Election 2024 Foreplay

Discussion in 'Politics' started by TreeFrogTrader, Feb 1, 2023.

  1. Two weeks ago I would have said and probably did say that Christie would most likely hang on to the end just for a chance to mouth off and be the warrior underdog type of thing- and he has nothing else to do anyway and it is a way to remain in the news.

    Problem for him though is that he knows that he tried that whole routine in 2016 and ended out deeply humiliated and making hostage videos and came out looking like a stockholm syndrome prisoner. Thus he has a magic number in his head, below which he knows that he needs to get out without looking like a totally humiliated clown.

    Just being low in the polls is not enough, because he is plenty willing to soldier on if he is seen as a soldier soldiering on. But he is falling below that now. Sununu endorsing Nikki was predictable. And he is polling third in the only state where he has a presence - New Hampshire. And, once again, Trump outsmarted him. There is no point in this primary where Christie is going to be tasking Trump down face to face on stage- which was his entire proised shtick.

    I would not be surprised now to see him drop out before New Hampshire while taking credit for consolidating behind Haley. It's his only way out now without it looking like both Haley and Trump cut his balls off. Also, I noticed that Haley referred to Christie "as a friend" thus signaling that she work a graceful exit for him and also give him some slob job in a Haley administration. To not drop out before NH would take that off the table for him. She would just treat him as a fat slob prick that made things more difficult when he could have done the right thing.


    Getting to be time to go over to Home Depot and get a big can of SLOB B' GONE.



    It’s Time for Chris Christie to Go

    Look, it’s a free country. And all other things being equal, former New Jersey governor Chris Christie has every right to humiliate himself with a doomed presidential campaign that is only even remotely viable in one state, New Hampshire.

    ,
    But when a campaign comes into direct conflict with its ostensible goal, a reconsideration is in order. As most of us concluded weeks if not months ago, the effect of a Christie candidacy is basically to keep a more viable non-Trump candidate, Nikki Haley, from a potential breakthrough in New Hampshire that would give her a distant chance of posing a real challenge to Donald Trump’s nomination. Since the prime directive of Christie ’24 is allegedly to save the GOP from the 45th president, it no longer makes any sense for him to stick around and take up oxygen in the very crowded room of a Granite State primary campaign.

  2. Oh gee, surprise this- OR NOT.

    The old Dem Rube Goldberg discussion of getting dems to register as republicans to vote in the primary to drive Trump out. Sheesh. Pretty desperate and stupid.

    How bout maybe you dems get a better candidate than Biden instead of trying to bring Trump down which (even though is not going to happen) would only elevate another pub candidate who would be even more likely to beat Biden.

    Dems, you are screwed - but get your games out of your system. It is part of getting past the denial stage- in the unlikely event that you ever do. You missed your window of opportunity to move Biden out. And if you do, it would now be ugly in a way that still will not help you.

    The Democrat operatives I am sure are working on perpetuating another huge election fraud like November 8, 2020. That is the easiest way to beat President Donald Trump. In honest elections, Democrats will get shellacked. Even the RINOs in Georgia and Arizona know this that is why they will cooperate with Democrats yet, again. Waiting on karma to hit these RINOs in Georgia and Arizona. It is coming. Karma always comes and collects when you least expect it.

  8. Shit-for-Brains Hunter has now been painted into a corner.

    If the DOJ does not enforce the subpoena then it is Merrick "No Man is Above the Law" Garland who will take the heat in open session about why they enforced congressional subpeonas in the Trump impeachments and the January 6 hearings and sent both Bannon and Navarro to jail for not appearing but now suddenly will not enforce congressional subpoenas related to Joe. Merrick Garland does not want to be in that hot seat, and believe me, it will be hot. He has to think long and hard about whether he wants Hunter "Juran van der Sloot" Biden to be the hill that he wants to die on in regard to his legacy.

    On the other hand if Hunter appears to testify before the closed committee, he will have to invoke the fifth. And if he invokes the fifth there then it is considered to be a waiver of the fifth if he testifies elsewhere on the same issue. So that makes it hard for him to appear openly and start trying to speak about issues that he plead the 5th on before the closed meeting. In addition it means that he will have to sit there and watch witness after witness, former partner after former partner testify against him openly and then say nothing. Otherwise he is waiving the 5th and can be compelled to testify on everything. When you waive the 5th, you are not allowed to pipe up and say what you want to say on your behalf, and then say nothing to questions you don't like. Nope. That dog don't hunt.

    Hunter had his capitol hill drive-by fun yesterday. Let him have his fun for a day. Not going to be much more fun for him for a while. Or Joe either.

    Joe Biden hack apologists out in force defending Hunter Biden and Joe Biden instead, of asking them the hard questions. One question directed at Hunter Biden, why won't you answer questions under oath?

  10. This is the republican challenger to try to replace George Santos? A black female Israeli-American former IDF paratrooper?

    Man, is this a great country or what?

    Interesting times for sure.


    The dems must be feverishly going through her social media accounts right as we speak. Of course we know the dems hate jews and blacks who are not democrats so they will be motivated to find dirt on her.
