I’d say there is a healthy debate to be had about this.

The thing that is actually concerning is that it came out of Trumps mouth out of the blue, so there is a non zero chance there is a reason beyond the pro and cons of this.

Darth Brendon entering the SC building with a shotgun as an official act to showcase how stupid that SC decision was would have been the best timeline.

What’s even more creepy is that there is almost no footage of him laughing wholeheardedly. The only thing I ever saw to a genuine laugh was at a rally, but only like 2-3 seconds.

“Now if we just could be a little bit more like the republicans, that’ll surely work this time around.”

It also completely ignored the cost of the consequences, which is likely going to easily outpace any money “saved”.

I’ll be slipping into your DMs…

I hope you’re right, but they will likely try. And the Rule of law has been eroded more and more. They already openly defied a court order to send Venezuelan people to the El Salvador work camp. They gloated about it, too.

And that was all without due process. Some even had hearings scheduled and still got deported into slavery.

Now that he successfully tested the waters with this, I’m not so sure about trusting the rule of law in the US.

His cringe “trolling” is backfiring since naming it DOGE ensured that it will forever be connected to him.

This fucker literally posed with a chainsaw on stage, and now he’s saying he’s not responsible for the cuts.

I mean he can run for primary. A lot of people should. The DNC just needs to take their finger off the scale and let the actual people decide what candidate they want.

There is also a huge amount of waste going on AFAIK.

People in charge are knowingly spending money on stuff they don’t need, just to spend their budget. Because if they spend less, the get less budget next round. They are essentially incentiviced to waste money.

All his numbers are dwarfed by the amount of taxpayer money he received for his companies.

what exactly is their end game?

Slavery

Also to suggest that this is all from the genius of Musk, Trump and co. alone is a stretch. Years of Republican propaganda, lies, gerrymandering, erosion of ethics and laws, democrats sitting idly by, as well as building up an army of news organizations and influencers did contribute a lot to their rise to power. There are definitely some cunning people on the Republican side, and populists like Trump now profit from the environment they created.

Musk is definitely an idiot when it comes to a lot of technical knowledge about the fields he pretends to be knowledgable in (see that twitter interview where he suggested to “rewrite the code”). But he is not stupid when it comes to throwing around money to manipulate people, just plain evil.

Kinda crazy that Hitler was put in jail for his coup attempt, while Trump evaded any and all consequences from his. Not that it stopped Hitler from rising to power…

But, while not directly comparable, it’s in a way ironic that Hitler seemingly faced harsher consequences than Trump, even though Hitler’s time in prison wasn’t exactly tough for him.

Yeah. I’m done talking to you. The way you argue shows that you rather be calling people names than actually make arguments. If you can’t be respectful in a discussion, I’m not gonna waste my time with you.

Way to miss the point. Against Trump, it shouldn’t matter who the other candidate is. A fucking bucket of snails could have been candidate and I’d vote for it over it over fascism.

this is why you lose so damn much

“This candidate isn’t left enough for me. By not voting I essentially vote for fascism”. That is why democrats lose.

Would a more left leaning candidate have more chances? Maybe? No matter what, should it have mattered if the alternative is Trump? Absolutelyfucking not, but apparently it does.

It’s kinda crazy to me that a sizable amount of people expect a perfect completely spotless candidate, or they don’t vote and hand over the win to fascism.

In a rational world, Harris would have won without even doing a single rally, because the alternative is Trump and his cronies.

People generally don’t realize that the only way to get an option to the left of the democrats is if Republicans no longer win elections. But with each “punishment”, voters give the democrats, the Republicans’ grip on power gets tighter and tighter, with more cronie judges, more gerrymandering, more voter purges, more ID rules, and more propaganda.

So, are the voters, or rather those who didn’t vote, wrong? Fuck yes, for the reason that because of them, we now have Trump as the US president rather than him going to prison like he deserves. Of course they are wrong. How is that even a question?

One side of me hopes they outlaw computer games and porn like it’s laid out in project 2025. Unfortunately, it will hit everyone, but I fear that this is gonna happen anyway.
