Nobody Cares: PRS

Looking at these photos, I'm less and less concerned that Trump will run again in 2024....

My 85 year old idiot father in law is still able to destroy himself. Propped up by enablers this clown can still destroy multicellular life on Earth.

I hope he will remain a viable but pathetic candidate in 2024, just enough to split the Republican party.

I'm sure this fits perfectly into "Nobody Cares: Politics edition":
Three random, I mean, three groups have come together to form a third political party.

"Not left, not right, FORWARD!" - I think the article said was their official motto.

Centrists to launch Forward, new third US political party

Dozens of former Democrats and Republicans to form new party in bid to appeal to voters unhappy with America’s two-party system

They may not be aware that ‘Ni droite, ni gauche, francais!’ was the title of a 1996 book by Samuel Maréchal, then a leading member of the youth wing of Jean-Marie LePen's Front National.

Ah, the Knights who say Ni are a mocking the French reference. I did not make that connection until just now.

Probably one of the few ways a third party candidate could squeak in. Though more likely cause the race to be tossed to House to pick president as no one reached the needed elector count (270 or more). Senate picks VP.

Playing around CNN map, I can see a way for things to get split. We are talking about roughly two people on the level of Teddy Roosevelt, though. Leading the charge for the Progressives in 1912, he got more votes, ~4.1m, than the Republican candidate, Taft (~3.6 million).

2024: Trump, for some reason, doesn't get Republican nomination, DeSantis does. So Trump runs as a third party candidate, Golden Throne party. With the high unfavorable numbers for both Biden & Harris, someone else would need to step in.

Republican: DeSantis
Golden Throne: Trump
Democrat: Michelle Obama
Science Party: Anthony Fauci (highly unlikely)
Democrat-Socialist: AOC (what, Colbert asked her and she giggled or somethin like that).
Green: Al Gore

Was trying to think of "who to run" (on a Roosevelt level) and hit a wall. heh. Sanders would be too old. Warren might run again but also has age issue. Fauci old and unlikely to run. AOC too young. Added Al Gore just to add him (six years younger than Sanders; 1 year older than Warren).

Quite frankly, I wasn't "excited" about any of the people who ran in the primaries the last go around.

Veterans can now teach in Florida with no degree. School leaders say it 'lowers the bar'

A new Florida education program lets military veterans and their partners become teachers for five years without a bachelor's degree.

My point is that Trump looks too ill to survive to 2024.

Collins, the bill may be doomed because your party is nothing but a bunch of whiny ass titty babies.

Former Met officer in Wayne Couzens WhatsApp group blames training for ‘offensive’ texts

Ex-PC joked about raping a female colleague, court hears, but says ‘nothing in the training gives you a specific word that is offensive’

A former police officer who shared what are alleged to be “grossly offensive” messages in a WhatsApp group that included Wayne Couzens has told a court that his training failed to account for diversity and educate him in what words are offensive.

“It seems like almost every week there is a word that is offensive. How are you supposed to know what is offensive?” said Joel Borders, who had joked with other officers about raping and beating a colleague and using Tasers on people with Down’s syndrome, who he referred to as “downys”.

“There is nothing in the training that gives you a specific word that is offensive,” he said.

Giving evidence on Friday, Borders became increasingly irritated as he was questioned by legal counsel for the Crown Prosecution Service about one of his comments on the group, when he said: “I can’t wait to get on guns so I can shoot some cunt in the face!”

He compared this to when a teacher friend might joke about wanting to “strangle” a student, claiming that what he had said was “clearly a joke”.

“I don’t even know why this is here. I don’t know why you are questioning it. It’s ridiculous,” he said.

Borders also claimed that, when he posted another comment that referred to a female colleague, he didn’t believe she or others would be offended when he stated: “She will use me as an example. Lead me on then get me locked up when I rape and beat her! Sneaky bitch.”

I feel for his counsel.
