      @jon-nyc I saw that earlier. Funny how, now with the mid-terms behind us, so many are realizing that Trump was an anvil around the neck of the GOP.

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

            My “I told you so” as early as 2020 November 10:

            https://nodebb.the-new-coffee-room.club/topic/5124/the-mandate/21?_=1668071553517

            @Axtremus said in The Mandate:

            You just wait until 2024. I think you will see that (1) the GOP will not nominate Trump again, and (2) the GOP's nominee will not even want Trump or any of the Trump kids to campaign with him/her. Go ahead and bookmark this prediction, it's fairly clear and its accuracy can be easily decided in 2024.

              No precience there. You were saying that before he was elected in 2016.

              This is the first time we've been able to have a clear view of how he affects elections post-presidency.

                Using only public information available to all, I saw something years before you begin to see, and there is no prescience? Haha!

                    The republican candidate will in no way effect the democrat behavior.

                    democrats lied about Mr. Bush just like they lied about Mr. Trump.

                    They will tell the same lies about the next candidate.

                    The Bush lies were no better or worse that the Trump lies.

                    And their media machine will verify that every lie is the truth.

                      I was listening to a conversation between Newt Gingrich and Jordan Peterson a few days ago, which Jolly had posted a link to. Gingrich noted that conservatives across the globe in developed nations have to fight against left-leaning media and popular culture lying about them. Any election the right ever wins, is won in opposition to that imbalanced playing field. So by policy and objective effect, you have to have 60% or more of a majority on the conservative side, just to eke out a 51% victory. Because your side will be relentlessly lied about.

                      I thought that was a succinct and adequate way of putting things. He wasn't even angry about it, it just was what it was.

                      The "both sides are equal" crowd are imagining how much the right-leaning media lies too, but it's the entire culture, and especially younger people, which defines the playing field. Not media outlets followed mostly by older conservatives. There are psychological reasons for this. Of course young people want to watch the world change in front of their eyes, due to input from their own generation. That's the opposite of conservativism.

                      Education is extremely important.

                        This almost belongs in one of the humor threads.
