The thing Desantis or any non-Trump republican candidate will have to worry with is keeping the coalition together. Trump energized a lot of non voters and idk the Desantis has any ability to reach those people especially if Trump decides to turn on him.
I can just imagine billybob doing a nice fist pump out the window of his ford ranger at hearing the news of this victory
Too bad the Dems suck so horribly at messaging or else maybe a lot of people would get mad over the GOP stripping the insulin part from the bill
Yes, this sucks for human beings who need this but the Republicans have kicked themselves in the nuts again. This will play like abortion and like the burnpit bill.
Burnpit was always passing and the kansas vote went with the historical public opinion on that issue. I'm not convinced anything is going to make any votes change colors in the fall.
Well, they keep stacking L’s and one report has the generic ballot as a Democratic 50 percent vs a Republican 43 percent. It was roughly 6 or 7 points in the other direction previously.
Votes won't change but R's keep doing shit to motivate people who normally would sit out a midterm, numbers are there enemy.
I'd love to see what R Senators have invested in companies that would crater if insulin prices were capped.
If you were to ask me to target one type of business to tax while leaving the others untaxed, it would be the businesses owned by private equity firms that I would target. The worst incarnation of capitalism.
I hope we have a viable candidate to get that wannabe teenager out of the senate. Joe is pretty much the best we can hope for out of West Virginia.
I often want to think that republicans and libertarians just really have such a simplistic view of the world that they can’t comprehend anything past their nose. But it’s just a fantasy. It’s difficult for me to accept that so many people are just downright evil fucks, but they are.
At the bar listening to 4 college republican types do everything but suck Desantis dick. “Everything he does I love” was a notable quote and just pretty depressing in the sense that everything is some dumbass grievance.
