious or angry all the time (often bejng baited into this role).

Made for an easy choice for emotional voters. It was not rational (hence the regret). But it’s what got the Republicans into office.

He’s also said that full self driving mode is just a year away… He’s said that 10 years running.

He also said we’d be on mars by 2021.

…and here’s a 20 second clip where he lets on that he knows it’s all a grift…

Probably be a mix of the two for a bit, then get worse.

This is a function of the establishment right wing having usurped traditional conservativism (and their broad values), and replaced it with the nihilistic morality-free Capitalist libertarianism of the millionaires and billionaires funding “conservative” think tanks.

So there’s no genuine right wing anymore. There’s a conservative shell with anti-state, pro-Capitalist Libertarianism in the middle. All just so taxes and regulations could be lowered on the wealthy and their corporations.

It’s a subversive attack on the nations of the world, and now governments have self-weakened and invited in their own doom and corruption rather than taking a principled stance by fighting it.

It’s truly an ongoing attack on the nation.

Meanwhile in Australia: West-eh-share.

You really are stuck on this idea that I said something about the American election… I didn’t.

Why would it offend me? I’m not Professor John Mearshiemer:

‘The Blob’ is his concept, what he calls it… And it has nothing to do with constraining votes in elections. It has to do with constraining the actions and choices of an American President when they’re in power.

I think you just don’t understand the concept (for whatever reason), and have mistaken these real world organizations (that make up The Blob) as the fanciful stuff of conspiracy theories…

…no, they all actually exist, and have stated purposes and membersship lists, mission statement, budgets, ect.

P.S The EU controls companies through their legislative and legal bodies, which have sanctions, and market influence. They’re why apple can no longer have their own changing jacks - because although you’re not aware of it, they do hold sway over companies.

You not being aware of this, is not the same as them being “teenage fantasies” or folklore.

The other option is that things don’t change because there’s an invisible set of organizations and agreements that force the status quo to be reproduced.

This set of organizations is what John Miershiemer calls “The Blob”. It includes all sorts of thing tanks, the world bank, the council on foreign relations, NATO, this melding of big money corporations and political interests that control enough money and influence over how society is run, that not even Trump will truly be able to change the fundamentals in any substantial or lasting way.

The level of change stops when it risks their money and the stability of The Blob. We do not know what life would be like without The Blob - because we’ve never had it.

People don’t understand, they both speak the same language. They’re both natural grifters… What’s more Musk is probably better at it than Trump was. Trump needed lessons from Roy Cohn, who was a ruthless, damaged, low empathy, closet homosexual and self-hater.

Musk didn’t need that kind of mentor, he’s a natural grifter, and my bet is that Trump is fascinated by him. They do similar things in different ways.

Only in certain scenarios would this blow up, and Musk has already bent the knee to Trump, so those scenarios are unlikely.

Musk is a friendly fellow grifter Trump can use, and has power over, which is what Trump likes.

At best we’ll see Musk become a fall guy for Trump’s shortcomings. But seeing as Trump may later die in office, Musk might also avoid such a fate. Only time will tell.

Coming to a Cinema near you.

Liberals still hating on Bernie supporters and refusing to accept the idea that voters wanted a shake up of the system, rather than a female version of the status quo establishment left?

…so now we’re stuck with a right wing shake up to the system instead.

The comic should be considered as professional medical advice.

Happiness is just a sign depression is around the corner!

He wants it done quick before anyone looks at the results too closely.

You can re-calibrate tabulation machines - did you know that? Like if you had Bernie Sanders winning 400,000 votes and Trump, 300,000, you can calibrate the machine to switch those names.

I don’t think I do have to do that… no.

Probably more thanks to the artists who draw the comics… It’s not their fault the writers suck!
