(2,186 posts)I think much of the reason why republicans are so scared of Donny is the potential for him to form a new Party, which would mean the end of the GOP as a competitive entity. It would be great for us.

(1,442 posts)if Loser really were capable of forming his own new party, he would, of course, chose to name it after himself. After all, that's what he always does.

(1,442 posts)but the mispronunciation "Thoity Thoid and Thoid" goes back to, at least, the 1920s in New York City, from what I've read. (It's supposed to actually mean "33rd Street and Third Avenue," on the East Side of Manhattan.)
I, personally, remember hearing that mispronunciation used fairly often as a boy in the 1950s, when black and white movies of The Bowery Boys series were shown on TV. My memory also tells me that a number of comedy TV shows of the 1950s, and early 1960s, also used the New York version as a running gag.
I had no idea that Cajuns also have their own, very similar mispronunciation. Thanks for the information. I got a kick out of hearing about it.

(1,789 posts)It sounds more like Brooklyn than areas that are closer geographically. New York and New Orleans were populated by immigrants from Italy and Ireland at about the same time lending to the similarity. It does sort of incorporate the Cajun dialect as part of a unique speech gumbo. Cajun speech is like an island in the south and New Orleans is a smaller island within that.
And yes, "thoity thoid" sounds like something we would say.

(6,401 posts)...they are calling for a new party called "America First". And I wish them all the success.
But in reality, this will be another way for him to grift. Take in the donations, pay exorbitant salaries to his kids, pay for conferences at Trump properties at full rack rates, etc.
This could be his 2024 plan, if the GOP wants to be rid of him and not siphon off votes, they will have to pay him off to go away.

But I hope you're correct. A divided fascists is a good thing.
