That's sumthin' they have in common with Trump: RINO.

Mitt is what Republican was. Now Republican is whatever Trump is.

How does one get vetted for "in fact" if winning the Republican primary isn't sufficient?

Tw doesn't fool us, he's secretly rejoicing in that he has more time to get on Trump's list.

Griff · 02-06-2020, 06:35 AM

He'll make it, he just needs to buckle down.

Republican is now whatever Trump is; also, Democratic is now whatever Trump isn't.

Also it's high school all over again, forever. The cool kids. The drama. The cliques.

Welcome to 2,000,000 years of primate pack politics.

Exactly.

Trump is a non-idealogical state-capitalist usin' Repub machinery.

Rand Paul is a consequentialist libertarian usin' Repub machinery.

buhbuhBernie is a communist, er, democratic socislist (state socialist) usin' Dem machinery.

Mitt is a evangelical sumthin' or other usin' Repub mschinery.

Bill & Hill: a hedonist and an opportunist usin' Dem machinery.

Really, as I think on it, conventional Repub/Dem ideology really doesn't mean much for any of the elected folks. It's just labels to them.

The machinery exists to be used.

By politicians, for lobbyists.

And there is not a single federal level politician or appointee that doesn't understand this.

The important thing to take away from this acquittal is that we'll continue seeing Ivanka to relish her beauty and keep her up on her pedestal. I'd bang her if I could; but, I wouldn't want to listen to her talk...that's what her husband is for. A man has got to have his priorities. I just want to admire her from afar; or, from behind if I can find us a way to ditch the Secret Service. Some of them though, like me, are former SFers which makes planning difficult. I might need another four years to work out the details.

You can have her I like women less plastic, more human, and with better taste.
