"There are too many people in Republican leadership right now who will do anything - including sell out former President Trump - to be back in the good graces of woke corporate America."
"...The narrative instructs us that the election is resolved - so shut up about it already. But the election is not resolved. Enterprising gumshoes will be sifting through the evidence, interviewing witnesses, and combing through the thickets of fraud for a long time to come. Crime will be outed, if not prosecuted. Mr Biden moves under a cloud of illegitimacy. Beyond the lingering election dispute lies all that evidence about the Bidens' money-grubbing operations in foreign lands, clear down to the money-laundering records. Think that won't bite eventually...?

More of The Big Lie, but not surprising coming from someone who
was also a promoter of the concept of a so-called "deep state" working to overthrow and thwart Trump. He endorsed Trump for re-election and declared that he intended to do "everything he can to prevent the Democrats from winning the election."
In an interview with American Conservative, Kunstler attacked gay marriage, describing it as "cultural mischief" that would further damage "a struggling institution"

And it's got racist shit to boot:
but just who was the Asian chap sitting behind the man-of-the-hour? Secret Service? Or his new minder (courtesy of Uncle Xi)?
Happens to be a Korean-American, who leads his secret service detail. But all Asians look alike I guess.
My hunch is that this is great news today out of Arizona, for the Democrats.

Maybe the Democrats will be more successful politically if Trump and his mob stay part of the GOP.

WSJ is not happy with the GOP
Good info in that piece. Clearly it is in Wall Street's best interest to have the Obama era Democrats at the helm to ease them quantitatively and to ensure that if the people get pissed at them they have another Wall Street dominated party to vote for. The US oligarchy does not like to have its facade lifted so the Trumpite's have to be controlled.

Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene repeatedly indicated support for executing prominent Democratic politicians in 2018 and 2019 before being elected to Congress, a CNN KFile review of hundreds of posts and comments from Greene's Facebook page shows.

Georgia Republicans specifically target the black vote for suppression.
“This bill is Jim Crow with a suit and tie,” said Aunna Dennis, executive director of Common Cause Georgia.
A sitting member of Congress appeared at a white nationalist convention Friday night, marking new GOP support for the racist movement. Rep. Paul Gosar (R-AZ) spoke in Orlando, Florida, at the America First Political Action conference
Gosar is the man whose 6 siblings made an ad urging people in Arizona not to vote for him. Hell of a guy. Any day now NDPP will be quoting his words on babble to prove that Trump was fraudulently cheated out of the presidency.
Nazi and white supremacist symbolism is rampant within the Republican Party. Everything from Odal rune, the number 88, birtherism, to the 'OK' white supremacist symbol is now routinely embraced by the leading lights within the party.

"The only reason you have these bills is because they lost,” said Bishop Reginald T. Jackson, who oversees all 534 A.M.E. churches in Georgia. “What makes it even more troubling than that is there is no other way you can describe this other than racism, and we just need to call it what it is.’’

Can Uncle Joe's Covid-19 Relief Bill Help the Democrats Avoid a Mid-Term Defeat?
https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/can-bidens-covid-19-relief-bill-hel...
This seems like a pertnient thread for this topic:
This is where the Delta variant comes into play. Since these politicians and public health bureaucrats have convinced the public that they alone can control the spread of a virus, they will have to find an excuse for why they once again failed to control a virus. The Delta variant, or whatever variant is the flavor of the month during our next respiratory season, will be the excuse for what overcame our “public health” defenses. Of course, the evidence behind the supposedly unprecedented dangers of this Delta variant is entirely baseless, as with almost everything else related to the scaremongering surrounding COVID Mania.And if, say, there is a harsh Influenza season in the Fall, remember that most people in these states are under the impression that CCP lockdowns and masks can stop a virus. With the same principles in play, they will demand restrictions on themselves to stop the Flu, too.
I really can't see the US locking down again this winter. All over the country, states have dropped restrictions, ended emergency orders, and banned vaccine passports. People in the United States have, by and large, moved on from the pandemic. If there are lockdowns again, it will show how stupid the Democrats are. There is simply no public appetite or tolerance for them, so if the lockdowns happen, the Democrats will certainly lose at all levels in 2022 and 2024.
Speaking of elections and lockdowns, my advice to the Recall Newsom campaign? Hold the threat of possible future lockdowns over his head.
Given your judgment on the epidemic, I'm not too concerned about your election predictions.
Biden's popularity seems to have been on a downhill projectory for some time now, which doesn't auger well for the Democrats in the mid-term elections next year. What can the Democrats do to stop the bleeding?

They can pass the full $5T spending package, which will provide tangible benefits to most American voters. There seems to be a good chance this will actually happen, with Pelosi and Schumer apparently on side.
I agree MM, but it sure has been taking a long time, which I think has been contributing to the current polling.
Democrats Will Probably Lose the Midterms. But They Don’t Have To.
BY
There’s no natural law that says the Democrats have to lose next year’s midterm elections. But if Democrats can’t fundamentally improve the quality of life for working-class voters, there’s good reason to think they will lose.
