Trump 2.0-2024?

https://www.politico.com/news/2020/07/02/tucker-carlson-2024-republicans-348334

Tucker Carlson’s audience is booming — and so is chatter that the popular Fox News host will parlay his TV perch into a run for president in 2024.

Republican strategists, conservative commentators, and former Trump campaign and administration officials are buzzing about Carlson as the next-generation leader of Donald Trump’s movement — with many believing he would be an immediate frontrunner in a Republican primary.

This is scary.  He is as racist as Trump is, but less easy to ridicule and has no record to attack him on. 
He could definitely ride the nationalist wave to the white house in 2024.

Its is scary-as he's the younger, photogenic face and polished voice of fascism, racism and Foxism. But he does have a record-- years of racist ramblings on Fox and all of it on tape. And a lot that might not play well with a somewhat more woke America. And its possible that more traditional 2024 candidates Cotton, Cruz, Rubio Pompeo, etc. may attack him as not wanting to deal with another Trump-like maverick they have little influence over. I think there will be a lot of knives out for Carlson.

Apparently 20-somethings in Tuscaloosa Alabama are organizing Covid-19 parties to see who gets infected first.

That's the most ridiculous thing I evah hoid.

They want to die, fine, play Russian roulette with a 12 gauge.

Roll Tide

Remember the monster movie Gammera?

The disco scene.

Cops run in and scream “follow us we have to go!”

“No! We wanna dance!”

Giant turtle levels building.

Oh, he has a record. He’s been ridiculed to his face everywhere he’s ever been before Fox. He’s where he is now because everyone above him has flamed out.

Didn't see that one, I saw Godzilla (with Raymond Burr) Mothra and Rodan.

Japanese Animal crackers, so to speak, of course in Alabama the tuscaloosa

but that's entirely irrelephant.

Good for Rutgers. The story in your post, Uno, was behind a paywall but I really appreciate the info as I have some history in the area.

Tucker May well be the best the GOz can do in 2024. I think they ran someone for governor out here in California last cycle, but no one remembers who. That’s where the zombie party is heading nationally as well. Tucker is just the plug ugly zombie to lead them into a final abyss where they get passed up by the green and reform party not to mention the Democratic Socialists within the Democratic caucus.

I have to go cook ribeyes & possibly crack a beer.

Keep marching.

I have to say that 4 years of Trump won't be so awful if the end result is the Dems get the WH and a unified Congress.

Winning the House in '18 was important.  It really slowed down the GOP and got Trump impeached and knocked the wind out of his hairpiece.

I think early voting begins in September in many states.

I'm not Gammera-ready.   

Hopefully no nuclear blasts will be rousing the giant turtle anytime soon.   The potential for wildfires around Rushmore today is enough to deal with.   We are in a moderate drought here,  and today is forecast hot with plenty of wind.

While I'd like to be optimistic, and fervently want a massive BLUE wave to cleanse America in 2020, the depth of the stain that Trump will  leave on the fabric of America will not be so easily washed away.

From domestic issues: race divsions, the economy, healthcare, voter suppression efforts, environmental, to foreign policy: rebuilding long-term alliances that have served us well, rechecking and assessing complicated and contentious relations with China and Russia, and showing to the world we side with democracy and not authoritarian oppressive countries. Biden and the Dems have a lot to do rebuilding the ability to effectively govern that Trump and Repubs have activelt tried to dismantle.

And they will likely meet with a lot of head-wind from Repubs. And lets not forget the a conservative SC and the hundreds of federal judges Trump and McConnell hand-picked to bend law and justice to favor the rich and powerful. 

But I'm hopeful that a Biden Admin wil be focused and smart and start fixing America step by step, ((I'd focus on the economy, jobs (infrastructure) aide to tax starved states and fixing O-care/healthcare and slapping sanctions on Russia). Let's see Repubs run against that in '22.

And i agree taking the House in '18 was critical in denying Trump the complete legal power to enact more damaging legislation. And in that regard keeping the House in '20 (which should be a lock) but also in '22 and '24 will be critical. And retaking the Senate would be huge in sctually fixing America,

IMO if we get a Biden presidency he will inherit a shit storm of problems, too numerous to discuss in depth now, that he will be tasked with fixing. And it won't be easy and may make him and a D-congress easy targets for the hypocritical republicans, who will demand quick cures for the diseases they brought to our country.

IMO the 4-years of suffering Trump-16 (and lets pray its just 4 years) will leave scars and have a damning legacy far beyond that happy day when we're cured of the Trumpdemic.
