That’s because Trump lies about there being a crime epidemic to send in the military.

Take special notice on how the Trump administration never ever ever provides proof or evidence or data of any of these claims. Just “this blue city is a crime infested hellhole” and then they move straight to rubber stamping the jack boot thugs against the wishes of the local governments.

If these military deployments actually had a measurable effect on crime rates in cities, you know for a fact that Republican snakes would be blasting those stats on every airwave.

If they are so cunning, why can’t they win a fucking election?

Oh no no, you misunderstand.

You must also be rich and white. It’s not political to lock up poor or minority political candidates, even if they aren’t criminals.

Because going high when they go low has been a totally winning strategy for us up until this point, right?

What good is a moderate when there’s no middle ground on anything anymore?

I saw the twin full size American flags on the back of the truck and I instantly pegged him as a MAGA nutter.

It’s really not hard to spot this particular brand of mental illness.

That’s what Schumer said last time. Spoiler: he did the layoffs anyway.

I’m a little bit surprised that a grand jury indicted him on such flimsy evidence, but at the same time, fuck all these MAGA enablers. Comey was instrumental in getting Trump elected in 2016 and he deserves Trump’s wrath.

If you find out a guy who comes to poker night is cheating to win, and gets caught trying to cheat during a game, would you still agree to play with him again?

I refuse to believe that 50% of Americans would say, enthusiastically, yes.

And yet, we had evidence of Trump pressuring governors to “find extra votes”, and also the fake elector scheme, and also the January 6th coup that he watched unfold on live television and did nothing to prevent, and people think that he didn’t cheat in 2024? Am I supposed to believe that people said, yeah that’s our guy? Or it is more likely that he just cheated so well this time that he got away with it?

He should have never been allowed to run again, but useless decorum is what killed any chance at Trump ever seeing justice for his crimes against the American people. No, it would look bad if we banned the known cheater from the poker table, just let him play again and beat him fair and square this time, right?

I used to have “imposter syndrome”, where I would always feel like I am just pretending to be a qualified and knowledgeable individual, and that at any moment someone would unmask me as a fraud, even if I wasn’t and had no reason to feel that way.

Then Trump got elected and suddenly I was cured. If that moron can get elected to the most important job in the country, whatever I’m doing is small potatoes. You can be an incompetent fool and still have people fall over themselves to defend you if you have confidence and strut around with an air of legitimacy.

By the time he was elected a second time, I no longer believed in either humanity or the concept of being “unqualified”.

Let him be an inspiration. Chase your dreams. If the village idiot can successfully become POTUS, you can do whatever you set your mind to.

The whole post is so incoherent that I couldn’t even tell that the random segue was meant to be directed at someone else without the highlight.

This dude’s brain is mush.

I’ve noticed this happening more often than I would have imagined, actually. There are some times where Trump or one of his sycophants will make an off-the-cuff remark that is actually, genuinely, a good and logical thing to do. it doesn’t happen that often, but it does happen. The bizarre part is that when that idea fails to manifest media coverage detailing how bad it is, they just… give up on it. It’s like the conservative political philosophy has completely morphed into being a contrarian force against liberalism, in spite of whatever their personal beliefs might be. If democrats are ambivalent on an issue, so are they.

Haha, look at all these people upset that a bad person is doing bad things! What a bunch of obsessed losers!

If you don’t like hearing us complain, feel free to slither back under whatever rock you crawled out of.

1st Amendment rights, anyone?

Funny how the right is always the first one to attack enshrined rights as soon as they are used against them.

Hey Chaz, what are the mass shooting stats if you don’t include MAGA on MAGA shootings?

Heard on the news this morning that his dad was/is a pastor and snitched on him to a US Marshall.

So yeah, brainwashed. His own kid will probably get the death penalty for fighting back against the fascists.

Of course, this could all just be a scapegoat to cover for the FBI’s gross incompetence just like the United Healthcare CEO killing. Can’t have the bastards lose face, so they’ll pin it on someone, anyone who fits the bill.

Everyone on that list, without exception, needs to be prosecuted. Former POTUS, current POTUS, Mr Rogers, Keanu Reeves, The Pope, Optimus Prime, idgaf who they are, if their name appears on the client list or the flight logs, throw the fucking book at them.

A republican shoots up a school and nobody sees any issue with Republican ideology, but the second a trans person does we’ve gotta take away the guns, right?

Lefties and trans folk, arm up. If you haven’t bought your piece yet, start the application process. Once you have it, it becomes almost impossible for them to take it away by force.

I so wish I could register with a half decent 3rd party here in California, but they’re all complete jokes. California Independents nominated Trump in 2016, ffs. I can’t trust any of these idiotic political parties to not nominate HitlerBot 2000, some current or former celebrity, or a meme candidate.

3rd parties lack a nuanced political platform that differs from their contemporaries, and they also lack qualified and charismatic candidates to bring them out of obscurity.

I try not to be judgemental about such things. Everyone has different circumstances in life that might have prevented them from learning those skills. My fiancee, now in her 30’s, has never owned a bicycle and was never taught. She had a poor upbringing and so the funds were never there for her to be able to learn.

But man, I sure do wonder about the people whose parents did have the financial means for bike riding and swim lessons. Either the parents didn’t show any interest in teaching their kid how to do it, or the kid was not interested in leaning. Either way, it’s not really a good reflection on either the parents or the kid.
