Take heart. Our fellow citizens are slow learners, and few of them have paid close attention to Trump and his shit forsaken privilege in escaping consequences since he left office.
It will be a long wait, but four years of unbridled trump will open a lot of eyes. Let them get a healthy, sustained dose of exactly what they didn’t realize they asked for and then we rebuild.
And don’t give away the House like that. It’s not over yet, and with any luck that guardrail will remain.
Harris had a good start, but she never built on it. She stuck to her talking points and Trump will be worse rhetoric. That’s enough for many of us, but the majority need to be swept away by sensation.
She didn’t humanize herself enough, didn’t show the world who she is. She’s a private, guarded person (as much as a high profile politician can be) and a lot of people think that makes her unlikable. Unfortunately presidential candidates need to be well liked to succeed.
The FBI traced this to Russia
I can attest to you being half right based on my two Puerto Rican coworkers, both Trumpers.
One rationalized his choice by saying two things (paraphrasing his words):
Puerto Ricans have the same trash sentiment about Dominicans and aren’t shy about it. So since they dish it out, they should be able to take it.
He decided Puerto Rico is trash because the government is corrupt and pockets all the US federal funding.
It didn’t bother him that Tony Hinchcliffe, or Trump’s campaign at large has no place saying these things.
The other coworker has changed his mind and is NOT ok with the comments. It may be too late since he probably already voted; I’m not going to ask him.
He wants consequences but he doesn’t. Knows J6 was wrong, had the power and influence to do something about it, but shrank into his shell. Knows Trump should be out of the picture, yet endorsed him. Party loyalty above justice and country.
As he continues to shrivel I hope he feels nothing but disgrace and despair about his life.
I thought it was funny how Peter (?) became an awkward redditor saying weird reddit shit while trying to push his failing art project.
There’s a lot of hype around calling this a trove and playing up Trump’s resistance to having it released. Surely there’s something damning in there, right?
Indeed. Scrap electoral college and remove the arbitrary cap on House reps.
Well put. Without the social media lies this country would be very different. I really hope education will develop that imparts critical thinking/warns of the consequences of sensationalism. But even with that, people have to want to learn.
Good, let the hate flow through you
Look, the important thing here is for Johnson to maintain his true-orange loyalty status. He would never let trivial matters like government funding get in the way of that.
After Feige owning up to the recent quantity over quality issues, and allowing Deadpool to trash the Multiverse handling, it seems to me AAA has to be good. Hopefully this isn’t just wishful thinking
Is there anything to this, or is it just a hail mary?
If Garland outlives me I’d like him to be a pallbearer at my funeral so he can let me down one last time.
That bright red poof when the structure collapsed in Multiverse of Madness was her noping the hell out.
Well, she did conjure up a can of whoopass
I don’t know how anyone can watch this and not feel Trump is exposed as being nonsensical and vindictive. I feel hopeful that Kamala is changing plenty of undecided minds, though I wish she’d been able to expand more on policy and less on Trump’s lies.
Strike until you blow the doors off the place!
It wouldn’t be surprising to hear the influencers knew full well they were being funded by Russia.
Nor would it be surprising to learn they were completely duped since they’re into that sort of thing–just like their followers.
I fail to see any logic with anyone interviewed. They knew things would be worse for Palestine and Lebanon with the donvict, they know they personally may face hardship as a consequence of the election. They know they were duped.
But they wanted to punish Democrats and Harris particularly. Does that satisfaction make the rest of the shit sandwich taste good?
