God is tired of waiting for DoJ.
… and far into the future.
To all the Dump-suckers who lost loved ones because they believed Dump about injecting bleach, etc:
Just know that he put pressure on health authorities to LIE about the severity of the virus because IT WOULD MAKE HIM LOOK BAD.
Hope that comforts them.

What I find infuriating is that for the most part, people who have been in communities that have historically been discriminated against in various ways tend to be more likely to believe in the ideals of this stupid country and to fight for those ideals, where as you challenge a white person who has been gifted with endless privileges and they get the slightest inconvenience, and they seem ready to embrace fascism. I can’t tell you how angry that makes me.
I can’t imagine what insight Mrs. Trump would have to offer in any field of endevour.
Just a reminder that fascists gaining less ground than they expected doesn’t mean we’ve gotten rid of all fascists.
“Trump is livid” and “screaming at everyone,” after last night’s disappointing midterm results for GOP, according to a Trump adviser.
I can’t really add to the conversation here, but…
Just a reminder that fascists gaining less ground than they expected doesn’t mean we’ve gotten rid of all fascists.
I doubt anyone here needs a reminder of that, but thanks all the same.
It’s a cover-up!
He’s proven he can do this in FL, but can he do it nationally? I’m not too sure about that.
I’m hoping he can’t. I was responding to a question about whether grifter talent is the decisive key to a fascist winning the White House. I think there are other factors.
We have to acknowledge the fact that approx. 27% of the electorate wants a fascist strongman in the White House. We also have to acknowledge that at least another 20% of the electorate is willing to go along with those Know-Nothings as long as it means the country will have a Republican President. Whichever fascist the party runs in 2024, there are a lot of tools to work the resulting thin margin in their favour. Fortunately, there’s also a lot of room for them to bungle things.
Maybe he’s going to announce you can pay 8 dollars a month to get a blue check on Trump Social.
Apparently there’s a precedent that you can break all laws, up to and including shooting someone on Fifth Avenue, and there’s no repercussions as long as you’re rich and your actions own the Libs.
$8? No, “Truth Social” is a thousand times more exclusive than bird-brained Twitter. The Official Donald Trump endorsed “Donald Trump Noticed Me!” checkmark (really more a “Donald Trump Noticed My Payment Cleared!” checkmark) costs a cool $8,000.
Sadly, based on what we’ve seen from the prosperity gospel, the I Am Rich app, and the general behavior of the Cult of Trump, there are people who would pay that much for the status symbol.
Florida has fresh shockingly-partisan gerrymandering. Hopefully that’s a major component of his win that won’t exist outside the state.
ETA: Also arresting voters with his “election police”
This. Absolutely. Too many people over too many centuries have fought for the cause of preserving, or even just earning, the right to vote. Not voting because “there’s nobody interesting running” or “it’s inconvenient” or “they’re all the same anyway” is a slap in their faces.
I have zero sympathy for people who take every opportunity they can to blather on about what’s wrong with every politician who gets elected but who won’t bother to take the time to actually register their opinion in a way that actually matters by voting.
(Sorry for the rant. I need to go chase some unicorns now to bring my blood pressure down…)
All that is spot on, so nothing to apologize for!
No more so than buying a couple of Powerball tickets and dreaming about winning.
