I get what he’s saying, probably because of my upbringing. But he’s saying that she made conservatives look a little right wing (normal Trump) and little like nut jobs (crazy). So, hes just going an extremely round about, redundant way to say she made them look crazy. Folks in the south view conservatives as old money republicans. Even some of the newer southern dynasties have caught flak for not being hard right enough. That’s why Trump was so big in those areas. They viewed him as someone who was challenging the people they felt had left them behind; take notes dems. They truly believe he’s doing something different. They’re just ignorant enough and stubborn enough to not see he’s destroying the country.

What is interesting to me is, he’s losing support with old money republicans. I’m still a part of a lot of inner circles, and these folks are done. A lot of them want to go back to talking about just money and leaving all social issues in the dust and use it as negotiating tools for more money. But younger republicans, aforementioned in the article, tend to care more about those social issues, while also believing trump has their back with the economy; ignorant.

A lot of fractures are happening in state houses across the South. You have younger, very hard-line republicans at war with the older, more manageable republicans. I saw one meeting where a speaker said, “I swear if you bring up abortion one more time, I’m shooting you on the floor. You won your little battle, we’re gonna only discuss the budget now.” I think the primaries are gonna go hard this year lol

Immediate response of, “I don’t know” was telling.

that’s the thing that blows my mind, is we can’t even talk about solar as a supplemental energy solution. the administration in america has been dumb since it’s founding. except my boy teddy, I’d die for Teddy.

exactly why I believe it tbh

the s&p is specifically being propped up by overvalued companies. there’s a lot of money being thrown at the market and not a lot of material to show for it.

slowly approaching officers…they tased him.

ACAB

These articles make me giggle. everyone who knows economics knows we’re in a recession barreling toward a depression. It just doesn’t feel like it because five tech companies are propping up the market.

this is pretty much me, although I do listen to music outside of the house, but that’s through my iPod.

Yeah, I remember Amazon the book store. I still had my mom take me to the local bookstores, cause I knew them and the people, so I was comfortable lol. I remember when Prime launched. I don’t think anyone was expecting that, at the time. Free 2-day shipping on so many products was insane. And all for $89?/yr? Especially, when everywhere else online charged anywhere from $5-10. It was truly the Walmart of the online world. They ate shipping costs, which killed them, and put hurt their competition until AWS became such a powerhouse and they had a monopoly on online marketplaces.

I’m curious as to why? CD’s are the ultimate form of audio purity, in my opinion. I’ve got a kickass stereo set-up with a CD and vinyl hook up; also a cassette, but she don’t work so good no more. I always rip my CD’s to FLAC so I can put it on my iPod.
