President Donald Trump
I assume it's still acceptable to have a Trump thread in a Politics forum?
So this is an obvious lie - basically aimed at
Ultimately like all right wingers d2 doesn’t want to pay even a smidgeon more in tax on his large salary to make a better society.
Criminals are criminals because we are all horrible greedy ****s, justifying his own greed. The failed doctrine of Thatcherism.
Jfc, just because I don't subscribe to your ******ed socialist utopia doesn't mean I am some money grubbing **** who won't give up a bit to help others. There is a middle ground.
Ok so you agree that we should go for societal changes and people should be very wary of voting for right wing Democrats?
What do you claim to not mind paying more tax for that isn’t societal change?
I don't really know what you're asking. "Societal change" could mean just about anything.
You likened it to unicorns. I'm asking what real things you'd want to see in return for paying more tax.
I mean, Kamala would have been just fine at running the genocide machine drunk and high on benzos
Were. Were making great progress.
Don't worry, I've experienced similar relapses in my quest to stay sober for any prolonged period of time. Ironically enough, it's mostly your posting that drives me back to the bottle.
I cannot fathom how anyone would think it was a negative on Harris that she was a former prosecutor. If she prosecuted a lot of crimes, that means that she did her job well. Do you think the position shouldn't exist at all? Does that fact that someone was a prosecuting attorney really mean that she was likely to support genocide??
This is the question they will never answer because they will either look like a hypocrite or a moron.
Admitting he is in direct defiance of the Supreme Court.

President Donald Trump is planning to oust national security adviser Mike Waltz, who has lost the confidence of other administration officials, according to three people familiar with the decision.
Waltz has now resigned, per BBC, possibly for reasons connected with insecure chat groups.
It’s true that a drunk or senile drunk person could easily make better decisions than Trump. I bet someone who is both drunk and senile could do it. The question is why don’t dems just run someone who is neither? Just find anyone who is not drunk, not senile, and wont let your daughter get beat up by a boy when they play sports or encourage your son to cut their dic
I love this level of cope like Bidens team didn't carry his corpse through his term with stellar results
The post you should be making is why didn't we elect a drunk senile daughter abuser over the guy eviscerating our economy, global standing, and soft power, while simultaneously trying to regress our society by undermining law, education, and journalism.
I mean, Harris was literally none of those things so not sure what your ******ed point actually is, but it would objectively be better than what we have now, no matter what.
The whole political game got boring overnight for me.
The people I argued with for 6 months in discord before the election have all become completely apolitical. They aren't exactly admitting they were wrong, and certainly aren't admitting I was right, but they are absolutely avoiding the conversation. The same conversation they leaned into emphatically before the election they are like the Homer disappearing into the bushes meme. This is as close to admitting they were wrong as it will get.
I see here most rightys aren't even there yet. They are still wearing the mask, putting up the facade, pretending that everything is fantastic.
You can see cracks forming in the Twitter legions. There are still the relentless reply guy bots under every post, but the actual humans driving the legions are fracturing as their confidence wanes. Many crypto posters specifically, who were instrumental in getting Trump elected, are pretending like they were centrists the whole time and knew Trump was ******ed.
This isn't to say nature is healing. Nature can't heal, we have 3.75 more years of this left. But it bodes well for mid terms and 2028

There is certain cluster of traits associated with those who pursue the DA position. It's seen as a political stepping stone for ambitious types who want to cater to a certain white middle class suburban type which includes a mix of those who claim to be anti-racist but feel super uncomfortable around actual minorities and those who are on the edge of forming a lynch mob if they see a black person walking too close to the gates of their gated community. There is a lot of baggage associated with the DAs office as they typically function in the defense of ill gotten gains against any exploited people looking to get something back. When you get into a who-is-tougher-on-crime contest you're going to be acquiring a lot of rightwing stink on yourself.
In the case of Harris she took it past the normal limits. She did things like jail parents for their child's truancy. And then she cackled about it upon recollection in the charming way she does. She's just such a nauseating loaf of crap and her campaigns for and tenure as prosecutor really brought that to light.

I have very little confidence that future elections in the US will be either fair or free.

You can't govern if you don't get elected, and the Democrats' campaign was incompetent. They failed to get Biden to stand down till too late, they failed to hold primaries and it's often been said that their eventual candidate Harris would not have succeeded in primaries because she obviously wasn't electable enough.
And Biden's tenure was economically OK but hardly stellar. He was persuaded to sign up to crazy woke stuff which proved electoral poison. Few people in their right minds ever want to hear about Sam Brinton or Rachel Levine again. Or Lia Thomas for that matter. Nor do they want the body responsible for air traffic control operating a positive discrimination policy in favour of people with schizophrenia. (Schizophrenic candidates may not have been appointed ATCs -- or have they? -- but the look of such a policy is obviously bad.)

seeing the same thing over here, except irl. people that ridiculed me for never folding on voting Harris now completely silent and even joining in on Dem organized anti-Trump protests.
