@rybus I know but if he doesn't, somebody has to take up the mantle

Hawley is likely to the right of Tucker on economics

or maybe he isn't

Hawley is about the same

He did introduce a bill to force colleges to pay for 50% of student debt

if the student defaults

Tucker/Hawley the ideal ticket?

ironically Tucker holds more power now as a mainstream media influencer than he would as a senator, representative and arguably even the President

What's orban's approval rating

just because he's right on the issues doesn't mean he'd make a good president

well, I don't mean to be argumentative about this, since of course it's all just speculation about events in the future that we can't control anyway, but just for shooting the breeze

a) I agree that Tucker is more influential now than a congressman would be, probably more influential than a senator. President is another tier, though.

b) Tucker might not be a good president, but naturally the question is always vs. what alternative? I don't know if he can be an effective executive leader, but I'd rather have him give it a shot than someone who is working against our interests.

we'll cross that bridge when we get to it

if you'd told anybody in 2014 that fucking Donald Trump would become the president of the United States and kickstart a revival of nationalism across the world, they'd probably ask what drugs you were taking

we don't even know whether this coronavirus shit will cost trump the presidency

let alone what global developments will shape public opinion or what that state the republican party and american conservatism will be in by 2023 when people start competing for the next republican nomination

Yep

iowa and indiana voted for obama in 2008

for all we know trump could solidify his gains in the rust belt and keep the party viable for the next two decades

which, if republicans were smart, would herald a new paradigm

but in all likelihood it'll just give them a false confidence that the demographic winter won't reeeeeally matter long term

and give us 20 more years of boomer neocon conservatives

or biden could win, get us in a war with iran, and by then all bets are off

for now the priority should be to get Trump reelected so he can keep deranged marxists off the courts

and in the meantime push the republican party to the right by engaging in local elections and purging the neocons

all while accumulating capital and building networks of intelligent, charismatic, and redpilled young men to enter politics once boomers start dying off en-masse in the 30s

@Norik Sorry dude

Gen X will replace the boomers in the 30s

have you ever seen a population pyramid of this country

there's like 69 million more millenials than gen-xers

I’m joking dude. Gen X will always be screwed over

and they're already on the decline lol

all the rising politicians are early millenials already

What about Gen Z?
