veritas,

Exactly right. As President, the buck stopped with Trump and as indicated the deficit skyrocketed under Trump. COVID is no excuse. He listened to the wrong people. It’s that simple. Furthermore, the fact that he has never apologized for the death jab demonstrates that he is not prepared to deal with reality.

veritas,

Any impeachment of Biden should stand on it’s own merits. A disturbing aspect of this article is that it considers the impeachment of Biden primarily as revenge for what has been done to Trump. An unending cycle of revenge between the parties is hardly a viable path forward for the USA.

veritas,

I’m all for it but I’ll be surprised if the House does anything. The decades long history of the Republican Party is that it never loses an opportunity to lose an opportunity. Jim Jordan seems to be in the Trey Gowdy mode. Both can put on a good show to rile up the base but it turns out to be nothing more than entertainment. Substantive follow through is completely lacking. Just look at what happened concerning the recent budget dispute. It was entertaining for a while but in the end the Republicans essentially completely surrendered as they always do. What did the Republicans do when they had the Presidency, Senate, and House in 2017-2018? They failed to repeal Obamacare as they promised and revealed that they don’t really give a darn about fiscal responsibility by not reducing overall spending at all and allowing the deficit to skyrocket with an unpaid-for tax cut. The present day Republican Party is filled with grifters. I’ve seen it up close. I was a member of the Pennsylvania State Republican Committee from 2018-2022.

veritas,

How do you define the Precinct Strategy? I tend to think personnel is policy so it all depends on the values of the people implementing the strategy.

veritas,

Ok. I looked at it. I am still of the same opinion. It all comes down to the values of the people involved. I’ve been a member of both my county committee and my state committee and I am not impressed by either. In most cases they just go along with whatever is proposed by leadership. Also, often office holders are also members of the committees which reduces the chances that the committees will function as effective checks on the office holders. Often the highest interest of committee members is self interest. There are opportunities for grift on the county level.

veritas,

Always speak the truth. Get to know the people involved. Support the right people and oppose the wrong people and constantly monitor their performance.

veritas,

Yes. Popcorn is an appropriate metaphor. Get ready for entertainment. I’ll be very surprised if there is any substantive follow through.

veritas,

I doubt he has that authority. Moreover, he has zero credibility on sexual perversion issues after flying the rainbow flag, pretending that Bruce Jenner is a woman, employing sexual perversity advocate Richard Grennel, etc. Kim Kardashian will kiss up to him and he’ll change his position.

veritas,

If Republicans nominate Trump they will lose. Desired revenge is not a winning platform.

veritas,

I can't seem to follow your community from Lemmy but I can follow it from Kbin and Mastodon. Strange.

veritas,

I just created an account and tried to upload an avatar and banner and I get an error code.
