If he wasn’t born into money, you just know he would running a scam that involves asking elderly people to pay off their grandkids’ bail with Best Buy gift cards.
But, you know, he wouldn’t want to panic people.
What a Zen comment.
OTOH…
-
The US Constitution is an increasingly irrelevant document, and
-
The protections of the US Constitution have never really been available to the left, anyway.
Tries to cozy-up to QAnon types, sees the reaction in media, does fast bootlegger reverse and burns rubber in a cloud of excuses.
I wonder how much of that reaction is because he wants to play at going back to the moderate Republican shtick later on in 2024? I think we will see astounding acts of contortion to distance himself from this horror show the moment Trump is out of the way. I wonder if the Republican base will back-peddle, too, or if the politicians will be stuck with this rabid mob of conspiracy addicts they’ve created?
Daines campaign spokesperson Julia Doyle said the first-term senator does not know the Borlands nor “does he know what QAnon even is.”
It enrages me that they can just lie like that. He obviously knows. But even if he didn’t: If a politician in the US doesn’t know what QAnon is by now they are not fit to do their job.
They were stuck with the Tea Party, but they served a purpose for the Koch Bro & Friends network, and were easy to control by dialing down the money. QAnon is more like an unbalanced chainsaw without a grab bar. I bet that there’s a lot of work in the shadows by various people trying to herd those cats. (Buying out Jim Watkins and 8kun would be a start.)
eta: Interesting. Jim Watkins supposedly created a PAC, but the fingerprints of the head lawyer for Project Veritas, and other groups, are all over it. (He promises secrecy for clients, but he’s really not very good at it. heh.)
It figures that the Project Veritas ratfuckers would jump into QAnon.
Both. The shitshow they have created will turn on itself as Trumpian true believers and the grifters go to war over the ashes of the republican party, and the Lincoln project people clutch their pearls in horror, since they were certain that once Trump was gone everything would go back to “normal.”
I just really think it’s out of control now, far beyond what even the evil assholes wanted. I know they wanted the election season to seem like the apocalypse, but I don’t think they can put this toothpaste back into the tube. I’m afraid they rocked the boat to scare us, but so hard they’ve tipped it over.
It’s the makeup connection isn’t it.
Ace Who?
“He joins a small number of musical figures to voice their support for Trump, including Ted Nugent, Kid Rock, Pat Boone, Richie Furay, Aaron Lewis and Kanye West.”
Okay, got it, got it… reality show, Ace Frehley, Ted Nugent, Kid Rock, Pat Boone, Richie Furay, Aaron Lewis and Kanye West, locked in 10x10 room, no furniture, fed only adderall and raw meat, allowed only Four Loko to drink.
They are wearing loincloths, sprayed with luminous paint, filmed in blacklight darkness. The way to win is… there is no winner. There is no door.
ACTION
Whatever happens in that room, we all win.
They are riding the tiger. You can’t hang on forever, and you can’t get off.
What? A member of kiss is an asshole? Why I never… /s
And that’s true… I mean, granted, Trump and his cronies are the ones that are frightened.
Accountability is a scary thing. If you’ve looted and sacked a nation for four years and realize you might not win, and worse, the person who might win said they had no problems with you being prosecuted for your offenses, I’d say there’s a great deal of fear.
