Trump 2024 — The second term

[HKFaninCarmel]

You're just making an argument for repealing the 19th amendment.

I'll go a step further and assert that nobody likes her for her positions. It's the identity politics game of voting for genetalia that should be left out of politics.

Her abortion position polled favorably among republican women. She's not exactly Bernie Sanders on the ideology chart, although some here would make you think so.

Something something Trump with prostitutes pissing on a bed and eating chicken nuggets. Something something russians under every bed.

The left is as conspiratorial, if not more so.

That's not a counterpoint. That already is a part of ClownWorld™. They believe **** that's not supported. They propose a world that no one can live in. At least the right wing clown world mostly doesn't force impractical policies.

What does your wife think of abolishing anonymous free speech online? Legitimately one of the biggest issues brought to the table for the election cycle thanks to Haley's unhinged position.

She's not a socialist exactly if that's what you're saying. She is a chamber-o-commerce neocon grifter. And that's the complaint. It includes here hatred for free speech, because Blackrock hates free speech.

I don't think that's a huge issue for most women voters. Generally it's security above freedom. There are many prominent exceptions of strong, outspoken women who value free speech above security.

Which is why the 19th amendment should be repealed, as it is inviting behavior 180 degrees in opposition to this country's foundational values.

Who'dah thunk that Haley would make Trump palatable enough for some to consider voting for now if she was on the ticket.

Said like I have but one site I post from.

It is frequently linked in this thread... once upon a time, GwP scooped some good stuff... now it's bascially PeePee Memo grade stuff.

Please name one unimpeachable content site. A site that has NEVER been wrong about the news they report. I’ll wait…

Unimpeachable? None that I know of... but Gateway Pundit is basically a right-wing version of The Huffington Post... Pravda meet Tass.

The DOJ can appoint a special prosecutor but they must do so in a constitutional manner, this does not seem to meet that standard.

“the Constitution does not give the President or the heads of executive departments the power to create any offices and to appoint any officers they deem appropriate. Instead, it requires that Congress first create alloffices to which federal officers, supe-rior or inferior, can be appointed.”

Fitzgerald was already senate confirmed when was was appointed…

First, the AG doesn't create a "new office" within the government. The Special Counsel is appointed under the AG him/herself to assist in investigations that might draw the appearance of conflict-of-interest.

Second, the Special Counsel (legitimately) operates only within the confines of the AG's commissioning memo. If the SC determines there might be other threads of investigation, the legitimate course is to seek that domain from the AG in amending the memo.

Finally, US Code DOES allow the Attorney General to appoint Special Attorneys: 28 U.S. Code § 543 - Special Attorneys and those special attorneys report to and can be removed by the AG. These are NOT constitutional "officers" nominated by the President and confirmed by the Senate... the law allows the AG to directly appoint them.

If there is an appearance of conflict-of-interest if the AG handles the investigation, then how would there not be a conflict of interest if someone appointed by the AG investigated it? That makes zero sense.

I thought the online speech thing was dumb. I get the goal, but the idea is stupid. My wife wouldn't care.

My hatred of ESG is quite high. I work in energy and loathe the impact. I’ve talked to Indiana legislators about it. Black rock should be isolated as much as possible.

Don't you know that you are supposed to set all of that aside because she appeals to moderates?

Unlikely now that SCOTUS declined to hear the case, so for now it is still academic…

So the "bombshell" fizzled?

It is currently undecided but may come up later. So still a big deal…

Could be. My only point is that the use of the term "bombshell" is overused, and it very rarely pans out.

Ya, I'm not touching that one.

It's an odd couple. It makes sense for both I guess. If it helps Trump's ticket, it's only for 4 years. And then it makes sense for Haley, she has to put up with Trump for 4 years, and then she has a giant advantage to win the presidency in 2028.

And therein lies the problem. The uniparty (gawd I hate that term) wins again. She might as well be an establishment Democrat.

Well, since came into the picture, I started using them.

I put therm in my ears.
