Probably true I suppose. But he had SOME chance of being elected. I’m not sure that’s true of anyone else. I guess we’ll see and like I said, I hope I’m wrong.

Pretty low bar, but yeah. He was vilified more than he should have been for short term gains and now the Democrats have lost a seat for the long term that they can’t afford to lose.
Please, please prove me wrong West Virginia.
Wtf kind of democracy is he advocating for then?
None.
Prichard… has previously called on conservative states to “put into code that Jesus Christ is King and dedicate their state to Him”
He wants theocracy, of course.
Bankrupting America’s future by investing in it.
This is sarcasm gang. I’d put money on it.

Seriously. He doesn’t need to spin. Spin is distorting the truth but keeping it plausible, if false. He will just brazenly lie, explicitly say America would be better off without certain judges and prosecutors (violating gag orders with no real consequences), his supporters will eat it up, some of them will try to harm these people, and he’ll sit back and act surprised, disinterested, or flat out say they deserved it. We have seen it over and over.
if Azerbaijan invades actual Armenia proper, then that’s a different story.
The possibility of that happening is literally the linked article.
Nagorno-Karabakh is internationally recognized as part of Azerbaijan. Always has been.
Internationally recognized, fine. The population was about 120,000. 100,000 fled to Armenia after the attack. I’m sure they care about international lines on a map.
Always has been is categorically false. Armenia has been a country for about a thousand years before the ones who drew the lines on your map.
The “Christians being persecuted” crowd only care about Target selling shirts with rainbows.
They were actually the first Christian nation in 301 AD/CE. Not that state religion is great, but it’s an interesting history given they were sandwiched between the Romans and the Parthians at the time and were pretty much a football between the Romans and whoever was nextdoor throughout the entirety of the Roman empire. If they aligned with “nextdoor” the Romans often ignored them as long as they didn’t allow armies from nextdoor through. And when the Romans had their own puppet king over there, well, bully for them.
Not much has changed. Now they’re sandwiched between Turkey, Azerbaijan, Iran, and Georgia, with Georgia being a Russian conduit at least militarily if not politically. And Turkey and Azerbaijan are effectively one and the same with Azerbaijian having a dash of Russian influence. That’s not a great place to be if you’re a tiny country served as an appetizer to the surrounding powers.
Anyway, welcome to my TED Talk.
What could of possibly made Turkey fall in line as heavily as it has.
F16s.
Which is yet another reason why the West will hang Armenia out to dry.
Turkey already endorsed a corridor between the two countries through the south of Armenia, immediately after the attack on Artsakh, literally 4 days, while 100,000 Armenians were fleeing.
Why would Armenia open this corridor voluntarily? Azerbaijan already pinky swore Artsakh wouldn’t be attacked. Erdogan knows how this will be solved, and it won’t be pen and paper.
They also have many of the pipelines that send oil/gas from that region to Europe. Hence the hand wringing and platitudes from the West rather than actual help. Aliyev knows this.

And when Armenia had the gall to even hint at trying to break from under Russia’s thumb to the West, Aliyev got the ok from Russia to teach them a lesson.
Azerbaijian took Artsakh/Nagorno-Karabakh 8 days later, in spite of a prior Russian security agreement to prevent exactly that.
Maybe I’m misunderstanding you, but Armenians aren’t muslims, they’re majority Christian.
It’s definitely a serious push. But in true fashion, here’s how it kicked off:

They were suspended by vote, then AFTER the vote results they said they had actually already quit. It was elementary school playground levels of “nuh uh” and within a year they tried to come back.
The “.ru” stands for “Really Uberpatriots.”
If this was a law asking about policies for protecting against piracy it wouldn’t even be a headline. Protect money, fine. Protect humanity, fuck that.
Awesome. Get fucked.
It’s crazy how Biden managed to weaponize all these separate judges at once, all these separate prosecutors, and all these laws written decades before his presidency. What a conspiracy.
Or maybe these shitheels are actually breaking the law.
Last year saw the GOP take the house less than they were supposed to. That is not a win, it just felt nice. 2020 saw Biden win with an 80,000 vote swing. Things are so much closer than people seem to think. The game is rigged. The house is gerrymandered, the Senate is completely rigged in favor of less populous states, and the electoral college says “hello.” I wish I had room to be angry at people like Manchin, but I don’t. There isn’t any.
