All those flag waving “patriots” that cheered on an insurrection and pardon of the criminals that beat up police officers, they get another way to Make America Great Again! Good job!
His worshippers will NEVER blame him. In their mind ‘he tricked the libs and is owning them.’
This is what all jihadi leaders tell their followers, as in “An instant of noise and pain as you fly into the World Trade Center, but then it’s paradise.”
More than 50 interviews with Democratic leaders revealed a party struggling to decide what it believes in, what issues to prioritize and how to confront an aggressive right-wing administration.

The problem is Kamala Harris during the campaign could have not been more clear about the danger that a second tRump term represented. Voters (or non-voters) did not seem to feel that fascism in America is much of a problem. I don’t know how the Democratic party crafts an effective coherent message that says, “we tried to tell you it would be bad” because that just sounds like scolding. How many ways can you tell someone they fucked up? In most instances the person that the message is being delivered to has to accept they made a mistake or you might as well talk to a fern. Sort of like AA where the first step is admitting you have a problem.
I saw today that the new DNC dude, Martin, said they’re going to be “progressive.” I guess. We live in sort of a mixed up timeline where favoring free trade with our neighbors is now “progressive.”
I’d sure like to hear some messaging from Democrats other than “Outrageous!” And “Illegal.” We know already that he’s outrageous, and he is a convicted felon. He was voted in anyway.
It would be comforting to know that there’s at least a strategy, though.
Now the crazy fuck is threatening South Africa for its efforts to recover from apartheid, which he says treat “certain classes of people” “very badly.”
I have never heard Trump mention South Africa before. Why the sudden interest? And which classes of people is he talking about?

My mate retired from the VA as a clinical social worker a few years ago. She had been put in charge of military sexual assault survivors as well as the TBI suffering amongst incoming veterans from the war of choice for the millennial generation. She was a devoted therapist who advised her patients in non drug sleep methods like breathing and meditation etc… She now suffers from insomnia and that dreaded waking in the night mental rumination over real or imagined threats from the dotardians. Most of it is real and unimaginable just a few months ago. Coming back from the DNC convention as a a volunteer in August she was so infused with hope. We are all looking for that ray of hope that the damage these freaks are wrecking on America will plateau soon. Hanging in there. Sitting quietly waiting for spring to arrive.
Right. Accepting relevant on the job experience is by no means a weakening of the requirements, and as you said, that also opened up opportunities to plenty of white dudes.
Impulsive decisions are often poor decisions.
That’s okay.
Our FCC is going to shut down the entire Fox tv network. The distribution of false facts, especially in support of a violent coup, is not a community service.
You oughta try and find a coherent Republican message ; - )
Trump just announced that his tariffs will cause “pain” for the American middle class but it’s okay…
Donald Trump: ‘There Has To Be Some Form Of Punishment’
… so long as there are no consequences, pain, or punishment for him.
