Because if anyone else besides trump won the nomination, pence wasnt needed at all. You could well argue trump won over evangelicals pretty quickly with little help from pence anyway. So at most pence was just an insurance policy.

No he absolutely did not. Not everyone in Charlottesville was a "White Nationalist" or "antifa" member. Some were just regular people there to protest the destruction of a historical monument and some were just regular people there wanting it's removal. They weren't people there to incite violence or hatred of any kind. They were the peaceful protesters of the bunch. Those were precisely who Trump was referring to and he SPECIFICALLY mentioned that he WASN'T referring to the "neo-Nazis or White Nationalists". He specifically went out of his way to make that delineation. But of course you morons still run with that same tired ass gaslighting and propaganda.
Lol! You're gonna make be shoot my drink out my nose if you keep it up!
Excellent post. MAGA wants purity over all else. They prefer losing to giving an inch. They say good riddance to Pence & the 1-5% of voters who have similar views.
"Mathematicians make good economists" is a pretty ignorant comment. Some, maybe. The vast majority, no. It's not about math. It's about the availability, production, and import/export of goods while protecting your market/economy. If math alone did it, there would be no need for economists/economics.
Dead ringer, in that photo, but That's Mark Hebert who used to work for WHAS 11 in Louisville. He had football tickets next to me for a season before the remodel and things got all shaken up, super nice dude.
I think useful is a much more accurate characterization of Pence than lucky. What was he lucky about? Trump not caring for him? Now that I can see. Why do people take out insurance if not of value? Who is helping Trump with evangelicals given his ever changing abortion position?
I’d like to add the following:
Most economists you see on TV aren’t very good at economics either.
EXCUSE me. I should have said some mathematicians can make good economists. I am am so sorry. Is Weinstein an acceptable start of "some"? Most of the aspects of an economist you list wouldn't be possible w/o a good math mind.

You're in a cult that is slowly dying.
Sounds like the ramblings of a conservative White Supremacist domestic terrorist to me.
Any of you libs on here want to tell me why this needed to be kept under wraps?
Bet you have on a MAGA hat, Trump shoes, waving a Trump riding a velocitaptor flag, in your FJB shirt, reading from your Trump bible and getting a woody over your new Trump superhero cards.
Cultastic!!!
Where are the 200 staffers names? I see a list of about 30-40 names from those links you posted. Where are the 100,000 they claim? You are a fool. No cult here...just support for someone that isn't a compete idiot. How could anyone vote for someone who cannot even think for themselves or stand before an unbiased reporter to answer questions? That is someone strong enough to lead America? Craziness.You want names.... I got em.

As I have made a point of it: Trump said "both".
And you know, white nationalists don't seem to have been bothered by Trump's denouncing.

US construction spending fell .3% in July, the greatest monthly decrease since Oct 2022.
Additionally, the ISM manufacturing PMI sits at 47.2.
Its been in contraction territory 5 months in a row and 21 of the last 22 months.
Looks more and more like the Democrats parting gift to the country in November will be a recession.

Get ready for the Ol' Trump gut punch come debate night. Wonder how the Dems will scramble to try and fix that before it happens? My guess is she never hits the debate stage because they are scared sh*tless.
It depends on how you look at it. I work for a company that has a corporate Office staff of around 60 Employees, that includes Legal, real estate, Accounting, IT, Marketing, the Front Office staff, Some Operations Directors, my job and a Construction Manager who I work alongside. But the Company as a whole has upwards of 18K employees if you count all those who staff and operate our businesses at the store level. They are still under our umbrella.
Of course Trump isn't a General Contractor, he likely bids it out or has contractors he has relationships or partnerships with for his construction work. He doesn't do his Architecture in house, (I actually had a former classmate of mine who worked on a few of his smaller projects in NYC), but I'm sure he has someone or a staff of people with Design or Construction related credentials to review the projects and to act as his middleman during design and construction. I also don't know if he contracts out the operations of his resorts to third parties or if the Trump Organization acts as it's own Operators. Could be a mix of both depending on the property.
So yeah, his Corporate Office staff could be relatively small by those standards, I believe his Sons run most of the day to day at this point. but if he considers the staff at all of his properties to be part of the company, then it could be classified as a big business (generally 500 or more employees qualifies as a big business)
Idiotic take by a MAGA cult boy devoid of facts. Trumpuppet on a string.

That's how deep this sht goes. Been getting worse fast since Reagan left office. We haven't been able to vote for many truly constitutional Republicans over the past 3 decades. It needs to change if it's not too late to change it

Let me ask you this, What is wrong with being a "nationalist". notice I didn't precede the word with "white" What is wrong with simply wanting America first policies, Americans being taken care of and protected first by our policies and agendas? Being defenders of our Founding principles. What is wrong with wanting America to remain the most powerful nation in the world?
The term "white Nationalist" was another term concocted by the left to paint anyone with an America First agenda alongside white supremacists in an effort to demean a broader portion of a political base.
True "Nationalists", don't want their country invaded and overrun by anyone and everyone who just thinks it's ok to storm our border illegally. No other country on the planet allows for that. We can still be nationalist and celebrate our diversity and be accepting of those who want to migrate here LEGALLY and PROPERLY and who want to assimilate, be productive members of society and live their dreams of prosperity by fighting for American values afforded them. Just because someone harbors America first values and happens to have white skin, doesn't make them a White Supremacist.
Most politicians are self serving grifters, whether they have an R or D next to their name. Their staffers are there to perpetuate their own employment. None of them are there to serve the American people.
Trump voters are trying to upend that system. Never trumpers and Kamala voters are dead set on perpetuating the grift for themselves, or their ruling overlords they serve.

This is the MO of the Democrat Party. Leave the world worse than you left it so everyone in the next administration is too busy cleaning up the mess they left behind to actually accomplish anything. Then Trump accomplished sht anyway and in the first 2 years. They REALLY (Ds and RINOs) REALLY don't want Trump back in office, much less any success that might lead to another effective, conservative administration.
Scorched earth because the republic AND Republicans took slavery away from them

Something I've noticed about this years political ads. All on the Dem/lib side. Maybe a law has changed? Maybe I'm noticing it now but it's been this way. Seems that 'anti' ads use to be...when you were making a point about your opponent, and mentioned what they were going to do, etc, that in small print on the screen (normally just under larger print of the point you're making) would be a reference to a media article or the legislative number of a bill that had been introduced. In the Dem/lib ads in Pennsylvania against McCormick (R) they make charge after charge (prices will go up because he wants to do...fill in the blank and so forth) with no reference at all of what/when he MAY have said it.
This morning I'm seeing a bunch of new Harris ads just like it. Little snippets from her campaign speeches (I guess although some look to be staged speeches) saying that Trump will increase taxes, raise taxes on American families by $3900 a year, and a bunch of other claims. But absolutely no references at all of what/when he said it. Just pure lies.

I guess his family knows the truth about him....
They wouldn't tell the truth for nothin!!
And there it is! Biden comes out now and says Russia is trying to influnce the 2024 election.
They'll connect him to Trump and add another layer of their spineless corruption. But it's THEM trying to infuence the election.
Democrats live a totally meaningless life.
