I like how they all just take pictures with unopened product, instead of, like, actual prepared dishes. You KNOW none of them are actually eating any of that.

Well at least he no longer puts the food on top of swimsuit magazines with pictures of his exes and the drawers are closed so you can't see the drug stash so this is an improvement from 2016.

How can they endorse him when he hasn't yet been endorsed by the RNC as the candidate for the party? It'd be glorious if they just turncoat on Trump and lead with Pence instead. He's so damn toxic I could see it happening.

Is it legal because he wasn't paid? Or is that shit just so far down the laundry list of corruption now it'll go ignored?

Because you aren't supposed to use a public office to promote a product.

I think we're too far gone for anything like this to even matter any more.

I don't think it's legal but as you say, it's dime a dozen for the endless Trump circus. Those who could do something about it turn a blind eye for either partisan reasons or any lack of appetite.

Mandark · « **Reply #64370 on:** July 17, 2020, 12:11:50 AM »

Threatening to withhold federal funds is a pretty popular way of implementing de facto national policies that the federal government isn't allowed to do directly (I think that's how we got 21 as the drinking age), and Feinstein talks about it like it's a sure thing it the states would comply to get the money.

But we have a decade of evidence, via the ACA Medicaid expansion, that GOP governors are more than willing to turn down federal dollars for ideological reasons. That's before we got to how Ducey, DeSantis, Kemp etc. have acted regarding the virus. It'd be an absolute cluster.

Speaking of The Party:

Quote

When U.S. Rep. Justin Amash ended his exploratory bid for the presidency, Libertarian activists held out hope he would run for re-election to his seat in the U.S. House, where he is the first and only Libertarian to serve in Congress.

It seems they are about to be disappointed.

A top Amash aide reiterated this week that the West Michigan congressman idled his congressional campaign back in February. She also indicated Amash does not intend to seek the party's nomination at the Michigan Libertarian Party's convention in Gaylord this weekend.

"He hasn't been campaigning for any office and doesn't plan to seek the nomination for any office," Amash adviser Poppy Nelson said by email.

Amash himself confirmed he isn't seeking re-election to his House seat in a tweet Thursday night.

"I love representing our community in Congress. I always will. This is my choice, but I’m still going to miss it," he wrote.

"Thank you for your trust."

wondered about this:

Quote from: https://www.cnn.com/2020/07/16/politics/republican-reaction-trump-mail-in-voting/

Republican officials throughout the country are reacting with growing alarm to President Donald Trump's attacks on mail-in ballots, saying his unsubstantiated claims of mass voting fraud are already corroding the views of GOP voters, who may ultimately choose not to vote at all if they can't make it to the polls come November.

Behind the scenes, top Republicans are urging senior Trump campaign officials to press the President to change his messaging and embrace mail-in voting, warning that the party could lose the battle for control of Congress and the White House if he doesn't change his tune, according to multiple GOP sources. Trump officials, sources said, are fully aware of the concerns.

The impact could be detrimental to the GOP up and down the ticket, according to a bevy of Republican election officials, field operatives, pollsters and lawmakers who are watching the matter closely. Every vote will count in critical battleground states, they argue, fearful that deterring GOP voters from choosing a convenient option to cast their ballots could ultimately sway the outcome of races that are decided by a couple of percentage points.

And with the coronavirus pandemic potentially bound to get worse in the fall, voting by mail is becoming an increasingly popular option since many voters may prefer not to wait in long lines at polling stations. That will leave Democrats with a major advantage if their voters send their ballots by mail while Republican voters forgo that option simply because they are listening to the concerns of the President.

In Wisconsin, a state that was central to Trump's narrow 2016 victory, Republicans were "begging our voters" to vote absentee when the pandemic first hit, said Rohn Bishop, Republican Party chairman in Fond du Lac County, where Trump will need to drive up GOP turnout in November.

"Then the President has some tweets and gets upset with mail-in balloting and we dropped the issue like a hot potato, and that's where I think we're making a mistake," Bishop said. "Our voters are running away from it. That kind of terrifies me."

Quote

Glen Bolger, a top Republican pollster, told CNN he had just surveyed a battleground state and found that three-quarters of voters who plan to vote by mail or absentee vote intend to support former Vice President Joe Biden; just 15% of mail-in voters in that survey planned to use the mail option to vote for Trump.

The CEO of Goya Foods praised Trump at a White House circus event and then Trump haters said they would boycott Goya, which triggered the Trumpists to stan Goya beans in the middle of a pandemic to own the libs.
