    People forget that Trump wasn’t a Republican until like 2012. The only reason he ran Republican was that someone convinced him that was the only way he’d ever win. Remember, winning at all costs is literally the only thing Donald Trump cares about.

      Honestly, he’s never been a Democrat or a Republican. Even now, if you go by what the Republican party was before he took it over. He’s always been a Trumpist, nothing more and nothing less. He cares solely, without exception, for one thing: Donald Trump.

          Will he actually, though? Or just say he will?

          I think the only way that could happen is if it just happened to be something he wanted.

            I read that the project 2025 people were ecstatic since he delivered on like 75% (or more?) of their policy goals for his first term. Roe v Wade wasn’t an accident, for example

            He’s for sale to the highest bidder. He’ll do anything they want as long as there’s a big enough check attached.

              I don’t believe that’s why he’s doing what he’s doing. Unless it’s like a sick compulsion or something. He’s a 78 year old billionaire. Why whore yourself for money when you’ve already got enough to last you a lifetime? I think the power and whatever is more of a motivator.

                Idk, ask that to every billionaire CEO giving themselves bigger and bigger raises. I agree that power is the main motivator, but I feel like the money and power go hand in hand.

                He’s a deeply malignant narcissist. He just likes being called president trump, and is jealous of Putin and Kim Jong Un because they permanently rule an entire country.

                Trump can’t stand anyone having something he doesn’t, so trying to take over the US is his next step to being “the best” and in what he perceives to be the big boys club.

                Narcisstic people are motivated by some petty shit. It’s mind boggling but true. Just look at the shit Elon Musk has been pulling and how petty it is.

            Words can mean more than one thing, and people assume you’re intelligent enough to be able to put them in context and figure out which one you mean. If I say “The general gave an order”, you assume I don’t mean at Burger King. If you want hard definitions with one meaning only, perhaps I can recommend this?

          It would be more effective, the spreading of misery, if you went to the local pool and took a large shit in it. You could ruin several people’s day instead of like 3

            There’s a good chance for an open convention. Pelosi is pushing for one.

                THAT is certainly true. We agree there.
                But in this case, she’s pushing for a good thing, so I have no trouble agreeing with her.

          After all this pushing to call Biden too old, the 70 year old rambling old man is gonna look really bad to their own base when he’s up against someone who isn’t even old enough to retire.

            That’s possible.
            I’d hope that’ll be the case.
            She might be able to be coached away from these rambling nonsensical answers.
            We’ll see.

            Sure. Mispeaking a word would be normal.

            But what she was trying to do was talk about something she doesn’t understand, and wasn’t preped on. Rather than saying some version of “I don’t know”, she starts making up whole sentences of nonsense.

            That’s why I think she could probably be coached out of it. It’s not a brain fart, it’s a choice to try not to look stupid. But it backfires.

      That’s not entirely true, his turn to republicans was a little sooner. Trump was the “Long Form Birth Certificate” guy all during the Obama years.
