I voted for her but don’t like her.

Primarily, because of her stance on prison labor which is just slavery with extra steps.

I guarantee you this is happening wherever you live, just in a different flavor.

The billionaires are parasites on the entire planet, not just the US.

This user keeps posting this on every thread, regardless of the subject at hand.

Not very cash money.

My take:

Trump is the average Fox News viewer given power.

Emotionally Immature, intellectually lazy, lacking introspection-- Fox News is the honey pot they turn to for opinions because that is easier for them than going to therapy.

Trump is not only a Fox News viewer, he IS what is being viewed 24/7 on Fox News.

It’s a narcissist’s wet dream!

Not just that, but he is the mirror where all these viewers can gaze upon their morally depraved selves adoringly.

Very well put.

You described his methodology very eloquently.

I ain’t scared, but it looks like you are.

That’s what they want, so that you will not even try.

And I’ll do it again, and again if I have to.

They looked about ready to hang themselves, I’m just so glad they managed to hang on for so long.

Wooooooosh

At the last protest, I embraced a crying queer young adult for over an hour, because they were completely beside themselves.

They had a mental breakdown because they didn’t even realize they were living with so much stress and fear these past few months.

And when they finally summoned the courage to show up to their very first protest in their young life, they SO relieved that so many people CARED about that happened to them that it completely overwhelmed them.

So please and kindly, shut the fuck up.

We’d have to spend a fortune on defense.

We’d suffer massive losses from being cut off from interstate trade agreements.

We’d have to deal with massive immigration issues.

We’d probably get our shit pushed in from all the federal military bases within the state.

I think it’s waaaay easier to just oust the current leadership and remove all the Congress members that aided and abetted.

Pathetic.

That just got slapped down in court as well.

I understand that we need to do more than to just sit and watch, but upholding the rule of law is still important.

Lol, no.

You should totes bring it up.

“Hey, I know you are a nice person-- did you vote for American children undergoing cancer treatment being deported? Are you okay with this?”

Yeah, because you were being a dick on your first comment.

Just say “my bad” and be more thoughtful going forward, that’s all it takes.

Bernie and AOC are the only two representatives that have ever gotten me so fired up that I’m signing up for phone banking & door knocking even though that’s like the last fucking thing I wanna do in my free time.

I am even hate calling my state representatives and telling them to just do what AOC says because clearly she’s got the biggest balls in the room and actually understands what her job is-- fighting for the people she represents, not corporate interests.

When we do not allow people to redeem themselves, they have zero reason to change or work with us, and will continue being our enemies.

Yeah, they voted Trump and Nazis-- they also have PTSD, trauma, may be grappling with addiction, suffering from mental illness, etc.

They also fought our country and are rightfully angry that we left them to rot in the streets.

We ALL created the conditions that led to Trump.

Thinking that we just need to be violent towards Trumpers to defeat them and THAT is going to fix our country is some really smooth brain thinking.

Bro, obviously they are doing illegal shit and pretending like the law does not apply to them and the courts have no power.

But at the same time, they are claiming the law gives them power, so they still need the courts on their side. Also they just had to settle with Maine, so obviously they are still afraid of going against the courts.

That is why it matters that these illegal moves get challenged in court and the rest of us says:

“No. That’s not what the law says. That’s illegal.”

It’s fucking stupid to respond by doing illegal shit when we are trying to uphold the rule of law.

No.

Not all of them voted for Trump, and even if they did, they’re clearly not mentally well and need to be helped.

Whenever anyone disavows Trump and Republicans, we need to embrace them so they stop working against us making things harder.

Plus, turned Republicans are helpful in turning others like themselves over even if just by sheer example.

We must build community, not tear it apart.

It has no standing.

It will be challenged and Trump is going to capitulate, just like he did with Maine.

It’s all distractions while they buy time to move American taxpayer money overseas.

There’s been efforts to make voting day a paid federal holiday, but alas-- that would turn the USA liberal and the powers that be cannot have that.

But their time is coming to an end and they know it, which is why they are going crazy now.
