After watching Trump self-destruct and Biden not campaigning at all I bet Sanders regrets not taking down Joe when he had the opportunity.

I can't take too much more of that stuff. Even jokingly. I feel like I'm surrounded by it. I live in WV and it's all over the place, not just online.

It's no longer a joke. Last time I checked about ~50 qanon guys were running for seats. I don't think tons of them will win but definitely not encouraging.

It's gonna be wild when there's a Qanon caucus in Congress and they introduce bills based off the conspiracy.

Only they're still Republicans, so it will be like HSA incentives and lower capital gains rates for mole children.

VomKriege · « **Reply #60067 on:** July 05, 2020, 02:38:31 PM »

I mentioned it in the Qanon thread but there's at least one candidate who said she endorsed QAnon that should be a shoe-in for Congress.

But like the Tea Party, I think the candidates are more the symptom than the actual issue. Republican national supervisors are still making a show of scolding in public those (limply) but you know it probably infiltrated deep into their ideological soup already.

It's hard to get an idea but I'm sure the most surface level bits (Spygate, Deep State) would poll really well. They probably do, I'll let benji bore us with the details.

The primary broke a lot of people. I'm still hurting. I personally think the country is willing to go back to something like 2010ish era of the country limping around because that's at least familiar to be people, which is a bit funny in hindsight because the question in 2016 was if 2009-2016 was good enough for people and part of the reason Trump campaigned on was that it was not.

It's very similar to the Marines logo as well as TONS of other images of an eagle resting on a globe/etc.

(Image removed from quote.)

notice how the marine corps logo shows a planet whereas the trump/nazi logo is more nationalistic? Further the marine logo the bird faces right, in nazi iconography the bird normally faces left.

Curious your thoughts on this.

I felt like Obama was hamstrung by three things. His place in history (being the first minority president, he "played it safe" more often than not because he didn't want to stain the chances of future minority candidates), the economic downturn he inherited eating up his first 100 days, 2012 political backlash to his party that left him without power in Congress.

I think people accepted this and treated him accordingly. Plus, he had "the cleanest" two-term presidency of the modern era. Granted it's a pretty low bar to clear, but he definitely cleared it.
