The Waxdoll Mike Pence seems to believe he has a political future. I guess Trumpian delusions must be contagious. But since he's trending on his desperate 'comeback tour', let's do a brief thread on the futility of this loser...
Pence thread 2/
Let's start from year 2016. Gov Mike Pence was so hated in his home state, that attempting to run for re-election, in reliably red INDIANA, Pence was headed for a loss in 2016. He was already UNELECTABLE five YEARS ago. Even in RED STATES
Pence thread 3/
Almost ANY Veep will INCREASE their chances, even Potato(e)-head Dan Quayle became more favorable during his one term in office.
Not the Waxdoll Pence. He managed to gain NO support, but turn the Trump base AGAINST himself. They tried to lynch him on Jan 6
Pence thread 4/
Pence HAS name-recognition. He will poll in the mid field for 2024 GOP primaries. He will not win the nomination.
Which is a pity, because the Lord of the Flies would be crushed in the general election, carrying all the baggage of Trump, with none of the support
PS on Pence
I have to add this. I hate the guy, but not for reasons most have. Pence worked as a lobbyist for the tobacco industry AFTER it was known they cause cancer - attempting to deny the deadly truth.
Mike Pence is literally a killer. Cruel, heartless, coldblooded asshole

As he's in the news, time for another episode of our popular series of 2024 GOP wannabes
Tonight's hero: Failed James Bond Villain, the mute Henchman The Chrischristie ("with a stare so cold, so devoid of emotion, so empty, so desolate, it was like.. Jersey")
Christie thread 2/
The Chrischristie illustrates perfectly the dilemma that the GOP is in, after the Senate GOP failed to impeach Trump after Jan 6 riots. Christie has to play both sides of the fence. He is an astute politician, he is doing this far better than most. Let's study
Christie thread 3/
The Chrischristie is definitely making obvious run for 2024 POTUS. Make no mistakes about this. He ran in 2016, was a lower-midfield contender, saw he won't win it then, dropped out early, to endorse -very strongly - the obvious winner-to-be, Trump.
So Giuliani's office was raided yesterday. This is VERY rare, requires judge to approve the raid. Usually attorney offices are pretty sacred. The feds had to convince the judge that there is evidence of a crime or crimes.
It is bad. Let's do a bit of analysis
Rudy thread 2/
We have SEEN this movie before. It is a remake. The original was called Michael Cohen (a corrupt Trump attorney)
Cohen raided Apr 2018
4 months later in jail
3 months after that convicted
13 months from raid, sent to prison May 2019
Disbarred shortly after that
Rudy thread 3/
We know now that Bill Barr had blocked the raid to Giuliani's office. That was likely happening late in 2020, definitely before Barr resigned in Dec 2020. So the feds have had the evidence to convict Giuliani for many MONTHS now. Rudy is very screwed..
So if you missed it. Yesterday the GOP was presented with the only constitutional tool, to eliminate their Frankenstein's Monster, Trump and all the cancer he brings. Instead, they voted to hand the Republican party to Trump
Mitch McTurtle caved. 43 Traitors sold their party
The political world CHANGED yesterday. No past President after his election loss has been in CONTROL of that party. Ford, Carter, Daddy Bush.. all stepped aside after their losses.
Trump was just GIVEN total control of the GOP, yesterday with that vote. It was an Abdication
Before yesterday 13 Feb 2021, the GOP had been gripped by an internal civil war, Maganutters vs sanity. Yesterday the sanity side surrendered.
That debacle we saw with Qevin McCarthy going to kiss Trump's ass in Mar-A-Lago? That now becomes the norm. A sick freak show in Florida
The Election Gods took a non-election year, 2021, and gave us THREE huge election victories. In January we got the Senate (Georgia runoffs). In February the GOP gave us 2022 and 2024. They were given the chance to disqualify Trump, decided to abdicate and gift the GOP to Trump
So because of the Impeachment vote - GOP siding with a Domestic Terrorist - we win in 2022. Mitch won't get his gavel back, and Pelosi keeps the House
BUT ALSO - regardless of how 2024 plays, the maga nutters now have the GOP and Biden wins easy re-election for 2024.
So the GOP Senators faced an internal fight, and lost. That gifts us at least the 2022 and 2024 election cycles. Depending on whether GOP decides to cut that magacancer after 2024, tells us if they have a chance going into 2026 midterms, but they may have lost 2028 POTUS too
The GOP Senators KNEW what a monster Trump is, and still voted to acquit (see McConnell, Portman). They now own that Frankenstein's monster. He will sink them. Pelosi will not impeach Trump a third time - GOP will NEVER AGAIN get to disqualify Trump. He will now destroy the party
Trump lost to Hillary by 3 million popular votes when Putin was driving millions of DEM voters to vote for Jill Stein
After USA learned who Trump is, he lost by 7 million popular votes to Biden
AFTER the November election, Trump organized January 6. That COST HIM 10% of voters
Now comes his revenge. The GOP made a grave mistake for 2022, 2024. Trump will now be liberated to go on a political revenge rampage. He will come after all his enemies.
He was STIFFLED since House Impeachment 2, by his ATTORNEYS who insisted Trump stay away from TV
The 10 in House and 7 in Senate who voted to convict Trump will be primary targets of Trump's ire
But all who failed him or spoke against him: McConnell now on TV' the words from Qevin McCarthy leaked into the press; Nikki Haley abandoning Trump etc. He will come after everybody
And WRONG political calculation by GOP. This latest Trump will be FAR more vicious. He will bombard the GOP into the 2022 midterms, primarying many viable GOP House members & Senators, bringing in unelectable Maganutters. And Trump will run himself in 2024 for Potus
