Sometime after the midterms are over I really hope this fucking walking fossil just up and dies. Just imagine thinking that outlawing bigotry is the worst thing that happened to religious “freedom”. This guy is an absolute piece of goddamn shit. Both him and that fucking Uncle Tom.
But for the many on the right, backing down from past progressive rhetoric once, or even many times, will never be enough. It is those same folks on the right who dictate what is considered unacceptable and, in response, what many Democrats may worry is too radical or “woke” for potential voters leaning more toward the center.
This part right here is what kills me. The people he is looking to get out and vote for him are not right wing people. They aren’t the people who mass consume fucking Fox News and OAN. And the fact that Democrats seemingly always are is what’s wrong with the party.
That is exactly who they are and always have been.
Will the succeed in their agenda? Probably not, you have to flip actual Republican seats to do so. But dammit they’re gonna try.
I find this attitude defeatist. A not insignificant number of people who perennially vote for Republicans are in favor of a lot of Democratic socialist ideas. The problem to surmount is the decades of propaganda making the word socialism somehow demonic and evil. There is also the unholy marriage of the Christian church and republicans. Glued mostly together by the continual fight over abortion.

Yeah, and look at who owns them now. I’m honestly surprised they didn’t air the presidential rant.
He’s scared that the Republicans are going to get swept in November and is desperately searching for a reason/way to block or cancel them.
This seems like a joke but what is happening is fucking dangerous. The more desperate they get the more deadly the outcome.
Meanwhile, here is Chicago the establishment dems have such an unbelievable stranglehold on their positions that getting progressives through the door is such an uphill battle it’s not even funny.
He doesn’t have to be. He’s got a bunch of dipshit sycophants around him that will definitely remind him. Especially since Republicans want that bill passed more than anything. Since it’s their jobs that are on the line come this November.
Unless he vetoes it. And he is just a kind of petty motherfucker who would veto such a thing just cause he didn’t get his way.
At first I was kind of surprised when I saw that this seemingly positively progressive headline was coming from HuffPost. And then I read the article. And it is a typical HuffPost article.
These people won’t learn until we beat it into them with our votes.
It’s patently obvious to anyone with a functioning brain that this was neglect and/or incompetence. There is no way to “cause” an algae bloom in an adequately maintained pool or fountain in the amount of time between when it was “taken care of” by Trump’s wealthy friend and contributor and when it turned green with algae. Then again most of MAGA could be considered mentally handicapped IMO. So most of his mouth breathing followers will nod along and think “Yeah, must be them libtards dun sabotaged it”.
We can only hope that this is true. I’ll buy it when I see it in Illinois.
Knowing Trump fans, they’re going to say it’s a good thing, it’ll make you get up and get a job sooner rather than laying around “wasting time on the government dime”. Cause they all probably believe it’s very easy to get another job.
I really think we need to revoke Wyoming status as a state. They don’t have enough of a population to justify statehood.
Like 15 years ago I had a couple of conservative morons who lived next door to me try to convince me how great Marco Rubio was and how he would be excellent as president. And I just looked at them like they were the dumbest people I’d ever met in my entire goddamn life.
Democrats plan on doing something pointless and wasting everybody’s time. What else is new?
Just fucking impeach the goddamn bastard. If you don’t have enough members to do that then you failed as a party to get people to vote for you because of your bullshit centrism.
Dems: we released this report in order to make sure that you could trust us.
Also Dems: we investigated ourselves and found that we did nothing wrong. It’s your fault for not voting for us.
Is there a progressive or, you know, anyone with a pulse running against this useless lump of flesh in the primary?
Since he has stolen petabytes of American citizens data and is doing God knows what with it, he absolutely should be incarcerated and interrogated.
