Republicans would vote for a head of lettuce if it went to church and hated trans people. It’s all you need to appeal to 95% of their voting base.
You don't even need to actually go to church, just lie that you do. They don't give a shit about actual Christian values, as long as you pretend you are.
he looks awkward even holding the damn book. its like he's allergic to it and just waiting for the camera to finish taking the shot so he can wash his hands.
Literally bet my coworker $100 just yesterday that trump won’t get back in office this term. He is still convinced Biden will be ousted.

Not so quick update:
After Trump announced that he’s running for 2024 I offered said coworker a deal. He bought a PS5 for his nephew but then found another one in stock somewhere else and it was a better package/price so he bought that one as well intending to return his original purchase.
My son has the PS5 on his Christmas wish list (he has such a great imagination ) so I offered to take the first one off my coworker’s hands, which he had paid $850 for, thinking it might be a win-win. Said coworker would save $150 and the wife and I would get to enjoy seeing our son go nuts after telling him a PS5 was a hard no based on the fact that he has hardly touched the Wii U he so desperately needed 2-3 years ago.
My coworker balked at my offer and said “you’ll see” so I guess those scouring the dark corners of the interwebs still think Trump will take over as POTUS this term.
Fast forward a few days later, my in-laws ask what our kids want for Christmas and my wife is laughing as she tells her parents that our 7 y/o son wants a PS5 to play a completely inappropriate game for kids of his age, GTA5 . They then suggest that if it could be a joint gift for all 3 of our kids, it would be convenient for them to avoid the hustle and bustle to just pay for one more expensive gift and they’d be happy to be done with it. So I’m enlisted to see if I can find a PS5.. there’s none around locally but I happened to find a London drugs on the island that had one in stock and luckily it was 5 mins away from the in-law’s condo. It was $730 in-store compared to $960 online for the same package so they jumped on it and grabbed it right away.
TL;DR: tried to save buddy $150, his stubbornness passed on the deal, we still get to crank Christmas morning up a notch and in just over a year I collect $1000

The House select committee investigating the January 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol has concluded that former President Donald Trump was ultimately responsible for the insurrection, laying out for the public and the Justice Department a trove of evidence for why he should be prosecuted for multiple crimes.
“That evidence has led to an overriding and straight-forward conclusion: the central cause of January 6th was one man, former President Donald Trump, who many others followed,” the committee writes in a summary of its final report released on Monday. “None of the events of January 6th would have happened without him.”
The summary describes in extensive detail how Trump tried to overpower, pressure and cajole anyone who wasn’t willing to help him overturn his election defeat – while knowing that many of his schemes were unlawful. His relentless arm-twisting included election administrators in key states, senior Justice Department leaders, state lawmakers, and others. The report even suggests possible witness tampering with the committee’s investigation.
The committee repeatedly uses forceful language to describe Trump’s intent: that he “purposely disseminated false allegations of fraud” in order to aid his efforts to overturn the 2020 election and to successfully solicit about $250 million in political contributions. “These false claims provoked his supporters to violence on January 6th.”
The full report, based on 1,000-plus interviews, documents collected including emails, texts, phone records and a year and a half of investigation by the nine-member bipartisan committee, will be released Wednesday, along with along with transcripts and other materials collected in the investigation.
Is nobody gonna talk about the major announcement he had, which turned out to be him selling NFTs of himself poorly photoshopped with stolen images for $99/token, being sold from an abandoned shack in the side of a road of a rural town, and how morons who blindly gave him money can't figure out to access said NFTs?
The above is a mouthful, but hilariously, every segment of it is true.

Trump and his mean tweets and strong economy. Tisk Tisk. Least Biden represents the people that hail him as their saviour. I'm heading back to the Snow thread, where religion bashing is now the hate du jour. Yup, the world needs these strong thinkers.
