Official Trump Insurrection Rally 1/6/21 Fukkery, NY Probe, DOJ Probe & Georgia Probe Thread!
Im not even mad at that opinion
Sitting stuck like a duck aint the way to act when you hear the country is under attackTBF, I think Bush reacted the only way you could at that moment
If he stormed out of that classroom on camera, people would have said he wasn't good under pressure or some other wild shyt
There are very few ways someone could react to "Sir...the country is under attack...they've flown planes into the WTC"
That said, I'm not about to sit here and compare Bush to Trump...they were both objectively awful Presidents and have had huge detrimental effects on this country that are visible today and will be for the foreseeable future

I think the problem is more that MAGA and the right media pundits are usually feeding off each other. Which is what the larger GOP constituents hear.
I mean expect Fox News to start going at Biden with what sounds like Breitbart talking points after they spend a few weeks licking their wounds.

Fox has to also compete with OANN and Newsmax who loves throwing bat shyt nonsense. It's going to get really out of control.
This is a good point and def a possibility. The GOP is at an inflection point with their party.
You have the Lincoln project Romney GOP which have obviously been pushed more left post election.
More moderate/populism people who agreed with trump policies but not trump himself.
The insecure MAGA Cacs who loved trump due to his “idgaf even if I’m the president” demenor.
the full fledged white supremacists.
The Q people
then ofc the “im a down ballot republican no matter what”.
The GOP can position themselves to retain most of these groups.... but it’s going to be real hard to retain all of them.... which one do they cut loose?
Yup, I laid out three similar points in the other thread. No other president was failed in as many roles as Trump.

There has ALWAYS been a version or two of those mindsets you've listed within the GOP, hell if you listed the Democratic party you could go on for even longer, the real split is those insane MAGA fukks and everyone else.
If Trump decides to stay on code then the stories of the GOP's demise have been greatly exaggerated but definitely if he pushes back against them as revenge that could fukk things up real good
My guess is they throw the Romney types/moderates in the bushes and go hard right to keep the other groups.
That type of group is least popular with Republicans so it would be more efficient to appeal to the rest of the base. After all Trump was more successful than Romney.

That's a lot to take in at the time, people tend to exaggerate that like he sat there for hours or something, he was almost immediately moved to some wild bunker somewhere with his family and WH officialsSitting stuck like a duck aint the way to act when you hear the country is under attack

I still can't put Trump ahead of Buchanan on Johnson. Johnson is definitely # on WOAT. The damage that he did to black people and the nation at large lasted 100 years.
The National Review sucks, but it had time today.
I checked out the Book thats linked
Might give it a lil look
