Trump backs Vance, says Iran war and Israel unpopularity hurt GOP
the minute I saw Vance and the other GOP opportunists who want to actually work in this town again pivoting to "naturally even Trump admits the Iran War is why we lost" (no the fuck he doesn't by the way), I was like, oh okay so Hegseth is fully the scapegoat. they all got together and agreed on it
Claire Willett217talked to BFF @seesawenthooz.bsky.social on the phone today for 4 hours and she pointed out the brewing White House rift between the "Wants To Be Elected By Voters Like Ever Again" caucus and the "If We Don't Lock In Perma-Fascism I Am Going To the Hague" caucus, who have very different agendas now!
Kaitlyn the Strange4He admitted on live tv that he hasn't washed his hands in 10 years, no way they like sharing a space with him, in addition to the many missteps and war crimes.
Matthew R Francis4that's a problem with having leaders with no loyalty to their followers. The buck stops ... nowhere.
John Oliver: We're going to just jump right in to our main story tonight. Will Donald Trump throw JD Vance into a volcano? We're gonna talk about why he might, how Trump will get it done, and what it means for the 2028 Election
Jared Jared Jared3John Oliver at the end of the episode: We spent the remainder of our season's budget to purchase a small volcano island in Indonesia. This is real. If you look closely you can see a sign with Vance's face and an arrow pointing into the caldera
Dr Paul Williams1So, “If they ever had a nuclear weapon….” So they didn’t, it sounds like?
Boyleg1Trump: "We talked to the DRC, they,ve got a massive volcano, biggest open lava Crater in the world, were thinking of sending JD there"
Trump on the Iran War: Nobody has died. It's not a war.
MidnightMinute30This alone should disqualify him as president. He just outright lies about the deaths of US soldiers sent to fight in his unauthorized war. I honestly don't know which is the worse possibility, that he doesn't know US soldiers have died or that he is lying about it make himself look better.
Hellishchildren16Wasn't it 23 dead US soldiers at last count?
Gidget 💜8How dare him shit all over those soldiers.

Josh2He can't help but gaslight.
It really is juicy, especially knowing how Trump appears ready to double down on everything and someone like Vance might be dragging the GOP into annihilation. Probably only Idaho, Oklahoma and the Dakotas seem impossible.
Aubrey Gilleran24And even in the Dakotas, maybe we try running Democrats instead of the independent experiment again. You never know.
Talia al Ghoul 🏳️⚧️6Slight issue with that map is that OH is technically blue and playing defense on that seat.
Barrista3Kentucky and Alabama also not happening
spooky bubba2I will always write off Florida for my sanity, but if shit doesn't change, we could see NC, SC, OH, IA, WI, KS, even LA, Blutah. heck, write off the long shots and IA/OH/KS and you're still at 59 with almost nothing tough to defend
im just a bird1Even if the GOP somehow stabilizes or improves its image (somehow) Mike Lee is set up as the peak Trump Crony in a state that moved left like crazy this year. Schmitt in Missouri & Kennedy in Louisiana are in similar pickles. IDK that I think SC or AK are as vulnerable next year but who knows.
Michael Rosenberg1Republicans would need to flip 6 seats to win the Senate. What are their realistic pickups? Ohio Pennsylvania Georgia ...? Good luck.
President Trump is set to meet Qatar's prime minister at the White House on Monday as the key mediator pushes new proposals in talks with Iran.
LZ4Obama stopped the nuclear threat.
Baja Arizona. We did it!!2You know all he's gonna do is show them the ballroom and the helipad and schmooze for more gold.
John-Sup2...Rubio's not in the loop, he wouldn't know either way...
Nicole Minet 🌊💙1Wow…. They’re really clueless aren’t they
CatGuts1"Rubio says" is no more reliable than "trump says" All BS and no actual journalism
Suzy 231Prove there was a threat. Like the weapons of mass destruction? All lies.
J.D. Vance will never become POTUS on his own. Ergo he wants Trump impeached in the House and convicted in the senate. Hence, Vance's political operation led by patrons such as Peter Thiel will soon lead the gossip and leak parade against Trump. So sit back, watch and microwave lots of popcorn.
Rip Cusslick4I've been saying this for a while. Getting drumpf out of office and assuming the presidency is his only real shot at the office.
tsindilieu.bsky.social2To make it work, JD will have to promise his collaborators preemptive pardons. Right now, everyone is beholden to Trump because they’ve committed crimes on his behalf. They’ll only turn on him if JD offers the same level of protection that they’re counting on from Daddy Trump.
Dizzygirl1I've always speculated that they'd remove him one way or another after midterms.
