How is the Republican Party buried? The most probable outcome (betting markets) is Republicans take House, Senate, and Presidency in the fall.
VP pick coming today.

Would the GOP convention accept RFK Jr., generally viewed as a liberal except for the kooky anti-vaxx stuff?
My guess is the cult goes along with the cult leader in whatever he wants. There's not many Republicans in Milwaukee, just Trumplicans.

Demographics.
Each succeeding generation of voters buys less and less of the social issue stances of the GOP, wrt women, blacks, gays, LGBTQ, environment, climate change, etc. edit: But will the younger people ever start voting in big numbers? usually that happens in your 30s.

Kooky anti vax stuff was very liberal until like 3 years ago.
Interesting. This moronic POV is turning off Zoomer males as we speak.
Keep going.
Nonsense. Liberals are losing men. Even young men. Hispanics are becoming more conservative and will only continue to be more conservative as they become wealthier. Not to mention 50 years of fiscal irresponsibility is catching up to US and people are feeling the consequences of it now. School choice has passed in numerous states, which is another net negative for Liberals. And Bitcoin will force Governments to reign in spending. The world is decentralizing.
I don't think Harris can run along side both? Is this something new?
If the GOP were to get sensible on social issues and the environment, I would likely return to it. Fiscally, I'm there. No on religion in schools though.
Polls show former President Donald Trump is ascendant with the youngest bloc of the electorate, even leading President Joe Biden in some surveys, as less-engaged young voters spurn Biden. Meanwhile, Biden is stronger with seniors than he was four years ago, even as his personal image is significantly diminished since he was elected last time.

Sensible on social issues? From the woke cult? Leave campus. Dems are insane on social shit. Dems need to get sensible and abandon the tranny everything is racist nonsense
This is dishonest crap.
Trump is quite literally running on a “leave it to the states” platform for abortion. He is the first president to take office supporting gay marriage.
You are completely full of shit.
He lives in a tiny bubble and doesn’t have the bandwidth to think on his own. He’s a moron
Even if they agree with him on many issues, especially social and environmental issues, a 20-something person doesn't generally want an 80-something person to be president. Another reason to move on from Joe, excite that sleepy block of potential but (for now) very unlikely voters. Plus many 20-somethings see the drill-baby-drill / set new world records for fossil fuel production Biden administration as same ole/ same ole. As my daughter says "Trump lite".
I’ll add liberals are in much worse shape when it comes to Demographics. They’re a hodgepodge of groups who are decreasing or small minorities. It’s white single women and white college educated males. Both decreasing. lGBQT+ is a small group, as are blacks who are staying about the same, but will most likely start to decrease as Hispanics become a larger percentage of the population.
Also, as blacks become less of a focus to liberals, they’re less likely to vote for them. Democrats have hidden behind “but Trump” the past decade and lost the middle/working classes. They need a major shift or they’ll struggle when Trump is gone. And they’re not exactly setting the world on fire going up against Trump. How bad can a party be if they lose to Trump 2 out of 3 elections? Pretty f#cking bad is the answer.

Which is why it was a given. The Trump Administration V2 will be filled with the worst possible people putting the worst face on the party.
From an intellect and speaking ability standpoint he is the best pick. But he does not broaden Trumps appeal what so ever. If VP’s actually do that anyway….
The debate against Kamala should be fun. That dumb bitch will get her clock cleaned.
Yeah, that's a terrible idea -- but it's not all that surprising. Rent/price controls have always been terrible ideas. But there's a reason they still keep popping their heads up.
Hopefully it's just election year red meat. That's my guess.

Price fixing generally leads to allocation of supply, shortages, and supply chain breakdowns. often driving offshoring production(jobs,tax revenues).
I feel the same way about this asinine policy as I do about Trump’s policy on tariffs. No sober economists would support either one.
Different reasons, though. Years ago, some liberals were anti-vax due to misinformation about vaccines causing autism (thanks, Jenny McCarthy). Whereas, conservatives took a libertarian stance and became anti-vax mainly because government was requiring it (don’t tell me what to do!). Of course, those lines blurred once social media started spreading misinformation about the Covid vaccine.
Home schooling is another phenomenon that's moved from primarily wealthy white liberals to middle class conservatives.
Home schooling, as far as I remember growing up, was limited to ultra-religious kooks and ultra-left "lets live in a commune!" types, with not much in the middle and none of it much economics-driven
What?
Wealthy white liberals 'home schooling'...
Are you thinking of private schools?
Blind loyalty to the nutcase and dumb as shit becuse this is where his career goes to die.
You have data for that? In my experience, homeschooling prior to COVID was done for primarily religious reasons.
This is true. I hear more about parents going the home school route instead of private school if they are moving from a public school. The demographic is correct also. Home school is a lot different now, there are a lot of resources and social activities with other home schoolers.
Naw, I'm just shooting from the hip based on my personal observations. Even at that, those doing it for religious reasons still are the wealthier demo. That's why we're now seeing a big push for state payments/vouchers for home schoolers. Looks like @El Drado has seen the same thing.
I'm just going off people I've known who do it. None are wealthy. If they were, they could afford to send them to a parochial school.
