Former President Trump holds commanding leads over potential Republican challengers in early 2024 primary states Iowa and South Carolina, according to new Fox Business polls. In Iowa, Trump garnered 46% support compared to 16% for Ron DeSantis and 11% for Tim Scott. In South Carolina, Trump received 48% support to 14% for Nikki Haley and 13% for DeSantis. The polls show Trump with wide leads despite being under investigation by the Justice Department for his efforts to overturn the 2020 election results. The strong polling numbers indicate Trump remains a formidable front-runner for the 2024 GOP nomination.

Republicans are wild. A twice impeached, twice (so far!) indicted, disloyal, adulterating, serial grifter is leading the race for them. Absolutely amazing. I guess it's true what I heard. The only American Standards^tm^ are toilet seats. Imagine how awful you have to be as a person to vote for someone like that! So god damn weird.

Meanwhile, the Japanese have much better toilets.

My god yes they do. Bidets should be more common in the US.

Bidets are awesome. However I think American men think acknowledging you even have an a****** is gay.

I appreciated the heated toilet seats even more.

I heard that in a song about 25-30 years ago. I don't even remember the group, but I would like to give them credit.

It's perhaps more prescient now than it ever was. Society 30 years ago was much saner and more stable. These days everyone be on a hair trigger.

People will do some wild things when someone tells them what they want to hear. As long as he keeps fighting the "elite" they'll follow in droves.
