Trump’s campaign apparatus trails Biden’s team significantly in fundraising, but those around Trump are confident that the gap will be closed. The former president, these people say, has been privately working the party’s biggest donors in a way they haven’t seen before.

“The money will be there,” one person told CNN. “He’s never been more focused or effective on that front than he is right now.”

Just posting this for posterity. I have a feeling it will be read with a thoroughly different meaning a year from now.

After almost 22 years of blissful marriage and passionate romance, nutting in your wife remains one of my favorite pastimes.

Which is honestly a most republican of desires.

Reminds me of Inglourious Basterds

Honestly, you can barely see the gentle glow of the flames from way up here.

I do not miss reddit.

Truth and well said.

Look we can’t start blaming individual countries - even if Poland has unusually gassy citizens, I just don’t think they are a large enough population to make that kind of difference.

It literally never occurred to me that it was just a lame joke. Maybe I’m projecting since I never read resumes.

Nobody really reads resumes anymore. And I know this because mine has had “secretly banksy” on it, right between advanced Excel and intermediate SQL, for the last 7 years.

Not a single person has mentioned it, which is doubly strange because I definitely have been asked, “When you say advanced Excel; advanced in what way?” - which, I’ll grant you, is the obvious question anytime someone puts that on their resume.

Precisely.

Before the artist confirmed it was his piece of work, Islington councillor Flora Williamson said it would be “incredible” to have a Banksy artwork “right in the middle of social housing and one of the poorest parts of the borough”.

Spray-on community revitalization and economic development

In a statement to The Inquirer on Saturday, the Faith and Liberty Discovery Center cited the pandemic and “structural limitations” as some of the reasons for the closing. A spokesperson for the American Bible Society would not elaborate on the closing beyond that statement.

Or just, yknow, the ineffable will of God.

Or in this case, a skillset.

Same exact thing happened to me except instead of adamantium it was my virginity and instead of becoming super-powerful I became a dad.

Good thing he didn’t go through with it. Those things hit a ton of bugs and shit.

I’m not sure I agree with this. It seems wholly plausible that another politician could easily pick up the mantle and use the Trumpian playbook. I get the cult of personality thing, but I’m not convinced the danger goes away with Trump’s last wretched heartbeat.

I enjoyed this for what it is: therapeutic fan fiction.

Moving on, we should not underestimate:

• How absolutely craven most republican lawmakers are

• How well, for better or worse, Trump communicates to boomers who we already know are active at the ballot box

• how deeply bought in the Christian right/Christian nationalists are

Campaign math doesn’t work like it did. Just because Trump is dismantling seemingly durable elements of the GOP establishment, that doesn’t mean he’s dismantling his capability to win.

Vote like it’s the last election ever. I’ll leave the rest unsaid.

Aka perfect fodder for wasting time on Lemmy.
