The 2024 GQP Thread: Because Deutsche Gopher Fan ENDED the Last One

[FadeToBlack&Gold]

For funsies, on my lunch break I ran an analysis of political donations in my Zip code since 1/1. I grabbed all the data straight from the FEC's website and had ChatGPT 5 create a pivot table and do some breakdowns. AI is actually quite good at this and doesn't hallucinate when you give it proper data and well-defined prompts.

I then tallied up the overall totals from the breakdown by PAC using Excel formulas, after manually identifying which ones were R and which ones were D.


Top 10 by PAC:

ACTBLUE	12910.5​
WINRED	12867.23​
TRUMP NATIONAL COMMITTEE JFC, INC.	3637.32​
NEVER SURRENDER, INC.	2662.78​
TEAM ROGERS	2000​
PROGRESSIVE TAKEOVER	930.82​
STOP REPUBLICANS	634.52​
VAN ORDEN FOR CONGRESS	534.94​
NRCC	531.14​
REPUBLICAN NATIONAL COMMITTEE	529.05​

Top 5 by Employer (redacted specifics):

RETIRED	18556.26
NOT EMPLOYED	9288.32
***** APOSTOLIC CHURCH	3432.32
***** PROPERTIES CO.	2000
***** ELECTRIC LLC	725.18

Totals:

Donations to Republicans	25562.38​
Donations to Democrats	16470.84​

Young Republicans... worse than Old Republicans.

ICE is hitting up schools in Chicago. Seems like a good plan.

 

[Handyman]

Well that is where the criminals are! Tren de Aragua runs the schools!

 

[ScoobyDoo]

I knew there was something fishy going on at the elementary school a couple of blocks away. Good to know.

Republican officials and leaders need to stop having secret group chats that someone later exposes. This happened again, and the creepy crawlies under this particular rock were, in a word, insane. My write up and mini-rant in today’s piece, link in the replies.

It's always the ugliest fuckers on campus. Can you blame women for ignoring these guys?

I'm honestly shocked that my alma mater doesn't have a huge chapter.

Breaking: Capitol Police have been called after a Republican congressional office was just caught displaying a swastika. This comes one day after group chat messages were leaked of young GOP officials saying “I love Hitler” and calling to put Democrats in “gas chambers.”

JD Vance when people makes jokes about Charlie Kirk: "call their employer." JD Vance when Republican staffers say "I love Hitler" and fantasize about throwing political opponents in gas chambers: "that's what kids do...we're not canceling kids because they did something stupid."

I wonder if people of color regret backing Dump in 2024 with their largest levels ever.

Even women of color.

Gullibility is not a racial marker.

 

[Handyman]

Latinos polled said they regret voting for him...but would still not vote for Harris or a Dem IIRC.

So the answer is no they knew what they were doing and they are fine with most of it.

 

[bronconick]

While they're getting brutalized by ICE in cities nationwide. Smooth.

If you would do it all over again or do nothing to alter it that's not regret it's applause.

Trump called for Jack Smith to be prosecuted yesterday in the Oval Office with Patel and Bondi.

Orban didn't even have the balls to do that in Hungary.

Hell no. Those guys are pure alpha male.

AOC: And they are able to radicalize a generation of young boys in particular, away from healthy masculinity and into an insecure masculinity that requires the domination of others who are poorer, browner, darker, or a different gender than them.

Truth.

 

[St. Clown]

The last time we had something akin to what those guys want institutionalized, we called it Jim Crow. Their new iteration should be called Julian Chickenhawk.

 

[Handyman]

Think about how bad Dem Leadership is to see polling like this:



The only thing the Dems poll better than according to IPSOS is "Respect For Democracy" and that is negligible...
