When Michelle Obama said when Trump fans go low then us DeSantis fans go high.

Not this shite again

I guess you just ignored the whole thread that some random user made that proved this wasn't true at all? As I recall, the OP of that thread didn't get ONE "Ronbot" to claim the 2020 election wasn't fricky. It was a total beatdown of this false talking point that gets repeated.


That group of diehard Trump worshippers here are as unhinged as he is. They've resorted to just making shite up and pretending it's true and/or proven. "Rob is establishment! It's been proven!" "Ronbots said they won't vote for Trump!" "Ronbots said there was no cheating in 2020" and on and on

It's a little disturbing to be honest. It's verging on The People's Temple type shite

Are you talking about Trump fans or not, because my comment was specific to Trumpkins/Patriots

I don't think he has the mental capacity to be intellectually dishonest or honest. He's just an NPC repeating stuff he's told.

You've said this, but if a Republican wins then clearly they don't have as much control over the outcome as you're claiming.

IF a Republican other than Trump wins, then "they" will just have rigged it to give the appearance of fairness and propriety.

That's the standard CT response to that rhetoric.

Depends on the candidate. They would let a controlled Republican win.

Read this a couple of times back to yourself.

Then read it some more.

You don't understand how hilarious this is, do you?

I'm sorry, this just isn't based in reality. Yeah, there's some truth in the uniparty label, but if you think the DNC powers would be just as happy with a Mitt Romney as they would be a Gavin Newsome, then I don't know what to tell you. They may both hate Trump but they're serious about power.

It is because people are short-sided. They have allowed the media to tell them that Trump has no chance to win....It may be true, but because of this they are trying to scare off people from supporting Trump.

The narrative is that people need to support Desantis or else they will get the same result with Biden winning.

I think most of Desantis's supporters voted for Trump, Liked Trump, but they are consumed with not losing again.

I am not in that camp....I am voting for Trump if he loses he loses and then everyone can get more of what they voted for.

Nobody believes this absurd spin.



Its not spin, its historically documented facts

Caspar Milquetoast is a fictional character created by H. T. Webster for his comic strip The Timid Soul

The word "milquetoast" never existed until this cartoon character was born. And where did his name derive from?
quote:

The character's name is derived from a bland and fairly inoffensive food, milk toast



And that happened about 100 years ago, doofus

Uh...he's turned his best trait into being cringey.

What else does he offer, at this point? Other than repackaged leftism?

We know, mensa. The spin isn't the background the spend is pretending that Trump knew this. You expect us to believe that a guy who can't handle apostrophes or which nouns get capitalized in a tweet really meant to teach us the etymology of a word that's been an official, occurs-in-the-dictionary part of our lexicon for about a century.

Get fricked with that nonsense.

Trump creating a civil war over Desantis def caused a splinter. The Trumpkins are still in their echo chamber

Yes, and I understand you just argued against your point.

The derivation is not the same thing as the source.

Or, so you understand more clearly, "milk toast" is not the same thing as "milquetoast".
