14 thoughts on “Congressman Jim Banks makes Senate run official

  1. Love this comment from Lubbers: “At some point genuine conservatives will have to go to war with these bully goons to save us from baby-Trumps like Jim Banks.” We need much, much more of this kind of bold and blunt commentary from “genuine conservatives” such as Mitch Daniels and Senator Young. It’s very easy to get the feeling that there are few “genuine conservatives” out there because most of them, such as Senator Young, have been incredibly silent while the crazies like Trump and Banks have been the face of the Republican Party.

    1. The “genuine conservatives” are popular among you all because they capitulate 95% of the time to the left. What exactly are they conserving? They’re utterly horrible at shrinking budgets. They spend just as drunkenly as the left.

      You are either a leftist yourself or a supporter of the uniparty. Which is basically the same thing.

      Happy to be one of the “crazies”, who sees through the Ukrainian boondoggle that apparently makes me a traitor even though I’m more anti-war than 95% of the mainstream left, who love the enrichment of the military industrial complex as much as the warmongering neo-cons.

    2. Ukrainian boondoggle? The US has shown the Russian military to be frauds the mere cost of 85 billion dollars and with no involvement from US troops. And, it’s caused the EU to take their own security seriously and not just count on the US.

      Heck, Putin himself has snapped and it’s been raining oligarchs about as much as it’s been raining in California.

      Don’t think that’s made the Chinese think twice about invading Taiwan and what they might face?

      Win win win all around. Unless, of course, you’re one of those foreign policy neophytes aka Russian sympathizers who thinks you can appease a dictator. Dictators must be crushed and exterminated, especially ones who start wars. Putin can have peace when he gets out of Ukraine and Crimea at this point.

      I’m continually amazed your desire to live in a facist state with an authoritarian leader. Do you think you will get double helping of potato soup or something?

  2. Jim Banks is not a conservative, at least not in the mold of Ronald Reagan (who Banks likely considers a RINO). No, he is an extremist on the far-right fringe of what use to be the Republican Party. His views, especially on social issues, appeal to the fascist nature of people who don’t respect the norms of American politics, and who certainly don’t accept compromise as a core principle of democracy.

  3. This is all we need. Another UltraMAGA now representing all of Indiana. Mr. Banks, I pray that you never represent more than the limited constituency of like minded loon birds who elected you to the house. You are not a Republican, you are a member of a cult.

    1. Mitch Daniels is in line to be the next Big 10 Commissioner. A much better job than Senator.

    2. What about Mitch Daniels makes you think he could be the commissioner that Jim Delaney or Kevin Warren were?

      Mitch doesn’t strike me as the wartime commissioner that’s needed at this moment in college sports.
