The Dem civil war will be over before 2026. One way or the other the Dem's will have to unify before the mid-terms, the only question is which sides wins out; the progressives or the moderates.

Right now both sides are leaderless and broke but they won't stay that way. They will unify and either double down on the crazy if the progressive wing wins out or try to back track to sanity if the moderates prevail.

I still think they will lose 2026 because the party is so far gone they will struggle to get good candidates up and their message out.
The Blue Dogs are basically dead. I think it’s basically going to be a purity spiral and ultimately the party actually fracturing for a while. They bet their future on groups they can’t appease.
There is solid science behind the idea of "Healthy Body, Healthy Mind", and it would explain a great deal of jeet malignance.
I’d argue that’s responsible for most social ills of the last 80 years. I also think mental illness is a very cheap way of depriving men of rights. Every social ill is now a sickness.
 
I think they're going to be cleaning up the cities in a real way. bigly huge. We might get something like this again. Not all White, but not all brown either. Clean, relatively crime free, and no homeless people smoking crack. hopefully more affordable.

Also more deportations. Wooooo!
There has to be a lot of deportations and actually enforcing the law to ever get back to "the good ol days." It may happen but things need to ramp up if it's going to happen under this term.
 
I'm a glowie, I do it for free for Dear Sneeder. Don't ever threaten the DPKF or his majesty, the big cheese. You'll brie in real american style trouble here, so you cheddar not break the mold or you'll end up black and bleu.

That is, if you know whats gouda for you then everything will be mild, and I won't have to get sharp with you. So behave on my block or you'll get shredded.

I think that's why they're mobilizing the national guard in 19 states. We've made so much progress over the last 8 months, and we already have at least 3 years. Even if the democrats somehow take the senate, which I doubt, they won't be able to stop the deportations. These powers have already been granted by the court to the president. Yeah it'll take a lot of work, but the more work you put in, the more it will motivate people to self-deport as well. If you know someone who's been deported, you're much more likely to self-deport. Plus reviewing all 55 million visa holders. Again, we're at month 8.

I do agree, they need more resources. Just keep ramping it up.
 
Really, because the impression I got from it is "we're not perfect, we still and will always have a long way to go."

It's called being honest about yourself. Nobody and no country is perfect and none will be.
Then you are falling for the demoralization and justifying it. We could learn about other cultures never apologizing for shit, because as per usual, whitey is the only one that constantly punches himself in the balls to make things "fair".
 
I know he's not popular around here, but De Santis would be a solid choice as well.
I don't like him as a VP, but he woudl be top notch in a couple rolls, AG (he was a jag lawyer), SoS, or maybe DNI. Not sure if sec of defense would be a step up for him or not.

Desantis is a good guy to have in your cabinet, but i'm not sure he has the ability to win elections nationwide. His campaign for potus was really hamstrung by his horrible pr/campaign staff. Jeff Roe is a real fuckign loser. Roe is the reason desantis had no chance at a cabinet seat with Trump.

Pushaw had this very abrasive style that got her blacklisted as well

Desantis comes off as somewhat Elon-like. There’s been speculation that he actually is an autist. Of course you don’t need to be exceptional to lack charisma. He’s very competent, in a perfect world he would have been a great executive despite the philosemitism, but ultimately we live in the age of mass media where “vibes” and “fuckability” determine who wins. Actual ability doesn’t matter.

Elon-like, yeah. I think he's more a plastic sort of stiff guy. His people did him a real disservice trying to make him more Trump like, he's just not, and he will never be. He has done a really good job in Florida, I can't fault him for anything there really. But he's more a stiff rigid guy that mostly puts his head down and plows ahead and gets shit done. He reminds me of a lot of older assistant manager at a fast food place type of guy. he's a great boss, and as long as you do what your told as an employee, it's going to do his best to do right by you. I don't really know any other way to explain that.

I read some shit on him back before the primaries, some juicy shit I wish i could share, but his redacted stuff isn't all that glowy. he was attached to a seal team and was basically the guy that administered piss tests, made sure all the legal boxes were checked. he was at gitmo for a some pretty nasty stuff, force feeding detainees is the public line.

So how did voters in the crucial swing states of Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania react?

Lest we forget that campaigning with Liz Cheney actively lost Kamala votes in those vital swing states.

This shit will never not be fucking hilarious to me.

The only people who like the Cheneys are decaying neocons and NPC shitlibs. Everyone else (aka normal people) fucking hate them.
 
Make it more clear that the Nazi’s we’re a socialist party and a lot of democrat talking points and goals are directly from Hitler’s agenda, make it clear how the war was won thanks to America, and make sure Japan is treated very harshly for its history because they always get to weasel out of any accountability. None of this “atom bombs bad, America was the true villain” garbage
Millions of Japanese were starving to death. Those 2 freedom mushrooms did Japan a favor. They should be thanking us.

My Yakuza friend would butcher you for saying this. And I’d cheer him on. You’re a sick son of a bitch and I’d splash my mangosteen in your face for being such a faggot. Thanks to those blasts probably millions of potential anime’s were lost, not that an inbred fuck like you would understand the significance of the loss of the arts.
 
Also: Don't try to invade Russia in the winter.
And if you do decide to invade, don't shoot at and shit on the poor kulaks that were literally cheering you on and trying to give you bread and samogon and tell you where the Russian soldiers were as you passed by during your push East!

You may just make it closer than about 5 miles to Moscow.

When you're right, you're right. TIME FOR MORE NUKES!
