It’s more like narcissistic collapse when he really spirals out. But, no matter, the ghouls around him will make sure that the ICE raids run on time.
Thirty years of MS office and still nobody can work the fucking mail merge functionality correctly.
Laws aren’t auto-enforcing magic. Any time that fossil fuel companies violate this stupid law (written for purely performative reasons) it simply wouldn’t be enforced.
Similarly, if the law allows for civil action, a multitude of reasons would be conjured on demand explaining why the lawsuit couldn’t move forward against fossil fuel companies. If it managed to move through district courts, it would simply wind up on the supreme court docket and they would again conjure up some reasons why the suit was invalid.
The oligarchs just didn’t have enough choice with the two they already own.
If only we had the standards for the presidency that we have for newly naturalized citizens.
Can’t have food for starving infants but we’ll spend a fifth a trillion on the masked, jeaned gestapo to kick the American gulag and genocide project into high gear.
Another way to escalate this situation is to raise the taxes on billionaires enough to account for the missing revenue from the federal government. Itemize it and call it the “Trump tax”.
I think there’s an increasing likelihood that the pendulum just breaks and falls to the ground rather than swinging any kind of way.
They’re idiots. Oh, and they’ve swallowed the propaganda whole and asked for seconds.
The Supreme Court and the rule of law:
Sorry, this is America. Best we can do is starvation wages with unpredictable hours.
Yeah, I dunno. I never worked in one myself and I don’t want to. But I also wouldn’t be going around talking about what a great thing it would be if everyone worked in factories so 🤷.
Lots of people are willing to foment civil war part 2 but very few are willing to fight in it.
It’s kinda like how most Americans think that it would be better for the country if more people worked in factories, but none of those same people polled want to work in the factories themselves.
“I don’t want to have to take a position on record about my support for disastrous forever wars.”
I just realized that it would be hilarious to write to someone “with all due respect (none) …”
I think people are underestimating how big a loser Trump is. Like the people supporting him are losers, but it takes quite a bit to approach his unprecedented levels of loserhood.
I find they’re actually more informed and their reasoning does have some logic to it. I keep getting frustrated on things because it seems to me like the left is losing because they really are less informed and reality based.
You need to take a step back and consider your sources, because you’re starting to sound like you’re falling for the propaganda yourself.
“Reality-based” has a meaning and it walks a close line near “evidence-based”. Evidence-based scientific studies have repeatedly confirmed that right-wing media consumers are less informed about reality than those that consume no media.
Sure, right-wing media consumers might have a better idea in the current moment what Trump might do next because in some cases it’s difficult to tell if Fox is working for Trump or Trump is working for Fox. But that has nothing to do with Trump or his policies being reality-based. It has to do with consistency within their talking points and propaganda.
Reality is still reality, and the reality is that Trump attacked a sovereign nation without authorization from Congress. The reality is that we’ve been in a constitutional crisis for months now, and that the Republicans in Congress are abdicating their duty of oversight on the executive branch. I guarantee they aren’t covering that on Fox News.
I think when the surgery is good, nobody notices it.
I think some of them (weirdly) strive to look like they’ve had plastic surgery. It’s like a marking of their status or something.
There’s some mixture of an uncanny valley and/or Habsburg jaw effect to the women that surround Trump in particular.
When I heard Kristi Noem had to be rushed to the hospital due to an allergic reaction, my first thought was that it was from some type of cosmetic procedure she was having.
Of course you are bitch, because your handlers and masters told you to move on.
