Let’s go TACO, let’s go!!!
Update: Yes, the Dems have been pretty much useless but they can’t do anything when they have no majority in either the House or Senate and Don TACO is ruling by EOs.
But this is how you get him and them. Fuck the high road, hit them at their level. Call them names like weirdos and TACO. If anything induce strokes in all of them.
They can’t do anything without a majority?
A spending bill passed last month that did not have enough Republicans to pass it … Dems voted on it and helped pass it. This should not be happening.
They also give out free votes to the Republican party in Congress.
I wish we had a real opposition party instead of whatever this generational disconnect and enrichment cult is.
Taco Bell needs to jump on this.
Their parent company might not want the attention of the orange toddler.
Especially with his birthday approaching.
$1 Nacho Cheese Doritos Locos.
Make it happen, Taco Bell.
Nah, new limited edition Chicken Doritos Locos Supreme Ruler edition that gets topped with a generous layer of ketchup. Also available in child size for those with tiny hands.
Good strategy. IIRC, this is how German citizens stopped the rise of Hitler.
Honestly, satire is pretty effective. Hitler was obsessed with projecting power, and humor especially the kind many Jewish people used to survive the camps was a powerful tool for undermining that illusion. Humour takes power away from a thing. It’s why it’s great against powerful entities but feels evil when used against the weak. If more people had mocked him early on, the myth of a strong, untouchable leader might never have taken root.
It’s always baffling when a leftist jumps in to argue that pointing this out is somehow pointless or juvenile. Maybe it’s a lack of social intuition, or just a failure to grasp the bigger picture but too often, the left underestimates the power of cultural resistance. Ridicule, art, memes, jokes these are tools that shape perception and cut authoritarianism down to size.
And these politicians you roll your eyes at? They’re not doing it for themselves. They’re calling out people like you, trying to shake you awake, trying to keep the pressure on. But instead of joining in, too many of you just sit back, waiting for someone else to fix it all.
It’s effective if it’s combined with action. If democrats are, say, voting in enough numbers to help pass his spending bill, then this already overplayed tease is meaningless. Democrats don’t even try to obstruct. The least they could do is make witty satire instead latching onto anything with a hint of virality, beating it to death, and then beating the corpse.
I guess it’s like fucking. This is foreplay. It’s important. Don’t try to rush things. Don’t just rush in, fart on them a bit.
Don’t over think the power of just teasing these fucking clowns. You’re not going to get action anytime soon. Do what you can.
Democrats have been doing “foreplay” for years. Trump is not a new entity on the political scene, we’ve already lived through a Trump presidency, then after all the noise (or “foreplay” as you put it) that democrats made about how criminal he is, they did absolutely nothing to pursue prosecution during or after his term. They’ve had years to do something meaningful and they’ve done nothing. This lame stunt will lead to nothing. Foreplay is supposed to be interesting/exciting and generally leads to something more. There is never anything more to democrats, they just make noise and beg for donations while things only continue getting worse.
Just living in the moment bro.
We don’t get many of these. You’re killing my buzz man
Leftists are always against any actual action taken to oppose the right.
Castro
Most people don‘t know this, but the reason Steiner’s attack failed was because he had been to Taco Bell the day before and got the poopenfarten so massively it made his troops slip on the waste flowing from the toilets.
In before…

Can we finally get taco trucks on every corner? I’m still waiting for that catastrophe the republicans said would happen.
They’re planning to take away food stamps, end health insurance for the needy, and are trying to exterminate the T in LGBT (don’t worry, they’ll come for the LGBs too since its last hired, first fired). But, the best Dems can do is giving out tacos once as a political ploy?
The conservatards are literally at war with women right now. The Democratic Party suggests we eat tacos. Well played /S
That’ll show him!
On one hand, it’s useless performative bullshit. On the other hand, Trump seems to be exactly the kind of guy to get really upset about that sort of thing.
Also it’s this type of performative bullshit that gave Trump his power. Don’t underestimate the power of this type of thing.
I’d still prefer actual policy, but it’s a start
Yeah it doesn’t work like it does for him without a face. There’s no face here. It works for him because it’s him, personally, doing and saying wild shit.
Where have I heard this before…
Hey can Democrats support popular leftist policy?
Can the Democrats please stop allowing this fascist administration’s bills to pass?
Can they do anything that actually matters?
Hey can Democrats support popular leftist policy?
No. People don’t want leftist policy. They want to go endless fundraising events where the opposition party is lightly teased.
Can the Democrats please stop allowing this fascist administration’s bills to pass?
No. The bills are actually incredibly popular (among the donor class) and Democrats don’t want to risk a negative news cycle by appearing overly oppositional.
Can they do anything that actually matters?
Yes. They can rubber stamp more money for weapons to Israel.
I’d rather they start an impeachment.
Give out free guns and MANPADS instead
That seems like socialism, Republicans would hate that. Guns are only for people who can afford them and white people, otherwise the cops wouldn’t know who to shoot and who to give leeway to
Hey look, man, Dems are useless but Ill take some free tacos. Where can I get one?
I hate absolutely everything about this.
I’ve never been a fan of calling Trump nicknames or going low, not because I’m trying to uphold any sort of highroad Liberal ideology but because I personally find it crass and he’s an abominable human being with thousands of legitimate offenses to point to. If you do it on your own time to blow off steam, whatever, I’m not gonna get on your case. But I need more from our politicians.
What’s the message here? I get that it’s generally to agitate him, but are you trying to goad him into not chickening out? Just fucking do it, bro. There are thousands of Americans with food insecurity right now and you’re gonna give Republicans tacos?! Again, I get that it’s not really comparable and those issues are on different levels, but it still maintains that glossy respectability where you can’t really levy any criticism against it because they’re just giving away tacos. There’s no real message here at all.
And lastly, nobody is even standing up to put their name on this. The DNC is doing this? Who? Whose idea? We have so many Republicans at every level chomping at the bit to get themselves in front of any camera they can to spread their repugnant message and we can’t even get one Democrat to stand up and put their name on this meager messaging. Fucking cowards, the lot of them.
I expected nothing and I’m still disappointed.
