2024 Presidential Election Thread

Just saw a few solid clips of Liz Cheney supporting Harris in Wisconsin. We should expect of barrage of anti-Cheney family posts from Ted any minute now...

Reminds me of all the schmucks like JD Vance that ripped on Trump before they bent the knee.

Very true. One key difference is that Vance, Graham, Christie, and many others went from harsh critic to opportunistic sycophants for reasons of personal aggrandizement, not principle. I don't think Cheney's negative view of Harris's politics has changed at all--her endorsement merely reflects a belief (which I share) that while Harris's positions are often bad, those are preferable to returning to office the first president in history who sought to stop the peaceful transition of power, among scores of other wrongs. She understood that taking that position would spell the end of her career. The change of heart by the Trump supporters was done to advance theirs.

Well said.

what is hilarious is that when Cheney was a representative she was more conservative than any other of those clowns. And the one thing she needed to do to stay in the GOP’s good graces, bow the knee to Trump, she wouldn’t do. And now it’s filled with RINOs.

The grift marches on:

Superintendent Ryan Walters isn’t just talking about buying Bibles for schools.

Bids opened Monday for a contract to supply the state Department of Education with 55,000 Bibles. According to the bid documents, vendors must meet certain specifications: Bibles must be the King James Version; must contain the Old and New Testaments; must include copies of the Pledge of Allegiance, Declaration of Independence, U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights; and must be bound in leather or leather-like material.

A salesperson at Mardel Christian & Education searched, and though they carry 2,900 Bibles, none fit the parameters.

But one Bible fits perfectly: Lee Greenwood’s God Bless the U.S.A. Bible, endorsed by former President Donald Trump and commonly referred to as the Trump Bible. They cost $60 each online, with Trump receiving fees for his endorsement.

Good evening sir, would you like to try our shit sandwich or our turd burger? If neither of those, can I interest you in some booger nuggets?

It is funny how Dems are falling all over themselves for the warmonger/war profiteer Dick(less) Cheney... when for 20 years they called him Satan:

Just proves that Democrats worship Satan.

This is boring. You need some new material.

"But Trump" I know. However, when we have such low expectations for candidates for the highest office, this person is touted as a revelation. Let's just fast forward to 2028 already.

What do expect for someone with an IQ of 85 (or less)? Keep in mind that the democrats didn't vote for Harris... she was appointed by the DNC.

Ted, this is a dumb talking point. Have you ever been around someone with an 85 IQ? They aren't able to do much. People underestimate just how low functioning that is. IQ smack is dumb and there are many factors that make up IQ. Harris is smart. Most likely 120 or above. She has terrible politics though and hasn't done the homework to handle stuff like this that is expected to happen. She's just not a serious person.
