“One faction of thinkers and prospective presidential candidates (such as Arkansas Sen. Tom Cotton) believes that the Trump wave is the new, permanent level of the ideological tide. They seek to practice Trump’s grievance politics minus the crazy. But they underestimate how discredited this type of politics has become because of Trump’s cruelty and deadly incompetence — and how complete the public repudiation of the GOP is likely to be in November.”

It's unlikely Republicans will abandon their policy of race and white grievance politics no matter how complete the public’s repudiation might be.

What race and white grievance do you speak of?

Steve Bannon would make for a good alternative to Mr. D. J. Trump in 2024 !

They will make great cell mates

It must suck to be a delusional democrap . . . delusional democrap !

New York is investigating Trump

He will not have that “I am the President” card

The FBI investigated Trump. The IRS investigated Trump. Mueller and his team of Nazi's investigated Trump. The House Commies investigated Trump. Nothing. WTF makes you think NYC has something those losers never found?

Not voting to keep white Democrats in power.

Not what NYS is investigating Trump for.

Seems he inflated the value of his assets when he was seeking investments and yet, those same assets had extremely low value when Trump filed his NY Tax Returns.

Now we know why Trump fights so hard to keep from releasing his tax returns

And it has nothing to do with TDS? How many people have went after Trump and lost? This is the Nazi mentality. Don't you dare win a presidential election. You are the enemy, and enemies of Big Brother pay like they do in the former Iraq, USSR, and Iran.

NY was investigating Trump before he became President. He has been stonewalling them for four years.
There will be nobody protecting him once he leaves office

ABSOLUTELY NOTHING !
In fact, I think all those folks ought to be investigated for abusing their powers, mandates and for squandering public money.

Well then if they want to wait over four years, let them. Donald Trump has never been in trouble with the law. I'm sure he hires the best in the business to prepare his taxes and do the accounting. The guy is a multi-billionaire. He doesn't need to cheat anybody out of anything. NY is a commie state, and commies abuse their power if you give it to them like the DumBama administration using federal resources to spy on a political foe.

Trump is an expert at hiding his finances

In this case he is suspected of inflating the value of his assets in reports to investors. Those same assets had a deflated value when it came to paying taxes.

I'm sure whatever the Trump team did was perfectly legal. Even if they could prove their case, all that would happen is he'd owe them tax money. Big deal. In any event, the court case won't be heard for years, and after it's settled, it will go through the appeals process for another five to ten years. Donald Trump is currently 74 years old now, and he'll be 78 when he's out of office. Good luck with that one.

race card still in the deck

‘Tom Cotton's most notable racial dog whistle was a controversial New York Times column calling for sending in federal troops to put down any violence in the racial justice protests after the murder of George Floyd.
[…]
Cotton's description of a country ablaze with violence was grossly exaggerated; he cherry picked polls to buttress the military take over of major American cities and distorted historical parallels.
[…]
Cotton's proposals - opposed by leading military leaders like former defense chief James Mattis - had a racial predicate.
[…]
[Josh] Hawley sided with President Trump in strongly opposing removing the names of Confederate generals from current military bases. His stance was in contrast to most Republican congressional leaders and prominent military figures like Gen. David Petraeus, who said replacing those names is long overdue.

The 38-year-old Missouri lawmaker charges this is an effort to "erase that part of our history," and proponents are "using their position to divide us."

Sorry, Senator, this doesn't erase any history and the most bitter division is to celebrate traitors who fought to maintain slavery.
[…]
This isn't a one-off, race-centered trope for Hawley. He also criticized the NBA for allowing professional basketball players to celebrate Black Lives Matter with racial justice pledges on their uniforms - but not slogans opposing China on human rights or supporting police.
[…]
As Republicans sort out their post-Trump posture, there are many more important matters than NBA jerseys or teaching a course on the 1619 project: the Pandemic, the economy, relations with China.

But racial issues continue to plague America; would-be successors should seek to erase Trump's stain of bigotry, not pander to it.’

As Republicans imagine the post-Trump era, race card still in the deck

But Republicans will continue to pander to Trump’s stain of bigotry – as a means to appeal to the ignorance, fear, and hate of the GOP’s base, and to deflect from the real problems facing America; problems for which Republicans have no solution.

there isn't going to BE a "post-trump" era....

trump and the republicans have learned from Putin how to steal a government and make it an authoritarian dictatorship regardless of what you choose to call it.


"voting" in the future will be rigged and staged......a performance to present an illusion.....

"the only good democrat is a dead democrat" might become a law!

I have no doubt that people who INSIST upon declaring the USA a "christian nation" and establishing their beliefs as laws of the land would have no problem denying NON-christians the right to vote.....

or even live.....

If leftists had facts, logic, and reason on your side, you wouldn't have to resort to hyper-emotional fear-mongering.

Reminiscing about the Democrats who fought to maintain slavery, are you Clayton?

Another nothing burger. His tax returns will show he makes a lot of money. They won't show anything else.

Tax returns are private information and are none of your business.

trump and the republicans have learned from Putin how to steal a government and make it an authoritarian dictatorship regardless of what you choose to call it.

The only people who used Russia to try and steal an election was Hillary and the DNC. A 32 million dollar investigation found there was no proof of Trump or the Republicans having anything to do with it.

"voting" in the future will be rigged and staged......a performance to present an illusion.....

Please. Who is fighting Voter-ID? Who fights voter purging in states? Who is fighting for mail-in voting today? It's not the Republicans.

"the only good democrat is a dead democrat" might become a law!

Republicans are not violent people. Democrats are violent people. Look at what Democrats have done and some still doing to their Democrat cities today.

I have no doubt that people who INSIST upon declaring the USA a "christian nation" and establishing their beliefs as laws of the land would have no problem denying NON-christians the right to vote.....

or even live.....

That would require a constitutional amendment, and given the fact the Republicans are the constitutionalists, that's the only way it could happen. Your boogy man is noted.

violence in the racial justice protests after the murder of George Floyd.

Fentanyl Floyd wasn’t murdered.
