GOP presidential hopeful Vivek Ramaswamy lists Senators Cruz as possible nominee for SCOTUS.


Cruz! That takes him off my what's this guy really all about list, onto my not in a million years list of unacceptable candidates.
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

Cruz being able to wreck havoc as a ultra right Supreme has to be Ted's wet dream of a lifetime.

Heh.

Fascist-totalitarian leaders present and represent themselves as the only ones who can restore the purported "historical purity" of the state, which might be seen as having been defiled by a supposed invasion of outsiders, and by the ideas and actions of liberal elites, who bring corruption and immorality to the nation's real original values—a view dramatized by Trump in his initial campaign speech, in which he referred to Mexican immigrants people that "have a lot of problems, and they're bringing those problems to us." Once large segments of the population buy into the autocrat's rhetoric, the situation is ripe for a takeover of their minds and hearts. The rise of neofascism and pseudo-populism today is connected to the spread of a false belief system activated by the autocrat's strategic, clever rhetoric, which is perceived as a language that speaks directly to everyone, unlike the talk of elites or academics.

Absolutely. His favorite thing is to ask people what they think his stance is on vaccines and they always get it wrong. He's not anti vaccine.




Sounds pretty anti vaccine to me!

No much else to do in SC.

Biden crushed Trump by six million votes, lowest on record.


No he won by 6 million ballots, not votes, there were no actual human voters behind those ballots and millions more. Trump got more votes by far than any sitting president in history and he lost to a vegetable campaigning from his basement? And people still believe that was legitimate?
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

ry and he lost to a vegetable


That's okay, because he deserved to lose to any real vegetable, or just a common rock.

Biden is not a rock yet, but he's working on it. Like when he was at the beach last weekend and the Babylon bee headline was 'corpse washes up on beach in Delaware' and there was a picture of Biden laying on the beach. He was certainly white as a corpse. And just about as active.

I did not post that. You changed my post.

This is what I posted in reference to PA union membership:

Biden crushed Trump by six million votes, despite never getting more than a few hundred people at his rallies. That was only when he enlisted the unions to send lackeys to fill the seats.

Lot of good it did them. Three years later, union membership in PA is the lowest on record.

He didn't come close to winning.
