Many will, fires will be common, and someone will build a campfire under that one, so they better make it out of concrete. This is typical MAGAT shove it in Uncle Sam's eye and grind it. However, Ohio is not that red, and I would say it was more of a swing state, or will be, Trump won it by 8 points, but it is not ingrained like in the deep south. Abortion and republican fuckups will bring them down I figure, we will see.

I was thinking about the debt ceiling, Kevin's house and Rupert Murdoch's reaction to the GOP crashing the economy down to depression levels and wiping out trillions in wealth. So, let's say the republicans crash the economy by refusing to raise the debt ceiling, would foxnews be singing a different tune than the rest of the networks. Would foxnews pin it on those who caused it? People who live off dividends might not have them or the companies they invested in would go under. It is unlikely Kevin and the rest would escape blame for the debt ceiling fiasco because even Tucker would be fucked by it and it would cost him or any other shareholder a fortune, it would fuck the entire shareholding class. I can't see Rupert and his buddies being too pleased about that, playing chicken is one thing, getting runover is another.

Ohio is populated by the same Scots/Irish English immigrants as Kentucky, West Virginia, and parts of Tn.

They should, (from a cultural and genetic stand point) and for the most part, do, have pretty much the same opinions and reactions.
There has been a brisk amount of travel between all these states, as work shifts locations, people from poorer areas migrate to where the work is, some staying, and some returning home eventually...the result is a lot more homogeneity than one would expect...

Chickens aren't known as the most brilliant of birds....neither are republicans.
It will take a few of the wealthier, more powerful ones losing some of their money(power) to motivate them to do anything. Until then, they will have faith that the complete and utter fools that they sent to represent their money are doing so.

Do you not think that republican party members should be concerned that republican leadership is keeping a fucking lowlife piece of shit drama queen like santos around for his questionable vote, instead of shitcanning him so hard it makes the sides of the dumpster bulge?

after being humiliated by trump, i don't think desantis could get the nomination if he was running unopposed...Southern male culture is very about "personal honor"...and trump just pissed on desantis like a dog marking it's territory. Now desantis looks weak, he'll definitely get less support because of it.

It's crazy how good trump is at this, he knows how to appeal/win with a certain demographic, that's for sure. I don't see it at all, when he decides to go after someone it just seems wildly ineffective to me, but clearly it works with a certain audience.

It's like watching a 4th grader trying to bully someone. As a grownup it just seems stupid and you want to be like "hey bully, you have a smear of boogers and pizza sauce on your face. Also, your parents don't love you."

Here is your contention and I'm saying you can be all three and still be loyal to the constitution and that means no religion in schools. You don't need to be an atheist to object to such a thing in public schools or libraries or any publicly funded institution.

that will last till the first bunch of non christian students get offended by it and sue the fuck out of them all the way up to the supreme court

I'm assuming you mean non-religious fanatics; Christians can object to it too it violates the law according to the constitution and legal precedent, which means the law and Christians are supposed to obey the law. A person can be a Christian or any other thing and still be loyal to the constitution and the founding ethos of the country. If you are loyal to the constitution, then you have no use for religion in public institutions. This has been fought and lost already.

But I was addressing Roger’s prediction of lawsuits based on the premise that another religion’s tenets were receiving an advantage.

I thus refute your refutation;)
