Diplomatic note of protest from the eukaryotic kingdoms.
“This is our racket! Know your place or we’ll school you on it.”
What are they going to do, sue them? Man, I really want to see down ballot Republicans start telling Trump’s team to go fuck themselves. A lot of the candidates he’s endorsed the last couple of years have lost. I will never understand why so many of them cower in front of this fraud and his entourage.
Even when being garbage, they find a way to be more garbage. They put garbage in their garbage. They’re onions of garbage.
It’s not Trump they’re afraid of, but his stochastic terrorist followers.
Apart from the fact that it makes everyone less safe, I have not a shred of sympathy for them. They let the tiger out of its cage and put a saddle on it. They have no place complaining about riding it.
All of this – but also:
It’s a cult. It’s not just the cartoon rednecks in red caps who are in the cult. It’s not just the grandmas with bleached blonde hair and boob jobs who are in it. It’s not just the dudebros with tactical sunglasses, F150s, and midlife crises who are in it. Almost every Republican politician, from local to federal levels, are in the cult, too.
The ones we think are smart enough not to fall for it have sworn their oaths to the cult leader years ago, and at this point should be considered absolutely loyal to the cult.

Of note, Democrats have been “upgraded” from socialists to communists. And it is using a new fundraising link that I haven’t seen before.
I am secretly wishing that it is a fellow Republican that is “fundraising” off of his coattails by sending this message and diverting funds to his personal accounts.
If I had to guess who this doppelgänger would be, my bet would be on George Santos.
Whats funny is that the president only has so much power. They can’t make laws, etc. So by hamstringing races in congress, it will further limit Republican’s power (hopefully).
i have so been waiting for that delicious addition to descriptions of tRump under your byline.
thank you for your service to the community.
Can you patent a grift?
