#because it does

There’s no plausible evidence that Republican voters are opposed to acts of sedition but will begrudgingly tolerate them if that is the only option available. Trump’s Republican competitors had been parroting nearly all of his flamboyantly ridiculous policies, only to be shot down by those very voters. You can offer up a Nikki Haley, but it will go nowhere. You can lob a Ron DeSantis onstage, full of hydraulic fluid and have him mimic the same Trump mannerisms and grievances and demands for violence—not just persecution but bullet-to-the-head violence against immigrants—and they won't bite. They like Trump. They want Trump, and when presented with candidates who are not facing 91 criminal charges, not found to have committed sexual assault, not proven to be a lifelong tax and bank cheat, and not the ratbastard personification of malice, they will not bite. This is a movement premised on ending the government itself if that's what it takes to assuage paranoia about globalist cabals and plotting immigrant hoards.

telling myself it doesn’t matter how long this takes to write and that my 12 kudos will be worth it in the end.

I WAS MENTIONING TO MODIE HOW I LOVE CANONICALLY QUEER CHARACTERS AND LIKE HOW THOUGH I DO LIKE CHARACTERS THAT ARE NOT CANONICALLY QUEER LIKE WHEATLEY, KINITO, SAN- I had to stop because I got reminded of this

the way that piece of fucking shit Greyson would be right with his “you belong to him” bs if elucien happens. NEVER ladies and ladies. I truly think that miss “the boys take a backseat in my books” sjm would never have written those words if she wanted elucien to be endgame.
