A Gallery of Trump-Inspired Assholes (Part 3)

Billionaires and media pundits have been praying for a recession for the last four years, but the actual economy keeps on going. Maybe the new plan is to pretend that because Wall Street is losing faith in tech (AI) stock, that it’s a real economic crisis?

Wouldn’t be the first time they made things up out of whole cloth. Like how the economy has been terrible under Biden :confused:

Just in case the fascism isn’t clear enough, here’s a book JD Vance endorsed…

“Unhumans,” an anti-democratic screed that Posobiec co-wrote with the professional ghostwriter Joshua Lisec, comes with endorsements from some of the most influential people in Republican politics, including, most significantly, vice-presidential candidate JD Vance.

[…] The book argues that leftists don’t deserve the status of human beings — that they are, as the title says, unhumans — and that they are waging a shadow war against all that is good and decent, which will end in apocalyptic slaughter if they are not stopped. “As they are opposed to humanity itself, they place themselves outside of the category completely, in an entirely new misery-driven subdivision, the unhuman,” write Posobiec and Lisec.

As they tell it, modern progressivism is just the latest incarnation of an ancient evil dating back to the late Roman Republic and continuing through the French Revolution and Communism to today. Often, they write, “great men of means” are required to crush this scourge. The contempt for democracy in “Unhumans” is not subtle. “Our study of history has brought us to this conclusion: Democracy has never worked to protect innocents from the unhumans,” write Posobiec and Lisec.

One of their book’s heroes is the Spanish dictator Francisco Franco

Just illustrates his total arrogance

“I just wanted to check out my future plane,” Vance later told reporters, meaning that he’d travel on Air Force Two should he and Trump be elected in November.

I think Harris was right to snub him. He might’ve walked right past her outstretched hand and tried to get on the VP plane.

It wasn’t just a single rant about “childless cat ladies.” Here are 13 other times JD Vance disparaged people who “don’t have kids.”
