Imagine if Trump said he was going to hire a woman CoS on the trail. Then the party demands it to be a black woman. Then the media points out it is really only going to be one of three plausible people. One of them failed miserably in the primaries and has questionable qualifications, but the other two choices aren't great. So Trump has to pick the one choice...
Basically denigrating your own pick.
Ok so we've established what Biden did was a terrible communications failure.
I think you are correct that the person that tweeted the "gotcha" about handsmaid tale and Susie Wiles should've been more restrained. I don't know if anyone connected to the Trump campaign made any similar comments or not. These kind of comments serve only to undermine Susie just like Biden's comments undermined his hires.
Wiles has been a solid campaign manager. She has done a much better job keeping him reigned in. We didn't have a carousel this time or someone stupid, like Rudy running around. They got the dumb lawyer selling hats now and the serious people making decisions. This is why I'm optimisitc this time. They aren't caught by surprise this time. I think she is doing a good job and the people trying to make her gender a thing against Trump are being ridiculous.

It’s just completely blowing up the entire asinine narrative that the shitlibs have been saying about him. Does a person who’s going to usher in a Handmaid tale society really appoint a woman as the most important job in his administration?
lmao so having one person in your administration is enough to satisfy anyone's concerns. This is literally textbook identity politics.
I've lost track of which side of the argument you are truly arguing.
That you guys are doing the exact same thing that you criticized the other side for doing. Only to say "Yeah, well Biden".
As much as I’d love to disagree…I think you’re exactly right. Of course, I would add reversing the Citizens United ruling as a major part of what’s wrong with our system as well.
I tend to agree with you about the Citizens United ruling. I get where the court is coming from and don't even think they're absolutely wrong from a legal standpoint, but the results have a HUGE potential for being bad for the country. Term limits for elected officials is something we can all, regardless of party, get behind.
I definitely think voters of both parties would support it. I also think politicians of both parties would be against it. How do you get career politicians to vote against their own interests? Power is hard to give up (just ask Trump.)
I bet the only way you could get it done is by also doubling or tripling their salaries as part of the bill and making it so that everyone currently in Congress starts "fresh" on the timer. Might be worth it.
