Psychopaths only think of their own needs and how to manipulate others to obtain them. There will be plenty of lies, propaganda, and conspiracy theories spurting out his mouth. There will be nobody there to call him out. That's the way he likes it. It's his opportunity to fill his cult's minds with his twisted versions of truth
I question you Mr. Crenshaw. Do you believe in a free and fair election or do you stand by guys like Paxton, Cruz, Trump, and Abbott? Do you believe the insurrectionists and coup planners are Trump Patriots or American Patriots? Do you believe in gunning down immigrants trying to cross the border? This Veteran smells lies, propaganda, hate, and deceit from your party.
The media message about the Republican debate appears to be that it is not interesting and not important because Trump isn't participating. I probably still won't watch because watching political debates isn't my idea of a good time, but I think it will actually be better for Trump not participating. Most of the time in these situations, the dramatic element is the potential some dark horse candidate can supplant the leading candidate with some great debate moment. But if Trump is going to be knocked off the perch, it is actually more likely to be by external forces than by any of these candidates. So the head-to-head on a debate stage isn't important. What is important is the question: if Trump ends up unable to be the candidate, who will be the candidate instead? The debates help answer the question of who is the backup plan. Probably, it won't matter in the end, but the runner-up (as well as the VP pick) will be a more important issue because of the special risks Trump faces.
I will watch some of it, like you I want to see who the "alternate" will be if trump can't go.........I fully expect trump to win but there is that small chance and I want to see what the others do. It's odd because there all playing for second fiddle at this point and the majority won't go after the one person, they want to beat................maga crowd has a strong hold on these folks
I am not going to jump to conclusions but on the surface, this is F`d up..........one thing about today`s journalists, they are like a hound dog to a soup bone, if there is something there, they will find it. One day people are going to wake up and realize e-mails, texts and phone calls can be subpoenaed or gotten through the freedom of information act...............whoever came up with this law, Thank you, could you imagine if we could not access what our public officials are up to? Thats what's so ironic about what happening in Fulton, MAL and DC........no one of the left is a witness, the extremist are going to feed on each other and there downfall will be their own text messages, e-mails and phone calls along with real recorded conversations............but yea, its the darn weaponized DOJ, this is what losers call out to the base right before they know there goose is cooked
Maybe because I am a philosophy nerd but Philosophy is very valuable especailly when we see such a decline in ethic among people in law and other professions. Also knowing many people who are philosophy majors or have a lot of interest in philosophy they aren't the stereotype Leftist. Many have conservative views and if people like Crenshaw would actually read philosophy they would understand how views on individual liberty, limited government are expounded by many philosophers. This is just another example of the anti-intellectual bent that the current GOP has taken. It's also why Conservative thought leaders like George Will have become never Trumpers.
I have a bet that I've already acknowledged I will likely lose that Trump won't be the nominee but I still don't think it's a certainty. Not a single vote has yet been cast in the Republican primaries and it will still be months before one is. It's not out of the realm of possibility that Trump does falter and or another Republian candidate captures the imagination of the electorate. Also as much as is made of Biden's health Trump is only a few years younger, obese and by all accounts doesn't keep himself healthy.
It's a real thing that another candidate could emerge. However Everyone knows that the base will drive their necessary devotion to Trump, and if they are devoted to Trump there's no reason to vote for them when they could just have Trump. The issue is the base of voters, and the right wing media that feeds them a false reality daily. So when the question is asked about the potential for another candidate to emerge when votes actually start to be cast, I have to ask first what structurally is going to change in terms of the base voters, and the right wing media?? It would be like asking whether or not there could be another Houston Rocket that could be voted as the best Rocket of all time instead of Hakeem by... let's say the 2026/27 season. Like... yeah... that could happen eventually, but right now there's nothing that's going to change that much in such a short period of time that changes fan sentiment. And MAGA fans and their media are about as loyal to Trump as us Rockets fans are to Hakeem. Vivek Ramaswamay has about as much of a chance of being the Republican nominee as Jalen Green has of being voted by fans as the greatest Rocket of all time.
Im interested to see how Vivek and DeSantis perform in this type of setting. They going to double down on Trump or give some wishy washy answer? Probably the latter. Christie has done this before and I’m interested in how he is going to attack.

We have a long way to go, and a short time to get there I agree there is an entire year and who knows what can happen, trump could be in jail, or he could fall ill die to all the stress, you never know. I want to see who the gop is going to get behind in case it happens
Don't forget tuckers text messages about Trump already came out when he said he hated his guts and trump a effin loser. It just happened in 2021 lol. The right is nothing but scumbags who want fame and power. No loyalty no genuine feelings nothing
