So, after tarrifs were declared an illegal tax and the money now needing to be refunded, I guess they’ll just give it to the businesses who will have a nice boon in revenue, won’t reduce the prices, and we all can just eat shit?

MTG announced that she’s retiring from Congress.
My guess is that she sees the shitstorm coming and wants to be able to run as an “outsider” in 2028.
She’s “retiring” 3 days after her pension kicks in.
The more I think about it, the more it looks like she’s a really smart politician who is good at playing dumb. She made herself a household name with the ‘Jewish space lasers’ and now she’s ducking out before the AI bubble bursts. She’ll write a book, go on tour, and be rested and ready in 2028.
Historical note. After Nixon lost in 1960, he tried to run for the senate. After he lost that race everyone wrote him off. Except Nixon was smart. He went out and busted his hump helping every GOP candidate he could find. By the time 1968 rolled around he had a giant following in the Party. I expect she’ll be doing something similar.
She is also saving herself from the inevitable Epstein fallout. Every day the files aren’t released is another voter that potentially moves left or farther right. Get out before the files are released, let the sitting members take the heat, then run for senate or president in ‘28
If she fights Trump now she loses a lot of votes. If she steps away ‘gracefully’ she is in a much better position.
“I trusted Donald Trump, and I was mistaken. But MAGA is bigger than any one man.”
Good riddance. Hopefully now I’ll be less confused when reading news about Magic: The Gathering
Took me a second.
There’s a very real chance she believed all the shit she said about “the far left” being just as bad, until she pissed off the far right
Think of how they bitch and moan about peaceful protestors, and then the whiplash of pissing off the right and getting legitimate death threats.
She’s still a piece of shit, but that’s a hell of a wake up call.
If you think her retirement has any more to do with the fact that she just passed the threshold for a congressional pension, I have several bridges on sale you’re going to want to see.
Imagining that this leathery leopard has changed her spots only suggests that she is developing an effective crypsis strategy, and cloaking her predatory nature to you.
You’re imagining people imaging that though…
No is saying she’s a better person, I explicitly said the opposite:
How did you read my comment and reach the conclusion you did?
Sorry, wasn’t meant to be specific to you at all!
“If any hypothetical person thinks her retirement…” Is probably the wording I should have used.
The word you were looking for is “anyone”
Another classic case of Republican fuck everyone until it happens to me!!!
The Republican mascot should be a stick figure pulling up a ladder.
