Kamala is fully backed by the establishment. They feel safe with her because they know that she'll let the rich and powerful do whatever they want and then play dumb when someone asks. It's like that old saying, if every news station, major corporation, and the US government are in your corner, you are in no way oppressed.

I'd imagine Jeb in many ways would've just been a continuation of his brother, if not worse in some ways, he was very much part of the political machine and he was fine with "business as usual". I kind of think he would've been softer on illegals as well; I remember Trump hammering him pretty hard over his approach to illegals when the 2016 primary was in full swing, so we could've gotten another Reagan-tier amnesty for the little parasites.

Just for accuracy's sake, George H.W. Bush (Bush 41) only served one term (1989-1993), having been defeated for re-election by Arkansas Gov. Bill Clinton.

"Hitting the wall" means loosing your looks to age. There's a point when the collagen starts to go and things start to sag. It's uncharitable to point out except in cases like this when the mutton is dressing like lamb and being a dumb bitch to boot:
A barbie blow out, big false eyelashes, and hoop earrings on the Crypt Keeper. It looks totally unprofessional and embarrassing. In a time when people are angry at the entrenched establishment, at those who gracelessly hold on to power long beyond what is reasonable or fair, this sort of vanity deserves mockery.
Mein Nigger, someone just posted a poll showing women voting 41% (
) for Trump. Come on.

She says ok. Why? He went completely off rail. Threats of violence isn't misinformation, and the whole book "banning" narrative is nonsense. No one is banning anything. If you want to go check out the material that some schools are removing from their libraries, you can do that on your own time either online or with another library. That's not an attack on free speech.

Suspect Vem Miller appears to be a "real character" as we say in the business.
The problem is, the arrest was last night, I heard about it from "BREAKING" sources 4 minutes ago, and it's already pretty much DFE-ed. And the Wayback Machine, as we all know, is down.
We gotta spread out the work load- help me save as much as we can, Kiwis.

There is a good chance it is this low because from a legal perspective perhaps he hasn't stated what his intentions were, only that he was taken in on suspicion of possessing a loaded firearm and possessing a high-capacity magazine.

Where does it say that he had fake VIP passes and that he said he wanted to kill the President?
(*) Here, this article explains a bit more. It does mention the passes and the alleged intent. (Link)
A third assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump was thwarted on Saturday after a Las Vegas man was arrested with weapons and fake passes about a half mile from Trump’s campaign rally in Coachella Valley, Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco said Sunday.
Deputies assigned to Trump’s rally said the driver, Vem Miller, rolled up in a black SUV to a checkpoint at the intersection of Avenue 52 and Celebration Drive around 5 p.m. He was found to be in illegal possession of a shotgun, loaded handgun, and a high-capacity magazine, the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department said in a news release.
Bianco told the Southern California News Group on Sunday that he believes Miller — who he said is a member of a right–leaning anti-government group — planned to kill Trump and that deputies thwarted the plan when Miller presented fake VIP and press passes at a checkpoint.
“They were different enough to cause the deputies alarm,” Bianco said. “We probably stopped another assassination attempt.”
Miller is a registered Republican who holds a master’s degree from UCLA, and who ran for state assembly in Nevada in 2022.
Bianco said Miller considers himself a so-called sovereign citizen, a group of people who do not believe they are subject to any government statutes unless they consent to them.
The Sheriff’s Department set up what Bianco called a double perimeter that controlled access within a half mile of the rally. Residents were allowed through, but they were watched to make sure they drove to their neighborhoods and not toward the rally.
Miller was caught at one of those checkpoints.
Bianco said that the last he heard, Miller had not made any statements to investigators.
The sheriff said he is in disbelief.
“I thought it’s not going to happen in Riverside County. We don’t have the same sicko issues and violent protests like they have in Los Angeles. We’re better than that. Go figure.”
Bianco said U.S. Secret Service officials said his department went “above and beyond” in their efforts to protect Trump and others who attended the rally.
“I am extremely proud of the mental and physical effort our deputies showed all day,” said Bianco, who noted high temperatures in the desert area were near 100 degrees.
Bianco also said the FBI is questioning another man after bomb-detecting dogs “repeatedly” identified him as possibly dangerous. That man was not allowed in the rally, Bianco said.
Miller was booked at the John J. Benoit Detention Center for possessing a loaded firearm and high-capacity magazine, authorities said.
He was released Saturday on $5,000 bail and is scheduled to appear at the Indio Larson Justice Center on Jan. 2, 2025, according to the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department inmate database.
The Secret Service put out a brief statement saying it was aware of the arrest. “The incident did not impact protective operations. The Secret Service extends its gratitude to the deputies and local partners who assisted in safeguarding last night’s events,” the agency said.
In September, 58-year-old Ryan Wesley Routh was charged with attempting to assassinate Trump as the former president played golf. U.S. Secret Service agents found Routh with a high-powered rifle on Sept. 15 outside Trump International Golf Club in Palm Beach. Agents spotted the barrel of his weapon in the bushes and fired at him before he fled.
On July 13, 2024, at a rally near Butler, Pennsylvania, Matthew Crooks shot at Trump with an AR-15–style rifle from a nearby rooftop as Trump gave a campaign speech. Crooks hit Trump’s ear with a shot and killed one attendee while critically injuring two others before Crooks was killed by Secret Service counter-sniper agents.
