Yes we do.

The LP is more rational than the MAGAts kind of like how Manchin, Sinema, etc. are more rational than the Progressive Caucus of the Democratic Party. :coffee:
How long have you been a member of the GoCorruption Party?
You can't see the connection? You, a liberal, appreciate the LP standing up to Trump and the MAGAts and are willing to overlook their ethical lapses isn't that different than a conservative appreciating Manchin, Sinema, etc. standing up to the ctrl-left and being able to overlook their lapses. You can stick your head in the sand and pretend that you're and other liberals are different but the similarities between both parties are striking.

“Liberal” isn’t a US political party. :coffee:

And of course there’s a connection. Not exactly a huge gap in virtue or for that matter, policy between centrist Dems and the LP. The LP is also corrupt and would probably side with Sinemanchin from a policy perspective.

My dislike for Trump goes way beyond policy.

The illiberal, pseudo-progressives are taking over the Democratic Party and there's not a huge gap between their rigid extremism and that of the MAGAts.

My dislike for Trump goes way beyond policy as well, I don't like untrustworthy hypocrites like Trump, MTG, Gaetz, Bernie, AOChe, Waters, etc.

Who’s “they”? The Lincoln Project?

I would say so. They woke up one morning to find their party sabotaged. They may be grifty, political ops and they find themselves shilling for someone like Terry McCauliff in a tightening race.

Those are fairly desperate circumstances.

Republicans should be fans of the Lincoln Party.

Nice try

The Lincoln Project claimed responsibility but two of the actual actors have been identified and they are Democrat operatives.

They are desperate.

John Bolton predicted Trump won't run for president again in 2024 because he fears being known as a loser if it doesn't work out
"I think he knows deep inside, although he will never admit it, he did lose in 2020 and very much fears losing in 2024 because if he hates anything in the world, he hates being called a loser."

Bolton added later: "I think he will talk about running incessantly until the very last moment because if he were ever to say he was not going to be a candidate, it would turn the spotlight off, and he doesn't like that either."
Bolton could be right and it's too late for Trump, he's already a loser.

Trump could just ride the “if I lose it will have been stolen” through the election. It’s not as if he thinks he lost 2020.

They'll be what, 78 and 77 years old respectively when that election happens? Vanity run amok. If the Biden disaster has shown us anything it's that we need to avoid electing anyone over 75 years old, and frankly, maybe a 70 or even a 65 year old limit as well. Are we really this devoid of options of people who aren't ancient?

I wondered why that hasn’t been discussed more in the media. She’s quietly speaking up on occasion.

Well Trump vs Biden II would be 78 vs 82..

Yes, and that would be a crapfest as well. But there's no way Biden runs again, 2024 means the worst of COVID would be over (or we would at least stop doing much about it, heck, almost where we are now). Biden would have to campaign this time and there's no way he could physically handle that considering his poor mental health now and that would be 3 years away (with 3 more years of Presidential duty wearing him down even further).

President Avocado Brain and VP Cackles the Clown were in Georgia together yesterday to push for the voting rights act. One person strangely absent was Stacey Abrams. She pulled out of the event at the last minute because of a "scheduling conflict".

So, together the sitting Pres and VP come to your state, your city, to push for the only issue you're known for while you're running to be the Governor of that state and you can't come because of a scheduling conflict? :suspicious:

Abrams has never been shy about her aspirations for the presidency before...

I don't think there's any doubt she wanted to avoid being connected to the sinking ship that is the Biden Presidency. If there was a way for Harris to not be there I'm sure she would've avoided it too.
