in the wrong man. Trump's loyalty is a one-way road, and all roads lead to him.

Pence had the audacity to be loyal to the Constitution, and that shit doesn't fly with Trump and his cult.

Idiots all. Him, his audience.

Love me! We hate you! Love me! We hate you!

Later, Pence will describe the event as hopeful and his audience will talk about how good it all felt.

the nomination. Too many magats wanted to hang him on Jan. 6. He's ambitious, I'll say that, but he really should reaccess, save the time, money and energy and fade off into the sunset.

If mother will let him, that is.

These folks are cannabalizing themselves. Gotta love it. They should invest in property in Guyana to start their own utopia.

My suggestion?

Best thing for your reputation would be to disappear into obscurity, and then when you're ordering dinner at Applebee's and the waitress asks, "You look familiar. Are you somebody?" everyone once in a while, you can answer, "Well, actually..."

Dan Quayle, Mikey. Dan Quayle. That's the best you could ever hope or want to be in your situation.

The steal narrative has taken on a life of its own from state houses to the 74 million who voted.
The deep state (FBI setup to catch patriots) is the other narrative.
And now, so has the holy warrior narrative.

The narratives need to be our focus, not the actors.
Donors are paying the actors to reinforce the narratives.

A Faith & Freedom Coalition is meant to rally the theocratic campaign narrative.
Pence might still have the christian vote, but what Pence just got is another new tell -- pro-theocracy voters are hell bent on cancelling demoncrats.
Their fundamentalist message: were Pence a 'true theocrat' he would have stopped the Electoral College vote confirmation on Jan 6.

Furthermore, it's not nutty that Proud Boys' are now selling BLM shirts, either; it's another tell -- that donor tools are going to message anything to confound perception of good and bad in the upcoming campaigns. Flip facts. Flip history. Flip perceptions. Republican voters are being groomed as the motley coalition drinking all the flavors of haterade.
