Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Oh God, stop teasing me like this 🥵
Is she running for governor of GA?
If she is, it would probably be to change laws in the State of Georgia to allow a president to pardon someone of Georgia state charges.
Ding ding ding!!!
Republicans don’t give a fuck about constitution, states rights, rule of law, or even basic decency. The first thing republican governor in GA would do is to overturn that state law to pardon the Florida man.
That law is because of a time in the 1930s where a GA governor would roll up to prisons with signed pardons in hand, and sell them to inmates.
The governor can pardon state crimes
I read on lemmy that GA is one of 5 states where that's not true. They have an independent panel to approve pardons.
she may run for the border and not stop til she hits Ecuador
Good. Get fucking lost. Or better yet, go to prison for your involvement in undermining our election.
Don't threaten me with a good time
I think it's going to be Stefanik. Trump doesn't need help from the right, he needs to pull in the moderate Republicans.
And I think he's actually too racist to pick Scott. He might phrase it more like "he doesn't look straight out of Central casting" but that sort of thing is important to him.
Trump was forced to pick up Pence on this same logic. What makes you think he'd let that happen again?
He did win that election.
This presumes rationality that is not there. He's a being of pure emotion. He's not going to repeat the process that brought him a VP that ended up failing the loyalty test.
I'm still guessing he'll do a "coalition" ticket with RFK Jr. Everyone behind RFK Jr. is a Trump ally.
If she doesn't end up getting installed in another political office, some poor village in the far reaches of Dumbfuckistan will get a new idiot and wicked witch all in one. At least she'll have to split her time between those two roles and do a mediocre job at both.
Good.
