Just a reminder that one of the things Joe Biden is most famous for is commuting by train from D.C. to his home in Delaware while one of the things Trump is most famous for is living atop a gilded tower in Manhattan that is emblazoned with his own name.

I tuned in to see how much I could stomach and caught these two fear-mongering ghouls. Good Goddess, did they ever look deranged. Not to mention the utter disconnect from reality in what they said.

don’t they live three blocks from downtown? That’s not really suburban, it it?
A more legitimate issue is there are so many st louis suburbs, each competing to oppress those who pass by.

I just hate-watched a substantial portion of tonight’s RNC broadcast on crookedmedia.com, where the Pod Save America guys could provide real-time commentary that helped keep me somewhat sane by confirming that the various speakers really did say some of the nonsensical stuff that I thought I heard them say. Naturally I ended up rage-donating to some progressive causes mid-broadcast, so be warned.

These are the same McCloskey’s that destroyed several beehives outside of their property that belonged to a neighboring religious group? Yeah, what a bunch of freedom lovers they are. Freedom for me, not for thee.

Because there was no “mob” and the only ones out of control in that situation were you two knobs.

The problem is you couldn’t wear it ironically because there are too many who would wear it unironically.

Why the fuck are these two doing anything other than rotting in a prison cell right now??

The takeaway from this for me is that those unhinged white people were actually charged with felonies! That’s weirdly encouraging.
PS. What does “abolish suburbs” even mean?

Normally you see that one from the “Agenda 21” people; I think it’s supposed to involve forcing everyone into collectivist hive structures at the behest of the satanic UN one world government under the guise of environmental protection.
With these guys I’m guessing it’s similarly cogent but more racist in some way.

Nope and it hasn’t been for at least 75 years now. They wanna live in the burbs they need to go live in the county.
TLDR a long bit ago the farmers had a fit over property taxes and voted to make St Louis the city of a county and St. Lous County two separate things.
Of course that has bitten the county dwellers in the ass several time since.

It’s dog-whistle for “abolish de facto segregated whites-only enclaves”. The scare story about what the evil libruls have planned doesn’t have to have any basis in logic or reality, of course.

They are also tax cheats. They owe just under $25,000 for their St. Louis office building in back taxes. Why hasn’t the city gone after them? Apparently they don’t sic lawyers on you until you’re three years behind. Wonder if poor people get the same consideration?

Trump supporters may find themselves pointing guns at peaceful protesters… yeah, that checks out.

white people are so scared of black people
they bulldoze out to the country
and put up houses on little loop-dee-loop streets
and while america gets its heart cut right out of its chest
the berlin wall still runs down main street
separating east side from west
and nothing is stirring, not even a mouse
in the boarded-up stores and the broken-down houses
so they hang colorful banners off all the street lamps
just to prove they got no manners
no mercy and no sense
and i’m wondering what it will take
for my city to rise
first we admit our mistakes
then we open our eyes
the ghosts of old buildings are haunting parking lots
in the city of good neighbors that history forgot
i remember the first time i saw someone
lying on the cold street
i thought: i can’t just walk past here
this can’t just be true
but i learned by example
to just keep moving my feet
it’s amazing the things that we all learn to do
so we’re led by denial like lambs to the slaughter
serving empires of style and carbonated sugar water
and the old farm road’s a four-lane that leads to the mall
and our dreams are all guillotines waiting to fall
i’m wondering what it will take
for my country to rise
first we admit our mistakes
and then we open our eyes
or nature succumbs to one last dumb decision
and america the beautiful
is just one big subdivision

A guy wearing a Brooks Brothers polo holding a military rifle and waving his index finger around is just… bonkers.
