    Anyone who's dumb enough to think "Oh, Trump has a female running mate, that must mean he isn't a misogynist pig after all" is already voting for him.

    I think you may be overestimating the amount of attention some voters pay Trump.

    Did any of them make it to the pages of the MSM? Or even a tabloid or blog?

    I can’t find it now because Google’s gone to shit and searching by date still only gives results about her expected testimony, but it was speculated about in blogs when she got Covid right after he did and before anyone else in the White House.

    Say what you want about the term enshitification but it is fucking real.

    At some point it will cost them.

    Some point.

    I completely ignore Google.

    I’m seriously spending about 1/10 of what I used to on Amazon these days. Amazon is now where I go to find something I can’t find in a couple different stores.

    Unfortunately Amazon (AWS) makes more profit off providing the backbone for everyone else to enshitify than their other services so that won’t likely change any time soon.

    I wouldn't be surprised if there is part of Trump's base that would be resistant to voting for him if he were to pick a woman VP.

    But I'd guess that there are more people who have held their noses to vote for Trump in the past and probably more in the future. I think such nose holding was easier in 2015 and 2020 than it will be in 2024, between J6, Roe being overturned, the E. Jean Carroll verdict, the possibility of criminal convictions, and some time/space to evaluate how Trump's actual job performance was not particularly impressive.

    I suspect for a group of voters, a woman VP is enough of a veneer that it will work. Even moving the needle by 1 percent in some states could be the difference between winning a tight state and losing.

    I am pretty sure anyone voting for him is going to not vote for him because she shot a dog. This is not a group of people with any standards. OTOH if Joe Biden downed his SS biting mongrel in a gravel pit I am pretty sure the Biden Bros would tell us all how it had to be done and was a humane way to dispatch a violent dog.

    Let us face it, Trump is just having the women in his party audition for the role because it makes him feel more powerful and manly. I really do not think he is going to pick a woman as his back up. Especially not after being dragged over the coals in a civil rape trial, criminal trial about paying hush money to his mistress, and after multiple female AGs and prosecutors get done giving him the business.

    Bobo wants dead wolf pups.

    What IS it with the GOP and killing wolves? It's like fucking cannibalism, unless you buy into the Werewoof: The Apocalypse storyline where the GOP are all Wyrm-tainted lackeys out to destroy Gaia.

    Not killing unruly puppies is just a sign of the woke mind virus. I'm surprised killing small animals with high powered rifles isn't a prerequisite for membership in the GOP.

    Conflated world leader's names? That's the BS they're going with?

    My editors caught that I accidentally misspelled a character's name as Kirsty instead of Kristy ONE time in 300 pages, and they expect people to believe the above nonsense?

    Also: Sunday school? Pshaw.
    I sub for public middle school. I'm legitimately laughing at loud that she expects people to be impressed that she was tough enough to teach Sunday school.

    I am pretty sure you are not allowed to brintg members of your family unit to the gravel pit, but I could be wrong considering repugs claim post birth abortion is legal.
