***Official Political Discussion Thread***

Even with Trump gone Republicans won’t change much…They punted on policies and “normal” stuff before him, yo was just the perfect figure head to represent the culture war bs n progress stopping platform that the party is

They’ll either try to find a Trump copy or go for a younger version next but it’ll still be the same stuff from whoever they put in the forefront

Exactly.

People focus on national politics, but they are doing the dirty work at the local level by entrenching themselves in school boards, town governments, sheriff offices, and any other elected position they can have access to.

Haldeman, 42, was Nixon’s campaign chief of staff, a devoted political adjutant since the 1950s. In late October 1968, the two men connected on what came to be known as “the Chennault Affair.” Nixon gave Haldeman his orders: Find ways to sabotage Johnson’s plans to stage productive peace talks, so that a frustrated American electorate would turn to the Republicans as their only hope to end the war.

The gambit worked, and the Chennault Affair, named for Anna Chennault, the Republican doyenne and fundraiser who became Nixon’s back channel to the South Vietnamese government, lingered as a diplomatic and political whodunit for decades afterward.

Johnson and his aides suspected this treachery at the time, for the Americans were eavesdropping on their South Vietnamese allies—(“Hold on,” Anna was heard telling the South Vietnamese ambassador to Washington. “We are gonna win”)—but hesitated to expose it because they had no proof Nixon had personally directed, or countenanced, her actions. Historians scoured archives for evidence that Chennault was following the future president’s instructions, without much luck. Nixon steadfastly denied involvement up until his death, while his lawyers fended off efforts to obtain records from the 1968 campaign.
 
Exactly.

yah but you can't hurt the Democratic party by protesting Republicans.

The goal is to hurt democrats, and gain clout within the democratic party. it has little to do with helping Gazan's.
 
The left needs a Frank Luntz-type to make up words/phrases that are better than "sane-washing".

Republicans will just try and find a less buffoonish version of Trump if MAGA ends in a few months. Someone smart enough not to say all the stupid things Trump does while secretly believing in them.

The fact that this election could still be close is disgusting to me. It should be over already, but we have to run out and vote like we're the underdogs just to be safe.
