It looks like it'll just be a battle between Trump and DeSantis.
Of the two, DeSantis is the scarier option, and I'm filled with doom at the prospect of Trump. |

I've been listening to the Behind the Bastards series on Vince McMahon and going down the YouTube rabbit hole of pro wrestling videos, so I'm thinking now would be a good time for Obama to rejuvenate his career with the ultimate heel turn.

So Mike Pence has announced his run for president. I don't think this is a good look for his evangelical base...

Re: Starship Troopers phrase "Service guarantees Citizenship. Would you like to know more?...
The quote was most definitely in the movie. (In one of their "fake" commercials / Propaganda pieces)

Chris Christie just officially threw his hat in, for whatever differences anyone thinks that makes.

I counted at least five POW/MIA patches and pins just on the front, as noted "Army National Guard", "We support our troops" (with yellow embordered ribbon), A just Blue Ribbon to show support for child abuse and prevention. An "Indiana" patch with the state torch banner symbol.
One is just so dark it almost looks like it's blacked out. Must be his 99.99999... percenter patch. |

2015 just called. They want their naive belief that conservative voters have any sense of shame back. No, the reason why I think it won’t be a good look for the conservatives in the evangelical base is because he looks like he’s just stepped out of a gay club from the 1970s.

A piece in today's NY Times has Christie and his 15% favorability rating solely focused on taking out Trump. Maybe he can rally the other also-rans to pile on if there is to be any movement of the needle. I don't think the insult-nickname shtick will work as well this round. But WTF do I know.

Chris Christie called Trump 'a lonely, self-consumed, self-serving mirror hog."
Hmmmm... and he supported him knowing he was 'a lonely, self-consumed, self-serving mirror hog." |
