The people who show up probably hate him so he wussed out

Shame, would have been the perfect day for another attempt

Why is Trump pardoning Antifa FBI crisis actors??

“dirty commies forced people into poverty and famine!” doesn’t really sound so different when people can’t afford homes or food under capitalism

Or, maybe they’ll be the Token Black Republican!

Knowing they’re personally hated by their party, and the only reason they are tolerated is because their existence “refutes” the palpable and constant racisim of the GOP.

One day, if they hate their own race enough, they can grow up to be the greatest Uncle Tom in history aside from Clarence Thomas!

Classic democratic party.

Waiting until the last possible minute to begin pretending to protect Americans from the entitlements of billionaires.

We knew Trump was running again

We knew the media was sane washing everything Trump does, did, and will do

He made specific promises to be a dictator and hinted at this being the last election

He specifically promised to use the army domestically.

Now, it’s almost a month after he won and Democrats are considering maybe doing something about framework regarding the army being used domestically.

Both sides aren’t the same, but they’re both owned by the same people.

Once upon a time Democrats could float the idea of capitulation to business interests to maintain Americans global business dominance. Nowadays any democrat who isn’t fully progressive on workers rights is just another flavor of corporate Greed.

Generally, farmers bitch and cry about anything and everything, except for the things they actually should care about. Like sustainably, and corporate ownership of supply chains that collude on prices and distribution networks while putting all the risk on farmers.

They are one of the more entitled voter blocks who live in a zero sum, anything to ‘survive’ at the expense of everything else mentality.

We’d have dust bowl events every 5 years if farmers had their way. It’s absolutely an industry that demands government intervention, because sustainability isn’t short term profitable.

I’m not suggesting that farmers are inherently bad/greedy/destructive of the environment, as the food supply chain often forces farmers to act this way, but that doesn’t change their current attitudes and approach to agriculture.

My farmchair quarterback call is that Farmers crop yields should be half of their income, and sustainable practices, limited fertilizer and pesticide use, and overall soil quality and health should act as a multiplier to crop yields. So lower yields but better farming practices pays more than high yield, environment destroying, agriculture

Never thought I’d see the day where I hoped a McConnell plan would work in any capacity.

He’s allowed Trump to exist so project 2025 can happen.

Moscow Mitch will do anything to make project 2025 happen, maybe he was convinced the “normal” Republicans can mitigate Trump’s penchant for treason and sedition against America and that mitigation risk was worth the project 2025 payout.

Hopefully he is right about mitigating Trump. Otherwise, I hope McConnell is the first Republican publicly executed because Trump absolutely wants to be able to publicly execute anyone he doesn’t like.

If you want specifics, Project 2025 is absolutely the roadmap they are using.

TL:DR The broadstrokes of America’s decline over the next 4 years are:

• Destroy education so poor people cannot understand what’s happening to them and how to stop it, and only wealthy will have the means to educate and employ themselves.

• Destroy labor unions so everyone is individually fighting a united corpo government for livable wages

• Change local and federal government so elections are pageantry instead of democracy

• Mandate religion in school, work, government, and eventually the home.

• Online ID so your internet use can be monitored and tracked

• Drill baby drill

• White supremacy/deportation will be super messy and fuck the economy

• Whatever the consequences of not understanding tariffs are

If you’re wealthy, none of this applies to you. This election was to confirm if money and power are above the law.

America overwhelmingly decided they prefer a king unbound by Magna Carta over law, order, and democracy.

Not voting has the same consequences, so those aren’t too smart either.

Gen Z are entitled like boomers, but with almost no economic prospects outside their parents.

Which makes sense, since loads of Gen Z were priced out of a future before they could even start earning, so there’s no point in giving effort

At least Trump will guarantee Gen Z nearly unlimited well paying work if they’re interested in bounty hunting immigrants and tracking fertility

I wonder if this is why fox news et all were flagrantly lying about roving immigrant gangs occupying towns (that never existed)

That happens in a lot of immigrants home countries, so immigrants voting to stop it from coming to America makes sense - its why they uprooted their lives and migrated to America in the first place.

I’m just as disappointed as anyone else in the outcome/demographic split etc - but it’s almost hard to blame people when every “legitimate” news source can pitch a coordinated fantasy and make it real.

You’re supposed to be able to trust news sources - but when multiple news sources coordinate to make up stories and narratives that aren’t true, and there’s zero consequences for lying or promoting disinformation, people will never be able to make an informed opinion again.

Just like the lack of consequences for Trump let people believe he’s the target of a witch hunt. People want to believe the accountability applied to them is also applied to major institutions like news, police, and government, but can’t seem to understand it only exists for the poor.

Women are easy, natural, targets for Conservatives.

Beyond that? Disability, Left handedness, a grandfather who did yoga once, someone wasn’t enthusiastic enough during the 2 minutes hate, they’ll never run out of outsiders to invent and demonize!

Isn’t the “legal justification” they used not including ‘Federal officers’ on their list of ‘category of persons’ allowed to be present during voting?

So they intentionally passed an (illegal) law that forbids the DOJ from overseeing the election process because oopsey daisy we totally didn’t mean to write a law that breaks the law!

But if you could honor our intentionally broken law while we’re committing the specific crimes you are here to prevent, that’d be super lawful of you.

A good chunk of Trump’s cancer is caused by terrible left wing policy.

I hate Trump and everything about the far right, but I can understand people falling in love with the idea of a strongman who will cut through bullshit and do what people want.

The left is supposed to mitigate income inequality, and make life good for their citizens.

Both left/right idealogies are entirely owned by corporate interests across the globe - this is the crux of the entire issue.

The problems facing the middle class are entirely artificial and intentional. There are a myriad of reasons, but the end result is that we have one societies/laws/reality for the wealthy, and a completely different set of rules for the population.

The left promises to solve everything with equality and the right promises to resolve everything with hierarchy.

Neither idealogy has any intention of doing anything but funnel as much money/power to big business until their political careers are done.

The obvious difference is the “Right” idealogies are objectively bad for everyone but the ultra wealthy. Unfortunately being ultra wealthy gives you the ability to own national anti-reality propaganda networks.

The scariest thing about Conservatives is they are getting pressed against reality and the false narrative they cling to as the only possible explanation of reality.

Their lie is so ridiculous and so obviously ‘coming from inside the house’ that they will now protect it with everything they are.

The only hope is that they accept a conclusion of ‘I was right about everything, just the small detail of who was actually responsible needed a single puzzle piece to confirm’.

I agree, and I can’t believe I’m saying this - because the Republicans are unequivocally going full Nazi, BUT

Republicans are doing crazy Nazi shit all the time. Yeah, the date has significance to American Nazis, and normally anything Nazi would have been publically perceived bad pre-Trump.

Even then, the Nazi accusations are often poorly executed and come off more as “EvErYoNe On ThE rIgHt Is A nAzi” and less “You are being categorically lied to, and if you vote Republican you will be irreversibly enslaved by the business class”

But we are so far past Republicans dancing around Nazism that complaining about sharing a Nazi date/location isn’t going to make anyone clutch their pearls and see clearly.

Trump and the Republicans going full Nazi doesn’t have much impact to the American population because

1. There are no consequences to being a punk ass Nazi bitch if you’re Republican, it’s actually a pre-requisite now.

2. No one is producing content to accurately show the Republican path to Nazism, the parallels, the significance, and the danger. No mention of union riots and former working conditions in the US, nothing.

3. Both political parties are entirely beholden to the donor class who is warming up to Nazism, which is why the Anti-Nazi rhetoric is only done in small, insignificant doses instead of a competent national Anti-Nazi campaign so Democrats have plausible deniability that they warned the public.

People aren’t threatened by Trump and will vote for him because America doesn’t tolerate traitors, and if anything Democrats said about Trump is true, surely he would be Jailed in Guantanamo Bay by now.

Total lack of consequences = evidence of innocence, so anything you say against Trump is hand-waved away because if anything was wrong/bad it wouldn’t be allowed.

This logic made Trump untouchable so far.

if only the people of florida werent so ignorant as to the actual causes of their problems.

Knowing you are an idiot doesn’t stop you from making idiot decisions in the future.

Not counting their inability to comprehend who their real enemies are - yeah the cause of your problems is Republicans

Third parties in the US are almost exclusively tools for siphoning votes off the main parties.

But if you still think government runs the show you are out to lunch. Corporations have been dictating policy for a long long time in the US, and the laws are only making it easier for corporations to directly own politicians.

The only one who will change this is if a huge amount of voters organizing and demanding change. Like current levels Republican stochastic terrorism, but for things like healthcare, education, workers rights, consumer rights etc.

Corporations spend a lot of time and money taking these things away from us, and we’ve been generally watching the middle class disappear for decades.

It will take sustained, active, pressure, and vigilance from the people to make corporate money is not worth it and politicians make decisions based on benefitting their constituents.

Unfortunately, nowadays most constituents only care about making life difficult for others instead of better for everyone including themselves.

More weird than strange if you ask me.

That fascist sure group is a really weird bunch!

Fuck John McEntee and anyone who had anything to do with project 2025

Insane how we’re forced to be distracted with news media focusing on lies about immigrants eating pets instead of hammering Republicans about project 2025.

They are 100% full steam ahead, end running on all fronts relentlessly as we speak.

Weird how Ohio is into it, since he’s their guy and all.

1/3 of people get forced to eat shit because 1/3 of people want everyone but themselves to have to eat shit because they wrongly think they will never have to eat the shit they are voting to have literally everyone eat.

Worst of all, 1/3 of people like having their head in the sand, being unable to develop an opinion on if being force fed shit is good or bad.
