The pre-Trump GOP has been memory-holed

I have seen this before.. in another country & another context. As I said once, 99% of the people living in an authoritarian state bend the knee. They bend the knee out of fear, survival, pork, interest, and/or genuine admiration for the dear deal. Bret Stephens belongs to the later category.
New York Times is full of crap on any given day, but today especially. Even the bed bugs dude chimed in.

So, according to my research Trump supporters would rather wear diapers in Russia than vote Democrats.

How many billions have Dem and GOP Administrations thrown at the SW border to "seal" the border. Oops. Why do they keep doing it? Because the political theater is serving a purpose even if the border is not sealed and people have not stopped coming.

All scoffing that this will never pass, SCOTUS would strike it down as unconstitutional. Since when did a policy proposal or a policy only have to be efficacious at achieving the stated goal to be politically effective? US immigration border policy has never been effective but serves a pol purpose.

Absolutely agree! Didnโ€™t FDR threating SCOTUS reforms get the justices in line?

This requires a new judiciary act. For that we need a majority in both houses

As I said before, *any* issue you care about, Trump would fuck it just to spite you. Environment? Fuck it Palestine? Fuck it Ukraine? Fuck it Trade? Fuck it Taxes? Fuck it Regulations? Fuck it Abortion? Fuck it You name it, heโ€™d fuck it & then laugh in your face.
If Donald Trump is re-elected, he will be in a far better position to dismantle environmental and climate rules, aided by more sympathetic judges and conservative allies.

I remember it because I was going to Turkey the week after this was announced & I was like โ€œoh no, Iโ€™m going to hear about this for 10 straight days nonstopโ€ It turned out, most Turks didnโ€™t care or even notice.

Another Black womanโ€™s mentions are now full of white women accusing her of being anti-trans because apparently there is a contingent of white people on here who will not rest easy until every Black person on this site has passed a purity test administered by anonymous posters.

The foreign policy of a Trump-Vance presidency would be wildly destabilizing: -Anti-NATO -Anti-EU -Anti-democracies -The deportation of undocumented immigrants would turn almost all the western hemisphere against us -Anti-trade + trade war with China -Pro-Putin, Orban, KJU, MbS Etc Goodness me๐Ÿ˜ฑ

One thing is crystal clear if the Trump-Vance ticket wins: Ukraine & Palestine will be absolutely fucked. Trump-Vance will gift-wrap Ukraine to Putin, & Palestine to the messianic-Zionists. Europe would probably step up & protect ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ a bit. As for the Palestinians, theyโ€™ll be totally FUBARed
Breaking news: Donald Trump has chosen Sen. J.D. Vance of Ohio as his running mate, selecting a rising star in the party and previously outspoken Trump critic who in recent years has closely aligned himself with the former president.
