    This picture does cut off the two candidates on the left who didn't raise their hands, and I'm not 100% Pence raised his hand in supporting Trump but don't remember. Otherwise more or less accurate.

    jfc. 12 solid years of trying to follow this fucking shitshow of a country and I just can't handle it these days.

    I think it's one of the reasons I've been following Ukraine so closely. It's a sad conflict, but it gives me a sense of hope seeing united people who genuinely give a fuck about their country and what they can achieve.

    Interesting.....

    I think I'm doing the same thing without realizing it until you mentioned it. If that's the case, it is really fucked up train of thought and speaks volumes about the state of the world right now.... .

    No Pence definitely said yes. It was Christie and Hutchinson who said no.

    No but kinda. These questions were never asked. Its paraphrased. I mean these are literally both the exact same photo.

    The exact question that was asked is:

    "If former President Trump is convicted in a court of law, would you still support him as your party's choice?"

    They cut out one guy who didn't raise his hand on the far left and also Chris Christie on the left who half-raised his hand with one finger.

    Also no one raised their hands immediately. There was a short pause and then they all went up from right to left. As if they weren't sure it was safe to say so unless their co-conspiratora did.

    So yeah, all of these people said they would support a convicted criminal for President. Including the guy that the criminal nearly had killed.

    That's the part that blows my mind the most. Trump threw Pence to the wolves and continues to do so and he would still support him for President?? Despite saying just the other day that he should never be President again? This guy flip flops like a fish out of water.

    The whole thing is a shit show. Everything about the GOP is. 8 candidates on a stage debating with not a single one of them anywhere near the leading guy who's turning himself in to jail to post bond today. It's like a circus full of clowns who aren't funny at all! I wish I knew what was going to happen over the next year but as recent history has shown us, everything about American politics is completely unpredictable.

    He’d never win an election. He’s just an unpopular guy.

    People said much worse things about Trump

    While man Republicans say they want an abortion ban, the recent voting shows that isn't true.

    What voting is that?
