If they own infowars, they’ll come into possession of a lot of information about the fans, won’t they? Mail them targeted deprogramming material.

Yeah, but unfortunately with how charged everything is if he gets anything he will claim political persecution and try to be a martyr
He’s doing that now. He will do it if he is sentenced, and ALSO if he doesn’t get jail time. Appeasing him gets you exactly nothing.
( his campaign has claimed they already raised 55m since the conviction).
His campaign claims a lot of things, none of them true. It would be surprising if this turned out to be the first time they weren’t lying.
It’s why I think he didn’t get really anything bad when he violated the gag order so much.
I think the judge was going overboard to give every benefit of the doubt to Trump so there would be no basis for appeal. I hope that’s the case.
There’s an old saying: “Graphene is so versatile it can do anything except leave the laboratory”.
“We hear you, American consumer! You say you want a sub-$40k, small, basic EV. So here’s another luxury SUV/pickup truck/yacht crossover starting at $90,000.”
But what is the value of having those interviews? Platforming somebody who is just going to tell flat out lies, and not calling them out, doesn’t inform the viewer of anything other than that watching that news outlet is a waste of time.
They’ve been doing that at least since the GWB years, which is why I stopped listening to them then.
What logistics? You put him in a jail. Works for other people. “What about secret service protection?” They can go there with him. They can go home at night though. If you worry about his safety, put him in his own personal prison on an abandoned military base. It worked for Rudolph Hess.
It’s only hard if you make it hard.
You’d think that, but since the 80s they’ve managed to do an enormous amount of damage and drag the country to the brink of ruin just by being obstructionist and crazy. Seems like a strategy, and a fairly effective one.
A “final solution” if you will.
Can we just skip to the end part of the Ceaucescu story?
You did. I jumped the gun after reading the first paragraph. Sorry.
The only reason he’s gotten away with it so far is that people thought he was rich. But since it’s all loans, it turns out he’s not. As a result, he’s starting to have to play by the normal people rules, and that’s going to suck for him.
Third of all, this is a state judgement, not a federal one. So he can’t pardon himself.
They are currently fighting the war. And winning it, because we keep pretending they aren’t. When they go low and we go high, they get what they want and fascism gets further up the beach.
And no they aren’t going to vote for Trump. They’d likely not vote at all. And yes they know what that means but on the scale of genocide vs genocide it’s not like it can get worse for them.
Anybody who thinks in any situation “it can’t get worse” has absolutely no concept of history.
“Yeah, he’s a convicted felon, but we can’t put him in jail because that would inconvenience the Secret Service.”
Nope. Sorry it’s a burden for them, but they can figure it out. Make a prison out of the brig on an abandoned military base in the middle of nowhere with him as the only prisoner. It worked for Rudolph Hess.
Yeah, good luck with that, Nikki. They’re stupid, yes, but they’re very good at racism and misogyny.
So it all comes down to “do Republicans want to win badly enough that they can suppress their racism and misogyny and vote for a woman of color”. Republicans like winning, but NEVER bet against racism and misogyny with that crew.
Also, a large fraction of the base WILL vote for Trump, and only Trump, whether he’s on the ballot or not, which hurts Haley. And there’s no evidence that the R’s have won over a single new voter since 2020, when they lost.
This all turns on how badly Biden does with HIS base, and that is currently pretty worrying. Democratic voters like unproductive petulance at least as much as Republican voters like racism and misogyny.
“The media has wildly succeeded in its effort to misinform many voters” would be more correct. This has been a relentless, deliberate strategy. If they had just been incompetent it would not be this lopsidedly wrong.
