Any one of those would have been the absolute end of a political career for anyone else, but his cult doesn’t care. They celebrate it every time he makes the people they don’t like angry. His MAGAts would celebrate him for shooting someone in the street if the victim had rainbow hair and stated pronouns.

That’s the Art of the Deal, baby! Throw a screaming swearing tantrum and demand you get your way!

Trump staying in power is what I don’t want. Tinyface Couchfucker certainly isn’t a great choice as replacement but he’s definitely not worse than Dementia Hitler.

Yeah he really wants to get out in front of the eventual revelation that he’s shockingly on the list. We definitely already know that though so one again taco don has shit more than his pants.

Get out of the tunnel and swab the gunnel!

I’m deeply disappointed you didn’t take the chance to go with “Ditch the caves, hit the waves!”

“It’s just a joke! Unless…”

They say that because when they get more money they can invest it, grow it for later. They ridicule spending it because if you’re able, investment IS the smarter decision, but that assumes all your needs are already met. The Capital class can’t even imagine their needs not being met, only wants that they can afford to wait for.

Wowee, nearly three years? Really throwin’ the book at him aren’t you Judge? ^/s

Of course it’s a financial decision. It’s not because Colbert doesn’t bring in money, or even because he doesn’t bring in ENOUGH money, it’s because of the merger witth Paramount that requires the Trump administration’s approval. THAT is their financial concern.

It’s just a soft sell on Slavery Lite, all the oppression with only half the calories.

If the secret police are trying to find you, they could turn on your flashlight and make hiding harder?

Yeah a big gamble, who knows what might happen if people think he’s a liar!

So he’s thinking about a soft sell on “Slavery Lite” then. Do you guys remember the days when a president could do something like this and it would IMMEDIATELY mean the absolute end of their political career? I miss that. I miss that so much.

You’re only proving that you don’t actually have any idea what’s going on here, acting like we’re resting on our laurels because there was a big protest. Nobody here is thinking “Yeah we made ourselves heard, job’s done!” Nobody here says the fight is won, but you’re out here acting like nothing is being done at all.

What may have been the largest organized protests in American history were just a few days back, the president has record-breakingly low approval, even his own party’s talking heads are turning against him. If you’re not going to be satisfied by anything short of armed uprising then at least be brave enough to say as much, but pretending that Americans just don’t see anything wrong and aren’t doing anything is an act of wilful and blatant ignorance.

Meanwhile their vote or lack thereof directly empowered someone who actively encourages it, they just don’t want to take responsibility for that part.

The Pentagon has contingency plans for every situation they can imagine. This is not news so much as it’s just another example of Hesgeth being a fucking moron. They have plans to invade everywhere, they have contingency plans to counterattack against a Canadian invasion for fuck sake. They have these plans because if a situation arises, you don’t have the time to be cooking up new plans. Hesgeth acting like this is actually a plan that’s being considered it just another example of why he’s not fit to manage a godamn Mcdonalds, much less anything important.

The traditional 2A guys are on the side of the tyrants. It was never about resisting tyranny, never about freedom. It was a combination of “I like guns, fuck off,” fear of the world around them, and fantasizing about violence against liberals. The government they want to violently resist is the kind that’s forcing them to surrender their home to immigrants or trying to make their kids gay. They daydreamed about shooting rainbow-haired liberals trying to flounce in and steal their guns, not police and national guard following orders. Tyrants sending immigrants to concentration camps and making “the gays” legal targets for persecution are exactly what those traditional 2A twats want.

It’s why leftists and LGBTQ+ arming themselves is so important. We cannot count on the 2A Old Guard to protect us, their rhetoric about resisting tyranny and keeping the government in check was a lie. Given the chance they’d gladly join the MAGAstappo instead of lifting a finger to protect actual freedom.

Sometimes I think about how if any previous president had done, over the course of their entire career, the things Trump does in the average week, or sometimes even just a single day, it would have immediately ended their career. If a previous president had openly stated that if a specific person funded their rivals there would be serious consequences, that’d be it. They’d be done. Impeached on the spot, out of office, blacklisted by their own party, and shamed for all of history.

The news cycle crucified Obama for wearing a tan suit. They raked him over the coals because he was so out of touch that he asked a burger place if they had Dijon mustard. What do you think they’d have done if he openly promised retribution against those who dared disagree with him like this?

And Donald motherfucking Trump does this crap all the godamn time, and he just gets away with it because the Republicans like that it’s their tyrant, the Democrats are afraid of actually doing anything, and by the time the public can mobilize against one thing he’s already done three more things that make the past look trivial.
