    51 weeks a year, Presinald Trump enjoys the perfect drink, a 1972 Merlot evenly mixed with ketchup and premixed margarita, but this week, he had to content himself with champaigne

        Was Trump's pick actually worse? I don't follow electoralism horse races in states I don't live in.

          I don't know anything about these men. Looking at their wikipedias: David Perdue, Trump's pick, publicly called the 2020 election rigged and that the result should be overturned. He was also CEO of Dollar General, and was being investigated for insider trading during his time as a US senator. Brian Kemp was accused by Stacey Abrams of voter suppression in the 2018 gubernatorial election and put in place anti-mask policies when COVID kicked off. Seems like a "six of one, half a dozen of the other" type situation to me.

          Literally the only reason Trump dosen't like Kemp is that Kemp didn't steal the Georgia election for him. Otherwise they are the exact same people.

    As Matt Christman approximately said: American governance has been reduced the ability to legislate down to simply hurting the other side.

      You claim capitalism is alive and well, yet the Trumpist uprising against the Failing New York Times was the largest and most comprehensive media revolution in history, and led to almost total redistribution of content among the based
