Spoiler alert: the plan is to limp Trump into office, JD slaps him out with the 25th and then him a Peter Thiel measure the oval office for drapes.

Like they kept saying the Democrats were going to do.

Yet again, it's projection.

Fun anecdote: Edward Snowdon blocked me on twitter for asking him why his bff thiel (sbowden loves thiel) couldn't "rescue" him from his Russian home.

PS Brave browser is thiel's baby.

And an out of my ass educated speculation: thiel is (one part of) satoshi nakamoto.

sbowden loves thiel

Got a source for this?

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

No, Snowdon. Which is actually just Donald Trump in winter.

They'll go 2 years 1 day with Trump so Vance can try for 9 years 364 days as president.

While an insightful suggestion, this presupposes that they won't figuratively or literally throw out the constitution before that point.

Why bother? There wouldn't be any more voting in 2028.

[-] TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago

Bingo! Then the tech bros carve out their personal kingdoms.

Dunno what a Peter Thiel is... but that does seem to be the plan, and it's probably why they chose someone who hates Trump over a Trump loyalist. The former is more likely to oust the guy, the latter would just say "Oh he's playing 5D Chess, don't worry, he'll own those libs."

There is no plan.

The worst lie we tell about fascists is that they're organized.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
