President Joe Biden address the nation Thursday from the White House vowing a peaceful transfer of power. He said he congratulated Donald Trump on winning the election and also spoke with Vice President Harris.
You’re old, straight, white and rich, motherfucker – YOU’RE going to be “ok.” Everyone else is fucked.
It didn’t peter out, it got co-opted and suppressed until Trump capitalized on it. This is that exact same sentiment. People can’t afford groceries and housing, that was a huge issue during the election, so yeah we’ve finally reached a breaking point where people are pissed off about inequality and showed it. Anybody still pushing neolib shit is either braindead or benefits from neofeudalism.
There were several. Why didn’t these hypothetical single-issue Trump supporters vote for Cornel West or Claudia de la Cruz if their priority is narrowing the income gap? Even Harris promised to implement at least a billionaire tax.
Because they understand just as well as we do that the way our voting system is set up means you have two options, and anything else is throwing your vote away.
Harris offered a few progressive scraps and then proudly showed off endorsements from the fucking Cheneys. People wanted real change. They’re going to get it, for better or for worse.

If people were pissed about income inequality, they’d vote for the “tax the rich” candidates. Donald Trump’s agenda is the exact opposite about that.
There was no “tax the rich” candidate this election. Failing that, people voted for change.
