I’ll celebrate the day by burning the American flag and posting online about how much I hate Trump, because I still have the freedom to do both of those things no matter what this sack of shit wants.

I don’t think, for as long as I live, I will ever stop being mad at whoever let Biden on stage in that condition.

Prison would be too good for these jackboot thugs.

True, I did not think of that. Trump’s new favorite tactic seems to be doing (or saying that he will do) the thing that everybody wants, but then complaining that his hands are tied by the courts or the law, even though neither of those things prevent him from breaking the law when it suits him. “Oops, sorry, we so badly wanted to release the full unredacted Epstein files but the law says we can’t gosh golly darnit, what a bummer, you saw that I supported it, but it’s these activist judges that are preventing the truth from getting out!”

Bondi is 100% running cover for him if they do get released.

My own theory on the flip-flop back to his original stance:

1. The DOJ/FBI have finished sanitizing the entire document to clear Trump and Republican loyalists, so releasing it now will only help them.

2. The worst of the damning information (about Trump knowing about the girls and not stopping it) has already been made public so there’s no point in hiding it anymore. Republicans have already spun the narrative as “not that bad” and Trump survived, so why not win some brownie points and release the official document in it’s entirety?

I can’t see any other reason for why he suddenly wants them to go public again. Trump only ever does things that serve his own self interests, so him blocking it for so long was beneficial to him in some way, and now continuing to block it doesn’t benefit him.

Deeds, not words.

I’ll believe this shit when I see it, which will probably be never.

I’m too old to be fooled by these MAGA morons and their crocodile tears.

Just make him a fucking king already then, you spineless mollusks. That’ll make your jobs much easier so you won’t have to make hard decisions like choosing to fight for your constituents.

Dems fucking caved. FOR NOTHING. Stupid motherfuckers.

Sometimes they can’t even win when Trump is on the ballot. Seems more accurate to say that they can’t win unless a woman is on the democratic ticket.

Hope he’s somewhere nice and hot.

The fucking media are such pussies.

I wish news outlets were run by journalists who burn with a passion to be the one who breaks the story that turns the whole world upside down, and not money grubbing billionaire parasites.

Yes. The states are responsible for running elections, not the federal government, so them being shut down doesn’t affect tomorrow.

It started last week, but only amounted to flight delays. I anticipate that things are unlikely to improve and will only get worse as more and more ATCs call in sick in protest.

My prediction is that it will end this week when federal ATC employees stop showing up for work, thus directly affecting the quality of life of republican lawmakers and their billionaire donors. That’s exactly why the last “longest shutdown in history” ended too.

Starving people? Hardly an inconvenience to the ultra rich. Can’t fly their private jet? One phone call to Trump and the shutdown is over that afternoon.

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.

What I can’t explain through all this, is how he won the second time. And this is probably because he didn’t actually win the second time.

Say it louder for the folks in back who still think America chose an open fascist over the status quo.

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

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?
