I think it would probably require someone who can make Allan Lichtman turn the charisma key in his/her favor. Lichtman does not give Trump the charisma key because he notes that Trump's intense appeal applies only to a narrow slice of the electorate (the people attracted by his intense appeal are almost exclusively right-wingers).

Its pretty frightening that a majority of this forum support physical assault of people that are annoying.

No, I believe in bodily freedom, but I also wouldn't associate with someone still masking in 2024 as to me that person is neurotic.

Like: His personality. His outreach to Latino Americans. I think he is a good and decent man, just one that wasn't suited to the Presidency.

Dislike: Most of his policies, especially his foreign policy.

Of course he will, knowing him. A 'President Trump' is about as guaranteed to do something impeachment-worthy as a bear is to sh**t in the woods.  It is in his DNA because for pretty much his entire life, he has been led to believe (and has long since internalized) that the rule of law that applies to you and me apparently does not apply to him.  And his supporters clearly want to keep it that way. 

This is deranged. Putin presides over a weak country with a declining native population. Losing several European (let alone American) major cities with millions of people dead to avoid "appeasing him" would be a far greater cost than the gain, particularly from a national perspective.

If we appease in Ukraine, we will have shown that Ukraine made a horrible mistake by giving up their nukes and signing the Budapest Memorandum, and other countries will be sure not to repeat Ukraine's mistake.

If we let Vietnam fall to the Communists, we will have shown the Communists we are weak and the rest of Asia will fall.

Maybe
But i don't think trump going to choose his daughter, he probably choose some other woman.

You can make the same argument polls don’t matter because they aren’t actually real like election results and donation numbers.

Polls have way greater predictive value than past results and especially fundraising figures, especially in areas with a large number of high-quality polls (virtually all the battleground states down the stretch + the national polls).

As for the re-alignment narrative, I’m not sure why you don’t buy into it. I’ve made posts detailing why I think it’s real, but I guess only time will tell.

That was a great line by Rep. Crockett! More people need to clap back at MTG.

Anyway, those of who are groaning about "decorum," "this is embarrassing," and whatnot need to stop.

The UK pretty much has weekly roast sessions in their parliament that are worse than this. Also, in certain other countries, some of their politicians regularly get into scuffles and fights in their houses of parliament. So some word-jabbing is nothing.

Last I checked however, we are not the UK. The UK also has a King; shall we be like them in that regard too?

MTG was wrong for stirring the pot, Crockett was wrong for equally immature response. Both should be punished. What is the point of having standards, rules, or any guidelines if they are not going to be followed? Saying both are wrong doesn't make you a bad person or somehow make you a supporter of MTG. It's okay to sometimes drop partisan blinders and say someone you like is wrong.

I don't think that one guy yelled "MISTER PRESIDENT" enough times tbh
