Her star will really rise once she talks Perry Taylor Greene into sharing the proof Biden lost. It’s kind of funny how, in a debate with Marcus Flowers, she dropped the bomb that hubby had the proof, and if she had any credibility whatsoever at least one person would have asked her about that. Of course, nobody would possibly think he had anything, but it would be interesting to hear her explain why she said it. ---

> [@Atamasama](#): > > But not every vote going to Trump is a vote **for** Trump. Nope. Anyone is who so stupid to think that even the worst Democratic Party nominee is worse than Trump already is enthralled by that traitor and will vote for him anyway. Everyone who votes for Trump is voting for Trump. There really is no further calculus required to discern what’s happening there. ---

If those two run together; I might have to knock myself out until … I don’t know they disappear into a black hole? I can’t listen to either of them for 5 seconds without plugging my ears and yelling la la la. I also don’t think it would work because they’re both such attention seeking narcissists, it would devolve very quickly. Heh, that might be worth it. Especially if they got into a slap fight or something. ---

True that. I’m still in disbelief over his winning in 2016. It just did not seem possible. ---

Same here. A long time ago I was taken aback by Reagan winning, then W winning twice. I thought that was the bottom. ---

> [@TimfromNapa](#): > > I think Trump would find Lake threatening. I think of her as Susan Atkins to his Charles Manson. She is just as much a narcistic psychopath, but she seems a bit shrewder. Yes, this. Also she’s far more photogenic and charismatic than Marge–and possibly more so than Donald himself. He will not elevate someone who could attract the gaze of cameras that should, by rights, be focused on _him_. ---

I’m sure I’m not the first to make this observation, but from Trump’s perspective it would make him assassination-proof. That had more relevance when he stood a chance of winning, but I’m sure he still imagines he does. ---

So, TFG has given-up all pretense about legitimacy to old-school Republicans. I mean, wasn’t that the reason for selecting Mike Pence last time, to cover his odious lack of governing experience with the sheen of respectability by having a seasoned politician at his side? MTG is nuttier than he is, so this should be good. I think this ticket will solidify support from the wacko-sphere, and be a favorite among Democrats. ---

I don’t think TFG would ever share the ticket with such a blatant attention-hog. He won’t want anyone who needs the spotlight as much as he does.
