Sure, but Vance is getting credited as this based, return to tradition nationalist and it’s all clearly such bullshite, much like Obama being hope and change.

Yeah probably, at least to some extent.

But why is Vance in the deep weeds on this stuff/integralism/Christian nationalism when it's an outlier group of the far right and not even really necessary/helpful to pick up the MAGA crowd?

Ultimately, I think the idea that Vance is a very smart guy who is playing a part has plenty of legs, but to what end on this part?

I'll be the counterpoint on this - my experiences with black male UPS/FedEx drivers are almost universally good. Those dudes hustle and are usually quite pleasant.

The reality is that our options will be:

Rubio - Won't run if Vance does so probably moot. Probably an effective leader/manager. Good enough ideologically. But lots of traditional GOP (deep state, if you will) ties.

DeSantis - Elite manager. Strong ideologically. One of the few state leaders to start talking about how far conservatives should go in attracting business/transplants who will not uphold the state's values. But I don't think he's well positioned to challenge this time, and if he did, he'd have to take on a ton of bad (ie, GOPe) baggage to do it.

Vance - Perhaps the weakest managerial resume. Unclear leadership abilities. Extremely in the weeds on the new, postlib, nationalistic/semi-blood/soil right. Obviously that's countered (for some) by marrying an Indian woman who isn't a Christian convert.

His mentor is Peter Thiel. I mean, you could argue the guy is the enabler of the deep state. I'm not saying JD is all what Fuentes says but it is definitely something to contemplate.

That's fine

Although I'm not about to king some family-less incel guy who is probably gay and has never produced anything of interest.

There will be no one with a better argument than Vance.

I used to switch back and forth and perhaps all of my most fun phones were Android

But now I just want stuff to function. I'm Mac at work and home, passwords, Safari, Apple Pay, etc. Too far gone to branch out anymore.

I like this post just because it's like "yeah yeah so someone tried to break into my house, but setting that aside for a moment..they were weird."

Lindell may not win, nor is there a chance of any Republican winning, but Pillow Guy will force election fraud, Medicaid fraud and a LOT of BS front and center. He’ll say stuff that no other candidate would. Albeit I think we’ve left the realm of public pressure influencing corrupt State bureaucracy. Think Georgia, and they are Red but for Atlanta.

Has this made a different anywhere? Did Herschel or Dr Oz or any of the other celebrity candidates Trump ordained lose valiantly because they brought some issue to the forefront?

My real life LSU friends were pulling for Ole Miss. I don't think they want Ole Miss to win it all, but they wanted the team that Kiffin built to hold their own.

But, I'd love an LSU melt if it's on the menu, so by all means LSU, proceed.

Let me get this straight:

They lied to us about Vietnam
Lied to us about JFK
Lied to us about Iraq
Lied to us about 911
Lied to us about Covid
Lies to us about 2020 but telling us the truth about the moon landing

---

If we put moon landing with this list, the result is that it happened, but there is likely some significantly scenario-changing facts omitted or lied about that have the potential to upend the narrative if revealed.

I think each of the above have conspiracy-worthy elements, I don't think any of the biggest conspiracy theories for any of them are true.
