    It was just incredible how bad the messaging was for that base of voters...I mean, that is/was their core base...and Republicans basically threw them to the wolves, so to speak.

    I'd be real interested to see what Dan Patrick's job favorability rating is right now.

    I do hope they're actually paying attention to something more than FOX, with Ingraham telling her audience not to listen to the "medical deep state" Fauci and his concerns about things like the upcoming Tulsa rally.

    The deep state.......I actually got some of that deep state garbage out of a coworker. "You just don't see it," he said. "You're right, I don't. It's the Marianas Trench of Republican paranoia. It has a bottom, but I don't see it."

    I am interested to see how things shake out over July, if the polls continue or get worst Republicans will be changing their tune.

    To tell the truth it should be happening now but it seems they believe Trump has some super power or they know are betting on voter suppression and outside influence doing the job.

    if it’s not low then Idk what to say

    he’s telling the over 65 crowd to sacrifice themselves for the economy...that they’ll have to die so everyone else can live...then he tries some weak attempt at displaying empathy by saying that he’s in that over 65 crowd and would willing to make the sacrifice for his kids and some other bullsh*t like he’s not rich, could get a test easily whenever he wanted, and if he did get sick, would get access to better care than the vast majority of people he’s claiming should make that sacrifice

    He could go the route of @basketballholic and create a new account to talk basketball here and stick to fighting people on twitter about politics.

    No need for that man. I’m not going anywhere, have only one account and intend to stay that way. I don’t do Twitter to talk politics, the people in there are dumber than my rhubarb jam.

    So that means no? I though you’re so sure about your man Biden that you think I’ll skip out of a bet?

    You can back out of your bet anytime you want. It’s you that I don’t trust. You’ve been here for awhile used up all of the bandwidth with your bad takes and haven’t contributed a dime. It shows me that you’re a cheapskate. Who’s trolling now?

    lol, typical nonsense post

    u still refuse to be willing to provide proof that you’ll go through with anything

    I would question all trolls, so u are no exception

    So everyone who hasn’t given some money to CF is a cheapstake? Please. I have given money to many different things, CF just hasn’t been one of them, nor does it have to be. I mainly give to worthy GoFundMes, donate to Action Pacs like with Breonna Taylor/George Floyd/etc, and other things like giving to some local businesses/restaurants that needed help to stay afloat when everything was locked down because of Covid. I would hold up my end of the deal, but I don’t trust trolls to do the same.

    As usual, u keep ducking the question. Listen, do not go hiding, and provide proof that u actually followed through after Trump loses. That is now part of the deal. I will also do the same if Trump somehow won.

    According to RCP the lowest Trump's average approval rating as President was 40%. Trump's approval rating has stayed relatively consistent between around the mid 40%. That's terrible for a sitting President but among his own party it's been staying in the 80's. It's a difficult path for Trump to win the Presidency again but it's an even more difficult path for anti-Trump Republicans to win primaries.

    We've already seen many moderate and traditional conservatives leave but most of those people aren't running for office. That means that Trump support is even more concentrated in the party.

    Yeah they are dammed if they do dammed if they don't but somebody is gonna say **** it because Trumps numbers are so bad, if anything other than to get a gig as a talking head.
