At this point America has terminal cancer in every single major organ. The only cure from here is to cut it all out and replace it with someone fresh or a near fatal dose of chemo to wipe it all out. Anything less will just delay the inevitable death.
He also said he’d never heard of Project 2025 - until he began to implement it. His supporters had been beating the drum for months.
He said he believed in states rights - until some states didn’t tow his line.
He said he can’t run for a third term, but has also said “that’s a shame” and his cronies are beating that drum too “with a plan”
The gerrymandering is to lock in gop supremacy for once he’s gone.
I’m more than happy to be proven wrong - hell, I really hope I am, but fool me once…
I get it, he wants to make it feel like home if he’s gonna be living there for the rest of his life.
He won’t be stepping down from this gig, he knows the consequences he’ll have to face if he becomes a normal citizen again.
Agreed. Kirk balanced along a very fine line of “just debating” or “expressing opinions” but anyone with half a brain engaged could hear the dog whistles all through his arguments and neither side is as dumb as the media and memes make them out to be. Those whistles are heard loud and clear, it’s why some loved him, and others hated him.
Likewise and with much less nuance, a Fox presenter comments that the mentally ill and/or homeless should euthanized. Then days later a homeless camp is attacked. Wow, what an unlucky coincident?
I wouldn’t want to lose the right to free speech but when it appears to incite violence, I struggle to see how - particularly the Fox presenter scenario - is any different to “shouting fire in a crowded theatre”? Words causing others to take action that lead to the death of innocent people.
HOWEVER, one person’s violence-inspiring words are another person’s Rage Against the Machine or genuine call to action against oppression. Innocent people can and do get caught up in these struggles too.
I don’t have a solution. I have no idea how we fix this without trampling existing freedoms and ruining everything good. All I know is that it’s not an easy solution that some halfwit media personality or politician is going to solve with one easy action.

Or she “disappears” - bonus points if an unidentified liberal is subject of an elaborate manhunt before the lead goes cold. Meanwhile, Trump has her quietly shipped to Russia where she can pick up where she left off and live out her life with full govt protection
No Donald, it was a joke, you just don’t get it. But even even if it wasn’t a joke, he didn’t mean it. But even if he did mean it, it won’t really happen.
He’s never even heard of 86 and has nothing to do with it
I suspect the contract means that they only actually pay for those that are played
They never seen to connect the thought that “the government is useless at everything” with “oh shit, WE ARE the government!”
Govt departments would be no worse than private business if they:
This is what I think when I see a protest getting pushed around. Protesters outnumber the cops xxx to one.
There are enough people that the protesters could hold the cops down, one protester per limb, another to find their cuffs and lock them up while the other dozen keep watch, backup or sing motivational songs!
