They have no shame, Mike Brown's mother speaking :lol
Already more packed than the RNC in Cleveland :lmao
"Mothers of the Movement"
Maybe if they had been better mothers their kids wouldn't have gotten shot to start with, but heck, might as well cash in now.
Just remember, the "Fathers of the Movement" are much more difficult to locate - donkeys don't like to take the long, difficult route of trying to find "daddy".Quote:

This will be very interesting. This better be a quick one and let the other moms talk.
To quote Scott Adams, the election is going to be the cop killer vs the racist. Who will America choose?
This is really it, tbh... The entire platforms are basically "he/she is worse than me! vote me!"Quote:

That's true. And it speaks to what I'm saying about the no shame part.Quote:

but they don't even acknowledge that, they continue to double/triple down on it hoping that undecideds will buy into it... eventuallyQuote:

If they don't win this election, what do they do? Blow it up?
which makes it hilarious that republicans keep calling her a "radical leftist" :lolQuote:

They've been saying that for years. They'll probably pick Scott Walker, and then he'll pick another ultra religious conservatard (ie: Cruz) as running mate (for no reason whatsoever, since the base will always vote red anyways).Quote:

Hopefully they get their shit together in 4 years or less, hard to envision 8 years of Shillary.
imaginary land here, but if you took the warhawk out of lindsey graham he'd be a reasonable candidate
They need to blow it up, but they won't because they get too much money from their constituents/lobbyists to make changes on their platform. The party is so exclusive to a certain demographic that they don't have the ability to expand their message. I said earlier that Hillary is the worst Democratic candidate since Dukakis and may be even worse than him since he was a successful 3-term governor in Massachusetts yet the Republicans nominated such a wild card in Trump that they could easily choke this election away.Quote:

Bush would have gotten a ton of Hispanic voters compared to what Trump will get.Quote:

I have seen some commentary that asserts that the GOP is being remade in Trump's image, as if he has pretty much hijacked the party to serve his own ego. Sadly plausible to me.
If the GOP primary voters are willing to pick Trump, what makes anyone think that they will do better in 2020? Like something is going to really change?
Four more years of GOP self-torpedoing...
I can't entirely disagree. Hillary though, ran a tough campaign against Obama in 08.Quote:

They will continue, as paid by the VRWC/BigCorp, to destroy govt, to privatize everything, fuckover the 99% while protecting/enriching the 1%.
The Repug base is still obsessed with god/guns/gays/abortion/hate/paranoia/Muslims/conspiracies/white Christian supremacy, and will never vote Dem in any significant numbers, and so will continued to be fucked over the Repug establishment.
Trash will be trashed by Hillary.
Repug establishment will have a post-mortem, as in 2008, 2012, and continue the above exactly as before the election.
Trash is a symptom of the Repug well-paid, diseased dysfunctionality, not the cause.
Sanders supporters plan fart protest of Hillary Clinton’s DNC speech. Really

If he loses this election, they're kicking his ass out. I have zero doubts about that. Priebus is going with him.Quote:
