facialimpediment posted:Not really, he's just a chameleon zone-flooder. He has the ability to rhetorically shift between hard-right wingnut chud and slightly-creepy Republican normie Senator. He's below replacement-level and ran way behind DeWine (governor) in Ohio: 62-37 to 53-47. His approval ratings still suck even after the debate when he chameleoned into "nice person" instead of "gently caress you and your cats at home I hope I get to revoke your right to vote". I'd say Vance is the scarier one to have in charge for the simple fact that he would absolutely be the puppet. Donnie's dementia and ego means he's a difficult, if not impossible to control puppet. His ego made it hard to outright control him earlier, having to influence him instead, and his dementia makes it harder to control him by stroking his ego in just the right ways.

vance has already shown that he has zero spine with his casual flip-flop from "donald trump is hitler" to being his literal running mate, and otehrwise just completly flipping on any principle i don't think the guy's too terribly charismatic, he couldn't even manage to visit a donut shop properly. but he'd be a useful idiot, and one who wouldn't be as prone to sudden outbursts as the big orange guy

Platystemon posted:The NRA hates gun owners. Two things, Trump is the one who tried to ban stuff but was so staggeringly incompetent it was overturned by the courts and two.... Poodles are hunting dogs, that's what the loving poodle cut is for, so they go after game or track stuff in cold weather, while going balls out chasing something without their joints freezing and without overheating everywhere else. There's plenty of reasons to hate the French their dogs aren't one of them, unlike the British. Poodle hate makes me sad, the few I've met have been very friendly goofballs. As for the unloading, figures a post LaPierre NRA wouldn't know poo poo about firearms, money laundering scam that it is now.

Platystemon posted:The NRA hates gun owners. Of course the NRA wouldn't know how to unload a shotgun without cycling the rounds through the chamber. I was taught how to do that as part of weapon familiarization for armed watch in the USN. Turns out small arms instructors frown mightily if you chamber a round at the clearing barrel, so don't do that (I did not do that, but a billy-bob motherfucker did chamber a round at the clearing barrel and got ate the gently caress up for it). Turns out not knowing poo poo about firearms means you don't have bad habits to unlearn when it comes to learning how to use them in the military!

facialimpediment posted:Not really, he's just a chameleon zone-flooder. Yeah O.K. thinking thinking about it some more, are there really only fourteen governor and senators who beat him? Nah. Are there only twenty-nine? Maybe. So more like the top fifth. There are a lot of them that would wilt worse than him on stage though. He’s not legendarily bad, like Palin level. I think that Vance’s challenge to becoming the heir of MAGA will have more to do with his (paucity of) relationships within the party, and the curse that keeps any one person from staying in Trump’s orbit for long.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=88_Io_NOwuY Dunno if this is something you've seen yet but Donnie Diap used the words "We didn't have guns, the others (Capitol Police) had guns" in reference to Jan 6. Dude just self-incriminated while hunting for his rear end with both hands when answering a question.

I don't mean to go after you, it's more just because it keeps leading me to post funny links: JD Vance is more unpopular than Sarah Palin and he's still underwater by -9 as of today on a little bit higher numbers for both. Walz is still the most popular politician on either ticket, though with more undecided. Palin was obviously not ready and wilted, JD is obviously more ready and turns off anyone that listens to him talk. I can't really weigh in fully to the who's worse? discussion because that's basically asking me which leg I would prefer to have blown off.

Platystemon posted:The NRA hates gun owners. And most gun owners hate the NRA because its leadership is basically a refuge for boomer grifters and psychopaths. They haven't done anything meaningful for gun rights in a very long time besides fundraise off of fears of gun control. The best thing that could happen would be if the NRA went back to being a gun safety and training organization and left lobbying to better, less cringy groups.

Well unfortunately the NRA is just the lobbying arm for gun sales now, and stirring up racist and bigoted rhetoric boosts gun sales immensely so its never going back

I was very nervous about using the lovely beretta platform instead of God’s own SigP226 DA/SA no safety that was my daily work-carry. So I’m at the line and it’s draw, safety off…. I swept the magazine release somehow and my mag dropped *plop*. I automatically indexed in a new magazine without lowering my weapon and got tackled and yelled at for a bit by the range master. When he stopped yelling at me we talked for a bit and he let me retry the stage and I passed.

His cultists basically say "well he's made more media appearances!" when he's basically retreated to his safe spaces where he can do nothing but praise himself as a very stable genius (Fox News), ramble about Democrats as the enemy within (some rando outkick podcast), compare J6ers to the Japanese interned during World War II (Bongino), and again threaten to have CBS News's non-existent license taken away and pull 60 minutes off the air (also Bongino). A hell of a closing argument to normies just now paying attention!

I was very nervous about using the lovely beretta platform instead of God’s own SigP226 DA/SA no safety that was my daily work-carry. To be fair the Berettas and the M500s we had were both tired as gently caress, I had issues unloading an M500 at the clearing barrel more than once due to shells hanging thanks to a sticky ejector mechanism blocking dropping the shell out the side rather than chambering it. It is a bit problematic when you rack the slide back and tilt the weapon and then the shotgun is like "oh, you wanted that shell? nope, not letting it out, the only way out is through the chamber" and you and the guy on the barrel are scratching your head for a minute trying to figure out how to un-jam it without feeding the round into the chamber or making the jam worse.

I only learned that I kept getting hang fires because my giant meat thumbs were hitting the magazine release when I dropped a mag during pistol qual. I'm still mad about the time I put an entire shell, wadding included, through a target's neck during the hipfire portion of the M500 qual, and had it counted as a single hit.

Sig p226 doesnt have a safety. My finger thought it found the level and it took very little pressure for it shoot out. If I had no training or experience at all I’d have probably just looked.

Pro-Trump dark money network tied to Elon Musk behind fake pro-Harris campaign schemequote:An initiative called Progress 2028 that purports to be Kamala Harris’ liberal counter to the conservative Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025 is actually run by a dark money network supporting former President Donald Trump. quote:Some of the policies listed in Progress 2028 highlight disproven and misleading claims about Harris’ positions. Policies listed include “Empowering Undocumented Immigrants, Building Our Future” and “Expanding Medicaid to Undocumented Immigrants.” This is pretty lovely even by their standards.

Donnie's mic went out in Detroit. The replacement mix didn't work either. So he had to wander around on stage for 18 minutes, reminding everyone about the dance-off, and his campaign put this up: https://x.com/yay_yee/status/1847439489456586967?t=6MSXoYs7_e_PDqZWE1gm_w&s=19 And magically I feel better!
